INJURIES TO HEAD CONDITION NOT
SERIOUS SENT TO HOSPITAL.

William Stimax, aged 20 years, son
OF Frank StimaX, of Gambler, was in
Jured yesterday afternoon at Gran
berry Station, when the truck he was
driving was struck by passenger
train No. 5, as it tried to cross the
track. StimaX, who is a chauffeur

Mill in one of the Army trucks which
the contractors have in service, for

fer treatment and was later placed
on the Pen Mar express train and
taken to the Union Protestant In
tirmary. He has scalp wound and
is bruised about the body. His
condition is not considered serious.
The impact put the locomotive out
of commission, delaying the train

Wooden Faces Fight I'm Carroll.

From the Baltimore American,
August 21.
Herbert r. Wooden, Speaker of the
last House of Delegates, is facing a
fight for Republican nomination for
State Senate in Carroll county. The
slate as originally arranged carried
Mr.. Wooden as candidate for re-
nomination for the House. According
to reports he consulted some OF
the state leaders of his party on the
outlook for his reelection as Speak
er if the Republicans again control
the next House. He did not receive
any encouragement, further, says the
report, as it was said his candidacy
would prove to be damaging to the
Republican state ticket in Baltimore
because of his radical dry record
in the House of Delegates. With
this information in hand Mr.. Wooden
is reported to have switched his am
bition from the House of Delegates
to the Senate ohamebr. Opposed to
him is former Senator Smith Snader,
who served notice on thermometers by
filing his papers with the Board Of
Election Supervisors before he at
tended a harmony meeting. This up
set the plans of Walter Rudy, the
Republican leader Of the county, who
preferred Peyton Gorsuch for the
Senate. MIR. Gorsuch is a candidate
for the House of Delegates. 1t is
declared that harmony cannot be es-
taiblished and maintained.
