Car Which G. c. Locke Tried to
Pass When He Was Killed.

Last Sunday afternoon George G.
Locke a prominent banker OF Lake
Charles, La, who was in an automo-

with Bryan young folks Of which par
~ he was a member. In describing
the accident this morning young BIT.
tie said II was the most horrible
thing he had ever witnessed in his
life. He said the Boyles car which
was ahead OF the bankers was going
about thirty or thirty-fiye miles an
hour and the big car came up be
hind them and without ever sound
ing a warning tried TO dart by at a
speed OF at least forty or possibly
forty.five miles an hour. The Boyles
car pulled just a little to the left n
let them pass and Just as they were
beside them the big car struck soft
dirt. gave a lurch and turned com
pletely over twice. Mr. Locke's
head was crushed and his brains
oozed out and was not recognizable
to the other two men. The Boyles
car was stopped and they picked ~
the two other men. who we're YER,
seriously injured. and carried then
on to a hospital at Galveston whil'
part OF the party remained with thu
dead man until friends could &c
there.
Mr.. Bittle has been In Houston
since Saturday In company with SOM
other Bryan young people attending
house party at the home OF Jarre
Boyles.

CHAMBER SETS DATES
FOR WINDOW DISPLAY
Store Fronts to Be Ablaze in Beauty
Next Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday.

Secretary Thomas Grant OF the Cham.
Der of Commerce announced yesterday
that the Window Display Contest which
the Chamber is conducting among the
merchants of town, with !. c. S. Schol-
arships as prizes, will be held next Mon
day. Tuesday and Wednesday. The win
dows VIII be disclosed to the public al
1880 o'clock Monday evening and will con-
tinue until Wednesday evening at the
same hour. 1t Is planned to have the
windows viewed by the Board OF Judges
whose names will be announced later
and the awards made public Wednesday
evening.
The contest was the chief topic OF
conversation around the city yesterday
Perhaps no event has ever been arranged
in this city which has met such instant
and popular favor. The cooperation
which the merchants are rendering Is
most pleasing to those in charge of the
contest. One of the most popular fea-
lures Is the list OF prize scholarships
in the International Correspondence
Schools of Scranton which will be award
ed to the best five windows-one in each
OF the five classes.
The entry list will remain open until
next Friday night. The Chamber ex-
tends an invitation to every merchant
in town to participate. There are al
ready $50 merchants entered.
