John r. Peck had quite an exciting
runaway, last week Thursday morn
ing, near the barn Of William II. Prin-
die, when his horses, attached to a
milk wagon, became frightened at an
automobile, ran and smashed a wheel.
They cleared themselves and ran as
far as Fred Northrop's, where Mr.
Northrop stopped them. Mr. Peck
was bruised some on one leg. w. Fl.
Prindle started down the road with
the horses and got as far as G. B.
JohnSon'S, when they met another
auto. The horses, greatly wrought
up, got away from Mr. Prindle and ran
as far as the Henderson place. On
Sunday morning Mr. Peck's team,
while hitched in front of the store of
r. II. Beers & Co., became frightened
at an automobile and ran across F. J.
Naramore's lawn and on to G. B. Tay-
lor's property. The latter, who was
talking with A. r. Nettleton, had a
close call from being struck by one of
the infuriated horses. The automo-
bileS are becoming so common that it
is unsafe for women to drive on the
streets A law to provide special auto
mobile highways at the expense of the
autOmobilists will be demanded soon.

beauty OF the dialogue and the literary

hard 10 believe that there had been but
six days OF preparation. A special word
Of praise should be given to Messrs.

scenes, which gave the play an atmos-
phere to which much Of the success of
the production was due.
Mr. Ingersol played Francois with Just
tho right dash OF wild and Joyous reck-
lessness. His personation had ease, power
and authority, and the gradual assump-
tion OF polish and dignity contrasted with
the rudeness and roughness Of the early
scene. His voice showed to admirable
effect in the reading OF the beautiful
lines in the love scenes with Katherine
which he played with fervor and sym
pathy His defiance OF the Burgundian
envoy was forceful and the scene with
his mother was especially tender

distinction to her portrayal and she rose
TO the force and dignity Of her lines with
ease and grace. Another whose work was
remarkably good was Miss Evans, who
played Huegette with deftness and aban-
