A horse belonging to the Cam
bridge Manufacturing Co., became
frightened this morning while down
town and ran up High street as hard
as it could go. In attempting to
make the turn at the corner of High
and Poplar streets, it lost it's footing
and slid about fifty feet. Quite
number of persons saw the horse fall
and thought that it was seriously in
jured, but when it came to a stand
still it qquietly raised it's head and
looked around. When the harness
was loosened it was found that the
horse had received a number of
scratches, and one cut, but it was
hooked to the wagon and taken back
down town.
The United States is engaged in
the most terrible war that the human
race has ever known, and while it is
true that we have not yet commenc
ed to send troops to the battle fields,
1t must be borne in mind that we will
commence doing so in a short time,
and right from Cambridge and Dor
chester county, there will be hun
dreds of men go, some of whom may
never return. Those who look upon
the war as joke, or inclined to re-
gard the subject frivously, should
bear in mind the fact that right from
their own families may come some
of these hundreds of men who will
be called. Already a considerable
number of young men have enlisted
for service, but their number is small
as compared with those who will
have to go within the mex, few weeks
or months.
