DR.. A. l.. Haight's Car Struck aLittIe
Girl Last Tuesday.

One OF the luckiest accidents that
has happened in Crystal Falls In
long time happened last Tuesday on
the ID. M. Ross corner when the auto
mobile OF Or. A. /. Haight struck
little daughter OF Mr.. Rosa OF the
Shafer location. The girl was knock
ed down and one front wheel passed
over her body. She was taken Inn
mediateIy to the general hospital and
a careful examination made OF her
wounds. They were pronounced to
be not serious
DIR. Haight was driving south on
Third street He was driving slowly.
As he neared the crossing he saw
Mrs. Mitchell and the little girl ap--
proach and he blew his horn. Mrs.
Mitchell stopped, but the little girl
stepped out In front Of the car, all
the time her attention being fixed in
the opposite direction to that from
which the car was coming.
The child's action was so sudden
that DR.. Haight couldn't avert hitting
her. He grabbed his emergency and
stopped the car in few feet, but in
that time the forward wheel had pass
ed over the hips Of the child. He
jumped out OF the car and took the
child into his arms. BY that time
assistance had arrived. DR.. Haight
hurried the girl to the hospital where
she was given every madical attention
possible. We learn that the child is
not seriously injured.

and paid visit to The Diamond Drill
'offlce. Mr. Shields is brother OF
Bob Shields of Houghton, and an
upper peninsula boy.
He says that the company will
gladly build in the city OF Crystal Falls
IL the proper place can be secured
BY proper place. he means one that
will accommodate the company in its
work in this district as well as allow
them to operate filling station,
Many restrictions are being put up
ON the company in the matter o
handling It's products, all of them
with view to greater public safety
and many OF them absolutely neces-
sary to that end.
One recent restriction placed upon
them Is the stipulation that all tracks
upon which gasoline is unloaded
must be so feet from any other track.
The purpose Of this restriction is I,
prevent the ignition of escaping gas
by passing engines while gasoline Is
being unloaded from tank car into
the storage tanks Of the company.
Just what the company will do In
the case OF Crystal Falls remains a
mystery. They would like 10 move
into the city, but site where they
can handle their products convenient
ly hasn't been found yet

Samples Of the Fellows Whose Ii
cense should BE Cancelled.

Last Tuesday an ore train was
crossing the county road at the odg-
ers crossing An auto was coming
from the city driven by a man, anoth.
er man was In the front seat and three
women In the rear seat The machine
was travelling at a pretty high rate OF
speed. John Sullivan was watching
the car coming and. something told
him that the fellow wouldn't stop. so
he clapped on the air when the auto
was about ten rods from the train
Although twenty ore cars were over
the crossing and there were fifteen
more 10 cross, the fellow didn't make
any change in his speed. Even when
the train stopped he kept plugging
ahead and banged into the center of
an ore car bending the truss rod. The
impact was with such force that the
car rebounded ten feet. Sullivan ask
ed the man why he didn't stop when
he saw train on the crossing. He
replied, why didn't you blow your
whistler"
Last Friday a car Was waiting on
each side OF a passing train at the
same crossing. The engine was push
ing the cars and was moving slowly.
The drivers Of both cars were SO Inn
patient TO get across that they didn't
wait for the crossing to be cleared
before starting up. Both drivers had
the same idea--that OF driving around
the engine before il was entirely over
the crossing. The result was that
they came together head-on.
Collisions at that crossing are fire.

OF utter recklessness OF drivers.

The bill that kindled the fame be-
tween the attorneys was a claim OF
Mr.. Moriarty for $500 for extra work
done in connection with the bond Ia

In explanation Ii may be said thai

year ago the stipulation was made
that all extras In the work OF the
prosecuting attorney were included
in the salary. This agreement Mr..
Moriarty rigidly adhered to. lie paid

The bond issue was not thought of
at the time that the salary was set.

the prosecutors regular work and
when he was asked to do the work

count OF his expenses and extra work

The matter was referred to the
prosecuting attorney and Mr.. oHara

The meeting was an uneyentful one
and would have passed into history
without any mention OF its having
held excepting the brief report of the
proceedings by the clerk had the at
torneys not appeared upon the scene
and staged the very entertaining side
show that was put on.
II was expected that the bills result
ing from the epidemic of Flu last win
ter would be on hand to be disposed
of. but for some reason they were not
presented. The big item In these bills
liz that from Iron River village. In all
amounting to something over $4,000
As the money to defray the expenses
of the local hospital set up in Iron
River was borrowed from the War
Chest. the people Of that district are
naturally anxious that the claim be
disposed OF and the money put back
in the chest.
The claims were referred back for
a careful audit three months ago and
were to have been brought up last
Saturday, but IL seems that the COM
mittee is not entirely through with
them yet.

extraordinary scene You must read it
to believe II.
That's only one Of the many famous
things that happened in Alsaee when the
latter was not bucking the Teuton ten
yard line. Along about 1874 AIieri, the
GAnnunzio of his time, filings himself on
the scene The town il Wettolsheim, In
the castle of Martinsbourg; and here M.
HaIIays relates to US in many, pages some
thing that is still town talk there-fhe
romance of the poet and his adorata
donna, Aloisia de Stolberg, Countess of
Albany. Sainte-Beuve has told US great
deal about this unhappy and brilliant We
man whose beauty has remained a legend
in Wettolsheim. She inspired many of
Alferi's plays. The portrait of the Coun-
tess in this volume shows to us a woman
that Leonardo da Vinci should have
painted to place beside his Mona Lisa
The Chsteaux of the Cardinals de
Rohan are described with the rather IN
evangelical lives and habits of these hb-
eral Princes of the Church. One Of them
was called by Madame de Seyigne shat
beautiful able, so beautiful and too
beautiful" Saint-Simen said 'he had
the face of Cupid" This was Armand
CASTOR de Rohan-Soubise 1t was he who
employed Robert lie Lorrain to execute
over the door of his stables in high relief
The Horses of the Sun.
No side of Alsatian life is neglected in
this book. A chapter is given to NJ.
Maurice Barres and his book on Alsaee,
In the Service of Germany. There Is also
a chapter on eighteenth century ant in
Alsaee; one on public festivals; and the
concluding chapter is UnchGngiHg Alscce,
in which the French heart of the country
is dug from under the Germanie face and
helmet.

ID FAD real romance IN the glllse OIL
IN history, The Spell Of AlsGce, by
Andre Hallays, translated from the
French by Frank Roy Fraprie- 1t is one
of the @SpelI Series issued by the Page
Company, of Boston
There are beautiful Illustrations in color
of feudal castles, Rhine ruins, queer
streets in old towns, and portraits of some
famous men and women who have lived
in Alsaee NJ. Hallays is a painter and
a humanist, man who spots the anec-
dote wherever he goes, who sees stories
in stones and epics In the valleys OF the
Vosges. There are dozens Of towns de-
scribed, and each one stands out starkly
or glowingly under the pen of the author.
The beauty of NJ. Hallays's book is that
the history of Alsaee is put into the in
PRODUCTION. He has a poor opinion OF
mere data and chronology. Alsaee has
been the old pigskin IN the greatest infer
national football game ever staged Since
Julius Caesar started it, some years before

But she is securely IN the mitt of France

down that Papa made at the Marne.
The two most fascinating parts of this
book concern the famous NJ de Voltaire

Frenchmans that he could lay his hands

him. So he settled down in the Rue de

name of Coll The house still stands;
there is no memorial tablet on its walls,
but instead an advertisement for tooth
paste.
He had mortgage on the vineyards of
Riquewihr, SO his eats were safe for a
time. NJ. HalIays tells. us that his three
enemies, the govt, literary pirates and the
Jesuits, pursued him even into Alsaee;
the latter, in fact, pestered him so much
that the old rascal sent for a Capuehin
monk and received the sacrament in one
of Colmar's churches. Collini, one of his
