ing while out buggy riding. Miss Nc

driving and when in front of the Jack
man block on West Milwaukee street
their buggy came in contact with anoth-
or buggy which had stopped suddenly.

ran up onto the rear axle of the buggy
ahead of them. AS the rig careened to
one side and cramped the wheel, Miss
McGiffin jumped out and fell between
the wheels. Her fall so frightened her
that she tainted away. She was removed
from under the buggy by by-standers
and carried into the drug store of the
Peoples Drug company where she soon
recovered from the shock and was able
to go to her home.

ter, thence to Delayan, Delavan lake,
Elkhorn and Lake Geneva. If franchises
can be secured work will begin at once
and it is hoped that work will be done
on the line this fall. There is plenty of
capital behind the proposed road.
