Late yesterday afternoon John Tay-

family cnsisting of his wife and two
children. out for drive. The under
taking though pleasant at first soon
had n painful and serious termination,
as Mrs. Taylor and babe were thrown

very badly hurt.
While going round the park drive
way MIR. Taylor drew In

the horses drink and
got out for the purpose of letting out

Mr.. Taylor jumped back into the rig
but was Immediately thrown out with
his wife and baby. The Oldest child
continued to maintain his seat. how
ever Notwithstanding the fact that the
horse had now dashed into a terrific
run. Not knowing that his wife had
been rendered unconscious by being
thrown out and run over or that the
baby was seriously hurt Mr.. Taylor ran
across the Park as fast as possible
thinking that he might intercept the
animal on the other side. He was right
in this conclusion for he reached the
opposite side Just In time to spring to
the horse, throw his arms about his
neck and pull him In. II was difficult
and heroic act made with the full con-
seriousness that hfe was being saved.
Mr.. Taylor then hurriedly drove
around TO where his wife lay bruised,
bleeding and insensible, and where the
baby, who had received severe
abraslons about the head was being
cared for by strangers. Mother and
child were driven home and DIR. Bower

consciousness and was made as easy
as possible under the circumstances.
But her head was frightfully LAGER
ated while she also sustained painful

his opinion that the board has the

sumcd before Judge Hiles today.
The defendants called C. ]. Corey
and H. T. Snyder, members of the city
council that entered in to the contract
with John r. Boothwell, and they tes-
titled that the water supply was in
sufficient for the demands of the city in
1889; on cross examination they admit
ted that about month prior to the
making of the Boutwell, contract they
made to the city council, "a report in
writing, setting forth that the water
system was not so bad as reported. and
recommended that the city borrow
100000 or 100000. extend the old system
purchase additional water and retain
the system for the city.
Thomas A. Whalen was also
called but knew but little of
value. J.. Il. Coolidge, street
supervisor said the pipes were all
right but the supply OF water was in
sufficient. c. l.. Stevenson testified
he made measurement OF the water
