Last evening as the two little chill
dren OF Fred Shaw were crossing DOL
aware street at sixth, his little two
year old son Fred f6ll. His little ais
ter was trying TO raise him up when
she aaw q carriage coming down the
street and she ran AWAY leaving the
child lying there. The carriage con-
tanned q young lady and gentleman
and the driver did not SEQ the child.
Fortunately the team was going very
slowly at the time and just as the
wheel OF the carriage was about to
pass over Fred's stomach, the lady saw
him and quickly caught the lines and
turned the horses head away. BY SO
| might have proved fatal.
The wheel bruised the little fellows
leg above the knee. The team was
relgned in and the couple called at
| the residence OF the cEild's parents and
| expressed their regret for what had
happened. Strange to say the same
team had gone only two squares fur
| Their when ut Murrayville little tot
was sitting In the middle OF the street
and ngain presence OF mind and slow
driving saved another accident.
Much complaint has been made OF
| furious driving which some parties In.
duige in on Fifth street to the danger
\ OF lives of children especially and the
| police should arrest the driver OF any
team which goes at an immoderate
rate through the city no matter who
he is.
