Seated by her in the buggy, was Sat-
urday the heroine of the swiftest run
away ever seen in Middleton. Driv-

horses ran up behind and her animal
led away. There were no cries from
the buggy and no falling under
wheels; but over irrigation canals,
electric tracks, around corners and
thru alleys the furious steed was
kept from colliding with outside OBJ
jects until, tired out, he was driven
back to the main part of town. There
was something doing but nobody
