A rather thrilling ride in which

roadster, made rather perilous pas
sage Monday afternoon when they
climbed the curbing at Maple and
Second streets and ran into the Kent
building on the corner.
Two school children ran into the
street in the path of the oncoming
automobile on Maple street and IN
order to escape running the little
ones down the doctor turned abruptly
from the street and after describing q
rather devious course ended up with
the car incauable of proceeding furth-
err against the corner building. The
front axle was bent. the steering ap-
paratus was rendered hors de combat
and two springs in front were broken.
In running along. the side of the build

PANTS Of the car were injured though
the general shaking they received was
one hundred percent for their money.
IT was necessary to send out an s.

to the garage for the necessary re-
pairs.
The doctor maintains stoutly that
the accident was not a deeply laid
plot against the county attorney. put.

he would not be a party to any con.
