Elsie Thompson, IA, Showed
Staying Qualities in a
Midnight Runaway

Anticiating a slow, pleas
ant drive to their homes at
st. Lawrence after the con-
cert here Wednesday night,
Ethel King, Elsie Thomp-
son and brother left the
church for the street where
their horse was tied in a
leisurely frame of mind.
The girls got into the
buggy as the young man
united the horse. The
lines were under the horses
feet and in the untangling
the animal started off with
the girls at lightning speed.
Another buggy followed,
the driver believing he
could overtake them while
a man on horseback spurred
his steed on with the same
object in mind, but the pur-
suers only made the runa-
way 60 a little faster and
the girls scream a little bit

girl concluded to jump, pre-

differ in our views.

son girl hung on to the
jumping buggy, as the horse
madly turned corners,
scaled deep bitches, glazed
telephone poles and scraped
barb wire fences, her voice
and hair raising and falling
by jerks. At last the wind
ed horse, sprained buggy
and scared girl pulled up at
the Thompson home in a
barb wire fence. The news
of the wild ride had reached
the THOMPSON place a mo-
ment before the horse had
returned and as Elsie open
ed the door her father was
inquiring for her at the tel
