INSULT ADDED ID
 INJURY, IS COMPLAINT

E. L. Skelton yesterday brought a suit in Superior Court against A. R. Jenkins asking for $l,5o0 for damages, alleged to have been done to car be- longing to the plaintiff through the negligence of the defendant. The plaintiff states that when this side of Needles he saw the defendant ap- preaching, driving a steam car at a high rate of speed. The plaintiff drew cut to one side of the road to let the defendant pass, but in passing he col lidec with the car of the plaintiff.
 The plaintiff would have felt better about it. or. at any rate. he would have felt less aggrieved if the defendant had manifested more of the spirit of a Good Samaritan, he says. The plain tiff alleges that the encounter took place fifteen miles from Needles or any other place. The defendant, he states, refused to tow him to Needles, and then refused to make the concession of dividing the contents of his canteen with him, but continued his journey. leaving the plaintiff high and dry on the desert. and 1t was pretty dry.
