a RunawRy.

On the way to the fire last night,
Mr.. Carr, driver of the new hose car
riage, in making the short cut between
Thompson's theatre and Orr's new
building, was thrown from his seat In
going over the rough ground and re-
ceived severe cut in the calf of the
leg. The mare attached to the cart on
reaching the street, turned to the right
in the direction OF the engine house,
the hose trailing of the reel as she ran.
AS the nag neared the engine-house
she was received with an enthusiastic
yell by crowd on the way to the fire.
This scared the animal and she
then ran. rapidly around Commerce into
Lamar, and went at a lively pace In
the direction Of the Pacific depot,
where she was stopped. Notwithstand-
ing this runaway the hose company
had hose attached to a plug and a
stream OF water on the fire In good
time.
