On Saturday night Mi’S Trauvetter, of Queen street, Onehuuga, had a sensational experience. _ With her baby in arms she was in the act of boarding a down car at Beatty’s corner, when the ear suddenly moved on. Mrs Trauvetter was dragged off her feet, but continued to hold the hand-rail with one hand, and the child with the other. In this fashion she was dragged along for about 50 yards. Fortunatley the Inkerman street is very close to Beatty’s corner, and as the car had to puil up there it did not get properly under way, alhtough when the mother and her chlid got clear it had not quite pulled up. For a time Mrs Trauvetter lay in a stunned condition. She was considerably cut about and suffered greatly from shock. The little one escaped without serious injury. An extra pair of trousers as a stand-by is a good investment.
