With $4,000 miles of roadway be-
hind him, inspite of the fact that he
is crippled so that he can only get
about with the aid of crutches, Rich
ard B. Coogan of New York City,
drove his specially constructed mo-
torcycle into this city Friday night
on his way back to his home by the
way of Portland and Boston.
Mr.. Coogan in the $4,000 miles
which he has travelled has been to
Florida, New Mexico, California and
Canada and has travelled the entire
distance alone except for pedestrians
whom he has picked up along the
road.
! Because Of his crippled condition
he is unable to ride the motorcycle
as is ordinarily done and instead rides
in the side car with special controls
handy to his right hand and the spec
ial steering bar in his left.
The side car is placed upon the left
of the motorcycle so that he sits on
the left of the machine and can see to
pass other vehicles. just as in the or
binary left hand drive automobile.
An extension arm on the left side of
the steering post, about two feet long
is connected by a swivel to a long

hand and in this way he is able to
steer the machine. The starter, gas.
spark, clutch and gear shift have all
been placed on the left side of the
motorcycle and so fixed that he can
start the engine, shift gears and
regulate the speed of the machine
with his right hand.
Mr.. Coogan in telling of his ad-
ventures with the machine said that
about the most hopeless feeling that
he had ever had was on Friday when
he got stuck in the mud near Madi-
son. Being crippled he was unable to
get out and push and could but sit
there in the rain and wait for some
one to come along. After about an
hour man with an auto came
along and helped him to get out.
He said that in cities he is often
stopped by traffic officers who as they
glance at the machine and see no one
in the saddle think that it is running
away. The ease with which he
handles the machine however, quick
ly convinces them that everything is

Four automobile accidents within
"a hours in this city and its immedi-
ate environs was the record for the
week lend. In the most serious of
this series Of motor car crashes, that
in which the Oullette family of six
persons Of Lewiston was concerned,
when their car left the road at what
was said by witnesses to have been
a fast rate of speed and struck two
telegraph poles. breaking one short
off. Edwina. the three-year-old
daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. Edmond
Oullette suffered a double fracture of
one leg. 1t being broken both above
and below the knee. 1t was neces-
sary to take two other members of
this party to the hospital for atten-
tion to their injuries. The other
three mix ups reported between 10
o'clock Saturday morning and Sun
day noon, were of a minor nature
with damages confined to the, cars
concerned.
The studebaker touring car owned
by Edmond Ouellettt Of Lewiston and
and their children, Lucienne, Ed
wilma, Eva and Conrad, and driven
by Lucienne Oullette was proceeding
toward this city about $50 Sunday
morning and when at point oear
the E. L. Worcester residence on out
er Western avenue, In rounding i
slight curve. the driver saw q car
coming toward him from the oppo-
site direction and swung too wide on
the turn. The Studebaker went off
the roadway into the gravel on the
shoulder of the highway and young
Oullette lost control of his machine
temporarily and it struck telegraph
| pole with such force that the pole
was broken off, and another pole
standing very near to the first was
also hit and bent over at a sharp
angle.
The Ouellette car sideswiped the
| poles in such manner that most of
| the damage to the car was to the
mudguards, running board and top,
which were practically stripped clean
from the body. The manner in which
the car struck the poles also probably
saved the machine from turning
over, with more terrible injuries to
it's occupants resulting. After clip
ping the two poles the Studebaker
was brought back into the road
again. The windshield was shattered
in the crash and Mrs. Ouellette suf-
fered cuts about the head and face
from the flying glass. She also
sprained one wrist very badly when
thrown forward by the impact.
The young son, Conrad Ouellette,
was severely cut about the face,
hands and tongue, and the little
three -year-old daughter, Edwina.
suffered the double fracture of her
leg. The other three members of the

SALVATION ARMY
TO SEND NEEDED
CLOTHING TO JAPS

In an effort to relieve the distress
which is sure to be caused by the
cold weather which begins in De-
cember in Japan, the Salvation Army
is to conduct a bundle day on Tues
day. A direct appeal from Japan
for such articles of clothing as will
best meet the needs of those ho
have been left homeless and de-ti-
tute in that country has been re-
ceived and to meet this situation the
Salvation Army has arranged to dis
patch several shiploads of clothing
and other necessities. Free shipping
facilities have been offered by steam
ship and railroad lines to help in
this work.
It is obvious that only certain ar
ticles of clothing will be of use in
Japan and donors should be guided
by the following list: Blankets, I'M
derwear for men, women and chill
dren; mems suits, shoes, stockings,
socks, cloth, wraps, cloaks sheeting,
needle and thread. tape, braid. but
tons, pins, face towels, soap and all
children's clothes.
Parcels should be sent postpaid or
by prepaid express to Ensign Law
renee, Salvation Army Building, 1.u-
gusta, Maine. Prompt action in this
matter will save the people in Japan
a tremendous lot of suffering.
The Army's work in Japan COM
menced in 1895 and up to the time
of the catastrophe there were few
towns in which the Army was not
operating. The progress made by
the Army during that time has been
most remarkable. The emperor of
Japan has for years sent an annual
contribution to headquarters and
the Crown Prince has also expressed
his appreciation of the work
In one of the most poverty strick-
en- districts of Toxic, the Salvation
Army hospital for the poor is sit
uated. It was opened in 1912 and
IN nine years there were more than
100000 patients treated here and
the majority of them were treated
without charge. The hours of con-
sultatton were made to fit the con-
venlence OF the patients and in this
way TWO ends were accomplished,
the patients were not obliged to lose
= days pay and well-known local
doctors contributed their services to
this worthy work.
This hospital has recently been re-
mooe!led and the Empress of Japan
sent her chief chamberlain to in
spect 1t on her behalf, at the same
sime sending a generous contribution
*or comforts for the patients. This
the first time in the history Of
any Christian institution that it rs
peen inspected by a member of the
imperial family.
