Providence, was knocked over yesterday
afternoon bya runaway team belonging
20 James Willie the Plark Place sewing
machine dealer. The team of Mr.. Wills
was standing at the corner OF Dexter and
Central streets and Mr.. Wills had Just
taken hold OF the scat OF his democrat
wagon to get into II, when the seat few
up and startled the horse, who started on
a run, throwing Mr.. Wills on his back.
Tho horse ran as far the corner OF Rich
ardson street, when he came In contact
with the team of the peddlsr and threw
the Ieddler into the street, injuring the
muscles 'of his back on the right side
quite severely. Bystanders picked him
up and carried him into grocery store on
the corner, where be was attended by
DR.. Daniel II. Sullivan, whose services
had been secured by the owner OF the
runaway team.
The injured man was carried to his
home, 80 Summer street, Providence, ac-
coinpanied by the physician. Mr.. Wills
had some new wheels put on tho fish cart
and had man carry that home also. The
physician thinks that the man will be
able to attend to business againin q week
somewhat the victim OF Kindness, owing
to the fact that he had been talked into
trying bride without blinders by an en-
thusiastic woman who presented him
with q copy Of "Black Beauty" He had
just put tho bride on that morning. He
thinks that II the horse had been har-
messed as usual that he would not have
been frightened. The horse has always
been considered perfectly gentle one,
never having run away before.
Another Screen Law Breaker.
Chief Goldsmith had another dealer in
court this morning for evading the pro-
visions Of the screen law. This time 1t
was Owen Byrnes, who keeps q saloon at
16 Richardson street. He paid twenty and
costs. This Is the third one fined recently
for the same thing, and there are said to
be still more to follow. Dealers had bet
ter go to studying the provisions of the
law they are licensed under, as ignorance
OF the law does not help their case at all
when they are put on trial.
Common Council.
The first regular meeting of the Com
mon Council was held last evening under
the new ordinance. At the calling Of the
ts
The amended ordinance appropriating

Board OF Assessors was laid on the table
until the next meeting.
The amended ordinance relating to the
Fire Department from the Aldermen was
read to be one chief, one assistant and SIX
full paid men and not more than SO call

change OF doing away with the second as.

These call men, however, will probably
not be put on until needed.
