 HURT BY TRUCK
 Mrs Miller Jones was knocked down and painfully injured Satur- day a little before noon by large truck near the corner of Avenue E and Nineteenth street. She was car ried to a doctors office nearby and later was taken to the Ensley mfr mary. where it was discovered that she had suffered a broken left arm and several other bruises. It was said that the accident was unavoid- able, as the negro who was driving the truck stopped the machine with in few feet after striking Mrs. Jones, who had just stepped off the curb, and no arrest has been made.
 PAVING HELD UP
 The completion of the paving of Eighth Avenue road between Ensley and Birmingham has struck another snag after it was thought that the right of way had been secured. The road is paved all the way from Bi-r mingham to Ensley with the cxcep- tion of about a mile and quarter just beyond Owenton, and it is stated that when the map was sent down to the city engineers by the Bush estate and when the papers were gone over to deed the city tho right of way, it was found that other prop erty owners had not given their con- sent for the paving of the road.
 The members of the Ensley real estate board who have been work ing on this matter for sometime have offered their services if they could be of any service in getting the obstructions removed in order to get the Eighth avenue route finished. This route, when completed. will be the most direct route connecting Ems ley with Birmingham and will also help relieve the congested conditions on the Third avenue route, and the members of the real estate board and many Ensley citizens are very anx- ious for this connection to be paved.
