NEW BROWN DIRECTORIES

The new telephone directories be-
ing issued by the Brown Telephone
Co., from the Reflector press give
over 100 subscribers. This shows
an increase of approximately 100
over the number of phones listed in
the directory of year ago.
Much improvement has been made
ty the telephone company during the
past year. Underground conduits
have been laid throughout the bust
ness district and many feet of cable
strung in the residence sections.
Another noticeable change in the

HIS AUTO TURNED OVER.
Loaded Car Crawded Into Ditch by
a Hay Rack.

w. H. Amsterdam and family from
north of town, miraculously escaped
injury this morning when the ma
chine in which they were riding
turned over in the ditch.
The accident occurred on the road
Just north of the cemetery. A hay
rack which they were passing failed
to give half of the road, and in try
ing to avoid frightening the horses
by running too close, Mr.. Ausherman
ran the machine too near the ditch
and the wheels went over, turning
the car upon the side. Owing to the
extreme low speed at which the car
was running and the good luck of
the occupants, no one was injured.
Mr.. Ausherman said this morn
ing: "The beaten track of the road
where we attempted to pass the hay
rack runs close to the west ditch
and the boy driving the rack gave me
only half the track, not half the

road. AS we came abreast of the
team they began cutting up, and
fearing they might run away with
the boyI turned out a little too far
and dropped into the ditch"
1t is very unfortunate that an
accident of this kind should happen
when Mr.. Ausherman was so gem
erously attempting to prevent trou-
BILE for the party at fault.
The machine was slightly injured:
a bent axle being the only material
damage. Common courtesy and good
will always prompts accommodation
on the highway and very seldom does
the driver of team or car find
driver who refuses to let one be-
hind going faster pass or fails to
give a generous share of the road
in meeting.

in way different from the way

the man who doesn't take the pa
per, but who comes in and kicks on
its policy. In the language Of Kansas
these doctors are trying to play the
game without buying any chips.
They refuse themselves to advertise,
and yet undertake to dictate to the
newspaper what class Of advertising
It shall receive, II is a nervy hold
up. and while the Gazette has no
idea what stand Mr. Capper will take
he will please the newspapers by tell
ing the Golden Belt Medical society

to advertise, Mr.. Capper's paper
would have to suspend publication
