There WAS rather exciting runaway
"a Water street, Thursday morning
Til" horse started on the top Of ttines
hill and made wild dash down the
hill and the whole length Of Water
street. AT the foot Of the hill the team
collided With q light express wagon.
It looked for moment as if there
would he trouble for someone, but the
two teams separated all right. and the
frightened horse continued his run
With one hill hanging and swinging
il Il threatening manner. The teams
on the street were not particular
about disputing the right of way. and
made a clear path down through. The
runaway took the car track and hac
things all his own way. Many tried y
stop him. but no one succeeded until ne
had had his run out. He was finally
captured near the gas house. The rig
was not much damaged. Parts Of the
harness were broken, but only slight
repairs will be necessary. The team
belonged to John Fuller. The wagon
with which the runaway oollided on
the Hill was not much damaged.
