Fowler Party in Anto Collision Mear Hoodland.

Early last Saturday morning a Ford car driven by Lloyd Penick,

colored, collided with another machine on the Goodland-Remington road. Both machines were badly wrecked but all the occupants except Penick, who received a slight cut on the left arm, escaped unhurt. Penick accompanied by Dave Blakely and Percy Edwards, were returning home from Rensselaer about 1 o'clock in the morning when they met the other machine whicu wa.3 from Rensselaer on the road a few miles east of Goodland. It seems that Penick was on the dirt track and when he attempted to get onto the gravel the other car side-swiped him. Both machines were put out of commission and it will require several dollars to repair them. The Fowler parties say the other fellows are to blame for the accident.—Benton Review.
