Motorcycle Rider Run Over by Big.
Car.

A siX-cylinder automobile driven by
K. A. Maloney, son of O. w. Maloney,
a local oil man, collided with mo-
torcycle on which II. A. Dulinsky Of
Turley was riding Tuesday afternoon
at the corner of Second and Elgin,
badly damaging the motorcycle and
injuring the rider seriously. one lex
and one hand were broken and an car
torn loose. The unconscious body of
Dulinsky was picked up and hurried
to the +. x S. hospital in Malone'y's
car.
The statement of those who saw
the occurrence seems to lay the blame
largely on Maloney, stating that the
car was moving more rapidly than 1t
should have been and that IL was a
few feet off its side of the street.
Hospital authorities stated last night
that Dulinsky was doing nicely.

The village OF Queen Anne on the
south Atlantic coast was named for
the queen who was on the throne Of
, England when the place was settled.
A natural son of King Charles III. fit
ted out the expedition that made a
village on what was then an uninhab-
tied ocean shore. He came out him
self, aud his progeny now mingled
with that of the other settlers. The
consequence was TINT at the middle Of
the nineteenth century every inhabi-
tant of Queen Anne could boast that
he had royal blood In his veins.
Notwithstanding the aristocratic at
mosphere of the place, nearly all the
men as soon as they became old
enough to strike out for themselves
left for more active regions, leaving
the women behind them. Occasionally
some persons who desired a restful
place to Live would settle in Queen
Anne, but after staying there some
time. finding that none of the residents
called on them, moved away. The
consequence of this considerable going
and inconsiderable coming was that, In
eral hundred maiden ladies', all of roy

One of those persons who had at
tempted TO make a home In queen
Anne was a lady named Rutledge, from
the state of Alabama. She was an Ill
valid, and her physician recommended
her TO change her residence to the sea-
shore Her husband was obliged to
make a trip to Europe and left home
the day his wife started for Queen
Anne, he going to New York for the
purpose of crossing the ocean.
Mrs. Rutledge, who was ladylike
woman, alone and needing attention.
was dismayed to find that, not having
royal blood in her veins like the others,
she was left out in the cold by the
citizens of Queen Anne. She remained
there, however, till her husband re-
turned to America, then Joined him at
their old home in Alabama, where she
died only a few weeks after their re-
union.
One day a gentleman aged forty,
we'll bred and apparently having plen-
ty of money, went to Queen Anne. look
ed over the place, expressed himself
pleased with it and gave out that he
intended to settle there. The ladies OF
the place soon learned that the new

OF state have put forth every effort
possible to secure a settlement of the
difficulties between Carranza and
Villa. whatever these may be. to estab-
lish a permanent and satisfactory gov
ernment
II would be interesting to know
the true inwardness of the situation
in MeXiCo-the impelling causes OF
the failure so far of a complete restora-
tion of civil government that would
be acceptable to the people and nee
essarily accepted by the constitution
alists' chiefs. There are various rum
ors abroad as to the variance which
exists but none of these can be sub
stantiated and are. therefore. not
worthy of credit. There must be
causes behind the scenes other than
the minor jealousy or ambition of in
dividuals. The government may Know
what these are. but it has not yet
deemed it proper to make them pub
lie.
The people of the United States
can only hope that some peaceful
methods may be adopted to settle the
difficulties which seem to be standing
in the way of the happiness and pros
perity OF the Mexican people. Inter
vention by the United States cannot
be considered as one of these methods
until all others have failed.
