FURIOUS
BRIDGE
RUNAWAY
Excited Horse Jumps Over
Railing on Big Bridge

AS two ladies were driving over the
big steel bridge, just before noon, the
horse attached to the buggy became
frightened at the rafting wires and
broke to run. He jumped over the
railing next to the sidewalk and tore
loose from the buggy, ran down the
sidewalk and collided with a bicycle
rider, and escaped off the end Of the
bridge.
The ladies were not hurt, although
terribly frightened by their thrilling
experience, for, had the horse jumped
the other way they might have all
landed in the river. The wires have
become loosened, and make a very
peculiar rattle, that gets onto almost
any animals nerves. A broad plank
should be erected on the top wire as
a guard rail, as the bridge is positive.
