A horse belonging to Mr. Welch, a
farmer living on the East Barre road,
furnished free vaudeville for throng
of people on North Main street yester-
day when he become frightened and ran
away while trotting down Washington
street. Near the junction of the main
and branch street car lines, one runner
of the sleigh became caught in the track,
The horse made an effort to yank the
sleigh from the rail. but it did not yield.
Instead, the outfit turned completely
over, and the steed becoming released
from the thills, started toward Depot
square. Bystanders near the Worthen
block turned the animal into Keith ave-
nue., where it was brought to halt.
Afterwards it was found that the sleigh
had suffered considerably from the ac-
cident and a wagon maker who looked
the outfit over, said the owner would
have to part with a neat little stake be-
fore it could be restored.

The Paradis bowling alleys staged two
important bowling contests last evening, |
the 0zarks winning froen the newly or |
ganized Liptons two out of three games |
and the I.amorey clerks winning from
the Blanchard building employees, two |
out of three games. One OF the biggest |
galleries of the season swarmed the al |
leys to witness the matches. The 0zark's |
lost the first match to the Liptons, but /
by strong finish cinched the two last |
games. Fred Inglis of the Liptons had /
high three-string and single string scores
of the evening. He rolled l02 for sim I
gle string and 2S0 for three-string to- /
tai. Cory was the higher roller for the
Ozarks. The Liptons displayed good |
form, although defeated, and are ex i
peeted to make matters interesting for (
local teams. The Lamorey clerks won
the first two games from the Blanchard /
employees, losing the third. G. Douglass /
was high single and three string bowler I
of the game. His best single effort was
1903 and the three-string total was 26S.
Two young children of Michael David /
Of Granite street are in a serious CON
dition as the result of accidents which /
happened in the vicinity OF their home
and Sunday. On the last day /
of the week, young Daphne David, aged
Q, was sliding down the Granite street
hill when he lost control of his sled.
Before he could make move to save
himself, the sled whisked him past the
Consolidated Lighting Co.'S transformer
station and over l5-foot bank into the
river. The water is deep and swift at /
1 hat point and it is probable that young
David would have died, either from
drowning or exposure, had not assist
ance arrived at an opportune moment. /
Friends of the youngster alarmed the /
neighbors and David was soon fished /
out of the water. He is still in bed. /
Sunday afternoon Mr.. David's youngest
daughter stepped into the street and |
was knocked down by a traverse sled
