STARTS SOMETHING
 ON MORRIS AVENUE
A GRAY HORSE HAS A BRAIN STORM AND DASHES AWAY, TAKING WHEELS FROM A FEW WAGONS IN HIS FLIGHT.

He who finds life dull and somehow can't get out of the realm of nothing doing can very readily relieve the sit uation by starting a runaway down Morris avenue. This fact was forcibly illustrated yesterday afternoon when a gray horse hitched to a light grocery wagon belonging to W. M. Leary be- came tangled up with brainstorm and started down the avenue at full speed in an effort to weather the storm It ran only for half block, but in that short space knocked down one mule scratch ed two others and finally ended up by smashing the wheels of the wagon it was pulling.
 One young man almost made q hero of himself in the endeavor to save Nor ris avenue. This young man is long of shank and was sitting on coop of chickens across the street from the ami maj when it made it's start. Just as the horse started this young man made one spring, landed in the middle of the made mighty pull upon them. The frightened animal ran close to another dray and put the question up to the young man as to whether he would save his life or Morris avenue. I.e choose his life and left the avenue to its fate. His mighty spring was the cause of comment however. and some one suggested that the spring chickens in the coop upon which he had been sit ting had helped him. but Investigation proved them to be ducks.
 One facetious person insisted that a person had remarked in the hearing of the horse that "Gray" was to run for governor and the horses color being of that shade. the animal thought they meant him. so he picked up his block and started for Montgomery at once
