Some excitement was occasioned
Thursday morning along Water street
and at the corner of Water and Bridge
streets by a runaway. The horse own
cd by the Brooks Hardware Co. was
standing in front of the store when
the hose wagon galloped through the
street with load Of hose for the
dump fire at Royal Park. and the horse
taking fright, galloped along behind
the fire wagon. AT the corner of
Bridge and Water streets Police Off
Ger Doyle, who was at the spindle, saw
the horse and attempted to catch it
by the bridl'. The horse swcrved onto
the bridge, the wagon going onto the
sidewalk and nearly going through
the Coushlin drug store window. When
the wagon swung by, Officer Doyle
jumped onto the back of the wagon,
and as the reins We're under the horses
feet he crawled along the thiIls of the
wagon until ne could reach the bride
and stop the horse. All this took less
time than the telling of the story and
the horse was stopped about half way
over the bridge.

A Modern Fable

GA naturalist divided an
n aquarium with a clear
glass partition. He put lusty
bass in one section and minnows
in the other.
"The bass struck every time
a minnow approached the glass
partition. After three days of
fruitless lunging, which netted
him only bruises, he ceased his
efforts and subsisted on the
food that was dropped in.
Then the naturalist removed
the glass partition. The min
nows swan all around the bass
but he did not strike at a single
one. He had been thoroughly
sold on the idea that business
was bad.
MORAL: Take another shot
at the glass partition. You'll
find it isn't there" =

Two days later Wilton, now com
pletely recovered, started for the
bush.
The sub-contraCtor had practically
completed the camp at Big MuSkeg.
and there was quite a gang Of men
there, principally engaged in hauling
the cut timber. Wilton had taken
Anderson from the cache and made
him the foreman. The Swede was
employ, but had fallen from his estate
owing to repeated lapses into drunken
ness.
Wilton planned to reach Big Mus
keg on Saturday night, in order to
meet his men on the Sunday, when
they would all be in camp. He took
new engineer with him, young
fellow named Digby. who had come
with excellent recommendations from
an English institute. He was particu-
larly anxious to reach his destination,
for he had had no letter from Molly
since his recovery.
To his surprise, Wilton found the
camp absolutely empty, though there
we're plenty of signs of an abundant
population. But shores from one of
the benches in the dining room be-
trayed the presence of a solitary oc,
cupant. A man was lying full length
behind the table, his hat tilted over
his face.
Wilton shook him to his feet, anG

stood reeling and blinking at him.

the portage.

with another jerk.
Wilton STROBE from the dining ROOM
his heart burning with Indignation
Who had brought liquor into the camp?
1t was a thing dreaded by employers
Of labor, almost more than the oc-
casional typhoid epidemics. While
liquor was to be obtained within a
radius of five-and-twenty miles, work
would be practically suspended.
With Digby at his heels he strobe
fercely out toward the swamp. Big
Muskeg was less than three miles
away by the new road which had been
cut from the camp to the portage.
Wilton's heart sank at the thought
Of the men in the factors place with
Molly. The laborers were chiefly
Hunlies and Gallcians, docile as sheep
when sober, but changed by drink in.
to wild beasts.
AS they gained the opposite bank
they heard wild shouts of drunken
laughter, and, in momentary interval,
McDonald's angry protestant then
cry from Molly.
They ran at the top Of their speed,
Wilton leading.
He burst into the store. It was
filed with men, roaring and shout
