AN INTERESTING EXPERIENCE.

AN INTERESTING EXPERIENCE.
 Charles Coggswell of Laurel Hill had, quite an experience, one evening last week, which he will not soon for get. Mir Coggswell drove to Ridgefeld to see some friends and left his horse is front of the house where he stopped, without hitching. After he had finished his call he was surprised on going out doors to find his horse had left him. With his brother, Mir Coggswell hunted all night for the horse and did not To- cate him until the next morning, when he found him in Patrick Germans barn near the Branchville depot. The horse evidently got tired of standing still, and wandered from Ridgefeld to Branchville and turned into Mir Cor mans yard. where MT German found it late that evening and he put it into his barn until the owner should call for it, not knowing whom the team belonged to. The horse and wagon were unin- jured.
 Mir Marble, of Laurel Hill, whose horse was so badly injurded by falling on the ice few weeks ago, is now on the high road to recovery.
