BY the prompt action and coolness OF
Patrolman Thomas A. Kane who was
recently assigned to the Chaffee street
station, Dr. p. w. Tiernan Of 7S7 Atwell's
avenue was saved from death. The doc
tor was driving a new horse through the
square last evening when Il was fright
cned and started on "A wild run toward
Manton avenue. Patrolman Kane saw
that the outfit was headed towards him
and also that collision was about to
happen, as there was a democrat wagon
standing near the bridge and a Manton
avenue car coming from an opposite di-
rection. The Doctors carriage struck the
democrat wagon and the compact threw
the doctor from II. Had not the patrol
man been on hand the doctor would have
fallen I'm front OF the car. but as Il was
the patrolman seized the doctor. as he
fell and at the same time succeeded in
getting a firm hold OF the rens OF the
frightened horse. Those who saw the
mix-up were loud I'm their praises FOR Mr..
Kane. for II was only his strength and
coolheadedness that prevented a fatality.

MUST WAIT ANOTHER SEASON.
Early this summer when the parents OF
children, who attend the Kelly street
primary school. saw that a sewer was
being installed I'm that street. they were
under the impression that their little
ones, most OF whom are accustomed 10
up-to-date sanitary conditions would not
be obliged to go I'm stormy weather. a
distance OF 200 or more feet 10 an out
house. but as no move has been made 10
do away with the old system they have
come 10 the conclusion that their little
bes must wade through the snow and
slush at least one more winter. II is re-
ported that all property owners along the
street have been notified 10 connect their
premises with the new sewer. but this,
OF course. is no hardship. as most OF
them have been calling for the much
needed Improvement for a long time.
There are none who have done more 10
have the school connected with the sewer
than Alderman Parker and Councilman
j. San Souci, but both say that the
prospects OF the job being done this fall
arc very slight

Another Olneyville favorite will be on the
