DASTARDLY ATTEMPT
TO WRECK AN AUTO
Woodford's Ford Car Takes a
...s.. .ss- Leap Through Space.

Sunday evening when George T.
Woodford was returning from Brook
vile In his Ford auto with party Of
young people, he had narrow escape
from wrecking his car and serious
personal Oinjury, Some one with
malicious or criminal intent had placed
across the road on the hillside just
east OF the old Levi Schuckers farm
four or five fence rails, bound together
with wire. Mr.. Woodford was coming
down the hill at high speed and though
he saw the dark line across the road
thought it merely a shadow or weeds
thrown across. He struck the rails
full speed, the light Ford car bounded
high in the air like Breton during Old
Home Week aud landed on all four
wheels fifteen feet further down the
road. He stopped the machine at once
to investigate and see If any breakage
had occurred. While he and the young
men in the party were examining the
rails, they noticed emerging from the
bushes on the hill above them two and
possibly three men. Visions of hold
up flashed through their minds
and in less than jiffy they we're
aboard the Ford and making to-
wards Reynoldsville at little the
highest speed that ever an auto
covered that billy road When they
got back to Reynoldsville and drew
their first full breath after starting,
the auto was examined and notwith-
standing the marvellous aerial feat not
the slightest damage was noticeable.
Whether the rails were placed across
the road with intent to hold up and rob-
some one, or merely in spirit OF
fiendish malice, Mr.. Woodford is un-
able to say, but rather believes the
parties in hiding placed the obstruction
there with the idea Of ditching another
big auto which had ''scorched"
through that section In the afternoon
and that he suffered for another
persons sins.

FOUNDATIONS LAID
FOR new MACHINES
The Work of Enlarging the Blaw
Plant Now in Progress.

A crew OF men are now employed at
the Blaw Collapsible Steel Centering
Company's plant laying foundation for
new machinery which will be shipped
from the Rankin plant OF the concern
within the next two weeks. The
company expects to install In the local
plant all OF the machinery and equip
ment, including the power plant, which
was formerly used In the leased Rankin
plant, and that equipment is as
large as the original amount
oil machinery in the Reynoldsville
''steel plant" The capacity of the
local plant will thus be doubled.
Thirty skilled employees Of the Rankin
plant, most of whom are married and
have families, will come to this place
within the next few weeks, and among
them Charles Crates, who was SUPER
intendent Of the Rankin plant and will
be one of the two superintendent in
charge OF the combined plants at Reyn-
oldsville. A number Of the Rankin
men were In Reynoldsville last week
looking for houses to rent.
During the last ten days crew OF
men have put new Turnerized roofing
on every building al the plant, includ-
ing the office, and have otherwise re-.
paired the buildings. The plant is In
better physical condition now than it
ever was before.
Several changes have been made in
the interior Of the foundry which gives
the employees more room, and 1t is
planned in the near future to build an
addition to the east end OF this building
,over the railway switch, which will
permit the big travelling crane to run
farther down the track and permit un-
loading Of cars at point where 1t will
not interfere with the operations OF
employees in the foundry end.
The plant has been operating steadily
during the last few months with from
100 to ITO employees and work has been
progressing very smoothly. The men
are we'll satisfied with their treatment
by the company and believe, with the
balance Of the citizens OF Reynoldsville,
that 1t is the best industry that ever
struck the town.

Rose ard Fox for the Justices court and
after releasing Fox turned to let Rose
out OF the cell without holding on to
the first prisoner. Fox was standing
hat in hand near the door and no sooner
saw the constable's back turned than he
made dash for liberty, raced up the
alley to the Baptist church, down
another alley to the r. & F. G. Rail-
road and home. Constable Higgins
weighs about twice what Fox does and
the pace was anything but comfortable
to him but he trailed along behind and
kept his eye on the fugitive. Fox made
for his home and was not In sight when
the constable arrived but the latter
searched the house from garret to
cellar and finally found his man crouch
down In a potato barrel in dark
crner Of the cellar, covered with some
Id burlap bags. Higgins was armed
