TWO WOMEN INJURED.
Mrs. Charles Hunnes and Miss Fannie Green Thrown from Wagon When Horse Runs Away.

Two women. Mrs. Charles Humes, about 6e of Hampton and her niece, Miss Fannie Green, were hurled to the street and considerably cut, bruised and otherwise injured in an exciting runaway in Main street, opposite the Hyde and Evans blocks, about 2.20 Friday afternoon. The women were driving down the street, headed toward the West Side. A service car of the Shore Line Electric Railway company was proceeding along the tracks on the west side of the street. hauling coal cars from the steam road on a trip to the power house at the Dyer dam. Coming up the street in his automobile was L.. A. Bradford On account of the space the cars were occupying in the street and observing that the approaching horse was fright close into the curb on the right hand side that his tires almost rubbed against the stones. The horse was being driven toward him, he says, we'll on what would be his left hand side. Later 1t was swung out to the right and then back to the left. By this time MT. Bradford had driven his car so close up that the horse came into col- iision with his left fender. doubling the metal out of shape. This smash caused the horse to wheel abruptly and upset the wagon, pitching its swung up onto the sidewalk at the Darbie homestead and ripped down a section of fence, getting back into the street and heading in the direction from which he had been coming when the accident occurred. A distance up the street the fleeing animal smashed the wagon against the pole and, freed, sped on until captured. The horse was not much injured.
 Mrs Humes and Miss Green were assisted into the millinary paflors of Mrs. Francis Ducharme and Dr. F. P. Todd was summoned to give them att tention. Both were suffering consid- erably from shock and from cuts and bruises. They were later taken to the home of Mrs. Charles Phillips, rel ative, in Plainfield.

LIGHT IS PROBLEM
Capital Authorities Seek to Re-
move Automobile Danger.
New Lens Offers Solution-From Los
Angeles Comes Word That Objec-
ton May Be Removed by
Frosted Belt on Glass.

Washington.-War has been de-
clared by the district authorities on
the binding headlights Of automobiles
within the city limits. The commits
sioners have instructed Major Sylves-
ter, superintendent of police, to con-
fer with the corporation counsel, and
formulate some regulation Of the pres
ent evil. The present traffic regula-
tons do not contain any provision for
the restriction of the use of such head
light which would hold in a court OF
law.
Much of the present danger arises
out of the carelessness of motorists
and pedestrians themselves. Motorists
spinning over the roads in the ada
cent parks and thoroughfares leading
into the city limits needlessly leave
their headlights burn in the adequate
ly lighted sections. Pedestrians
thoughtlessly walk in the middle Of
the road instead Of keeping to the
right and to the side Of the road.
Much of the present danger can be
eliminated by little care and thought,
but the problem of the nonglare head
light is twofold. First, the dazzling
rays must be eliminated or the use Of
such lights restricted in some way,
and second, the original Illuminating
qualities of the headlight must be con-
served.
Adequate light on the public high
ways is needed today more than ever
before The heavy black oiled roads
make it much more difficult to distin-
guish pedestrians on the highways
than it was in the early days Of the
automobile, before the roads were
oiled.
Still another factor in the problem
is the quietness of the present-day
motor 1t is now possible to creep up
within a few feet Of another car or
| pedestrian on the road without them
being aware of the approach Of a car.
Experiments are being conducted
| throughout the country, and the local
| officials are keeping in close touch
with every development. Until some
O0NlC0 lnNSulSu ISllSi Will nave "
| come through regulation.
From Los Angeles, CAL, comes the
word of a simple solution of the prob
| lem. The means consists of lens
nodded hemispherically and sand
| blasted to give a frosted appearance
except for a small oval space slightly
below the center, which is left trans
| parent. When seen from the height of
| the drivers seat the frosted surface is
| between the eyes and the filament and
one sees only the diffused circle of
light and the form Of the approaching
| car is visible.
The beam of light coming through
| the clear oval is centralized on the
road directly and far ahead instead of
/, as with the old style fiat glass over a
, widening arc. The road is made
brighter by the contrast and the diff
| fused light coming through the frosted
| surface enables the driver to clearly
see the front of his own car, even in
| the face of an approaching binding
| searchlight.

Whistling Develops Lungs.

A doctor has discovered that whis-
Ting is good for the health. 1t fills
the lungs with invigorating oxygen,
and this revivifies tagging spirits and
flabby muscles. Boys are prone to
be broader chested than girls, and
better constructed for deep muscular
tones because of the lung exercise
which accompanies whistling, and one
of the first things they try to do when
they've passed babyhood is to whistle
