2 DYING FROM
TROLLEY CRASH
20 Hurt in Accident Near
Pfcton Last Night.

Two men were probably fatally in
jured and more than twenty hurt
near Picton about $50 O'Clock last
night when a Public Service trolley
car collided with the ear of another
car, whose guide rod pole had jump
ed the electric cable and therefore
stopped the car. The cars were fill
ed with employees of the Garwood
plant returning to their homes. For
a few minutes there was a panic in
broken glass. The wrecked car had
left Woodbridge Creek bridge earlier
in the day and was returning from
Westield by Picton to Railway.
Three doctors and ambulances
were rushed from Railway. The
more seriously injured were carried
into nearby homes while others were
taken to a hotel. First aid was
given in the street.
Those who it is thought will die
are:
Thomas Carroll 55 Lafayette

Edward Scheuer, Union street,
Railway, skull fractured.
Carroll was rushed. to the A1exia
Brothers Hospital, in Elizabeth, in
the automobile Of A.. w. Foster.
Scheuer was taken to his home.
The trolley carr were crowded
with workers employed in Garwood
plant and were on their way home
when the crash came. The car ahead
was a regular while the rear car was
a special put on to carry the workers
to Railway. In rounding a curve,
the guide pole of the car ahead
jumped from the wire. Before the
conductor could replace it, the trail
the car ahead.
The impact threw the passengers
of both cars to the floor. A panic
followed. Men and women fought
to gain the doors and in the mad
rush several were trampled. The
cars were filed with flying glass and
splinters. Women, like the men,
jumped from the windows.
The motorman of the real a
saved his life by leaping. He was
badly bruised. The conductor, how
ever, was servely injured. The crew
of the first car escaped injury.
A hurry call for aid was sent to
Railway. DR.. Washington was the
first of the physicians to arrive. Many
of the women had tainted. Neigh
bors did what they could to revive
them, and supplied linen to bandage
the wounded.
The accident occurred in Clark
Township just over the Railway city
line. Traffic was tied up for many
hours.

nuisance caused from his livery
stable is abated. He was given ten
days to comply with the decision of
the Board Of Health and if suitable
abatement Is not effected by that
time, Polkowitz will be liable to a
suit. The nuisance complained of
is a serious one and is a flowing
stream which runs as far as the eel
lar Of Simmen's bakery. AS this
bakery is the cleanest and one of the
best in this city the board is determ-
ined to give it all the protection pos
sible. If the building of a good man
ure pit and the filling in of dirt does
not abate the nuisance, Mr.. Polko-
witt will be ordered to have a sewer
built and make other improvements.
Medical Inspector Dr.. Lund gave
opinions In this matter.
The case of Michael Zylka, who
has what the board considers a salts
faction pit in his yard in
Buckingham avenue, was given much
consideration because it is claimed
the pit is not built in the right place.
Every manure pit must be built 5
feet from any property line, 20 feet
from any street line, and 40 feet
from any door or window, according
to the health board code. 1t appears
that Mr.. Zylka constructed the pit
without knowing the regulations of
the health board and believed that
the permit Of Building Inspector Nc
Namar was sufficient. For this rea-
son, no action was taken against Mr..
Zylka and a thorugh investigation Of
the case will be made.
Michael Chryn, Of 668 Catherine
street, was allowed until April 1, to
remove flushing closets which are in
the yard in the rear of his house.

THE RENEGADEs.

" HE last OF the nsng horn steers
were they,
The last of the herds. far flung
That were trailed from the Rio
Grande way
In the days when the west was young.
They had cunningly lodged the roundup
hands
When the range was combed in the
spring,
But we drove them at last to final
stand.
God. the race was noble thing!
They had fed through the stunted cedar
trees
That dotted the mesa top.
But with heaving sides and trembling
We brought them at last to stop.
But the fire was bright In each wild eye.
And they beloved and paved thesdirt
And they flung their spreading horns on
high
A. they ended that last long squirt.
Then our grizzled foreman. Texas Bill,
Spoke up in voice most queer.
He said: II know we've got to kill
The last durn renegade steer,
But I've seen the time when their like was
strung
For miles on the Chisholm trail:
When you heard the songs the cowboys
sung
To the herds when the moon was pale
i've seen the time when their spreading
horns
Was thick as the scrub oak trees
When they growed like the prickly cactus
thorns
On million steers like these.
30 I'm goin' to hit the back trail here.
You cowboys can do the rest.
And I'll know when ! hear your shots
ring clear
It's the last Of the old time west"
