JAMES BURKE INJURED.
Old Man Struck by Runaway Horse
Last EVENING.

With severe cash just over his
right eye and a deep cut in his left
thigh, James Burke, an aged man, was
carried into his home on West Second
street last evening, in an unconscious
condition as the result of injuries re-
ceived from being struck by a runaway
horse which was hitched to a light
spring wagon and driven by two small
boys. The boys were thrown from the
wagon when it struck post and was
overturned little west of Peck's liv-
cry barn, but escaped without being
seriously injured. The wagon was but
slightly damaged and after repairing
a few slight breaks in the shafts the
boys proceeded on their way.
The Runaway.
The cause of the runaway is I'M
known but it is supposed that the
boys, who were driving along Second
street, lost control of the horse when
in the vicinity of Court street, and it
proceeded west along that street until
stopped by its collision with post.
