Almost Tragedy-Last Saturday
afternoon as Hon. M. J. Sweeley, Mrs.
Sweeley, with Mrs. Mary Norton and
Mr. Everett Sweeley's two little girls,
we're returning from Boise in an auto,
the pin came out and rendered the
brake useless just at the top of the
long and steep grade at Snake river,
just this side of Bliss This occasion
ed mishap so serious that it seems
almost a miracle that the results were
no worse than the event proved. AS
a matter of course the car rapidly
gathered speed and momentum, and
at one of the abrupt turns, it skidded
and went over the bank, falling about
thirty feet from the roadway. During
the fall it turned completely over once
and finally came to rest on the wheels
but the top, though badly broken, sc
far protected the occupants that no
one was injured at all except Mrs
Sweeley, and she escaped with minor
strains and bruises from which she
had substantially recovered this morn
