RATHER MIRACULOUS ESCAPE.

Prominent Young Man at Hamilton Thrown Under a Plow.

Franklin Page, aged 16, son of Wm. Page at Hamilton, N. D., met with a painful accident on Tuesday. He was riding a sulky plow, when the team became frightened and ran away. Young Page's horse took fright, and becoming entangled in the lines he was thrown to the ground and trampled upon by the first team. The lad sustained two fractures of the left leg, had his shoulder badly bruised and his face disfigured. It is considered almost miraculous that he was not killed as both teams were hitched to plows.
