CAR JUMPS BRIDGE
AND LANDS In TREE
John Cunningham Sustains Broken
Leg and Five Unknown 0ccu-
pants Are Bruised.
SEEK TO AVOID PUBLICITY

An automobile landed in a tree top
on the Willard road, about ten miles
west Of Omaha, and its occupants,
four men and two women, we're
dumped through the limbs Of the tree
into a thirty-foot gully, shortly after
midnight Saturday night. The tree
is probably all that saved them from
death.
One Of the occupants, John Cum
bingham. 1103 North Twenty-third
street, South Side, who operates a
saloon at Twenty-fourth and Q
streets, sustained a broken arm, an
injured leg and other hurts.
The other autoists sustained va
rious injuries. One Of the women is
said to have received a broken leg,
while the other is said to have suf-
fered wrenched back. All were
badly bruised and shaken up.
Cunningham, who is recuperating at the
home Of his brother. James Cunningham,
201 street. South Side. says he does not
know the names OF any of his fellow
passengers in the wrecked car. nor the
name Of the owner OF the car. He says
he was just riding in from Willard with
them and does not desire to talk further
Of the matter.
Some Of the injured people were taken
in other autos to the South Omaha hos
pital. where their injuries were attended
TO. Then they went away without giving
their names. the hospital authorities say.
and seemed to want to avoid publicity.
Roy and Harry Swanson, 2O1O California
street. were motoring along the same
road shortly after the accident happened,
and with other autoists helped the in
jured people out of their predlcament
Two Of the men were taken to Fortieth
and Farnam streets by the Swanson
brothers, where they caught a late street
car The two young women in the party
we're taken direct to the hospital, as their
injuries were considered the most serious
Goes over bridge.
The accident is supposed to have re-
suited from the speeding car striking a
piece Of timber that had been carelessly
left lying across the floor of a big steel
bridge. When the auto hit It the car
veered to one side and over the edge of
the bridge, where It hung suspended, one
end resting on the bridge and the other
end resting in the tree top.
According to Roy Swanson, one of the
women remained in the boughs of the
tree. while the other occupants OF the
auto were dumped through the limbs onto
the ground, the severity of their fall be-
ing greatly lessened by the tree Swan
son says he did not learn the names OF
any Of the injured people, nor the number
Of the auto that had the mishap. 1t was
badly wrecked.

CAR SHORTAGE IS
BECOMING ACUTE
Receipts Four Hundred Cars and All
Roads Have ALI They Can Pos
sibly Handle.
GRAIN IS FINDING READY SALE

The freight car shortage starts In
this week in a most acute form, with
every indication that IL is going to
keep on increasing. Omaha grain re.
ceipts yesterday were around 400
cars, with eqaully as great at the
other grain markets.
Railroad men figure that in hand
ling the cars in the most expeditions
manner 1t takes at least a week for a
freight car to make a round trip, and
as rule the time is about as long
again. Thus 1t is easy to be seen that
the Omaha market alone requires an
immense number of cars to handle
the grain in it's trade territory.
What is true of Omaha is equally true
of Chicago, Kansas City. st. Louis, Min
neapolis, Duluth. Winnipeg and the other
big grain markets, so that besides the
cars that are bringing the grain to the
markets. there is an equal number TAX
ing II to the sea ports and an equally
great number enroute back to the loading
points
Every road operating into Omaha is
making every possible effort to get cars
out into the grain territory and at the
same time every road finds itself short
on cars.
Receipts Are Heavy.
Right now the bulk OF the grain COM
ing to Omaha passes through the eie-
vators here. is blended and then goes out
on the milling in transit rate, destined
for gulf ports. Receipts are about the
heaviest in the history of the market.

Most people are honest; so, at least

his confidence. The reporter Of the
following incident was in a downtown
drug store when a stranger came in
with copy of a newspaper, and asked
change for a dime. He said that he
wanted to pay for his newspaper.
Someone remarked that for his part
he let the newsboys find their own
change.

The can and pile of newspapers
stood unprotected on the walk for
more than an hour. while their little
owner was at Sunday school. Men who
passed by and were attracted by the
rather odd little news stand would
stop, read the sign, pick up a paper
and put a nickel-and sometimes a
dime-into the little tin can. When the
boy returned from Sunday school he
found all his newspapers gone, and

WHY WORK FOR A LIVING?
Man Gets $40 a Week From City to
Prevent His Suicide.

A new way of making living has
just been revealed in Atlanta. At a
meeting recently of the Finance Com
mittee it was reported that C. S. Stat
ford, ex-proprietor of a paint shop, is
getting $40 week from the city to
prevent him from committing suicide.
Becoming i'll five years ago, he was
taken to the City Detention Hospital
and when he recovered he refused to
move out. Threatened with forcible
election, he declared he would commit
suicide. The health authorities were
in dilemma and finally decided to put
him on the payroll at $40 week.
The Finance Committee has since cut
this appropriation to $50 a month.
