Miss Fannie Jones, who recently
won "Elderone" the fast bay gelding,
at rattle in Dover on a single so cent
chance, has parted with him for a sum

brated horse was Mr. Thomas J. Muir

AUTOMOBILE OASHES INTO
TEAM INJURIES OCCUPANTS
COWARDLY ACCIDENT HAPPENS ON THE
STATE ROAD NEAR MIDDLETOWN.
When Within a Mile and Half of MiddIetOwn
Auto Dashes into Team, Throwing 0ccup-
ants Out and Iniurlng them Severely.

Residents of this vicinity are arguing
with considerable vehemence against
the carelessness and total disregard
for passing teams with which automO-
biles are driven up and down the state
road by city sports. The lack of proper
consideration will lead to movement
for more stringent laws from our
legislature. Sunday three men in a
big yellow automobile ran down a horse
and carriage near Middletown and
threw a colored man, woman and two
children from the carriage into the
roadway and injuring them. The VIC
Tins are Robert Jones, his wife and
two children. They were driving to
church in dearborn owned by Nehe-
Iniah Davis, farmer, when the auto
mobile came bowling toward them at
high speed about one and one. half miles
this side of Middletown. Without
Stacking its speed the automobile
plunged into the horse knocking it
aside and upsetting the light dearb born.
The motor car never stopped, but the
driver increased the speed and soon
disappeared. Jones and his wife and
children were hurled heavily into the
roadway. Fortunately the children
escaped injury by some miraculous in
tervention, but Jones, who is so years
old, was badly bruised and had his
right ankle cut and sprained and is
scarcely able to walk. His wife had 6
rib broken and her head was cut. DR.
G.. B. Pierson, of Middletowu, was
summoned and attended the injured
couple. They are N destitute circum
stances. The automobile continued
through Middletown and toward Viii
mington after the accident. 1t at
tracted attention of residents becaus,
of the high speed at which it was bein:
driven through Middletown streets
Who the party in charge of the auto
mobile was could not be learned bu
an effort is being made to secure hi
arrest.
