SMASHED THE GLASS
IN GERIG'S STORE

Just after the bass drum doomed
the last note in one of the numbers
of the band concert last night, an
other and greater boom accompanied
by crash and the tinkling of splint-
cred glass caused the crowd to rush
to the front of Gerig's drug store,
where a Hudson car was doing its
best to get in the front door.
When the car was pushed back and
questions were asked, it was a hard
matter to find anyone among the wit
nesses who knew how it happened.
Willard Lockleer was driving the car
and is himself hazy as to how he
happened to lose control of his car.
Two theories are given by Willard
and the boys with him in the car. One
is that the foot accelerator stuck and
when he reached down with his hand
to pull it up the car got away from
him. The other, which is the more
likely explanation, is that he drivers
foot slipped off the clutch and on the
accelerator as he drew up to the
curb.
The Hudson is noted for its quick
get away and it certainly lived up to
it's reputation this time. 1t first took
down the wooden awning post from
the curb and drove it cross-wise into
the vestibule of the store, smashing
one large plate glass of the front and
both plates in the doors and breaking
the doors from the lower hinges. No
more damage than a broken headlight
was sustained by the car.
Lockleer was placed under arrest
by Officer Bronson and released on a
S25 bond. In recorders court this
morning the case was adjourned until
Monday morning. Witnesses who saw
the car as it turned the Commercial
Bank corner Immediately before at
tempting to park in front of Gerig's
say that Lockleer was not driving fast
Or recklessly. The accident was an
unfortunate one and friends of the
boy and Mr.. Gerig greatly regret
the occurrence.

NEW HOPE FOR
EMT0MB[D MINERS

Jackcon, Cal. Sept. 2.Mineve 80
the Mother Lode country, uear;ed bv
about one hundred hours Of eky.;r,
were heartened in their work Of rra-
cue for the forty-seven men s,stomh-
ed in the Argonaut mine here tonight
by two things. Fresh men frxr,
mine in Nevada were at work t.k;nc
some of the stress from the shoulder
of their California fellows. and fresh
air was seeping from the Arponant
mines lower levels to the neichborino
Kennedy workings.
This gave new basis for hone that
the men they sought 70 relieve had
not been suffocated BY fumes from
the fire which trapped them IN the
lower levels of the famous old eold
producer and might be saved.
The rescuers in one narrow aman
way" tunnel were declared to be
seventy feet from the point where
they must open a raise Of several
hundred feet which is closed with
earth and rock. It Is not expected
that either this party or that which
is attempting to 60 through Q larger
tunnel. partly blocked with debris and
and further closed by . solid bulkhead,
will be able to get into the Arronaut
mines this week.

sweet mignonette,
If you can't guess the secret, we have

The boys, Daniel Albert and Conrad KundIe, spend their winters touring the country. but when the summer time comes you'll find them up on the farm in Yantic in a "get.. back to nature" act. The boys, about five years ago, pur- chased q place next to the Elijah s. Abel place. near Yantic, and the people in -tflat vicinity know them well, for many night have the boys been forced to rig up their shining steel wire in the old barn and go through their act for the benefit of the neighbors. and their act is some act. Not only are they clev- CT artists Of the wire but they are also clever acrobats and weave some good stunts in with the wire work just to add a little more pep to the performance.
 The other acts on the bill measure ID to the high standard set by the lo- l cal boys and as whole the bill is ont of unusual merit. The Harry Brooks Company presents an exceptionally clever sketch.
