TWO HORSES AND A COW
FIGURE IN 0LNEYVIlLE MIXUP

Two horses, COW and a wagon top
furnished the olneyvilie district with
sufficient excitement this noon to keep
tongues a-wagging for the rest OF the
day

outfit across the square in the MONDAY
rush. horse. n top wagon and n cow
made up the combination in the order
named.
The horse took fright and started city
wards. The wagon being without a will
or Its own followed the horse The COW,
being averse 10 haste and OF great force
OF mind. refused 10 hurry with the rest
Of the outfit and stopped fast in her
tracks.
There was a binding tie between the
COW and the wagon top which. being OF
strong rope. would not be broken. SO
the wagon and wagon top parted com
pany, the former trusting It's fortunes
with horse. the latter tempting fate in the
company OF the COW.
The obstinate old cud-chewer was so
overcome by the wagon tops display OF
unfailing constancy that she Topped over
and rolled beneath a second horse, one
owned by fellow neamed Corcoran.
The second horse also ran leaving a
very muddy. very flustered and very
scared COW IN the gutter. The COW was
promptly pinched and thus severed her
connection with the tale
Horsch's horse was caught by a pole
near the Westminster hill bridge the
wagon being smashed 20 pieces Cor
avenue before II was stopped Roth
teams were badly damaged while other
wise the whole affair was highly enter
tanning.

spirits as the trial progresses. She has
not. yet entirely recovered from her slight
