Connersville Going Dry Injures The Street: Sprinkling Business

SALOONS REFUSE TO PAY

Connersville, ind., April 7. Strange, isn't it, but the water wagon will not run at Connersville this summer, because the county went dry. It might be expected that a dry town would mean an extra big water wagon, but not so at. Connersville. A number of saloons , .were on the route of the street sprinkler and as some of them w ill be out of business when the dust period . arrives and other owners will want to save their money, the operator of the wagon has announced it is hardly probable , bis wagon will be doing business. : He says if all the saloons fail to pay him, there will not be enough money in the business.

STATES THAT BEGINNING TOMORROW, ALL DRIVERS SEEN SPEEDING THEIR MACHINES WILL BE ARRESTED. Automobilists would do well to take warning. Supt. Staubach has notified the members of the police force that drivers of autos are to be made to comply with the speed limitations. The edict is to become effective tomorrow, the chief preferring to give warning by means of the newspapers. Complaint has been made to the department and the chief has seen fit to issue his instructions. "There is getting to be so. many of those things about town, that something must be done," remarked the chief. "They dodge about from one side of the street to the other, in and out behind 'street cars, so that it is impossible for a person trying to cross the street to know where to step. And then when they get on the side streets, they have been in the habit of cutting loose, knowing they are not likely to meet a policeman. All of this must stop and the laws are to be obeyed." Carelessness Charged. It has been charged that drivers of machines have been very careless. The charge is made that they usurp the right of way requiring bicyclists and private conveyances to make

room for them. Sunday the operator of a machine was seen to follow a

little boy on a bicycle along Main

street. The lad would turn out to

avoid the heavy car and immediately the car swerved to follow him. The boy crossed into the street car tracks and the machine followed. The boy tried to avoid an accident and the automobilist appeared to seek one. Finally the boy was forced off the street, riding to South A street in order to escape the automobile. The autoists claim there, is not nearly as much danger as there appears from a spectator's viewpoint. They say their machines are kept under control and they can stop them within a very few feet, and the chances of danger are much less than they seem.

The celebration will be held on Monday this year instead of Sunday.

Good fortune was with Walter Test yesterday afternoon and after a fall from a dirt wagon in a runaway accident on the Main street bridge, he escaped uninjured. Test was driving east, when an automobile going in the same direction whizzed by. . Test3 team took fright and began to run. The wagon was empty and the horses had no difficulty in their downhill flight. Test reached for the brake handle, and. a lunge of the wagon threw him to ,the pavement. He struck on his shoulders and rolled over in true football style free from the wheels. He arose at once and began to run after the team, which continued across the bridge, the wagou barely missing two other vehicles a it passed. Just under the C, C. & L. bridge, one of the horses sulopped and

fell. The wagon fan up onto it and the other horse stopped. The horso bridge, one of the horses slipped and bruised, but it is not bellevec to be seriously injured. It was able to get-to its feet, when the wagon was pulled away and did not appear much tho worse for the accident.
