PASADENA, Oct. 2S.--As the 10: 80 bus,
loaded with passengers, WAS returning
from the social given by the ladies oi
the Univerealst church last evening, at
the home Of Miss Bartlett, on Arroyo
View drive, the team became unman-
ageable and ran away despite the efforts
OF the driver, Elmer Southwick, to stop
them.
The team started to run down Ken
sington place, turning on Vernon and
crossing the Terminal track on Mary
street. When Pasadena avenue was
reached they turned south with sharp
curve that overturned the heavy vehicle,
throwing the occupants to the ground,
when they were fortunately stopped
before more damage WAS done.
Several of the passengers were seri-
ously injured and they were all severely
shaken up. Miss Flora Conger was the
most unfortunate, breaking her ankle
and having one finger severely cut. Mr..
J. s. Glasscock had his left shoulder
thrown out of place. Mrs. Ward
jumped out before the carriage over
turned. and was picked up insensible,
but recovered later. She sustained
painful but not dangerous bruises.
The driver was thrown from his seat
when the railroad track was crossed,
but fortunately escaped with no broken
bones.
Mrs. Failor, sister of Mr.. Swerdfiger,
was quite severely bruised about the
head and shoulders.
The other passengers received scratches
and bruises, but none Of them serious.
The driver states that ON account OF
IL T. 81, !, h,,,n k,a
was unable to get his foot on the brake,
and prevent the hack from running
upon the horses.
Had it not been for Mr.. Tom Morri-
son who fortunately happened along
and stopped the team after the hack had
turned over, the damage to life and
limb would have been appalling, and it
was bad enough as it was.
The injured people were at once taken
care of, and are reported as doing very
nicely.
