THROWN FROM THE WAGON
 
An Aged Couple From West Webster Injured in a Runaway Accident
 
Mr. and Mrs. William EICHELBERG, of West Webster, were thrown from their wagon in the city yesterday morning and were seriously hurt. They were peddling potatoes and berries in the eastern part of the city, and when they attempted to drive across the bridge over the railway tracks at East Main street the horse became frightened and began to run. The animal could not be controlled by Mr. EICHELBERG, who is over 60 years of age, and it ran into a telegraph pole at the foot of the hill leading to the bridge. Both occupants of the wagon were thrown violently to the ground. Mrs. EICHELBERG was hurled against the pole so that her nose was fractured and her right wrist was broken. Mr. EICHELBERG was injured about the head, shoulders and hips.
     Dr. H. B. HOWELL gave the sufferers immediate surgical attendance, and Patrolman MOHR conveyed them to the City Hospital in the ambulance. It was necessary to remove pieces of the splintered bone from Mrs. EICHELBERG's nose, and she will probably be disfigured for life.

In the Surrogate's Court this morning the will of Zacheus COLBY was admitted to probate.  He leaves $4,000 to his daughter, A. Jeanette ROWE of Greece: cancels promissory notes to the value of $5,000 held against his son, Zacheus, Jr. of Spokane Falls and makes his son, Charles COLBY, residuary legatee.  Letters of administration were issued on the estate of Simon OLEY, Mary Ann DALZELL, W.C. DALZELL and Anna RENDSLAND.  A decree of judicial settlements was granted on the estate of Robert ENGLISH. 

Judge DAVY held open the motion of yesterday that there be a jury trial in the case of Richard MILLER and others against George W. MILLER and others until certain defendants, now in Europe, are served with notices.  The defendant is a New Yorker who inherited from his father, Andrew MILLER, a former Rochesterian, property valued at $100,000 to $150,000.  The plaintiffs are children of the late James M. MILLER, a brother of the defendant George, and who was left half the property by the will.  The family never recognized the marriage of James to Margaret BELL, a servant girl, and when the will was probated served no citations on her children.  The defense claims that the children were illegitimate.  psm
