IN AUTO ACCIDENT.
w. w. Walker Escapes Injury When
Car Skids Into Curb.

President w. w. Walker of the
South Shore railway, narrowly es-
capped serious injuries, or death, yes
terday, While he was returning TO Du-
luth from meeting of the Terminal
railway directors, when the large q
passenger automobile. in which he
was riding, skidded into the curb AT
John avenue and Broadway, says the
Duluth News Tribune.
The cal was turning the corner from
Broadway on to John avenue. going
north when the car crashed into the
curb breaking the axle of the front
wheels. The recent sprinkling Of the
street was the direct cause of the skid d.
ding. None of the occupants of the
car were hurt, except for a slight jar
ring. Those in the car claim that they
were running at a speed of only five
miles while rounding the curve.
Another narrow escape from seri-
Gus accident occurred on Superior
approach to the Interstate bridge.
when the big Twohy Elmon auto
truck ran into and smashed a tele-
phone pole, which was the only thing
that stopped the truck from topping
TO the ground some distance below.
Robert Burns. the driver of the
truck, claims that the accident was
due tc the fact that a car owned and
driven by J. G. Crowley of the Peo-
pies Telephone company. ran mp be-
hind and passed him OF the right side
instead of the left striking the hub
Of one of the front wheels of the
truck. causing 1t to leave it's course.
The car will he out of commission
for a few Gays. as the radiator was
smashed.

NEW SIEGE GUNS PLANNED.
Howitxsr to Fire a 0-Pound Project
lie Designed for the Army.

lie Designed for the Army.
Washington. Oct. s.-The old siege
ordnance of the army, which consisted
of 5-inch guns and finch howitzers.
Is to be discarded for weapons now
being designed. Most important in
the new equipment is 7-inch howitz-
er, which will fire projectile of $50
pounds. This gun will be the mini
mum size of the siege material to be
developed under the direction of the
chief of ordnance. The carriage for
this howitzer is so heavy that IL will
be necessary to remove the howitzer
from the carriage, which will be
drawn by eight horses. The gun will
be placed on a special vehicle and will
be transported by an equal number of
horses The 4.7-inch field gun and the
6-inch field howitzer are now classed
as field artillery. because it has been
found that each gun on its own car
riage can be drawn rapidly enough to
keep up with infantry on the march.
Two batteries have been equipped
with the new 4.7-inch long recoil field
gun, one at Fort Sill and the other
at West Point The gun at Fort sill
is used in connection with the new
school for field artillery fire. as well
as In the development of drill regula-
tions for material of that type.

The biennial national convention of

of these was the formation of a feder-
alton of Catholic women's charitable
organizations. The country was divid-
ed into four districts. with chair
man in each district as leader. and
the districts were sub-divided in order
to facilitate the work.
Equally important was the urging
Of the adoption of the white and gold
badges for the protection of women
while travelling. This work is being
done in cooperation with the travel
ing aid societies.
Other topics discussed at the meet
ing were means of housing and sani-
tation, especially among the poor, the
care of dependent children and de-
pendent women. methods of care and
training for defective children. work
among criminals. how to look after
families when the bread winner Is in
prison, various phases of settlement
work, the white slave question and
the use of schools as settlement helps.
other aspects of charitable work un-
der the auspices Of the Roman Catho-
lie church were touched upon.
