YOUTH BADLY HURT
when AUTO STRUCK.
AND 'FLOORED' HIM.

j. T. Wingate, a white youth resid-
ing on West Garden street, was seri-
ously hurt yesterday afternoon when
an automobile ran over him, smashing
Wingate's bicycle and throwing the
young man violently on the pavement.
He sustained bruises all over the body,
serious liberation of face and head,
and a deep cut on one of his legs, from
which the bone was exposed.
1t is claimed that Wingate gave the
proper signal for the auto, which he
knew was following him. He said that
he held out his hand as a signal to
the car which was coming behind him,
and this statement is borne out by an
other sltoist who was watching the
bicyclist to see that he did not hurt
him.
w L. Zachary, the wel1-known at
torney. who was enjoying drive on
Barrancas avenue with a friend, hap
pened to come along about the time
the accident occurred. and he hurried
ly picked up the sufferer and brought
him to the city. Treatment was given
at D'Alemberte's drugstore.
To patrolmen Kelyy, the sufferer
stated that he was riding along Bar
ranacas avenue and knew that there
was a car just behind him. He said
that he started to turn off the avenue.
and konwing that the auto was fol-
lowing, held out his hand. clearly in
dicatfng that he wac about to make
a turn in that direction. He said that
he was not riding fast. but that the
out which struck and injured him was
going at a great speed. He furnished
the officer the number Of the car, and
Mr.. Zachary said that It was the num-
Der OF the same car which he met in
the same vicinity. but there had been
no arrests up to a late hour.

resign by the governor upon the occa-
first that he would. Later on, how
ever, Constable Jones stated that he
had wired the governor resembling his
former declaration, and that he re-
fused to tender his resignation. No
action has been taken on that stand
thus far, it is declared. but the gov
ernor is down in Okeechobee county,
or was at last reports, and thus moth
ing has transpired at the capital Upon
his return, however. he is expected to
take up Pensacola business, and
among other matters TO cake action
on the rescinded action of Constable
Jones, and he is expected to remove
him. That will leave a vacancy in an

TO NIAGARA FALLS

Niagara Falls, July 27.-The gorge
below Niagara Falls seems to possess
peculiar fascination for aviators fin
ishing their course at the American and
Canadian training fields within radius
of 30 miles of the cataract.
Many times recently tourists have
been treated to unusual unusual
and unannounced performances. Lin
coin Beachy's dip to Death" under the
upper steel arch bridge, nearest the
Falls, has been repeated many times.
The most sensational performances
have been by two unidentified aviators
supposed to be from the training field
at Beamsville, Ont. They sent their
two planes through the gorge and I'M
der the lower steel arch and Cantilever
bridges which are close together ana IN
the narowest part of the chasm.
The airmen came from the north. en-
tering the gorge near the Whirlpool
and emerging at point about 800 feet
south of the Santilever bridge. They
then circled over the Falls and sailed
away toward Beamsville.

WAR BOOSTS NUMBER
OF IRISH INDUSTRIES

Dublin, July 2S.-The war has given a
stimulus to some Irish industries which
one flourished and had fallen into de-

made in France, and drain pipes and
sanitary ware equal to the best OBJ
tainable from England. Experts de-
clare that there is abundance of ex-

Electric Grill at
San Carlos Opens

The new electric grill which will be
open for inspection to the public to-
day and for business on Monday, has
been enlisted in the war savings cam
paign. Every purchaser will receive
a cash register check. for every ten
dollars worth of which he will re-
ceive two thrift stamps.
The grill will no doubt prove popular
and the patronage will be much in
creased in this way, which will be
great assistance in the war savings
drive.
