Robert Cole’s horses ran away late Monday night and as a result of tbe run away one of the horses broke his back and will die. The horses were hitched to a carriage at the Central depot and Cole was in the act of putting a trank on the front of the carriage, when the horses became frightened and dashed off np Thomas street. Faster and faster they went until they broke loose from theoarriage, leav ing it in the middle of Thomas street. The Lightened horses continued their maddened rosh np Thomas street nntii they reached the store of the Arnold Grocery Oo. At that point they dashed against a telephone pole with great vio lence and the runaway was over,for the horses had been so badly injured that they could go no further. They were carried to the stable where it was found that one of them had a broken back and the other was more or less injured. .There wna no one in the carriage at » o dr by Miss Katie Monday night at eleven o’clock at hir I home in Sandy Creek district, a fee miles from the city.
