Dashed Against a House and WAS
Fatally Injured.
Lewis Fell. son OF Samuel 4. Fell Of
the hardware firm Of Fell g. Peoples,
hardware merchants ct No. 507 Market
street, met with an exciting runaway
about O'clock Sunday afternoon. Hs
was driving out Market street when the
horse became frightened AT an electric
car between Twelfth and Thirteenth
streets. Young Fell thsn wheelei the
horse around and drove up Market street
in order to avoid the returning car. Wit
nesses said that the horse was uuder full
control at Twelfth street when Fell began
to strike it with his whip. The animal
had by this time turned down Twelfth
street and thoroughly frightened it
started off down Twelfth street at
mad gallop. It ran into the curb sur
rounding the park in the middle Of the
street and upset the vehicle, throwing
Fell to the ground.
The demolished vehicle with the ex-
ception of the two front wheels, was left
lodged to tree. The horse continued
down Twelfth street in his mad career,
dragging the two front wheels back of
him. At King street, he went on the
southern sidewalk and then starting dag
onally aoross the street, be galloped down
the hill at pace that made the specta'
tors hair stand on end. The animal was
now thor ouehly bewildered and evidently
did not know whore it was going. II
dashed across French street directly
toward the two-story brick house Mt the
northeast corner of Twelfth anu French.
At the curb it stumbled and falling
across the sidewalk, was brought to a
full stop by striking its head against the
corner of the house, almost dashing out
| its brains. II was stunned OF first, but
soon regaining consciousness looked up
with mute appeal to the crowd which
had gathered around. DR.. H. p. Ewes
was tslephoned for and on arriving soon
determined that the horses death was
merely matter of very little time, SO
serious were its injuries. He then bled
the animal to death, the sooner to end its
| misery.
Mr.. Fell, on being thrown out of the
carriage, had his head out and was &C.
verely bruised. He suffered very much
from the shock and had to be taken in d
carriage to his home, No. 1926 West
Fourth strsst The horse was valuabla
snimal and Mr. Fsli refused $3.50 for it
only a few days ago. Tue carriage was
worth about 5000.
