the locality of First and Central ave-
nues, was thrown into q commoti0n
when two cars collided. Report has 1t
that the cars were coming north, one
trailing the other. The first "a had
stopped to let off Mrs. E. L. Garwood
and her sister, Mrs. E. l.. Longley.
Mrs. Garwood had reached the ground
but as Mrs. Longley stepped down
the second car ran into the forward
one, knocking her completely of the
running board and into the street.

weeks vacation with her sister from

Edward Shivers, who lives on East
Third avenue and who is building a
boat In his yard, went over with his son
to the woods near Stone Harbor the
fore part of the week, to cut "knees"
for his boat, and while engaged in
search for this particular kind of tree
he happened to kick over a large piece
of bark lying on the ground, when an
immense scorpion spraDg out. Mr..
Shivers did not know what it was and
began kicking at 1t. The scorpion
showed fight and in all probability Mr..
Ehivers would have aggravated this
dangerous insect to the point of it's
springing on him and infiicting a bite,
! which is fatal, had not some one hap
pening along told him what 1t q
His son, however, struck at it with The
ak, but missed his aim and the insect
scurried off into the deep underbrush.
These spiders are denizens Of the forests
of southern climates and no theory can
be advanced as to how it came to be
on this particular part of the coast.
They occasionally come to Philadel-
phia on fruit steamers from southern
ports.
