Mrs. Ebb Youngblood, residing southeast of Kingman, met with a painful accident last Friday evening, says the Kingman Star. Mr. Youngblood has several cows, some of them with calves by their side. The cows were all in the milking pen, and after allowing the calves their usual allotment of the evening’s milk, Mrs. Youngblood drove them from their mothers’ sides into an adjoining pen and sat down to begin milking. She noticed a cow behind her, but paid no attention, as it had always been her custom to milk when they were all in the pen. Presently she was attacked by the cow that was standing behind. This cow had not been dehorned and she struck her in the side with her horns, breaking two ribs and throwing her violently to the ground. This seemed to madden all the cows and the one she was milking, which was dehorn ed but had a heavy stub of the horn yet left, turned and struck the poor woman above the left eye,making an ugly wound. As it happened, Mrs. Youngblood was near the bars and succeeded in catching hold of them and pulling herself on the outside of the fat. Mrs. Youngblood related after wards that when she made her escape under the bars, every cow in the lot was standing facing her, and seemed to be in a mad fit, as if they would all leap upon her at any minute.
