Stanislaus Stawas ‘Ran to Cross Street as Merrill Jones Drove Along, Another automobile accident was added to the recent string of mishaps in this city and vicinity, when Stanis- laus Stawas, a pupil of St. Joseph's parochial school, was knocked down on Jackson street by an auto owned and driven by Merrill H. Jones, the contractor. It is stated by witnesses that there were two cars passing at the time, from opposite directions, and the boy started to cross the road between them, then turned back right in front of Mr. Jones' car so quickly that the latter, who was running at a slow rate of speed, could not avoid hitting him. The hood of the engine struck the boy on the right shoulder, knocking him down. Mr. Jones and a bystand- er started to carry him into the hos- pital, which is nearby, but the lad said he was not hurt, and asked to be taken home. A physiclan examined him later at his home on Ives street, and found him all right, save for a bruised shoulder. MISS NICHOLS CONSClOUS. More Hopeful— Vaughn’s Condition News from Hospital Mr, and Mrs. Encouraging. Some hope was entertalned Mon- day evening for the recovery of Miss Nichols, who was injured in the automobile accident on Phoenlxvill hill Sunday afternoon, and is in St. Joseph’s hospital as a result. Miss Nichols received a compound fracture of the left leg, and was badly burned about the chest, arms and back, prob- ably by the water from the radiator. It was thought she received internal injuries, and it will be several days before that is known definitely. She regalned consciousness Monday morn- ing, and her chances are considered better than they were reported Sun- day evening, Mr. and Mrs. Vaughn are progress- ing as well as could be expected, and are not thought to be in any serious danger. When the automobile was examined at the garage, it was found that the foot brake did not have any effect on one wheel, but the emer- gency brake seemed all right. Just what caused the accident is not cer- tain, but it-is thought that in reaching to make some carburetor adjustment, to stop the car, Mr. Nichols was un- able to control it with one hand on the slippery road, and the accident resulted, CARD PROPERTY SOLD. Main Street Real Estate Purchased by John L. Hall of Boston. A real estate deal which has been in the works for some time has finally been made, the Card property so- called, next to the Opera house block on Main street, having been sold to John L. Hall of Boston, formerly of this city, who with his mother, is the owner of the Opera house property. The Card property was left by the late Hannah T, Card, together with other property, to five trustees for an old people’s home to be established in { this city, and they were given per- mission to sell it if in their judgment advisable. This has now been done, but as the estate will not be settled until fall, in all probability, the money will not be available for use in build- ing a home this season. It is expect- ed that a start will be made next ring on the land recently purchased on McDermott avenue, just off Wind- ham road. The price for which the property was sold has not been made public.
