Joseph Wolte, son of Councilman George Wolfe, of St. Clair, Pa., recently returned from Francer"had one of the oddest experiences of the yrar, as his comrades tell it. Wolfe is an expert horseshoer, and while putting a shoe on a horse in France, he was astonished when the animal collapsed on to him.
