THROUGH the foolishness of acouple of Smarties who were racing horses on the night of the Varney Church Anniversm‘y, an accident happened to Miss May Saunders which may cripple her for life. On the way home, four from town were coming along leisurely when suddenly two conveyances flashed by. one on each side. This frightened the horse and he became somewhat unmanageable. and the lady occupants, Miss Saun- ders and Miss Lauder jumped for safety, and in doing so Miss Saunders had her ankle bone broken in two «places. in such manner that the at- tending physicians entertain the Opinion that the foot may be stifi. idiots who indulge in such pranks as to race along the public highway at- uight or any other time, seem‘fit sub- jects for the lunatic asylum.
