Mr.. and Mrs. George McMaster
were killed in an auto accident last
Sunday, said today that there is a
chance for a complete recovery of
Mr.. Condo.
They say that his condition is
improving and that he is resting
comfortably. No infection has set
in his left leg and it is believed
that amputation will not be neces-
sary. The fracture may cause him
to limp a little after it has healed.
The cash in his right knee is heal
ing and also the bruises under his
chin and on his left arm. That his
injuries were not more serious is
considered almost miraculous, as
he was thrown a distance of more
than 100 feet when the locomotive
struck the automobile in which he
was riding.

in the window of the Math bakery
at 1712 Second avenue. 1t bears
the note that it's builder is Billie
Taylor of BOAT Tenth avenue.
In many ways this car is one Of
the most interesting little pieces of
work turned out in this city at any
time. 1t took Mr.. Taylor just three
years to build it, starting in June,
1916. and finishing near July 1 this
summer He put a great deal Of
his spare time on it, and turned out
a fine bit of workmanship.
The car is absolutely complete,
from solid iron wheels geared to
motors, to advertisements in the

What would you do if your twin
sister ran away with your husband
on your bridal night? Well, that's
just what happened to vi Playfair,
but it was mostly her own fault.
The night before Wis wedding to

sister, Tiny, that she is going out
for one more little lark with Lent
portunity to meet Lent, Tiny goes
porunity to meet Lent, Tiny goes
to him and Lent believes that he is
kissing his own vi.
The next day, Immediately after
the wedding ceremony, Lent tells
vi that she belongs to him, as he is
the only one who really loves her,
and that Joe is bullying her and
has stolen her from him. When Joe
comes into his wife's room few
minutes later, she is nothing like a
sweet little bride ought to be. She

surprise for her, or she will not go
with him. He leaves the room,
hurt and disguised. Lent comes
out of a closet in which he has
been hiding and persuades vi to
go away with him.
Tiny enters the room just in
time to see vi and Lent in a fond
embrace and thinks that as long as
vi has stolen Lent, the man she
loves, why should she not run away
with JoeI So she gets into a dupli-

and goes down to meet Joe, who is
pleased to see that his bride has
come back to her senses. Just as
vi is about to leave the house She
hears shouts of Good luck to the

ing on a patent for new improved

body worked quicker and beat him

got mad and took it out on my
model by building it into this car"
The work was completed with
the help of Moline foundry,
where iron was cast into shape
from Taylor's patterns for the
wheels and parts of the frame. The
exactness of line was gained by
measuring tri-city cars in their
barns. He figures that he has spent
about two and a half hours daily
for the last three years upon the
little car. He attempted to find a
downtown place large enough to
display the car on it's track and in
operation from batteries, but was
unable to do so.

ct will be a pretty tough job for
this country to negotiate a new
treaty with Germany but that is

summer home here, in discussing
Republican efforts to amend the
document.
Instead of a treaty imposed by
military forces" said the senator,
I'VE shall make such areaty as
Germany is willing to sign and we
shall lose the advantages of the i'm
posed treaty.
In discussing the situation with
the president yesterday, Senator
Hitchcock said, this point was
brought up and the president
laughingly remarked that he might
send Senators Lodge and Knox,
chief opponents of ratification, to
Germany to negotiate a new
treaty.
He said this" the senator said.
