Confusion in Running Time Given a
Reason for Collision on Arizona

third car on the iine is given as the
cause of a head on collision of cars

The outbound car was in charge of
conductor W. F. Salsbury and motor-
man C. F. Landmark. The motorman's
explanation of the accident was that

the line It is said that passengers on I
Tne car warnea me motorman of the
tj atead. but that he continued duwn '
tiie Frade from Oregon stri et at top
speed. The inbound car was at a stand-
still when the collision occurred and
the motorman of the outbound one had
reversed his power and set his brakes
thus reducing the impact.
The injured who were on the out-
bound car. were:. Miss Florence San-
ders slightly bruised on the face and
head; TV". H. Hotter bruised on the
face and both knees skinned; P. E.
Bloomer left knee wrenched. Motor-
man J. H. Reinisch of the inbound car
was the only one who received a se-
rious injury. His left leg was cut to
the bone when the collision occurred.
He does not know how his Injury was
received.
There were only a few passengers
on the inbound car and no one except th
motorman was injured. The cars were

East Vaughn. The cause of the fire
is supposed to have been an overheated

been no insurance carried on the build-
ing' or furniture.
The East Vausrhn district issued bonds
but little over a year ago for the pur-
pose of erecting two school buildings
both in the city of East Vaughn and the
one destroyed is said to have cost some-
thing over $3000 and one of the best
planned school buildings in the county
