FRicAreULLY HURT IN RUNAWAY
Baby Killed and Woman and Three
Children Trampled Upon.


New York, Jan. S.-A runaway team
dashed into a crowd at a First avenue
crossing, killing a baby in its carriage,
and SO injuring the child's mother and
three other children that they can
hardly survive.
AS the driyerless team, drawing a
heavy truck, turned into the avenue,
Mrs. Minnie Klappel, pushing a car
riage occupied by her 16-month-old
boy, Sidney, and with another son,
Harry, aged 4, and daughter, Mile,
6 years Old on either side, started for
the opposite curb. With them were
Frank Sohn, aged 3, and Frederick
Leachman, years old. The woman
saw their peril and made a frantic eff
fort to get her charges bask to the
curb. Only Mile escaped. The baby
was crushed to death, while Mrs. Klap-
pei and the other three children were
trampled upon
Removed senseless to hospital, all
were found to be frightfully injured,
in each case internal wounds being
probably serious enough to cause
death.
The momentary check to the run
Always as they stumbled among the
victims permitted others in the ave-
nue. to escape. The team was stopped
by policemen, who arrested Alexander
Taggert, the driver, who is alleged to
have left his horses In the street. He
was charged with homicide, after he
had been dragged through a threaten
Ing crowd TO a police station.

the wel-appointed feminine wardrobe for a
pretty frock that may be worn upon any
occasion and at any season Of the year,
and the model here sketched is charming
realization OF such costume. The waist
Stimulating the popular over-blouse, is pref
tily shirred and tucked over fitted lining
and is finished at the neck with chemisette
of all-over lace. Full-length sleeves may
be substituted for the elbow sleeves shown.
in which event the plain lower portions
may be covered with lace matching the
chemisette. The skirt, which can be made
in either sweep or round length. owes much
OF its graceful effect to the circular upper
part. which is shirred around the hips and
heightened by the addition Of shaped
sectional founce, this also being shirred at
wide intervals. Lace insertion is used for
trimming, but passementerie or silk braid
may be substituted. AS pictured, the dress

ured in golden brown but voile eolienne
