The middle of sleep summer afternoon
on North Main street was broken yes
terday by minor accident that threat
ened for few moments to assume seri-
Gus proportions. A double team which
the owner was driving in a southerly
direction, slipped in front of the Hale
auction market and went to the curb
ing before the driver could gain see
ond grasp on the reins. One of the pair
became released from the harness and
had it not been for the ready wit of
a nearby livery employee he would have
figured in a spectacular runaway. Just
as the entire outfit spread itself com
fortably across the tracks of the b. &
NJ. Traction & Power Co., along come
a street car. Fortunately the motor
man was proceeding slowly and he was
able to stop his ear ion time to avoid
collision. Beyond minor bruise on the
leg, the fractions horse escaped without
injury.
Amedo Calcagni, who lives ON Center
street, met with a very painful acct
dent last evening about o'clock that
will detain him from work for several
weeks. He entered his hennery at the
rear of his residence to secure a choice
duck for his evening meal, and while
cavorting about the hennery, Mr.. Cal |
cagni tripped on some treacherous vines
and fell heavily to the earth. As he
struck the ground his left hand struck
a large piece of glass. The full weight |
of his body behind the fall opened up
a cash in the palm of his hand measur-
ing about four inches in length. The !
wound bled severely and medical attend |
ance was called. Ligaments in the hand !
were lacerated. Mr.. Calcagni is a MEM
Der of the Barre band and hopes TO
make his appearance with the band on
Friday morning, when they gather at
Depot square to greet the delegation
Of retail granite dealers who are coming |
from Boston for general inspection of
the granite business of Barre and vi
einity.
