SUIT FOR
$4,000 DAMAGES

Chas. Tramp. administrator for the
estate of his brother, the late Ben
jamin F. Tramp who was accidentally
killed at the brick and tile plant, as
the result of a defective freight car,
a few months ago, has filed suit
through his attorneys Mantz &
White of this city and II. M. Boor-
man of Atlantic in the Audubon
County District Court, against the
Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Ry.
Co, and the Chicago Northwestern
Ry Co.
- The petition has just been filed
in the Office of the Clerk of the
District Court, and asks $4,000
from the above railroad companies
as a result of the death of Mr. Tramp.
The petition is lengthy one and sets
forth many allegations upon which
this suit is based. The plaintiff
claims to have sufficient evidence TO
prove that the car which was respon-
sible for the accident, was defective.
The suit will no doubt attract wide
attention when it comes up for trial
which will probably not be until the
term following the December term.
Both companies will, without ques-
ton, send their best lawyers to Aud
ubon TO represent them. The estate
has engaged the best legal talent OBJ
tainable and there is every reason to
believe that the case will be hard
fought one every inch of the way.

REGRET TO LEAVE AUDUBON

Mr.. and Mrs. ]. Kuhn departed
Tuesday evening for Holly Wood,
Calf, where they intend making their
future home. Mr.. and Mrs. Kuhn
have been residents of Audubon so
long that it will seem unatural for
them not to be here. During their
long residence in Audubon, they have
surrounded themselves with close
friends, all of whom regret their de-
cision to leave the town they had
learned to love so we'll All join,
however, in wishing these excellent
folks continued health in sunny Cal
ifornia and hope they will conclude
to make their visits to Audubon quite
frequent. The Republican will make
weekly visits to their home to keep
them informed concerning the hap
penings of Audubon and surrounding
territory.
They are making the move or
der to be near their daughter, Mrs.

HEAD-ON COLLISION
EARLY SUNDAY NIGHT

A head-on collision early Sunday
evening might have proved serious,
but fortunately no one was injured.
A Ford run-about driven by Garland
Curtis, was coming to town at about
seven o'clock The lights failed to
work and as it was quite dark, the
driver failed to see anything in the
road. AS the car was descending the
Bradleyville hill, they met Geo. Som
ers in single rig, and not seeing the
horse, the car ran squarely into him.
The animal was thrown to the ground
after turning complete somersault
and Mr.. Somers was thrown from the
buggy, but neither the horse nor Mr..
Somers were injured. AS luck would
have it, the Ford was running at a
low rate of speed, or the results
might have been entirely different.
The horse received few slight cuts,
but was able to walk to town where
DR.. Weighton rendered professional
services the following morning. The
Ford belonged TO Marsh Jones, but
Garland and a couple of boy friends
had secured it to take little Joy ride.
No blame is placed on the young men,
for their escape from injury was as
miraculous as that of Mr.. Somers.

MONTHLY MEETING OF
COMMERCIAL CLUB

The regular monthly meeting of the
Audubon Commercial Club was held
at the K. of p. hall Monday evening.
number of the faithful were pres
ent to transact the usual routine of
business.
A number of important matters
were discussed, among them the paw
ing, which is to take place next year,
and the parking of automobiles in the
center of the street. This is getting
to be popular plan in all cities and
towns. By parking the cars in the
center OF the street, the street in
front OF the places of business are
not blocked and permits those who
wish to enter, or load goods, to do
so without interference. Heretofore
the cars have been backed up to the
curbing. which has caused consider
able annoyance to others who wished
to enter the business houses on Broad
way.
The new plan is inaugurated for
the purpose of giving each and every
one the same consideration. We be-
lieve all automobile owners will glad
ly assist in making it success. The
Club appointed a committee of ten
members, all of whom were owners
of automobiles and requested them to
park their cars in the center of the
street on Broadway. Throughout the
entire day other automobile owners
did likewise, and it looks now as
though the plan was going to be as
popular in Audubon as it is in Omaha,
Carroll, Adair, Stuart, and other cit
les in this section of the state.
We trust that our farmer friends
will fall in line and help to establish
the new order of things at the earl
lest possible moment
