THE CAR BACKING UP.
1t Struck a Wagon mt MapIeton Last
Night.

A motor car struck a wagon at Maple
ton about 10 o'clock last night, knocking 1t
from the track. The driver was not hurt,
so it was reported, and there was no SER
ious damage done either to the car or
wagon. The car was running backward
when the accident happened. The street
railway employees explain that all Mapleton
cars turn at Crown Hill Cemetery, and
back up to the suburb, a distance of half
a mile. This is necessary as there is no
''turn-table' at Mapleton.
