REDLANDs, July 2.-It seems as
though runaway horses were about
to commence their treacherous op-
erations once more in this quiet
little city, and within the last two or
three days they have been numerous.
This evening at 8 80, as Mrs. G. B. Mas
ten was sitting in her buggy while her
husband was in the store of Dutton &
Edwards, her horse became frightened
and started out ON an unmanageable
tear. He headed for the sidewalk at the
side entrance of the Sloan house, and
after going over several piles of building
rubbish the buggy was upset and the
lady thrown violently to the ground, but
luckily her head struck foremost into a
pile of sand. The horse in attempting
to loosen himeelf kicked her several
times as she lay in helpless condition..
and had 1T not been for the hasty assist
ance OF her husband and a number of
other gentlemen she would probably
have been fatally hurt. She was imme-
diately taken to her home in carriage,
and DR.. Hill has taken charge of the
unfortunate patient. Mrs. Masten, who
is most popular woman, has been an
invalid for several weeks, and her many
friends are greatly excited over the Sc
we're shock which she has received. At
this writing the HERALD man was un-
able to learn the condition of the lady,
but it is hoped that speedy recovery
awaits her.
