OSCAR REINHART IS VICTIM OF COLLISION
 WITH STREET CAR
Proprietor of Reinhart Ice Cream Company and Negro Driver of
 Truck Strike Tidewater Car

Oscar Reinhart of BIOS North Fifth ave- nue, lies at the St. Vincent hospital most likely fatally injured, and John Smith, colored, of Seventh avenue, seriously in- jured, is at the same hospital as the re : suit of collision between the Ford truck the two men were riding in and a ri de- water street car yesterday afternoon. The collision occurred at Sixth avenue and John street about $40 o'clock. The truck belonged to the Reinhart Ice Cream company of which MT. Reinhart is proprietor.
 The Ford truck was going south on John street, when it collided with a west bound Tidewater car. MT. Reinhart was driving the truck and Motorman H. M Little and Conductor c. T. Hudson were in charge of the street car.
 Mr. ReiHhart sustained a number of broken bones and his body and limbs were badly bruised and torn. A piece of steel, similar to a tire tube, was driven several inches into his jaw. He was picked up unconscious and taken to the hospital in Johns ambulance, wi,tie Smith, who was in the truck with him, was taken to the hospital in Davenport & Harris ambulance.
 None of the eyewitnesses, of whom there were several, could give a clear account of the accident, or who was to blame for it, if blame attaches to any one,

 "For years I have been a great suf- ferer from stomach trouble: had indi- gestion and dyspepsia so bad that I could hardly keep the lightest kind of food in my stomach; it would ferment and cause gas to form there, and was badly bloated; was so nervous I could not sleep at night and got very weak; l felt melancholy and blue and had no ambition or energy to do my work. would feel just as tired when I got up in the morning as when I went to bed at night Nothing helped me until I started to take your Plant Juice Now I am feeling in the best of health; have no more pains, sleep fine and feel that can honestly recommend Plant Juice to others for what it has done for me"
 Such words as these and those of many others which have been printed. have wide influence for they come from men of standing and integrity, who have given Plant Juice a fair trial and have been greatly benefited thereby.

Last Installment on
 Third Loan Now Due

Washington, August 15.---The last in- stallment payment on the Third Liberty Loan, due today, was expected to bring in the $3s0, 1000. 900 unpaid balance of the S1,176,o00,0G0 total of the loan.
 All federal reserve districts except Richmond, Minneapolis and Dallas over subscribed their quotas for the latest certificate issue.
 The fact that the allies have called on the United States so far this month for only ST1 000,000 loans was an ele- ment in prompting treasury officials to- day to believe that s5.OOo, 000,00 would be sufficient for the Fourth Liberty Loan.
