NEWLY PURCHASED HORSE
SEEMS TO Be HIGH KICKER

Chief Potter, of the fire department
and DR.. E. ]. Mitchell had an exc.t
ing experience yesterday Afternoon
and the experience was also full of an
element of danger that made it little
too interesting for the gentlemen.
The fire department purchased ine
lorse from Mr.. Adams, who lives about
eighteen miles in the country at a
cost of 5000 and yesterday Chief Pot
ter took DR.. Mitchell in his buggy to
show the doctor how the horse would
perform, and the result was that there
was a performance that was not down
on the program.
When the two gentlemen were cross
ing the Mississippi Central on West
street, the horse became frightened at
twoc hildren on the railroad track and
was controlled with much difficulty.
After crossing the railroad track An
other child came in sight and the horse
began to rear and plunge. Then The
animal changed tactics and began to
show his high kicking qualities and in
this respect he would have won q
medal. DR.. Mitchell jumped out of the
buggy and had his hand stained. Chief
Potter held on with the result that be
was finally thrown out, but before this
was done he was kicked on the left
knee, the right foot and the forehead
When he was thrown out he sustained
severe injury in the small of the
back. Today Chief Potter is ''laid up
