A NARROW ESCAPE.
Woman Thrown Under Horses Heels at
Evergreen Cemetery-Supt. FlOyd's Time
ly Rescue.

Superintendent Floyd Of Evergreen
Cemetery, had little experience q day
or two ago that came very near resulting
fatally for the parties most concerned.
Mr.. Floyd noticed q well dressed man
and woman driving about the grounds
with spirited horss hitohed in a top
phaeton. The couple had evidently been
INDUCING In more of the ard emit than
was good for them, for the man was bad
ly Intoxicated, although the woman was
apparently quite sober. AS the couple
were driving about in reckless fashion,
Mr.. FLOYD jumped into his team and
started to head them off and eject them
from the grounds. just as he turned in
to one of the cross roads he saw the team
stop and the woman lean out of the
carriage and yainly struggle to reach a
large bunch of honeysuckle growing on
one of the lots.
Not succeeding in the attempt she put
one foot on the step of the carriage and
was just reaching for the coveted flowers
when the horse suddenly started, and be-
| fore the woman could hand the reins to
her companion, who was in too
| muddled condition to realize the situa-
ton, she was thrown partly out of the
carriage. her foot catching in the reins as
| she fell.
Superintendent Floyd had by this time
reached the scene and hastily springing
| from his team he caught the now
| thoroughly frightened animal by the bits
x.xs% r;ol - a. 20
catch the woman. The man made a
| feeble effort but was unsuccessful. The
woman was thrown from the carriage
| directly between the front wheel and the
horses heels, the heel being directly
| against the woman's breast.
The horse was rearing and plunging all
| the time and it looked as IL the woman
would be crushed to pieces by his heels,
as the lower part of her body was direct
~ behind the animab Mr.. Floyd by an
almost superhuman effort threw th c
animal back on his launches and held
him there at the same time comman ding
| the man to get out of the carriage and
drag the WON an from her perilous
position, from which she could not move,
the reins on her foot holding her fast.
The man seemed utterly dazed-and help
| less, and made no move to assist, but
Mr.. Floyd finally succeeded in quietine
the animal, and still keeping tight
hold on both reins he worked one hand
along tie horse's back, and reaching
down with the other hand, caught the
woman by her garments and dragged hel
out of danger. The woman escaped with
bad fright and some slight bruises, hel
clothes being nearly torn from her back.
Mr.. Floyd said it was one of the mar
rowest escapes he ever saw for If the
horse had not been caught and held rrn
ly just in time, the woman could moi
have possibly escaped being crushed ant
probably dragged to death by thu
frightened animal.
The woman was assisted back into thu
carriage by Mr.. Floyd, and the couple
were then ordered to leave the grounds
which they did at once by the shortes
road.
