Babe Has a Perilous Ride.

Takes a Ten-Mile Dash Behind a Runaway Horse.

     Little Irving Potter, aged 13 months, survived a perilous ride of ten miles hehind a frightened horse, which turned the buggy in a twenty-foot ravine, completely covering the child with wreckage. Mr. Potter and his wife drove to Keller station and when, assisting his wife to alight from the buggy the horse started. No one was in the buggy but the baby. The buggy and its precious freight were soon lost to sight. Potter hurriedly however, secured a horse and chased the runaway on horseback. After a ten-mile run the frightened horse turned the vehicle into the ravine. The buggy formed a covering for the child, and when the father reached the scene an hour later the child was found uninjured.
