W. Kokrer, Ckirf of Kurt-ail a horse was nearly drowned and a buggy slightly damaged, in an accident at the corner of Court and Counsel streets early Saturday night. The three young men in the team, which belonged to Sir. Smith, were driving out Court street toward Second, and although one red light was burning at the ditch they attempted to drive around it. Instead the horse landed In the ditch, throwing the occupants of the buggy to the street.

On Counsel street improvements are being made to the water pipes and the street has been closed for several days. Near the end of the week it was necessary to extend the ditch nearly across Court street to find the connection. This latter ditch was about four feet in depth and was half filled with water. As the street was obstructed. making it unfit for traffic, red lights were placed, one in the middle of she dirt pile and another to the west, facing Church street: and at the Second street 'end a barrier had been placed and on it several more red lights were burning.

The accident occurred about S.15 o'clock and was witnessed by only a few people who were in the Court house park and several others who were on Court street. Messrs. Smith and McSherry were seated in the buggy and Mr. Thomas was sitting on the latter's lap: Smith was doing the driving. It is said that the horse was going at a slow trot.

The occupants of the buggy say that the red light was easily marked in the gloom, but that they thought they could pass on the right hand side, and attempted to do t.1 Mill Ascertain the Trpkoid Hero. krce a JU44?

The ditch. which is full of muddy water, is open the side of the crossing at that and anyone taking one step to he side goes in. as several have al- readv learned. oi so. The horse stopped when he met the two foot bank of dirt, but the driver forced him over only to see him disappear with a splash as the three men were hurled headlong "from the buggy.

Smith and McSherry landed in the ditch on top of the horse, and Thomas was thrown to the side along the pavement. It is thought that Smith had his right foot under the foot-rest in the buggy and the sudden stop did not give him a chance to release it, causing the break, which is above the ankle. By some means he managed to crawl to the sidewalk, but held the plunging horse until it quieted down. He then nearly fainted and was carried to the Elks' Club- Thomas was unconscious when found in the door of State's Attorney Willard's office and was also taken to the Elks'. McSherry was able to walk and met the other two as they were being removed to the office of Dr.

F. B. Smith, where their wounds were dressed. Smith was later taken to the Frederick City Hospital, where he is doing rery -As soon as the men had received treatment attention was turned to the horse, whose situation was much worse than was at first thought When the animal fell into the hole it was only half full of water, hut the addition of the horse's body made it overflow, and as the horse sank deeper and deeper into the soft mud he was entirely submerged with the exception of his head which was held out by means of ropes thrown around him. It at first thought that he had broken a leg in the fall and could not clamber out of the ditch on that account.

Dr. R. V. Smith was summoned and with the assistance of a force of hands, under Mr. Charles Roy, a block and tackle was fixed to a tree nearby and the horse hauled to safety after much trouble.

It was then found that he had not been injured in the least. IMPROVEMENTS WILL BE COMPLETED SOON Fair This Year Expected to be Larger Than Eier Before. A meeting of the board of directors of the Frederick County Agricultural Society was held at the Fair Grounds on Saturday afternoon and disposal made of some of the business which has to be transacted previous to the annual fair week.
