Was Hit by Car.

wheel of an automobile weighing
about 5000 pounds was resting on his
head after an accident this noon, Err
nest Gardner, son of Rev. E. j. Gard
ner of the Walnut Grove NJ. E.

ribs and possible internal injuries.
The accident happened when d car
driven by Mrs. w. H. Wright, 1913

ridden by the 14-year-old Gardner boy
and his companion, Franklin Reid.
The two boys had just started on
their way to school, Reid pedalling
the bicycle and Gardner mounted on
the handlebars, when the auto driven
by Mrs. Wright hit them. Eyewit-
nesses stated that the boys swerved to
the left when they heard the auto
coming but that the collision could
not be avoided.

ernoon decided to open bids for the
proposed county home and hospital.

This delay in setting a date for the
contract will make it possible for the

ILLINOIS Rates
Low, TESTIMONY
IN CASE SHOWS
Difference One-fourth Be-
tween Indiana Freight and
That of Neighbor Admitted.

CHICAGO, July 24-Admissions that
Illinois freight rates were IS to 200
per cent lower than Indiana rates
were elected from H. M. Slater. trans
portation rate expert Of the Illinois
Public Utilities Commission, at the
rates hearing Wednesday before In
terstate Commerce Commissioner H.
B. Meyer.
1t has been planned to complete In
dianas case during the day, but Com
missioner Meyer had been summoned
to Washington and before depart
ing he desired to hear the method Of
procedure which would be adopted by
the defendants.
Commissioner Meyer announced
that Examiner William A. Disque Of
the commission would conduct the
hearing until his return Monday. Sew
eral Indiana jobbers, merchants, and
representatives of the trade organtza-
lions from the Hoosier state had tes-
titled during the morning session.
One of the features Of the days
hearing was an informal rejection by
the representatives of the Indiana
meat packers of the proposal offered
by Illinois meat packers for an agree
ment upon a Is per cent increase in
rates in Illinois for those commodi-
ties.
Luckett Shows Unfarness.
Exhibits filed by G.. B. Luckett, pres.
ident of the Indiana Brick Manufac-
turers' Association, demonstrate the
wide varieties of rates on brick ship
ments from Charlottesville. Ind, to
Danville, ILL.,. competing brick manu-
featuring centers. The rate to the
Indiana shipper is $1.10 per ton, while
to the person shipping the same com
modify from Danville to Crawfords-
vile on the same railroad the rate is
only 81.
He cited anaother instance where
the rate from Indianapolis to Danville
through Charlottesville was $1.58
while from Danville to Indianapolis
through Charlottesville the charge
was only $118. Mr.. Luckett testified
that the difference on an average on
Illinois shipments was about 40 cents
a ton and to Wisconsin through Hi
nois 81 cents a ton. This, he believes
was conclusive proof of the unfair
Illinois rates and classifications.
Have 81 Cent Edge.
In coping with Illinois brick manu-
facturers in the Chicago market at
about the same hauling distance the
Illinois shippers had a 81 cent edge
on the Hoosier brick manufacturers,
Mr. Luckett testified. On shipments
to points in Indiana and the East both
the Illinois and Indiana shippers were
on an equality, but the Illinois manu-
facturers shipped their products from
forty to forty-five miles farther under
the same charge, he said.
Competition with men in Illinois
for their state trade could only be
done by Indiana shippers If they alb,
sorbed the rate difference in their
profit, losing profit advantages by so
doing, he testified. Mr.. Luckett filed
eight exhibits each citing from ten to
twenty cases of rate discrimination.

But only three short years ago,
$1.20 a bushel was paid for the first

1916. and local papers carried first
page stories on the event. Flour
made from that wheat was priced at

breaking price. Today it Is quoted
at $12 a barrel of 1876 pounds, by To-
cal millers.

PUPILS TAKING ACTIVE INTER.
EST IN GARDENS,

Great interest is being taken by
the pupils of the Paris schools in the
school garden work, which will soon
be under way, as the weather gives
evidence of remaining settled enough
for the purpose. A supply of seed
sufficient to keep $500 children
busy in garden work has been re-
ceived from the Agricultural Bu-
reau at Washington. 1t is the pur-
pose of the schools to have every
child interested this year in garden
work as a recreation, healthful
work and as means of producing
food stuff
Several teachers from the Paris
City School have been in Lexington
recently visiting the schools there
and acquainting themselves with
the school garden work as carried on
by the Lexington pupils. Other
teachers will visit other schools this
week and everything will be done to
have the best and most modern
school garden supervision for the
Paris City Schools. Prof. Matthews,
Federal Director of School Gardens
for Kentucky, will spend several
days here this week. If you have an
uncultivated garden. call the City
School, and let the children have the
use of the ground.
