AN EXCITING RUNAWAY.
Two Ladies Badly Injured Out at
Oak Park,
Crazy Horse. an Overloaded Cart
and an Electric Car Cause
Bad Accident.

An accident which might easily have
been attended with fatal consequences
occurred about O'Clock yesterday after
| noon at Oak Park. at the crossing OF
Magnolia avenue and the electric railway.
Mrs. J. F. Gilmore and her sister-in-
law, Mrs. Elizabeth Kennedy, accom-
panied by their two young sons, were out
for drive In light cart. The horse
they were driving belonged to Mr.. Gill
more. 1t was young animal, but con-
sidered reliable. The horse, however,
suddenly took fright at the approach OF
an electric car and became unmanageable.
1t seems that Mrs. Gilmore attempted
to cross either Immediately in the ad-
vance OF the car or got too close to the
track before stopping the horse. At any
rate, the animal became wild with fright,
crossed over the track, and after running
short distance overturned the frail
vehicle. throwing out all the party with
great force into gully or dug-out by the
side of the road.
Mrs. Kennedy had her collar-bone
broken, and both boys received painful
but not dangerous injuries, while Mrs.
Gilmore was picket up in an insensible
condition. 1t is feared she may have sus-
tanned serious internal injuries, besides
oeing badly cut and bruised.
There were a number Of people in the
vicinity, including those in the ca, who
witnessed the accident, and all expected
to find that most of the persons thrown
from the cart were killed.
Mr.. Gilmore and Mr.. Kennedy, who
were sitting on the porch of the Gilmore
house, some two hundred yards from
where the accident took place, ran TO
their wives and children as soon as pos
sible.
A singular feature of the disaster was
that the horse seemed 10 have become
craZed, and after running trantically
turned and ran over the PROSTATE form
of Mrs. Gilmore the second time before
the excited crowd could remove her from
where she was thrown.
After that the animal fell once or twice,
recovered himself, and after another fran
tic bound or two collIded with trolley
pole and fell upon his back, entangled in
the wreck of the cart and harness.
The accident occurred near the resi-
dence of DR.. w. Z. Wizard, whittier the
Injured parties were removed. The doc
tor was in the vicinity and promptly at
tended to the sufferers.
1t was some time before Mrs. Gilmore
recovered consciousness, and even then
she could not clearly comprehend the ex-
tent of her injuries, nor explain anything
about the accident.
The doctor believed, however, that
none of the party were dangerously hurt,
and that beyond the external injuries and
the breaking of Mrs. Kennedy's collar
bone, they all had miraculous escape.

Indigestion, followed by a headache last

ENERGETIC THIEVES.
A Number Of Unsuccessful Attempts
at Burglary.
Houses Entered Without TroubIe-The
Police Think They Have One
of the Burglars.

Burglars attempted to enter the resi-
dence of Supervisor J. NJ. Morrison, at
1872 street, at an early hour on Satur-
day morning. They were engaged in an
effort to pry open rear window with a
jimmy when interrupted by the bark
ing of dog, which aroused the neigh
borhood.
The thieves made off without having
entered the house by running through
the premises of Adam Damn next door.
Later it was found that the providers
had been in Mr.. Damm's cellar, and that
they had been at several of the windows
at both houses. They used candles. and
the grease dripping from the candles was
found in several places. They searched
DamIn's cellar, but only indulged in a
few drinks of vinegar. apparently.
The work was thought to be that of
boys, but about the same hour yesterday
morning they returned to Damm'S house
and made another attempt.
They were again frightened off by max
ing disturbance, and woman saw one
of them as he escaped through vacant
lot. She described hum as being a very
| tall, slim man, who appeared to be
dressed in black clothing.

The Wittenb brock residence, in the
same block, was also entered bv pre-
sumably the same burglars who were in
MorrisOn's and Damm's premises. 1t
could not be ascertained that anything
was taken, however, and the prowlers
evidently went away without getting
anything.
On Friday night burglars gained an en-
! trance to the residence OF William Schaw,
ll2l q street. They got into the cellar
and thence made their way by d stair TO
the dining room. They ransacked a por-
| ton of the house, but were frightened

sist his mania and reached for all the fe-
male pedestrians he passed
He was either crazy or feigned being
SO, saying he was born 5000 years ago,
that he lived in the sky, and that though
the officers might cut his throat or put
him in Jail, he would live on and on to
the end OF time. He regarded all the Of
ficers as sons of his.
