Several boys were in front of the door when the alarm was sounded and one little tfrtlow stood directly in the way of the prancing horses as they emerged at lightning gait, seemingly perfectly dazed at the spectacle, and a fatal accident might have ensued had It not been for the watchfulness and skill of the driver, who timely averted ft by a sharp turn of She team.
