STEPS ON WRONG PEDAL;
KNOCKS CAR FROM TRACK

' when a big Marmon chummy
roadster came up the hill from the
north on Elgin last evening at about
O'Clock. the driver, a woman, ap-
parently became confused and
stepped on the accelerator instead Of
the brake As consequence an
east bound Bellview car at Third
and Elgin was knocked off the track
and into a post at the corner. 1t
bounced back from the post and is
now in the street between the car
track and the curb.
The car, which was taken to
garage, bears a Kansas tag. The oc-
Cupants, a man and woman, were
neither injured to any great extent.
The man was thrown over tho for
ward door of the car and lay stunned
a few moments, while the woman
was not injured beyond a shaking up.
Damage to the Marmon amounts
to a badly dented radiator and
smashed headlights. The occupants
Of the automobile got in another car
and continued their way, refusing to
give either names or addresses

ion Of officials here, for important de-

While no change in policy either
political or military, has been made by
the United States, it is realized here
that the holding of the Ukraine by
forces friendly to the associated gov
ernments and decisively hostile to the
Bolshevik opens IA path directly into
the heart of Russia either for the dis
patch of troops or Of supplies for the
relief of the demoralized civilian popu-
lation.

YANKEE SOLDIERS ENTER
LUXEMBURG WEDNESDAY

American Army of Occupation, Nov.
90 t6 p. m.)-Swinging northward
from Metz the American first division
crossed into Luxembourg just before
noon today, entering Esch, a mining
town of 10000 inhabitants. The civ
ilians expected the Americans Thurs
day, but when the vanguard appeared,
the news spread rapidly. The whis-
ties at the mines were blown, bells
were rung, children were excused from
schools, stores were closed and the
afternoon was proclaimed holiday.
In the store windows and public
buildings along to& principal streets
there were pictr:es - resident Will
son, drawn by an 80 II Esch who
had worked night and day 20 com
plcte by hand as many drawings as
possible. Pictures of President Poin-
care, Marshal Foch and King Albert
also were prominently displayed.
To the first division fell the honor
of crossing the Lorraine line, the ad-
vance guard entering Aumetz soon
after nine o'clock. For three days the
civilians of Aumetz had been looking
for the Americans, expecting them
every minute.

.F|RE.BUC CAPTURED
PLEADS GU|LN...C|T.
|zENS SLEEP NOW

Tucumcari has been visited by sev.
eral mysterious fires and it was up
to the officials to see that the mystery
he cleared before the whole town was
destroyed, so Mayor James set about
to ferret the matter out. He was Civ
en- clew to work up and he worked
it, but il seemed impossible to get the
real goods on the suspicious character,
so Sheriff Street took il upon himself
TO close the matter up when Dwigh;
Eslinger, (the one suspicioned) came
to the court house after the laundry
as he had only two days before been
employed as driver of the laundry
wagon. Mr.. Street proceeded in his
' own way to make the boy "fess up"
but the boy wouldn't come through.
He was allowed to return to the shop
but Mr.. Street had not given up the
case.
About an hour later he proceeded to
the laundry and arrested Eslinger and
took him to Jail. Then the young fell
low came through confessing to the
setting fire of the two bear grass piles
and the large grain storage barns &C.
cupied by Collins and Shipley. He
said he did not set the school house or
other fires. but there is much evidence
to the contrary and it is thought that
he will prove the guilty party and will
perhaps own up to that dastardly deed
Eslinger returned from the border
recently where he had been with the
U. s. Army. He told different stories
about why he was let out of the army.
He had the thumb and finger off when
he joined, but this was given as the
reason for his discharge. He was EN-
ployed here for several weeks by
the Edwards Grocery Co. driving the
delivery wagon but was discharged.
After that he said he was working on
the railroad as fireman and brakeman
but was never caught working. This
was one of the reasons he was first
suspicioned. He joined the fire de-
partment and made n dollar an hour
every time the boys were called out
to fight fire. This he gives as the
main reason why he set these houses
land bear grass on fire. He needed the
money. He made Sl5 the day the four
points school was set on fire.
His trial will possibly be held this
week and he will go to Santa Fe to
work for the state on the road work
or such other work as the warden sees
fit to put him at He has thrown his
life away to keep from work and will
no doubt wish he had chosen "A differ
ent method of making money. His
deeds have cost the insurance com
panies many thousand OF dollars and
the courts will see that justice is meted
out to him for his wrong deeds.
