HORSE AND MAN DOWN A WELL.------Last Sunday Herman Kline while at the farm of Mrs. Mike Haley in Baldwin met with a most peculiar accident, and one that in nine cases out of ten would result in injury or death. The team was standing near the well, and one of the horses in some manner got its hind feet into the well and was in great danger of going down. Mr.  Kline got hold of the horse’s head and held him while others assisted in unhitching the team. The horse was no sooner loosened than he slid backwards down the well, twenty-five feet deep, and Mr. Kline holding on like grim death pitched downwards on top of the horse. The horse was held in an up-right position by the pipe. Kline was quickly pulled out and efforts were at once made to get the horse out. A derrick was secured and with blocks and tackle the animal was safely brought to the top of the well and restored to terra firm with hardly a scratch. The Princeton Union Thursday May 8, 1902

TRIED TO ATTEMPT SUICIDE----Last Thursday afternoon the wife of Wm. Brown, Jr., who lives on a farm down in Baldwin, attempted to commit suicide by taking belladonna, but the poison failed to prove fatal. After dinner Mr. Brown had left the house and gone out to attend to his farm work, and some time thereafter Mrs.  Brown swallowed what she said was about a tablespoonful of belladonna.  There was no one at the house at the time, but her brother-in-law came to the house soon afterwards and Mrs.  Brown informed him what she had done, stating that the poison had not had time to act and that she had taken it with the intention of committing suicide. A message came to Princeton late in the evening for a doctor and Dr. Caley went down. He found the woman had almost recovered from the effects of the poison. Mrs. Brown it is said has been in poor health some time and had become depressed in spirits. She is a young woman between thirty and forty years of age. The Princeton Union Thursday May 8, 1902
