New Richmond.

Five gentlemen enroute from Clinton to LaFayette in a big Studebaker six, seven passenger touring car, all had narrow escape from fatal injury in an automobile wreck on the road north of New Richmond, half way between the homes of Stephen J. Beaver and Frank Kantz at about 10 o’clock Tuesday morning. The car driven by one of the young men of the party was goitig at a speed of about forty miles an hour. The road had been regraded only the day before, the car striking some loose dirt left by the grader, skidded and began cutting capers back and forth across the road and after one and a half somersaults landed upside down squarely in the middle of the road, the machine headed southwest. All the men were thrown clear of the car, landing on either side, and all were more or less stunned and bruised. The ladies at the Kantz home were eye witnesses of the near tragedy, and sent help to the scene of the wreck. The men were taken to the Kantz home, and Dr. Mitchell of Romney was called to attend them. They suffered no broken bones, but all were considerably bruised, and all were stunned into insensibility in being dashed out of the machine into the road. The five men were W. H. Haskell, his twin sons, Rex and Max, and Clay and Arthur Bumgarden, well to do farmers living near Clinton. The party were on their way to LaFayette where Arthur Bumgarden and Max Haskell were to enter Purdue. The machine, a handsome new car which had been driven only about six weeks, belonged to Mr, Haskell and was driven by his son Max when the accident happened. Dr. Mitchell took the two Purdue boys with him to Romney where they took the train on to LaFayette. Evan Weyles brought Mr. Haskell, his son Rex and Clay Bumgarden to New Richmond, and from here they took the afternoon train back to Clinton.

When you hear a man running down his home paper or any other local industry, take a good look at him. Ten to one he has a chin as long as a rail and eyes as restless as a horse thief and he will squirm around in his chair as though he was on the verge of a nervous collapse. Talk with him a while and you will find that he has made a failure of everything he undertook to do (except being disagreeable) you will find him meddlesome, hateful and unreliable. A man who is always complaining and although he has but little, if anything of his own, one would imagine to hear him talk that he had a quit claim deed to earth and a first mortgage on heaven. He knows everybody’s business and why shouldn’t he? He has none of his own to take up hia time. Such people, like mosquitos, were not created in vain. Perhaps but one fact remains staple, they do not add. materially to the pleasure of conducting a legitimate business.
