Horton Has Left Log Broken While in Worcester—Little Daughter Uninjured, Reports _received here Wednesday from St. Vincent's hospital ‘in Wor- cester indicated that Mrs, Stephen D.

In some unaccountable manner Mr. Horton was not notified of the accldent until Tuesday and he was astounded when he learned that Mrs. Horton was lylng at the hospital suffering from a compound fracture of the left leg, at a point between the kneo and ankle, and so serious in nature as.to cause the bones to protrude through the flesh before the reduction was made by the hospital surgeons. Flderic Legasey, of 62 Maynard street, Worcester, Wwas driving the ma- chine that struck Mrs. Horton and the little girl, who escaped with no more serious hurt than a slight abrasion on the face. Legasey, who was summon- ed to Station 1 of the Worcester po- lice department, pleaded as a_defense that Mrs. Horton and the child ran out in front of his car from the side- walk. Mrs. Horton's version is that they stepped out to take the car and were struck before they had a chance to save themselves and that she was dragged a car length, : Mrs Horton and the child were taken In an ambulance to the hos- pital. Mr, Horton returned here with the little ‘girl Wednesday evening. Mr.. Horton will confer with an torney when in Worcester today will arrange for a thorough inves tion of the eccident and the circi stances surrounding it. He is greatly distressed over the affair.

Pearson, who lost his life on the Lusitania, leaves a big vacancy,” says a Boston finan- cial journal, and further: “Who will succeed Pearson? is a question that is on the'lips of many persons in the financial district. Active in many parts of the world, he was responsible for many big electrical pro- jects into which chiefly British money found its way.” Owing to the unsettled state of af- fairs in Mexico, where a number of Pearson companies were operating, and the inabllity to raise funds for com- pleting plans that were originated in Spain, it is generally conceded that a_difficult task lies ahead of the man Who undertakes to be his successor. These enterprises involved the expen- diture of $50,000,000, Companies known as Pearson organizations and located chiefly in Mexico and South American countries have a total capitalization of more than $150,000,000, Dr. Pearson, who lived here as a boy and whose career has always been followed with.a great deal of inter- est, got his start in Boston with the electrification of the street railway lines of that city, NEW IDEAS FOR CHAUTAUQUA.

A thunderstorm came up, however, and greatly interfered with the arrangements and a second at- tempt to make the run was hardly more successful. If the weather proves more_propitious this year, it is hoped to_overcome some or all of the diffi- culties encountered last year. iness houses will not be adve THURSDAY, Overnight Relief For Constipation When the bowels = become clogged with a mass of poison- ous stomach waste, sick, head- aclie with all its attendant mis- ery, belching of sour stomach gases, bloat and general discom- fort are sure to follow.
