Judge s. B. Snyder of the superior court
has reluctantly admitted that he has marred
his record as an automobile owner and
driver. Until Friday night his record
showed that he had never had any kind OF
an accident; that he had never went within
an inch of the speed limits; that he never
lost his patience or his machine it's docle
tractability. and that he never caused any
living creature, mankind or animalkind, ia
, move excitedly out OF his path. He has
, been obliged to confess when confronted
by a repair bin for 500 that he backed his
machine into another mans auto and
: smashed 1t considerably. But he is able to
prove by several Rffidavits that when the
accident occurred his auto was moving al
a speed Of less than q quarter OF a mile an
hour. 1t happened at the Northwestern
railroad crossing on Broadway. Judge
Snyder was going to Omaha and reached
the car tracks just as the gatemen signaled
an approa ching train. The descending gate
would have struck his machine IL he had
not backed. But Immediately behind him
was j. C. Dixon OF Hutchinson, Kan, and
tho Jayhawkers machine got a hard buml
that cost 500 to repair
