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.

A delicious cup of fine flavored coffee is a health
ful drink atfall times. That is why everyone who
has tried Steel Cut Coffee" is an enthusiast. It goes
right to the spot-it just suits. This coffee is made by
a process whereby instead of being ground like ordin
ary coffee it is cut into fine varticles with steel knives
which goes away with all the injurious coffee dust and
gives it its delicious flavor. You drink coffee every
