AUTO CRASHES INTO TRUCK

A bad smash-up occurred about
fifteen miles northeast of Philip
on the Black and Yellow Trail on
Tuesday afternoon. One of the
large Federal trucks loaded with
bridge material was going east and
upon reaching the bridge across
Buzzard Creek, the driver at
tempted to shift the gears and
killed the engine. While the ma
chine was stalled one Of the men
went down the bank to get a pail
of water for the radiator, leaving
the truck standing on the bridge

companied by two other men, APP

going at a high rate of speed At
this point the bridge cannot be
seen from the road until the brow
of the hill is reached a short dis
lance away. Mr. MERIT claims that
the brakes we're both working and
that they were Immediately applied
but the car was going very fast
and this fact coupled with the
fact they were going down hill
made it impossible to stop. Meth
er could they turn out of the road
on either side without going over
the bank and into the creek. One

of the men jumped before the
crash and sutained a badly sprain-
ed ankle and other bruises and
scratches. The other two remain
ed in the car and were also more
or less injured, Mr. Merritt having
several fractured ribs. The men
with the truck, John Hagarty and
John Valiant, jumped off the
bridge and were not injured.
Both machines were badly dam
aged, the touring car, Chalmers
Six, being very badly bunged up,
two wheels broken off and the
frame and body broken and twist
ed. The truck had the front wheels
driven back and the frame broken
but it is not thought the damage
is as heavy as on the lighter ma
chine.

noon. The roads were wet and
heavy and Mr.. Root was having
difficulty in making the hill with
a load Of oil and gas. Just as he
reached the top of the long hill
near the Peter Anderson place the
engine was killed and the truck
Immediately started back down
the hill. The gears had been shift
ed into neutral and the brakes not
in working order the machine soon
gained tremedous speed. Mr. Root
managed to keep it in the road
until near the bottom when it
went into the ditch and turned
completely over.
Mr.. Anderson witnessed the acct
dent and hurried to the scene but
Fred had managed to get out from
under the wreck by the time he
arrived. He was brought to town
and is now confined to his home
nursing a badly injured leg and
others cuts and bruises. The ma
chine was not badly damaged and
very little Of the load of oil was
lost.
