I'd like to see somebody with
nerve enough to turn the search

"For instance, the only Chicago

his automobile, attempted TO turn
south onto Twenty-first street from
Seventh avenue, but instead of get
ting by. he piloted his machine direct
ly into the car. OF course the pro-
gress of the Long View car was not
hindered, but that of the machine was
blocked for all time, as the condition
of the machine is something like a
scrap heap. The street car was struck
in the middle and the entire front OF
the auto was demolished Strange as
it may seem, neither Mr.. Hart nor the
two men who were riding with him
were injured Mr.. Hart said that he
could easily have driven straight
across Seventh avenue. or could have
turned down Twenty-frst street. and
thus avoided the accident. but he

WILLIAM BINGHAM Is
HELD FOR BURGLARY
Arrested With Tools Taken From
Carpenter Shop in His
Possession.

Hudson & Collins carpenter shop.
Seventeenth street and First ave
nue., was broken into last night
about o'clock, presumably by a
man named William Bingham, who
was arrested. Bingham was seen
hiding some carpenter tools on the
levee near the ferry dock and the
police were notified. Officers Kins-
ley and Bennett waited near until
Bingham showed up later in the
evening to get the tools and he was
arrested. The thief got into the
shop through a rear door which was
barred on the inside. He then pried
his way out with a stolen crowbar
He kept the bar, a saw, hatchet.
and II is supposed he took other
tools which have not yet been &C
counted for. Bingham is to be given
a hearing this afternoon or even
ing
