Truck Wins Boston Test
Over Three-Horse Wagon

Boston Of an interesting test OF the
Smith Form-a-Truck over three
horse wagon. under the same condi-
lions and the same load.
This test was conducted by the Boston
Ice Company who were able TO cover
with the Smith Form-a-Truck a hill
route with the greatest eaSe. although
the truck was carrying a ton and a
half OF ice. This work formerly re-
quired three horses and over three times
the length OF time to make the same
route. One hill in particular which was
made with the truck was one which
had never been attempted with horse
drawn wagons as this was thought i'm
possible.

truck unfit to be run on the streets
was uncovered yesterday by a coro-
ner's jury in St. Luke's hospital. NThe
truck killed a man before Invent a
half block from the Fair warehouse,
Wednesday.
The driver had driven an auto
truck just once before in his life be-
fore the accident. He had worked
fourteen hours for the Fair the day
before and was starting out on the
second day when the accident hap
pened.
He testified that the emergency
brake on his truck was absolutely
useless, the foot brake wouldn't. stop
the car within so feet when the acct
dent occurred and his clutch worked
sometimes and sometimes it didn't.
There was horn on the auto, but,it
was never in condition to give
sound; before the driver crushed his
victim to death, he yelled at the man
to get out Of the way.
This Fair auto truck, the driver
said, had broken down an hour be-
fore, on the way from the garage to
the Fair warehouse, and had to be
towed in. Then a man was killed be-

again and forty feet down the street,
before it could be stopped.
They carried BolikO's torn form
into the Consumers Co. Office and
called an ambulance. He lived few

was caused by a crushed liver, kid

At the inquest yesterday afternoon,
directed by Deputy Coroner Adolph

told his story, When he finished, the
coroner's jury returned verdict that

solved of blame.
The verdict laid the blame in this
manner: 1.-The accident was due to
the defective equipment of the Fair
auto truck, as testimony shows that
practically all the operating devices
of the truck were defective"
Cloud told the following story, in
brief:
81 was married two weeks ago. A
few days later 1 lost my job and went
down to the Fair in response to news
DaDer ads. At the garage thew hired
me Tuesday and told me they would
pay me SIS a week.

fore and knew how to handle one.
But 1 had never driven a truck before
in my life.

Rome, Feb. 5.-The "Stampa" gives out the following interesting account of the life of the pope:
 "The holy father makes use of ev- cry minute of the day. He rises promptly at 6 o'clock in the morning and at once reads the mass. He then takes a very simple breakfast, con sisting of an egg and cup of milk. By o'clock he is at work and then starts reading the newspapers. Pope Benedict XIV. is an omniverous reader of the newspapers and goes through every line of the war news. Though his secretary reads them and marks items of particular interest, the pope nevertheless prefers to go over the newspapers himself.
 "At 9 o'clock inc pOpe's mail IS de- livered. The secretary and his as- sistants go through it and it is laid before the pope, who goes carefully over every letter. At Il o'clock the nope receives callers in private. after which follows the public reception. TO those callers who seek an audi ence merely out of curiosity the pope grants but few moments, but when persons of importance call he listens patiently and graciOusly."
