A NARROW ESCAPE.
There Came Near Being An
other Vacant Chair in
Council.
Councilman Mousley Was &.aeown
From a Darby Car and in Immi-
nent Danger of Being
Crushed by Wheels.
Clothing Torn.

Prince A. Mnusley, Counci man of the
Ninth ward made d hairs breadth es.
cape from death under tie wheels of a
Darby car at Market street and Concord
avenue, inst IN front of his cigar store.
He had motioned to the conductor of a
Darby car TO slack up for him. The car
was only partially stopped, aud the
counciImen tried to get upan the car but
he lost the grip Of his right hard on the
hand bar Of the car and vas dashsS to
the street.
He bounced about four feet in the air
and was in imminent danger OF rolling
under the car wheels. He is somewhat
OF an athlete and managed to roll away
from the wheels.
He had on his best suit of clothes and
these were ruined. As be arose from the
street he looked as if he had gone through
threshing machine. He was severely
bruised about the body.
As he gazed ON Councilman Groves
vacant chair in the Council chamber
last night he fully realized how near he
had come to death as violent as Grovesr.
He said he lost his grip on the car be-
cause it was going too fast.
He said cars were being run at too
rapid rate through Brandywine village,
resulting in many accidents. Darby cars,
he claims, frequently refuse to stop to
take on passengers. He has consulted
the law and asserts that when be finds
car going at too fast rate he will have
the conductor arrested for violating a
city ordinance.
