In Omaha the other day street car was
passing uiluoI Illo flduucG ONtr WHICH
the Union Pacific trains pass, when a
farmers team, which had evidently
been frightened, came tearing down at
a rapid rate and struck the car. A
lady jumped up and screamed, and well
she might, for the frightened animals
had become loosened by the collision
with the car. The pole of The wagon
came through the doorway and would
doubtless have injured her badly but
for the thing of springs she wore that
saved her from harm. The hustle was
wrecked and so was the car, but not an
inch of skin was scratched.
