Owner of Flat Car Comes To Drive it Back to Chicago.

H. D. Jones, the Chicago real estate man, whose big Flat auto overturned just north of the city while ho was en route from Chicago to Indianapolis to attend the auto races oil May 30th, arrived in Rensselaer this Wednesday morning to drive his car back to Chicago. While the car had suffered considerable damage when it was grerturned, it was in good enough condition after the new wheel was installed to run and Mr. Jones expects to put the car in a factory and have it overhauled. The glass front and frame was broken off, the top torn off, both rear wheel fenders bent and the body of the car dented in several places, and other slight damage. Mr. Jones state)! that Mrs. Jones proved not to be seriously injured. It was first thought that she had suffered a fracture of two ribs, but this proved not to be the case. Mr. Jones himself was only slightly bruised and her brother escaped injury altogether. Aa the big seven-passenger auto turned over on top of them, the escape was not far short of miraculous. We are headquarters for all Unde of picnic goods. “Full </ream” and “Brick Cheese,” peanut butter, canned meats and fish, all Unds of pickles and olives in glass, root and birch beer, sarsaparilla, ginger-ale, and grape juice.
