Another car was going east, Mr. Berger’s car be- ing the middle car. His car swerved, strick the front fender of Mr. Ben- hnett’s car, thus causing the rear end of the Berger car to skid sharply and the car to overturn. Mr. ‘Herbert, Mrs. Herbert and Miss Minnie Wolfe were eye-witnesses to the accident. Mr, Berger caught the heaviest force of.the accident. Peter Aller probably suffered one or two broken ribs. Mrs, ‘Aller suffered a gash on the head and injury to a foot. Mrs. Berger and Mrs.. Isle were bruised badly about the face and head and perhaps suffered bodiiy injuries. The little boy was the luck- iest person in the accident, escaping with scratches. The occupants of the overturned car were brought to the hospital as quick- ly as possible’and given prompt atten- tion. All were reported doing very well today, althougn. the extent of all injuries had not been determined. The Berger car was badly wrecked but wes brought into the city this morning under its own power. The Bennett car fender was smashed and some damage done to the radiator and , Wheel. Dangerous Spots. Although ‘the penitentiary road is wide and was graveled last fall and dragged this spring there are spots in the road which are dangerous 19 automobiles, according to local garaBe men. In places there are low places in the road which are. sandy, and it 1s easily possible for a car to be over- turned if an attempt is made to swerve while the car wheel is in such a spot.

Qualley waived examination to the charge and was pound over to district court on $1,000 bonds. The complaint against Qualley, the owner of a pool hall at Christine, al- leges he and another man took two Christine girls to a point outside of that town. Qualley then produced some moonshine and offered it to the girls. One girl refused and was forced to drink, the officers claim. F Another party came along with a gallon ‘of moonshine and in a short time the girls were intoxicated. They were then taken to a room over the pool hall, After that the girls. recol- lect nothing. The erime was characterized by Moloney .as “the most vicious” ever experienced by him. The girls in- sist they did not know Qualley had liquor when they joined him. 'W. L.

This case is similar to a recent one at Aberdeen in which two girls were poisoned from moonshine, it was said here yesterday.

Another joint of transpor- tations carries that link on to. the great jobbing house, and again there is a-joint of transportation which car- ries on to the last link in the pipe} line, which is the retailer. Now any manufacturer who thinks thet he has made a gale because he has moved his merchandise out of this tank to one or the other links of that pipe is making a great mistake.
