Mr. McCarty was sitting near the window and narrowly escaped being seriously cut with flying pieces of glass. He was struck on the shoul- der by a large piece of glass and re- ceived a. severe shock.

' WAS SLIGHTLY INJURED. When the teams collided Mr. lic- (iuire was thrown from his sleigh and received alight injuries. His horo- ea were also badly cut with the plate glass and a veterinary surgeon had to be secured to attend to their outs. ' A HEAVY LOSS. Had the window been a. low ' feet closer to the ground the team would have probably ran into the store and caused thousand of dollars worth of damage. Mr. McCarty, in speak- ing to a. Warder reported. estimated his loss at over $100, including three gold watches, pieces of cut glass, rings. china, etc. The plate glass window is insured. Mr. McCarty and his assistants worked most of the evening cleaning up the broken glass and picking up the jewellery that was knocked to all parts of the store. ‘ RUNAWAY 24 YEARS AGO.
