A lively runaway, with a few i
ixtra trimmings, occurred here a I
lay or two ago. Mr. Geo. \V. !
Baker's dignified old grayjmare i
was standing hitched to a wagon i
oaded with barrels of wa'er i
alongside his engine and well- I
boring outfit now stationed on
the lot in rear of the Springs
block. A sudden and shrill whis
Lie on the part of the engine not
un.y UHUseci 1113 old mare to sit
tip and take notice but to hike
out with full speed in the direction
of Rives's Spring. The
wagon wan whirled along at a
terrific rate while the water bar
rela industriously danced about
in the wagon body, splashing the
water high and far iu all directions.
Following iu the wake of the
Hying team and falling water
were two comely mule cobs of
the old mare, each with t??il ?v_
teuded, head elevated and feel
bitting the ground in high places
anly. As the extraordinary procession
fairly Hew around the
rear end of the Lancaster Mercantile
company's store one of
(he frightened colls was heard
by "Billie-Buck" to excitedly
?xclaira : "What-the h?I'sthe
matterwith mother!" "Damfino,"
replied the other diminutive
mule, "hut she acts like she
.bought some ass had ?tied the
llock Hill street sprinkler to her
caudal appendage."
Those colls have not been seen
n town since, and, so far as we
enow, they may be still runling.
