AUTO CLIMBS TELEPHONE in II This !s the story of ' Joe the Demon Priver," or ''The Acrobatic Auto." and Involves one machine, two men. a horse and wagon and last, but not least, a guy wire which supports one of the telephone poles in our fair city. This trick car climbed the wire almost to t'.ie top that's all. Unfortunately l;s training had not involved a way of descending so it simply turned over and dropped to the grotind. The driver and trainer of the tight wire auto is Joe Przespolnuski. 3S25 Fir street, Indiana Harbor. His companion disappeared in the moment of amazement which followed the remark able feat, and hi? name was not learned. Joe was driving his auto down Fayette street Saturday and attempted to pass a wagon on the wrong side of the street. He was forced over the curb into the wire, and his momentum carried the machine up for quite a distance. Then, never having practiced hack sliding, the ear was forced to fall off its perch. Fortunately. Joe and his friend e;"caped injury. Not so the car. however. It was badly smashed. FRUIT SCARCITY Ci km Very Little Will Be Done Here This Season Peach Supply is Small. Fruit for canning this season is ery scarce and proportionately high, according to local grocers. There are very few peaches In the country and reports from the Michigan districts are that peach growers there have barely enough for their personal use. Several weeks a?o a shipment of peaches was received from Georgia which sold for $3.75 a bushed. The same peaches, if any could bo obtained a this time, would cost $6 or $6.5fi it is said. Other fruit crops are also short and !l is predicted that at the present high prices little canning will be dnc.
