An exoitiiif? runaway occnrred on S. Main st.. Wednesday afternoon, and while it lasted it caused lively movements aruong pedestrians and horses ;hat were on the street. It was tied in front of the First National Bank and in some manner pulled its bridle off. This was no sooner done than it dashed down the street. At Manu's drng store it swerved into the sidewalk frightening Will Baxter's horse and it jumped up on the sidewalk squealing and kicking so that people were quite ready to give it a wide berth. Dashing across the street it ran up on the sidewalk and plumped its nose up against the plate glass window in Reimold's saloon. J. F. Schuh's horse which was standing near by here started off on a run down Main st. , but was caught before doing any damage. From Reiinold's the first runaway dashed along the sidewalk to the corner of Liberty st. , theuce across the street where the horse freed itself from the buggy and disappeared. There was very little damage resulted from this runaway. The buggy and harness were broken up a little but no one was injured.
