 In the despair of her thrilling situation Miss Howe made an intellectual attemDt to guide the horse around the street hack.
 Hundreds of persons witnessed the col lision. When the flying phaeton struck the hack the three horses fell heavily to the pavement and struggled helplessly. The shafts of the phaeton were demol- ished and the tongue and front part of the street hack were torn away.
 Miss Howe with amazing composure seeing the collision was inevitable, nerved herself for the shock, and was not thrown from the vehicle
 Hundreds of men rushed to her assist ance and. Elliott Hannon helped her to alight from the phaeton. accompanying her quickly to the drug store of Wade Mac Bryde on the Avenue.
 She was almost prostrated by the or deal through which she had passed, but was soon revived by physicians who ten dered their services.
 When Mss Howe had fulIy recovered from the shock she was assisted into the waiting surrey of Mir. and Mrs J. L. Hall and was driven to the home of her parents Mir. and Mrs, Thomas Howe. 800 Adams Street

 They came, the Georgians, upon an cN- cursion over the Plant system and con stituted one of the largest parues ot the sort that ever visited Montgomery.

BOARD OF REVENUE
CAToMA AND BALL CREEK
 BRIDGE CONTRACTS LET.
Sellers and Keener Will Build the First at Fifty Cents a Foot and A. B. Colquitt
 the Last.


 The Board of Revenue of Montgomery at its meeting yesterday awarded the con- tract for the building of a bridge over Catoma Creek, to Sellers X Keener. and one for the bridge over Ball Creek in the lower part of the county, to A. B. Colquitt.
 The bidding for the Catoma Swamp contract was especially spirited, no less than six bids being submitted to the Board. ~
 This contract is for the erection of 6SO feet of bridging. It is to be in two parts about half at one end of the swamp and about half at the other.
 Between the two bridges the road will be thrown up to a height of from six to eight feet
 The road and the bridging is to be put | in to make strong and safe d pit of road | about half a mile in length that has given | trouble at every rain since the county was first settled.
 | Sellers X Keener offered to build the | bridge with piling for 50 cents lineal foot It was the unanimous opinion of the members of the Board that the bid was good bargain, and it was much less than any other bid submitted to the Board.
 There was also several bids submit ted to the Board for the building of the bridge over Ball Creek, which is to be fifty fet in length. The bid of A. B. Col qutt to build 1t for DO cents lineal foot, he to furnish the material, was less than any other.
 | Mr Sabel of Sabel Sons appeared be- ! fore the Board and asked that payment 1 be made on his account against the coun- | ty. His firm last November sold the coun- ty s1,4 ,475 worth of boilers which were to be used at small streams in lieu of bridges. | At that time the county's financial ditfi- culties were greater than they are now. and the firm agreed. to wait until condi- tions improved
 l MT. Sabel explained that no payment | had been made since the transaction. and he thought that thes county might at l leust Hquidate part of she debt He asl;ed that he be paid s1,O0o. agreeing to wait longer for the remainder of the bill.
 MT. Brown of the Board said the ac- count had been contracted by the old | members of the Board and he would let | them settle it among themselves. | Mr. Carter said that he gladly accepted his share of the responsibility for the transaction, and he was proud of it. IF | declared that the trade had been a good one for the county. The boilers had been
 tried and they had been found most ef-
 fective and much money had been saved
 that would have been otherwise expended
 in making continued repairs on small
 bridges. He moved that $1,0OO of the debt
 be paid. which was done.
 County Engineer Garrett. upon the re-
 quest of the Board for his opinion, said
 that the substitution of boilers for small
 bridges had proved advantageous. MT
 Garrett said that 100 of these boilers hat
 been placed and in but few instances tho
 change had been decidedly a good one.
 The Board then adjourned after a sho-
 session.

THRILLING RUNAWAY MISS ANNIE MAY HowE's RE
 VARIABLE ESCAPE. Avoided Serious Injury and Possible Death by Exercising Great
 Presence of Mind-Two
 r Vehicles Smashed.

By displaying remarkable courage in the face of imminent danger. Miss Annie May Howe, after participating in a thrill ing runaway at ' o'clock yesterday af- ternoon. saved herself from serious in- jury if not instant death.
 About twilight Miss Howe. as is her daily custom. was driving a spirited horse attached to a low phaeton. She was going north on South Perry Street.
 At High Street an automobile, moving rapidly south. passed the phaeton.
 The horse driven by Miss Howe. unac- customed to the horseless carriage, prick ed up his ears and lunged forward, In a second the animal was dashing madly down the hill in the direction of Dexter Avenue.
 With fine presence of mind Miss Howe sat steadily in the vehicle, and clung to the reins guiding the terrorized animal along the middle of the street.
 The sloping hill leading to the down town district added to the momentum of the vehicle and persons on the front ve- randas of Perry Street residences were stricken with fear for the life of the brave young woman. as the phaeton ca reened from side to side in it's flight down 'the street.
 Help mel Help mel. screamed Miss Howe as the horse and vehicle dashed across Washington Street,
 Realizing the danger to the young wo- man. men rushed into the street and at tempted to seize the horse, but without avail
 At Dexter Avenue Miss Howe under took to turn the head of the frightened horse into the Avenue. so as to take ad- vantage of the steep hill leading to the State Capitol Although. she clutched at the reins with all of her strength the animal would not swerve in his course and continued onward across the avenue. A double seated street hack, owned and driven by Mitchell Johnson. negro. stood at. the inortheast corner of Dexter Avenue and Perry Streets. Two horses

 A recent addition to the family there is Mir. Brown from Mobile. He is an Irish man of quite original character and being possessed of a goodly share of the, ha- nor of those of his nationality is quite an important factor when on Sunday the 'fboyS' are hosts. He has charge of the COW and with quite an air of proprietor ship he points with just pride of possess sion to ''my cow and adds "ain't got a nice calf?"
 At noon the party was driven over to Captain Falkner's place, little more than half a mile from the home, and made a rush on his peach orchard This orchard is a thing of beauty. Acres of trees laden with ripe fruit stretch out in symmetrical lines far as the eye reaches.
 Leaving the orchard and vineyard of twenty acres the party returned to the residence of the Falkner home and were royalty entertained at dinner
