- D. AV. Hull, of Waymart, ono of
our progressive farmers, was pre
vailed upon when a delegate to the
Horticultural Convention which met
at Tunkhannoek, to mako an effort
to organize a Horticultural Society
In AVayne county. The prevailing
opinion among experts who are fa
miliar with tho fine flavor and tho
splendid keeping qualities of AVayne
county apples, Is, that a society of
this kind would have a tendency to
increase tho acreage of fruit grow
ing In this county. The hilly, stony,
good grass growing character of our
soil offers wonderful opportunities
to U10 careful farmer along this
line. There Is a mulched orchard
near Plttston, tho owners of which
aro now marketing apples at 12.25
per bUBhel box. AVhy not AVayne

who aro In favor of forming a Hor
ticultural society In this county
kindly send names to D. AV. Hull,
AVaymart, or AV, H. Bullock, Hones
dale; that some action may be taken.

A QUEST.
A REMARKABLE HUNAAVAY.
The Horses Became Frightened nnd
Unmanageable.
On Sunday morning nbout 9:30
o'clock, Just before tho arrival of
tho D. & H. train, tho trneks of that
railroad woro monopolized .by n
runaway team, and tho lives of sov
cral peoplo were Jeopardized. Mrs.
James Mullen, her dnughtor, Allco,
and son, Leo, started from their
farm, Which is situated nbout n mile
and a half above Seelyvlllo, with a
team nnd n light bob-sleigh, con
taining two cans of milk, which they
Intended to lenve at Borden's milk
station nt East Honesdalo, and then
go to church. They had proceeded
as far as tho Wilbur placo at Seely
vllle when tho horses became fright
ened and unmanageable find the oc
cupants of tho sleigh were .thrown
out while tho team continued on
their way at a breakneck speed.
As they reached the tracks of tho
D. & II. railroad they took posses
sion or same and continuing their
mad flight over the ties they headed
for Honesdalo. Just before reach
ing tho bridge which spans the
Lackawaxen river near the T. B.
Clark & Co.'s factory, they were in
tercepted by Andrew Cowles, who
placed himself directly in the way
of tho runaways, compelling them
to swerve over to tho old gravity
track vhlch follows tho west bank
of the Lackawaxen. This net of
Cowles without a doubt prevented
the destruction of horses and sleigh,
for had they reached the bridge they
would have been destroyed; as It
was they mannged to keep between
the rails until they were stopped at
Honcsdale. One horse wns , badly
bruised and the other had a shoe
torn off by the ties. One milk can
and Its contents were missing while
the sleigh was badly damnged. The
occupants of the sleigh were all
badly scratched as they were thrown
upon the Icy roadway. Mrs. Mullen,
when picked up, was unable to
speak owing to the fright and in
juries received. Another son of Mr.
Mullen came down to Honesdale
and brought the team home. Con
sidering the teams' flight, tho route
they travelled over the railroad, Mr.
Mullen Is to be congratulated that
the lives of his family were spared
and that no greater damage was in
curred by the team. Mr. Cowles'
timely Intervention In preventing
the team taking the course they
were hended for, and swerving them
over to what proved a less danger
ous course, was a factor in saving
the team from total destruction.
