Yesterday afternoon about o'clock
Mrs. Frank Peppard was driving her
auto down Sixth street between Doug

cided to turn around. A street car
was running slowly down the street
in the same direction, but Mrs. Pep

cut off the juice in his car and ap-
pplied the brakes, but something
seemed to go wrong with the ma
chine. 1t stopped directly in front of
the car, which was, fortunately, near

The fender of the street car picked
up the rear wheels of the auto and
swung it around parallel with itself,
as if it had been trained to the act.
Mrs. Peppard waved a farewell and
proceeded up the street, the auto ap-
parently having received no damage.
