Boy Held the Lines Through an Ex-
citing Runaway.
Charlie Anderson, boy IN the employ
Of Taylor's livery barn, was the young
hero Of runaway yesterday. He was
driving one of the rigs Of the barn when
the horse became scared on East Doug
las avenue and ran away. The boy
swung to the lines with all his might,
guiding the horses out of the way OF
pedestrians and vehicles. At one
place the rear wheel was knocked off, and
the end Of the axel fell to the ground.
The horse continued his wild race, turn
ing the corner Of Market street and
Douglas avenue without accident. Just
as the boy pulled the horse into the barn
on Market street, both rear wheels went
down. The buggy, having been almost
completely demolished, Young Anderson
was still swinging on the lines when the
wreck landed in the barn.
