sTfPOPULAR LADY.
H prses Drowned.

A large Ind interested crowd of spec
tators were gathered during the early
part of the forenoon today on the river
bank in the NJ. & w. r. r. II. Co., yard
TO witness the process of removing a
pair of horses and dump cart from the
water.
The horsps belonged to Fred Crockett
and were valued at $3.50 Mr.. Crockett
was dumping snow into the river jus,
above the Prospect street bridge. The
team was backed up to the bank and one
of the wheels held by n large stone
which looked substantial enough but
unfortunately its appearance was decep-
tive and suddenly, almost before Mr.
Crockett realized what had happened
the cart, horses and all We're bobbing up
and down in the swift running curren'
of the swollen stream, the horses striving
frantically to eXtricate themselves
Assistance however was impossible anu
away they went swiftly down the stream
to the railroad bridge where rope was
tied to one Of the wheels and an attempt
made to dag them out. The rope
snapped and away thcy went again
down the Stream until they came to
shallow waer back of the Reynolds
block wheretbey stopped. The horses
were dead probably before they come to
the first bridge.
Many plans were discussed for ex-
Treating them from the water until at
last Clarence Rich waded into the stream
and fasteneda rope to the front wheel
and the horses and cart were drawn out.
