A most peculiar accident occurred in the main thoroughfare of Wagga, N.S.W., last week. Crackers frightened a horse attached to a cab, and it bolted. After going a few yards it collided with a stationary sulky, in 'which a boy named Monks was sitting. The impact threw the boy out of the sulky, and he landed in the cab, which, after going a few yards further, collided with a verandah post and was smashed. Neither the boy-, horse, nor driver was injured, though the boy was a good deal shaken by his peculiar experience.
