' In an attempt to run away yester day afternoon, George, a horse belong ing to Mr. Joe Klouse, the butcher, was thrown violently to the ground and lost two or three gallona of blood. The horse ran away about two weeks ago, ? dragging a 13-pound weight. na, . wrecxeo; one or two ve hicles. Since that time he has made several Ineffectual attempts to clear the streets. Without any apparent provocation at all, yes terday he sprang like a shot from rn' front of the butcher shop, the weight jerking -him back and around. The wagon was overturned and the horse thrown to the ground with such vio lence that hemorrhage resulted. The horse will not die from his injuries, but- it is safe to presume that he will never run away again. rt HAVE YOU ?
