A Curious Accident.
Last Sunday Charley Taylor, the well
known oyster and fish dealer, met with a
curious accident, which nearly cost him
his life. In company with Mr.. John
Dieringer, the popular barber, he went out
to the County Farm, on the Bethany pike,
to look after a favorite mare which had
lately given birth to colt, and as was his
custom, called to the mare to come and
kiss him. The mare at first came and did
as r. quested. Mr.. Taylor then called to
her to repeat the performance, when, for
some unknown cause. she threw back her
ears and jumped right at him, her upper
teeth striking him just above the right
eye, and the lower teeth catching him on
the neck The force of the blow knocked
him several feet away, to which fact he
probably owes his life, as the horse would
have killed him if he had been on the side
nearest the fence. Mr.. Taylor is recover
ing, although his face presents terrible
appearance.
A Good Suggestion
To the Editor Of the Register:
SIR:-Permit me through your columns
to call the attention of our City Council to
the necessity Of having on our streets more
watering places for watering horses than
we now have. There are but three foun-
tains in our entire city at which horses can
slack their thirst in this intensely hot
weather, and they are located in the
Second, Third aud Fifth wards The ones
which until this summer were in the
First and Eighth wards were removed by
the Water Board for come reason unknown
to man or beast A citizen living above
Eleventh street, or below Twenty-sscond,
west of Market or east of Chapline, wish
ing to water his horse is compelled to 20
out of his way to do 50. To the teamster,
to whom time is money, this is heavy
| tax.
Will not some member of Council, at the
next meeting, offer for adoption rssolu-
ton, ordering the Water Board to place
stone or icoOden troaghs in the Fifth,
Seventh, Fourth, Sixth and Eighth
wards? These troughs should be large
enough for two horses to drink at at once.
The troughs are suggested, as experience
has shown that the cast iron fountains now
in use are not success. The bowl on the
one at the Second ward market house is
