DELIVERY HORSE TAKES SPIN
FURNISHES EXCITEMENT FOR
EARLY MORNING PEDESTRIANS
ON ALDER STREET.

Excitement galore was furnished by
a runaway delivery horse belonging
to the McGrew grocery on Alder street
this morning about 10 O'Clock
Left standing at some house on
South Third street, the horse, which
was not used to being driven single,
suddenly decided to go back to the
store in search of it's mate, which is
off duty today. Tearing down Third
street the horse and delivery wagon
rounded the corner on Alder street
and started east towards the store,
spilling about half the load of grot
ceries in so doing.
AS the alley between the McGrew
store and the Telephone company's
building was reached, the horse de-
cided to turn in, but unfortunately
collided with buggy tied in front of
the latter place. The horse fell on
the sidewalk and slid into the bars in
front of the basement windows of the
Telephone building, bruising it up
some but not injuring itself seriously.
The wagon was not damaged and the
harness escaped injury.
