George S. Tiffany, who lives at 405 East Sherman street, was knocked aut0mobiIe near the corner of Walnut and Sherman streets at 6:30 o'clock Wednesday, and sustained injuries that are liable to prove fatal He is In the automobile at the time were Mrand Mr; Hendrickson! J' A' JVey 106 West Fifth avenue. They had been 'driving about the city and 'were on their way to Partridge where Mrs Ivey was to visit for a few days, At time of the accident, Mr. Tiffany was riding along the street on his bicycle, headed west, but look ing back over his shoulder convers ing with a friend. The Hendrickson automobile with Mr.

Hendrickson at the wheel, was headed east. They had been going'at lively rate of speed, but when they noticed Mr. Til fany's position they slowed down, and gave warning of his danger, by tooting the horn. Mr. Tiffany looked up and tried to pedal out of the way.

The automobi'e and wheel swerved in the same direction at the same time, owing to the confusion, and the heavy' machine struck the wheel. Tiffany was thrown for a dis tance iof several feet, and it is sup posed! that his head was struck by the handle bars of his wheel, as he received a severe bruise at the base of the skull.

The wounds are considered not necessari ly dangerous, but doubt is yet held as to his ultimate recovery, The Hendrickson automobile stop ped shortly after 'the-- accident hap pened 'and the of the party offered every assistance they could.

The story as told by Mrs. Ivey places the accident in the unavoidable list Mr." Tiffany is so dazed that he does hot realize how the Witnesses to the afiwir place a part of the blame on the occupants of the automobile. Joseph Christphel, an old and respected citizen, living two and one half miles northeast of Partridge, almost instantly killed Tuesday morning 'when a team which; he was plowing corn -fright, and, started running He was ipaught iri'tne plow and dragged for a distance bf over a quarter of a His face, and body-were badly, cut by theplow share's -) It is presumed that the horsea took fright at an automobile passing along jthe road as a party was 'seeri driving -along the' road i' jfew 'ino- hierits prior to the accident. The names or where the party was from is- Fadts concerning-' the' accident are hard 'io obtain. Mr.

He was extriliafe'd but died before medical assistance could be procured. The animals with which Mr. tophel was plowing were spirited, and of a fractious disposition: It is thought that ChrIstophcf9 hands were caught in the reins and dragged under the shares.

A blow at the base of the skull is thought to have caused his death, received it is thought from fallihgr under the cultivator. Mr. Christophel has been a resi dent of Reno county for several years and is widely known. He leaves a wife, step-son ana step-daughter. Mrs.

Hern gathers his idea from the manner in which the Hutchinson vVa ter, Light Gas Company is making a practical paying proposition out ot its own plant, run on a small sca'e. but which tarnishes enough tiling for the company laying of water and gas service connections throughout the city, i Mr.

and other officials of the company give absolute proof of the plant being a paying and a method of saving hundreds of dollars to 1 the company each year. Prior to the placing of their indi vidual plant, the Hutchinson Water. Light Gas Company, purchased til ing from a combine at the rate of $2.60 tor each piece of tiling, the price jwhich still holds today. The company held its own price on all articles of clay material delivered and the local corporation forced ti stand good for any amout they chose to naijie. It went on for some time until the Water, Light Gas Com pany studied out plans and con structed a small plant of its own.

I-. wag discovered that the soil in and about Hutchinson was, especially adapted to the construction of tiling. The Hutchinson Water, Light Gas Company now constructs its own tiling at an approximate cost of 30 cents for each piece and makes enough to furnish every main and lateral water and gas service connection in the' city, although the plant is run on a small scale. Mr. Hern asks: "If the Hutchinson Water, Light Gas Company can save from $2.00 to $2.30 for each individual piece of tiling constructed, how much of a saving it be to the city of Hutchinson if the city furnished its own tiling made from its virgin soil for the laying of 44,500 cubic feet of sewer, both mains and laterals?" I Mr.

Hern is collecting Vdata and and can show that a factory could be constructed at a small cost, which would not only furnish' enough "tiling for the construction of the East Side but for any other amount of sewers the' city might deem neces sary to lay in years to come, in addi tion to furnishing tiling to private corporations. Mayor Harsha and the council will probably float bonds for the construc tion of the sewer in the East Side district within? the week, and bids wiU be "advertised or the work; Under thei present plans the contract would amount to over "$50,000 in PATENT LAW BRINGS TRADE England's Measure A Requires.
