Show RUNAWAY. Last Saturday's runaway run-away came upon the afternoon of Sunday. Sun-day. Doubtless a loosened cog in the wheel of time rendered tho chango of timo necessary. Imagine yourself dashing aloog behind a spanking team of bays speeding down First South street in all the glory of the occasion; and, then, picture yourself tumb'od heels and head, saos ceremony, sans oare, sans everythiog, into tho soft arms of muddy earth. Suoh was the fate of the gentlemanly rider of Sunday. Sun-day. 0 ur reporter followed the team five blocks and then bade thorn a sad farewell. Where they went deponent laycth not. Busv. Everbody appears to bo busy, and the crowded s'ate of the streets gives to our city a metropolitan aspect. Improvements, renovations and building aro to bo seen on every hand, and tho hammer, saw and plane of tho carpenter heard at evory turn. In order to realise the amount of business busi-ness being done at present in the building build-ing line, it would be ceooReary to per- 1 ambulate around every block of the city; and then we doubt if a full idea could be obtained. Bariatt's Stock is next to Post Office. o'2 |
