CAR UPSETS

Driver Has TO Jump--Product
Is Wasted.

While attempting to turn around
shortly before o'clock this morn
ing at Elm and Smith streets, the
milk wagon of Henry Stimon was
struck by east bound trolley car No.
1910 and fatal accident was mar
rowly ayerted.
The car was west on Elm street
and according to those who saw the
accident the motorman gave no
warning bell but thinking that Sam
Stimon, the driver and son of the
owner, heard the car and would get
out Of the way, he started the motor.
The car struck the wagon as 1t
was on the turn and upset It, AS
Stimon turned upon the track the saw
the car and foreseeing that an accl-
dent was unavoidable, jumped from
the wagon just as the car struck it.
The wagon was upset and damaged
considerably by the collision and
many quarts Of milk spilled on the
pavement. The horse escaped with
out injury.
Spectators say that had 1t not been
for the presence of mind Of young Sti-
mon he would have been seriously
hurt when the wagon overturned, as
several large milk cans were thrown
about by the concussion which would
have injured the driver had he been
pinned inside when the accident oc-
Cured.

When officers Gutowskt and Dun
ham first went to the boarding house

the lock and finally struck one that
did the trick. The door was opened
and the men inside were asked as
to the whereabouts of Calenkash
They were told he had gone else
where. A search followed from one
end of the house to the other and
| Calenkash was found hiding under a
| large heap of pillows. He laid on the
bed that was so arranged as to give
| the impression that 1t was not in
| use.
Saved by Raising Arm.

two years old 1t is claimed he was
drunk on June IT when he attempt
ed to kill Geanczy on the street. 1t
is declared he pointed large cali,
bre revolver at Geanczy and fired
point blank at his breast. AS Gean'
czy raised his arms to protect him
self, the bullet entered his righ'
