 Mrs John H. Duigan of Rubber avenue, through her attorney, Will | liam Kennedy, has served notice
 on Borough Clerk Beardsley that
 damages will be claimed for injuries | she received on October 17 by req
 son of board being placed over a | hole in the sidewalk on South Water
 street. The board was much higher than the sidewalk and caused her to | trip and fall. This is the spot that had been ordered by the board to be put in a safe condition, and as the 1 defect in the sidewalk was caused by | the work that was being done by the

 and number of other societies as a
 lodge room until the place was va cated by them this year, as the Hi bernians had purchased place on Church street and now have q hall that is owned by them. Since the
 place has been vacated by the Hi bernians, it has not been used, but when the work that is now being
 done there is finished, it will be used as a pool room.

 til a work train came along on the
 tracks close by and the horse started
 to cross, and had not some of the civil engineers employed on the work that is being done near there stop ped the horse, it is difficult to say what would have been the result. The horse was stopped and in about ten minutes the driver came along looking for the team. and when he did find it. he drove off without offering thanks to the men for what they had done for him and acted as though they were to blame for the horse straying away from the place where he had left it. There is borough ord finance against leaving horse un- hitchcd in the street and it should be enforced by the police, as runaway horse is apt to do damage to per sons as well as property.
