SHE SAT ON HER GRIP.
Old Lady Waited Placidly for a Car
While Police Ran.
The police ambulance made an exciting run through crowded streets to Fifth and Gillis streets last night. Three babes had narrow escapes from being run over and several grown persons were badly frightened, and all for a "water haul." Af Fifth and Gillis streets an old woman, evidently from the country, and carrying a large grip, seated herself on the grip in the middle of the street and waited for a street car.
A man saw her and thought she was ill. He telephoned for a police ambulance. When the ambulance arrived the old woman was still sitting in the street. She was very much surprised when she learned what had happened and hastened to inform the police surgeons that nothing was wrong with her.
