BROKE HIS LEG, Harry Faqua, Colored, Has a Leg Broken, be as The Team is Supposed to Mave Gotten Frightened at a This forenoon Barry and Henne+ berger’s big team of black horses ran way near Sixth and Jones streets about #:30 o'clock, There was e big load of feed stuff on the wagon, which was being taken to the depot ‘The horses took fright at atrain, it is supposed, and threw the colored driver violently out, breaking his leg. His name is Haary Fuqua, and it is not the first time the team ran away with him. The feedstuff was scattered all over the Sixth ward, itis said, but this is probably an exaggeration. The damage to the wagon will be consid- erable. The wagon was one.of the large coal yehicles, Jonded with sacks ot Tran and meal for Capt. Farley. When the horses shied as the engine passed, otie of the sacks fell on their feet, aud the driver was thrown, the wheels passing over his leg. Dr. White was called and dressed the injury, and it was found that the flesh was ground and the bone was broken. This afternoon it is thought that the limb will have to be amputated.
