fallen into the hands OF the police.
At first, Lieut. Rutledge was puz-
zled by the frequent requests but he
finally happened TO think OF the date.
and then he laughed.
Now, when anxious Negroes side

have no gravel, the mud and chuck
holes are of unknown depth. On
18th street the car showed what it
would do. Twice 1t had to be run
up over the Garden Road car line
grade, at an angle of about 25 or
80 degrees 1t plowed through the
mud hub deep, until at last the axels
were dragging, and three of the hubs
were under water. The car was stuck
on hogback in the road, with the
back wheel spinning with nothing to
get a hold on. There was an eight
fot street car grade on one side, a
fence on the other and an impossible
road ahead, in fact a team hadn't
been over it for a month. There was
nothing to do, but to take down
fence, pry the car up and put fence
boards under the wheels to give it
traction. In this manner the car was
finally extricated. 1t was run the
street car grade and along the track
for couple of blocks until a. cross
street was reached On Highland
avenue the car slipped and slid and
went through mud to the hubs, but
the engine never missed fire once.
The working of the little car was a
revelation to the writer. Mr. Priehs,
Of the Salem Auto Garage, was driv-
ing, and If a car can be taken any
where he can take It,
