all sorts of athletic sports INDUCED in,
after which Landlord Smith did his part

the hungry excursionists.

VERY CLEvERLY DONE,
A Wild Runaway stopped by e
Bridge Tender futile Yesterday.

A Wild Runaway stopped by Ex-
Bridge Tender Tuttle Yesterday.
A very clever stop of a runaway horse
was made on Grand avenue yesterday.
The hero is Edward Tuttle, formerly
bridge tender of the Quinnipiac draw
bridge, but now employed by s. D.
Bradley & Co.. the Fair Haven feed
merchants.
About 10 o'clock yesterday morning as
futile was coming along Grand avenue
from Fair Haven with his team he saw the
horse of R. q. Davis the grain dealer of
Grand avenue, attached to heavy truck
dash into Grand avenue from East street
and come almost directly towards him.
Tuttle saw tho great peril in which the
infuriatedj animal was likely to place
several teams on the avenue. He turned
his horse so that he went in
the same direction as the runa-
way. As the runaway came even with
him he jumped from his own wagon to the
truck and Selling the lines brought the
frightened horse to standstill. His own
horse did not stir, as it is very quiet and
peaceable animal. The performance
brought forth much praise. for the action,
which required plenty Of nerve and pres
ence of mind. It was very clever act.

SISTER LOU DIDN'T WALK.
A Large Crowd Views a Tight-Rop
Exhibition on the Cream

A Large Crowd Views a Tight-Rope
Exhibition on the Green.
It was circulated around through the
city yesterday that at half-past six George
w. Leslie and his sister Lou of Whining
ton would give an exhibition of tight-1ope
walking. At the appointed time large
crowd fill d the green, focusing about
rope which was stretched from the liberty
pole to tree in front of Center church.
Some one cut one of the guide ropes and
| the performance was delayed for some
time. At length Lsslie climbed to the
rope, fully fifty feet above the people be-
low, and gave very good exhibition of
tight-rope walking. He turned about on
the rope, walked across it with his
feet tied, and did other diff
cult feats. In the meantime
"Sister Lou" was passing around the hat.
| When Leslle's part was finished, he an
nounced that, if enough money was con-
tributed, he would carry a child across
and his sister would perform on the rope.
He passed. around his hat too, and then
though the contribution seemed to have
been very generous, he said that unless S
more was contributed his sister WOULDN'T
give an exhibition. It was then getting
pretty late and in short "Sister Lou
didn't walk. The exhibition. on the par
of Leslie was very good. The crowt
didn't seem to fancy the non appearance,
of Miss Lou and gave vent to considerable
grumbling, in view of the fact that tn
second contribution had failed to produc
