While ON their way to Bayfield, yes
terday afternoon, DR.. A. w. Robbins
and family suddenly found them
selves feeling the landscape instead
of viewing it. When the machine
was climbing one of the hills on the
way, the engine did not work satis-
factorily and the doctor commenced
to back down the hill to get bet
ter start. One of the wheels of the
car ran up on high place on the
bank and in an instant the members
of the family found themselves occu-
pying the top instead Of the seat, the
machine having tipped clear over.
Fortunately not one of the occupants
was injured. The fact that the top
was up and the machine was moving
slowly combined to prevent any seri-
Gus results.

the Mexicans.
When the constitutionalists get into
power, all of Huerta's concessions will
be cancelled 1t is declared that Am
erica has never asked that Carranza
or any one close to him be made pro-
