RUNAWAY TEAM

A runaway team, hitched to
a wagon loaded with feed, caus-
ed some excitement Monday af-
ternoon, shortly after four
o'clock. The horses had been
left standing, by their driver,
in front of the pool room of
Thomas S. Riale and became
frightened at a passing auto
truck. They started down
Cherry street, headed for home,
but by the time they reached
Wilson Avenue were going too
fast to make the turn, and con-
tinued straight ahead, through
the privet hedge, into the yard
of Cecil E. Ewing, across the
lawn and back of the house,
through a narrow space be-
tween porch and fence, scarce
ly wider than the wagon. The
team turned sharply into the
yard on the south side of the
house, the wagon glancing off
a large tree in the side yard,
but the runaways continued a
few feet further until another
large tree was struck squarely
by the front of the wagon. The
tongue was broken from the
wagon, horses stripped of
harness, and came to a stand
still, evidently concluding they
had had their fun, as they re-
manned standing quietly in the
yard, and made no further at
tempt to run.
The team belonged to H. H.
Baugher, of near Gathers
Corner.
About the only damage done,
in addition to cutting up the
lawn, was the breaking off of
two posts in the fence in the
rear of the house, and the
breaking of the tongue from
the wagon. Fortunately there
was no traffic on Cherry street
at the time, although several
cars were parked along the
street.

INJURED in RAILROAD
WRECK

Four members of a train
crew were injured, none SER
iously, in a wreck on the POM
r0y-NeWark railroad, when an
open switch caused a Pennsyl-
vania locomotive, tender and
two cars to plunge fifteen feet
off the end of a trestle. The
injured were Engineer Harry
Melchoir, of Harrisburg: Con-
ductor J. w. Van Horn and
Fireman Claude Manley, both
of Lancaster, and Flagman
George McComsey, of Column
bia, Pa.
Towing seven cars along the
Pomroy-Newark freight branch
the locomotive entered the
open switch, and ran along the
100-foot trestle siding. 1t pull
led the first two cars over the
end. One car contained mer-
chandise, the other hogs, two
of which were killed and two
had to be destroyed.
AS a wrecking crew was tow
ing the other five cars off the
trestle, the structure collapsed.

Factors kidnapping
Continues Mystery

Chicago, July 10.-(A)-The disap-
pearance of John Factor was as much
q mystery Monday as It. was the
morning his abduction was reported
nine days ago.
Local authorities said Mrs. Rella
Factor, the missing SPECTATORS wife,
apparently was convinced Factors
disappearance was a bona fide kid
mapping, and pointed to q statement
she would offer reward for infor-
nation leading to his safe return, as
substantiation of her belief.
The announcement of the reward
came from Mrs. Factors brother,
William Cohen, who said he under
stood the amount to be offered would
be approximately $4,000.
Counsel for the British govern
ment has charged Factors abduction
was hoax, designed to prevent his
extradition to England on a swindle
charge, but local investigators con-
tinued to work on the theory Factor
may be held for ransom. They raided
q dozen reputed haunts of the gang
