NEW WAY OF STOPPING
A BAD RUNAWAY
Miss Julia Lawrence Proves
Herself a Little Heroine
Last Friday.
| ANOTHER GIRL IS INJURED
Accident Takes Place Near Sharp
shooters Park While Children
Were Picking Flowers.
ANOTHER GIRL IS INJURED

Miss Julia Lawrence, the little 49,
year-old daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Geo.
w. Lawrence of this city. stopped a
runaway horse last Friday by reaching
over the dashboard and grasping ii by
the tail. That a runaway horse could
be stopped in this unusual manner and
that the girl had presence of mind
enough to try such an unheard Of way
of stopping a horse is probably re-
sponsible for the fact that the acct
dent did not result fatally to the chill
dren who were in the buggy.
AS it was Doris Lawrence, one of
the other girls, who was in the party,
was run over by the buggy and was un-
conscious for several hours as a re-
suit.
The accident happened in the vicinity
of Sharpshooters' park. The children
had gone out in the country for the
purpose of gathering flowers.
When they arrived at Sharpshooters'
park they got out of the buggy and
picked flowers along the road.
Tries TO stop Horse.
The horse is perfectly harmless and
tame, but it grew restless from stand
ing for so long, and after Julia Law
renee and Mabel Louise Hatch got into
the buggy and Doris Lawrence had
hold of the reins. preparing to get into
the buggy, the horse suddenly started
off,
Doris tried her best to hold to the
reins, and ran along with the horse for
some distance. Finally she was com
PEELED to drop the reins and fell be-
meath the buggy. One of the wheels
ran over her foot and she was thrown

render her unconscious.
That left Julia and Mabel in the hug
gy alone. The horse was running down
the road at rapid pace. Finally Julia,
realizing the danger, did the only thing
| that was left to do. She reached over
the dashboard and grasped the horse

Pulling with all her might and yell

horse to stop. A boy came along on a
bicycle at the time and took charge of
the horse.
Doris Unconscious.
The children then went back to the
place where the runaway started and
found Doris lying In the road uncon-
scious She was carried to the fire
station on Calumet avenue and there
an ambulance was summoned.
The little girl was taken to chr home
where doctor was summoned. He soon
discovered that no bones had been
broken and that the shock was the
most serious effect of the accident In
the brief period that followed the re-
turn to consciousness. Doris called re-

Florida farmers and dairymen have
IN thu velvet bean one Of the cheapest
and best dairy feeds. Experiments
which have been carried out at this
Station Indicate that velvet beans are
nearly equal pound for pound to cot

Tn first test was conducted during
the winter Of 19O8-9. The results
showed that 267.75 pounds of velvet
beans In the pod produce as much
milk as 94.5 pounds of cottonseed
meal (7.5 per cent ammonia). When,
267.7b pounds a velvet beans in the
pod were fed with wheat bran and
sorghum silage, the cows gave 1885
gallons of milk. When 9i.5 pounds
Of oottonseed meal we're fed with
wheat bran and sorghum silage, 1883
gallons Of milk were produced. The
cost per gallon OF milk, not including
labor, was: velvet bean ration 1873
cents; cottonseed meal ration. 1871

The same experiment Was repeated
during the Water Of 1sO9-l0. In this
test, SIG pounds Of velvet beans in the

while SIS pounds Of cottonseed meal

that she would secure his election the

have assiduously nursed the constr

been an Invaluable aid in the opening

She worked necessarily throughout

when her husband was laid up with

Stone Thrown Hit Her Hat.
A stone was thrown at her last
Tuesday. 1t hit her toque, and cost
the Liberals many votes.
On the polling day, smiling and con
fident, Mrs. Aston rushed lither and
thither in a landau, drawn by a span
OF horses. AS the day wore ON she
called personally on many hesitant
poor voters. In this part OF her can
wasting she was carefully slIadowed
by detectives hired by the other side
TO note any attempt at bribery or
what the election laws designate as
corrupt practice" The Liberals are
said to have secured evidence Of
technical bribery, but whether it is
sufficient to make Mrs. Aston the
heroine of d sensational election suit
in court is yet undecided.
What She Has to Say About 1t.
After the victory, she said to the
World correspondent:
Il am very proud that my husband
is to represent this splendid borough
with so many close and vital historic
associations with the United States.
What | have done for my husband has
been due to the fighting Virginia
blood in my veins. And we won, be

Of England are tired Of the false pro-

pie. What is more, | tell you that

We beat them in fair fight, and
in way beyond any question. They
fixed their own time, and it did them

thing than / am of membership in the
