apparent warning, light haze will be
seen In the northern sky. and in TWEEN
ty-four hours the thermometer may
fall 80 degrees. The change is so sud
den and violent that travellers are fire.

In a head-on collision between two motor cars Of the s. F. P & P, rail way yesterday morning at about 8 o'clock. (. H. Stocking, sustained in- juries from which he passed away last evening at o'clock, at Mercy hos pital
 The accident occurred near the for est ranger station on Willow creek, at sharp curve on the roadway, and was unavoidable so far as Kelly Crozier, is to be considered, with whose motor car the trouble occurred.
 Stocking was employed as a cer- penter, but frequently made adjust ments to the mechanism of the motor cars. as well as performing repair work. Yesterday morning at an early he was in the yards, with his ma chine, that was not working satisfac- torily, when he asked Mir. Crozier, the section foreman of this division to pull him out on the grade with the latter's motor car, which was done. In Miller valley the additional load to Crozier's car proved too heavy, and Stocking was left behind, his car re- fusing to work, Crozier going down the line with his full crew to begin the days work. Reaching Willow creek. Crozier concluded to turn back toward the city, to offer assistance to Stocking, in case trouble continued with tine latter's car. Reaching the fatal point where the collision took place, Crozier instantly realized the danger impending, by seeing Stock ing on his knees looking under at the mechanism, in an effort to adjust the carburetor. Giving the alarm to Stocking, who was coming down the grade at terrific pace, about 75 feet away, Crozier stepped from his car, the impact following. Stocking was thrown 20 feet beyond Crozier's car, and an examination showed that he was injured from head to foot. He was immediately brought to the city. With Crozier at the time was a Mexi- can boy, who fortunately escaped with few bruises only, by remaining on the car.
 The deceased was member of the Knights of Pythias order, and leaves a widow and one son. The body is al Ruffner's.
