poisoned n horse by the name of Dan
in the same manner, viz. causing him
to eat cyanide of potassium. The
plaintiff therefore asks for damages
in full for these amounts and Tor the
exemplary damages Of $500, together
with the costs of the case.

A TERRIFIC RUNAWAY.


a frightful runaway that might
have cost the life of one or more, oe-
CURED shortly after nine O'Clock this
morning.
A team consisting of a gray and a
sorrel horse hitched to n runabout
buggy, was standing before the post
Office, little boy holding the reins,
In some manner the boy got frighten-
ed and jumped out. The horse be
came frightened and dashed up
Fourth street. They twisted and
turned past mail wagon and several
vehicles on the street and made a
dash across Main street. Coming
down Fourth street and just about
to turn was a horse and buggy CON
tanning two men, a. N. Anderson and
Axel Glenn, the latter the well known
piano agent. Just as this buggy was
turning the corner to go east on Main
street, the runaway team struck them
This tore loose the buggy attached to
the horses and they dashed wildly up
Fourth street.
In the impact of the Anderson bug
Y, Mr.. Anderson who was driving and
also Mr.. Glenn were knocked from
their buggy. Mr.. Anderson pluclily
held TO his young horse, which he was
breaking. The buggy in which Messrs.
Glenn and Anderson was badly
smashed up, so far as the wheels
were concerned, as was the other
buggy.
The runaway team belonged to
stephen Berry. residing on the flats
below the city and contained n doz-
en- or so boxes of strawberries. 1t
is wonder that the men in the And
erson buggy escaped without some
very serious injuries, as they were
struck in such a manner that every
one thought at least one of the men
had been killed.

Rev Carl AhrenS spoke on "GOd's Gar den of Fruit and Flowers," the virtues we cultivate being the fruits and flowers of our liveS-God's garden. Rev J. H. Knowles in his talk on "Faith" brought out how unconscious ly we exercise faith in others in our daily life far more than we realize. Rev w. J: Guggenheim gave some cbTcb ideas on uor Rudng Rsy the was Ps}cnin in closed with brief talk upon "Love, :" the underlying motive for every good deed done by Christian people for others. The quartet then sang "The Shepherd True; in touching manner, without organ accompaniment, bring ing home to all the thought of the love of the Great Shepherd. Four new members were received into the church at this service. At the after noon service Rev R. E. Danforth, pas tor of the Newtown Congregational church, gave the address of welcome. The service was almost entirely musi- cal the speakers occupying not more than five minutes.
