Auto Accident Near Town.

Mr.. and Mrs. B. C. Reuter-, of
32nd and st. Paul streets, Balti-
more, were painfully but fortunately
not seriously injured about nine
o'clock Sunday evening at Sterrett
& Wards warehouse, just east of the
railroad, in this town. Mr.. Reuter-
was approaching town in his new
Chalmers runabout at a fair rate of
ipeed, when machine turned into
the road from the lumber yard, on
his right, directly in front of him.
In order to avoid a collision Mr..
Reuter- swung his machine to the
left up the bank near the end of
railroad siding. The right front
wheel of his machine was smashed,
causing the auto to crash into tele-
phone pole, shattering the wind
shield and showering the occupants
with flying glass. Both Mr.. and
Mrs. Reuter- were painfully cut about
the face and hands by broken glass
and badly bruised by being thrown
against the front of their machine.
The autoists who was the cause of
the accident "beat it" and it is not
known who it was. A machine fol-
lowing directly behind Mr.. and Mrs,
Reuter- stopped and took them to the
Office of DR.. J. 3. Slicer. where their
injuries were attended to and they
were later in the night taken to their
home by friends who drove from
Baltimore after being telephoned to.
The damaged machine was taken to
Rising Sun Garage for a new wheel
and other needed repairs.

To Investigate The Susquehanna
Bridge Co. Again.

The Susquehanna Bridge Com
pany, which owns and operates the
bridge over the Susquehanna river
between Perryville and Havre de
Grace, which has been the subject
of much investigation, is again to
take the foot lights. The Public
Service Commission has ordered the
auditors to make an investigation
looking to the amount of money
taken in by the company.
The government has also felt the
pinch of high cost of travel over the
bridge and movement has been
started with view of having a re-
duction of tolls over the structure.
1t is stated the government has been
paying more than $4,000 month for
the passage of it's army trucks in
crossing the river at Perryville.

Tale OF A Tooth.

The following tale of a tooth" "
the sequel of which was the loss of
good job, is told by the Baltimore
News of Friday:
Andrew Jones, guard at the Gov
ernment chemical plant at Perry
willie, has tooth that aches.
United States officials were some
what mystified about the situation
when Jones told his story to Com
missioner Supplee, but they will
make an investigation through the
military intelligence department.
"a few days ago Jones, one of his
duties being to see that nobody car
lies whisky on the reservation, was
on guard when his tooth began to
ache. An intelligence man found
him a few minutes later and when
he gave the guard gentle tap on
the hip he felt something that was
not like the regulation "forty-fver. z"
Sure enough it wasn't, but it was
a bottle half-flled with whisky. 1t
is said that Jones admitted the bot
tie was his.
II took it for toothache," he said.
''Then he was turned over to Ser
geant Miracle to be brought to Bal
timore for further explanation"

Military Intelligence Men Swoop
Down On Federal Reservation
AT Perryville and Bag
Booze Carriers.

Searching every man who entered
the grounds of the Government nj
trate plant at Perryville, early Sun
day, officers of the military Intelli-
gence Bureau found 20 men carry
ing liquor.
The 20 were arrested and lodged
in cells at the Northeastern and
Northern Police Stations, Baltimore,
awaiting hearings before United
States Commissioner Supplee. They
are charged with taking liquor into
Government reservation.
While the Military Intelligence
officers have been active in rounding
up the slackers working on Govern
ment reservations and have made
several raids on draft slackers, the
raid at Perryville was the first
whisky raid" at any of the Govern
ment plants in Maryland.
The military intelligence officers,
operating under the direction of the
chief of the Baltimore bureau, went
to the nitrate plant Saturday night
and were stationed at all entrances
at midnight to stop and search all
the men entering the place. A few
OF the men came from Baltimore,
but most of them alighted from
trains from Wilmington and Phila-
delphia.
A few of the men had half-pint
bottles tucked in their hip pockets,
but the greater number had pints
and quarts, while two or three car
ried as much as three pints to "see
themselves over Sunday"

ARMY OFFICER SHOT.
Major John r.. King, Stationed At
Aberdeen Proving Ground Shot
BY G. Hal johnson.

Major John R. King, the army
officer stationed at the Government
proving grounds at Aberdeen, who
was shot Wednesday night. 18th
inst, by Charles H. Johnson, in
whose home he rented quarters,
died in the post hospital the next
day. Major King asserted that the
shooting was without provocation,
but counsel for Johnson declares he
shot in self defense. The bullet
went into the abdomen, on one side,
and was taken out of the other side
by the surgeons. Johnson was re-
leased on $4,000 bail, but rearrest-
ed.
An Investigation being conducted
by States Attorney McComas has
brought out the fact that there has
been trouble between the two men
for about a month Major King had
been boarding at the Johnson home
since his arrival in Aberdeen last
December and at first the men were
good friends, but Johnson recently
ordered the major to move. The
major is said to have replied that he
had rented the room for a month
and would not move until that time
was up. Johnson is said to have re-
marked that Major King had been
making himself disagreeable about
Johnson's house, and that he John
SOM had ordered the Major to leave.
Hot words ensued when King re-
fuced to go, leading to fight be,
tween the men during which the
Army officer was fatally shot.
Johnson is well known in Aber-
deem, having been cashier of the
First National Bank for years. Prior
to going to Aberdeen, he resided in
Elkton. For two years he was
deputy Sheriff of Cecil County under
his father, the late Samuel Johnson,
and later was employed as teller for
some years in the Second National
Bank of Elkton.

CONOWINGO BRIDGE DAMAGED.
Loaded Twelve-Ton Truck Too
Heavy For Wooden Structure.

Loaded Twelve-Ton Truck Too
Heavy For Wooden Structure.
Two spans of the Conowingo
bridge over the Susquehanna River
were out of repair several days last
week, preventing traffic from cross
ing at that point: 1t was put out
of commission Tuesday evening
when big truck bound from Beth
lehem, Pa, to Sparrows Point, Md,
loaded with an immense shafting
weighing about twelve tons, was
crossing.
The driver of the truck heard the
bridge giving way and put on more
power, getting his loaded machine
across safely. 1t took forethought
on his part for the bridge rapidly
sunk under the great weight.
1t was the wooden part of the
bridge, on the east side, that broke.
The main part of the bridge is iron.

proving grounds Monday night raid
ed the Hartford restaurant in Aber-
deem, and arrested the proprietor
Ewalt De Long, his wife and two

west of town, one of the drivers
stopped his machine and stepping
down from it was struck and knock

Postal Authorities Want Roads
COmDleted


The. Post Office Department has
been Investigating the progress
made on the various sections of un-
completed improved road in our
neighborhood, and on Route No. 131
in Pennsylvania, and has been given
assurances that the Rising Sun-Syl-
mar section, connection at the State
line with Route 131 will be COM
pleted this summer, and the western
end of the Rising Sun-Porter's
Bridge road finished also. 1t is not
probable that the eastern end of the
road, leading into town, will be COM
pleted.
The contractors report. the section
of Route 131 from Oxford to Lin
coin, Pa, will be completed as well.
1t will be cheering news to autoists
to know that the Porter's Bridge
hill, which is dangerous one In bad
weather, will soon be eliminated,
the new road running around the
hillside, near the creek. Pigeon Hill,
just west of town, will be the only
difficult piece of road to negotiate
in bad weather between here and
Baltimore, as it is not likely the de-
tour at this point will be completed,
as the grading is hardly more than
begun and the amount of excavation
is large.

Turbine Blows To Pieces

A serious accident occurred at the
power house of the Havre de Grace
Electric Company on Saturday night,
when one of the large turbines burst
and pieces of castings few in all
directions. One piece was thrown
through the 3-inch concrete roof
tearing a hole about IL inches long,
and other pieces broke out several
windows. No one was hurt, al
though the engineer was in the room
at the time.
The cause of the wreck is un-
known as the turbine was nearly
new and was carrying only a light
load at the time of the break. The
damage is said to be about $4,000.
