SEVERAL HUR 7
IN WEEK END
AUTO M|SHAPS
Auto Turns Over Here and
Another Car is Damaged
at keyport

Heavy automobile traffic over
the week end was responsible for
several automobile accidents in
this city and vicinity. No fatali-
ties resulted, although in one
smash-up, which occurred in Key
port, one occupant had an arm and
three ribs broken, while six others
were less seriously injured. Four
of the occupants were taken to the
South Amboy Hospital, where
they were attended.
Accident Here.
- Thomas Butler, of 211 Hawthorne
street, Brooklyn. and the five other
occupants of the car he was driving,
about half past ten last night, had a
narrow escape from injury when the
auto turned over at the corner of AL
pine street and Amboy avenue. But
Ter told Patrolman Morgan that as
he was coming down Amboy avenue
dog ran out in the road just in
front of him. To save the dog he said
he swung abruptly into Alpine street,
where the car went over on its side.
There were two soldiers from Colonia
in the car, but no one was hurt.
An automobile driven by Capt
Darte, of No. Maiden Lane, New
York city, was struck by a motor
truck belonging to the Modern Milk
and Cream Company, at the corner of
Hobart and Smith streets about 8
c'cloc. No one was injured and the
damage to the cars was slight.
The traffic sign at the intersection
of Fayette and Mechanic streets
which was only placed there on Fri
day, was run into yesterday after
noon by DIR. Charles w. Naulty, Jr.,
in his automobile; so damaging the
sign that it had to be removed. An
other car ran into the sign earlier in
the day.

NOMEN OVERCOME
| IN PRESS OF CROWD
Jostling Too Much for Some.
Others Faint From Joy
Over Reunion
COOL WEATHER SAVES MANY

Many amusing and II few pathetic in
cidents kept busy during todays parade
and for hours afterward scores of
women detailed to various emergency
stations and restrooms to serve visi
tors.
Three women who were overcome by
the excitement and much iostling in
the street crowds and tainted were
treated at the service station in the
Academy of Music. Nurses there re
yivcd them. and they left later in the
care of relatives and friends. Their
names were withheld.
Woman Overcome by Joy
Another woman. who occupied n
grandstand seat in Broad street. was so
overjoycd by the sight of her, husband
in the ranks of the troops that she col
lapsed.N She also was treated at the
Theatre, station. -
Hospital ambulanccs were moving
swiftly up and down the line of march,
| Indicating numerous other eases Of ex-
4 &-haustion and collapse in the crowds.
1 Coolpess of the weather. it was said
BY emergency physicians, prevented
many more such cases.
Scores of women bcsicgcd the scrv-
lee stations during the morning for
sleeping accommodations. One young
woman. who was referred to the \.
w. c. A.. replied: Nothing doing
they make you go to bed there at III
o'clock and I'm from New York.
Relatives who sought vainly for sons
/ brothers or husbands among the sol
diers at fhc several armories before the
parade started turned for aiG to the in
4 formation booths and thought it strange
that the missing doughboys could not
be Immediately tagged. One aged man
appealed three times to the booth III
the Second Regiment Armory to locate
his son with the troops there:
The Pretty Bride Disappointed
A pretty little bride who came all
the way from Kansas to meet her sol
dier husband here. was in the worst pre-
dicament of all. Twice at the same time
bride and bridegroom each vainly sought
the other in the crowds that thronged
the lobby of the Bellevue Stratford.
Il Finally. She appealed frantically t'
Y the nearest service station, and was ad
yised to go to Camp Dix this after
noon and meet her husband on his re-
turn there.
Information booths in the railway
stations and ferry terminals were closed
soon after | o'clock. where women sta
tioncd there GXpectcd that 5000 visitors
would be leaving the city.

Some of those most interested
in carrying out the arrangements
for Armistice Day have "called"
us good and hard for emitting to
mention the great work done by
Bob Smith, and now we know of
the work we hasten to come across.
According to these gentlemen, who
were on the ground and should be
informed, Bob is entitled to all the
way from seventy-five to ninety per
cent of the credit for the success
of the barbecue. While John De-
Lautre and John Stamps had
charge of the cooking, and did an
excellent job, it seems that Bob was
just about everything else, getting
the beeves, seeing that they were
dressed, securing the wood, working
night and day with the fire and a
hundred and one things too numer-
Gus to mention. The Democrat is
pleased to be able to give the facts
in the case and give Bob the credit
that is justly due him.
