Three ARE INJURED
IN AUTO MISKAPS
BUT NOT SERIOUSLY

Three persons were injured in auto
mobile accidents here on Sunday but
luckily none seriously While Carl
Meier was driving south with his wife
in a Ford car on Eighth street Sun
day morning, the machine collided
with an electric light pole, SCATTERING
the windshield and throwing Mrs. Mel
ger to the pavement. She was cut by
flying glass, as was also Mr.. Meier,
of Lyman Rhodes nearby and doc
tor summoned.
At the time of the accident, Otto
Jaedecke was driving a car east on
Wisconsin street and as he approached
Eighth street, Mr. Meier attempted
have the intersection, but in doing so
his foot slipped from the brake onto
the acceleratOr, which plunged the
car ahead and into the pole The accel-
orator had been recently put on the
car.
When the Meier Car struck the
pole it broke the electric lamp rope
and the heavy lamp fell with a
crash onto the Jaedecke car, but it
struck a glancing blow only. Had the
lamp hit Mr.. Jaedecke he would have
been killed instantly AS it was, it
was about as narrow an escape as he
wishes for There was but little dam
age to his car, but the Ford suffered
considerably from the impact with
the pole.
While a party of young people were
driving an auto in North Fourth
street Sunday afternoon, the car was
turned into the curb to avoid a coils
sion with car which was turning in
to the w. S. Warner driveway. The
tenders and radiator were damaged
but no one was seriously injured. The
parties in the damaged car were from
Jefferson.
