INJURED IN AN AUTO CRASH
Thomas Sullivan. Has Miraculous Es.
cape From Death When Ford
is Wrecked.

Thomas Sullivan had a miraculous
escape from death shortly before three
o'clock Wednesday morning when the
Ford machine in which he was driv-
ing alone left the road on the hill
north Of the H. G. Borgmann farm
south of the city, turned turtle and
was reduced to mass of wreckage.
Sullivan owes his life to the fact that
he was thrown out as the car turned
over and escaped with slight bruises
on the head and a sprained ankle. Sui
livan was running out to the Charles
Veeder place where a dance was in
progress to bring some of the guests
into town. He says one of the doors
swung open and he reached to close
the portal. In doing so he lost con-
troll of the wheel, the machine crash
ed into the bank, swerved to the other
side of the road, careened along for
about 100 feet and finally came to a
standstill upside down and headed in
the opposite direction to that Sulli-
van was driving. The injured man
was brought into the city by Cassius
Jardine and after treatment by DR..
Dubois was able to go to his home.

FIsH-HOOK THIEF AT WORK
Robbery of Melrose PostOffice Last
Friday Bears Earmarks of Old a
Timer.-MOney Orders Stolen.

Detectives believe the "fish-hook''
burglar, whose series of robberies. in
Minneapolis two years ago have never
been solved, has returned to his cid
haunts. Their suspicion is based upon
a report of the robbery of two books
of mail order blanks at the postofflee
at Melrose Friday.
While Postmaster J. H. Seal was
busy with the noon mail, the two
books were drawn from a counter and
through narrow opening, some sort
OF a pole with hook being used.
The books bore serial numbers COM
mencing with 841O1 and $4,000, res
pectively, each containing so blanks.
Postal authorities who notified the
police feared some of them would be
forged in Minneapolis. Persons OBJ
tanning postal money orders bearing
any of the above serial numbers are
asked to communicate with the police
or postal department.
Police records show that a number
of robberies occurred here that were
classed as the "fish-hook" series,
about two years ago.
