MRS. H. STRICkER HURT
She Was Securely Pinned Be-
tween Street Car and An
Automobile

Mr.. and Mrs. H. A. Stricken, 1884
South Front street. had very mar
row escape from being killed in a
collision with street car No. z. This
accident occurred about 6:45 Satur-
day evening. Car No. is now look
ed upon as the hoodoo car of the
Mankato Electric Traction line, ow-
ing to the fact that 1t has been mixed
up in more accidents than any other
car on the system.
Mr.. Stricken, in a statement to a rep
resentative Of The Free Press, SAID
that he was backing out Of his yard
at the time mentioned with his Ford
car. When he had backed the automo-
bile So that the hind wheels were Out
on the car tracks, he looked and saw
no street car in sight. He tried to
go ahead, but says that his car stalled
in the reverse, and meantime the
street car came along and bumped in
to his car. The impact threw Mrs
Stricken out between the auto and the
street car where she was pinned I'm
til the auto was lifted away. The re-
suit was that Mrs. Stricken sustained
a number of painful bruises about the
lower limbs, the back, and her left
thumb was dislocated. She is now
confined to her bed, but 1t is thought
that no bones were broken. Mr.
Stricken escaped without injury. The
auto was somewhat damaged.
