DRIVER IN CLOSE CALL TO DEATH IN A RUNAWAY FRANK SOBIESKI STRIKES HEAD ON PAVEMENT WHEN HORSE TAKES FRIGHT AT A PASSING AUTOMOBILE

Frank Sobieski, employed as a driver by Dempskey Mrotek was injured in a runaway accident that might have resulted in his death late yesterday when his horse, frightened by a passing automobile on Tenth street bridge, made a wild dash south on the street and Sobieski was thrown from the wagon to the pavement, striking on his head. The man was picked up unconscious and removed to the hospital where examination showed his injuries not to be serious.

Sobieski was thrown from the wagon at the corner of Tenth and Commercial street, striking the brick pavement on his head, a gash being cut in the scalp and his face badly bruised. The horse continued its mad run and collided with a horse and wagon tied in front of the Stein and Goldstein Second Hand store, both horses being thrown to the pavement and the wagon of the Second Hand store being partially demolished.

Although Sobieski escaped fatal injury, he might easily have been killed in his fall to the pavement, as he plunged headlong from the wagon. The horse was not injured but the Stein and Goldstein animal was severely cut about the head and side in the collision which occurred. Sobieski was painfully bruised and it will be some time before his injuries heal.
