Animals sometimes appsar to have as
much sense as a human being, and no
doubt they often have. An incident oc-
Cured a few days ago which we'll illus
trates what an animal will sometimes do
in order to prevent injury to a human
being. Deloris Blackwell, daughter OF
Mr.. and Mrs. R. L. Blackwell, was
coasting down the Mound street hill |
when the sled on which she was rid
ing glided beneath horse being driven
by Isaac Cohn. The animal evidently
realized the danger for it reared upon
its hind feet and stood there until
Mr.. Cohn climbed out of the sleigh and
Miss Deloris had escaped to safety. 1t
was necessary for Mr.. Cohn to pull the
horse down, so intent was the animal to
prevent injury. The incident is now
the talk of sthe fresides in that neigh
borhood.
