AUTO AND TROLLEY
COLLIDE

An Overland touring car driven by
Joshua Bowker collided with a trolley
car Thursday evening about 7.30 at the
corner of Fourth and Pennsylvania ave-
nues. In the car besides Mr.. Bowker
we're Mrs. Bowker, Mr.. and Mrs. Clar-
nece Keller and their small son. All
the adults we're cut by flying glass
from the broken windshield. but the
little fellow was uninjured. They were
treated at the Mace hospital. The mot.
orman of the car, William Kaufman,
was not injured. The auto was going
east on Fourth avenue and the trolley
was going north. Owing to the storm
Mr.. Bowker had the curtains on his car
and this no doubt prevented him from
having a clear view and was on the
tracks before he realized his danger.
the auto was struck quite forcibly near
the center and turned half way around
and pushed over against a telephone
pole. 1t was badly smashed. The troll
ley car was also damaged considerably,
the front being pushed in and some win
dows being broken.
