yesterday, a ranch team belonging to Col
McNasser became frightened and entered
upon a runaway from in front of w. R

ftIriously, but, though that thoroughfare

lisions until at Fifth street, King Bros. de-
livery wagon was struck, and its rear axle
broken, while Mr. King, who was driving,
was thrown to the pavement and suffered
considerable injury to one of his legs. His
horse started of for a runaway on his own
account, but ran into a coupe belonging to
Wilson IL Mitchell, and was stopped. The
coupe had n spring broken and was some
what scratched. The original runaways
had, meanwhile, kept on their way, and at
Seventh street their vehicle locked wheels
with another, and opportunity was afforded

little injury, but the Colonel informed the
