TWO NARROW ESCAPES.

Two men narrowly escaped being
run down by automobiles last week,
on the Main Street. The parties
alighting from the street car walk
ed almost in front of an auto which
was whizzing by the standing street
car. In all cities and well regulated
towns an ordinance forbids automo-
bilcs to pass by n standing car. The
auto must stop still and wait until
the car starts and the track is clear,
so as TO avoid accidents.
The Clinch Valley News has called
attention to this matter more than
once. The Town Council should take
some notice of the danger and the
possibility of injury referred to. The
streets Of this town are narrow and
the wonder is that accidents have not
already occurred. Whether the coun-
ell acts or not, let all auto drivers
slack up or stop entirely when pass
ing a standing street car.

but perhaps less respectable and not

with other good men, fought General
Booze and his cohorts long and va

friend Frazier, when he was at the
