BOY NARROWLY S DENH Rides Rear Truck of Wagon While Driverless Team Dashes Madly Down Street PENCE STOPS TEAM Boy Is Thrown In Air and Alights On His Feet Unharmed. Frightened women and children and excited men upset the calm of Front street last night when a mad dened team of horses, driverless, and pulling a lumber wagon on which lay little Duncan Ferguson, careened down the main street of Alarshfleld threatening every moment to veer In their wild course and plunge through the plate glass fronts that line the street. Grim death seemed to bo staring the boy in tho face and probably not again in his life will he come In such close proximity to the Death Angel and escapo unharmed. Ho lay on the rear trucks of tho wagon and kept his position only by gripping the brace over tho rsar a.s!e with uli tho strenth at his command. He occu pied this perilous position from tho Standard Oil warehouse dawn Front street and up C street to Second street, where the horses dashed into the picket fence in front of the resl dnce occupied by J. W. Alauzey and were stopped by the near house be coming entangled In the mass of kindling wood to which tho fence was reduced and falling down. The boy was thrown up in the air by the force of the Impact and fell to the ground, alighting on his feot un harmed. The wagon and horses belonged to the C. A. Smith Lumber Company and the driver had them in front of the warehouse belonging to the Stan dard Oil Company. He was Btandlng on the ground and turning them around when they became frightened and started on their mad career down Front street. Except for a smashed tongue the wagon was not damaged. The horses escaped with a few slight scratches. CLOSE DINING HALL Central Hotel Will Only Be Open For Rooms For About a Month. The Central Hotel dining room will be closed after today, leaving but one hotel dining room in Alarshfleld. Air.

In order that he may handle more roomers, Air. Snyder has secured a five-year lease on the Deubner prop erty on front street, the second floor to be occupied by s omo business house. He has not yet decided Just what business will occupy tho first floor. The present dining room will be remodeled and divided into two rooms, In one of which the Curry barber shop will be located.
