the lady, who led, but had little expert
cnce in riding and was therefore pro-
ceeding carefully. All Of sudden
there seemed to spring out of the road
directly in front of them black OBJ
ject, which bore down on them with
the speed Of a meteor, and, notwith-
standing warning enough to turn a To-
connective from it's course, rushed on
like wild bull The result was bad
ly damaged knee for the lady and &,
few bruises and wrecked machine for
the gentleman. They congratulate
themselves on their lucky escape, and
are deeply grateful to the parties re-
siding on Townsend avenue who rem
dered such timely and generous assist
ance. 1t is to be hoped that the scorch-
er has cause to remember the affair for
a. few days at least.
