Cars Collide at La Grand Corner.

S. Stewart, in turning the corner
in his car at the La Grand hotel Fri
day evening ran into the car driven
by Dwight Stebbins and the two cars
locked together in such a manner
that it was with difficulty that they
were pulled apart. 1t was rather
dark at the time and the Stebbins car
was said to have had no lights. Fur
Their than that, Mr.. Stewart was
watching a car with lights come in
from the north and thus had little
chance to see anything at the side.
The running board of the Stebbins
car was badly bent while the lights
of the other car were knocked out
and considerable paint scratched off.
