Fortunately neither of the yoong men suffered any injury and but little dam age waa done, either to the automo bile or to the street car. The River street car was going Into the car barns when the machine turned the corner and in trying to avoid the curb they struck the car. The fault could | hardly be placed with either the car j motorman or the driver of the auto mobile, but rather with '.he fact, that) Whither street at that particular point] I? very narrow. -r-O-; Adopted The Best Method, (i While Anderson people were natur ally, interested In tho plan to secure moving pictures of tho oliy for the Panama Exposition, nevertheless ma ny Of them would have forgotten the j tune set for the people to'colloot on ! the . square had . it not been for the plan pursued by those In charge of j the arrangements 'for the picture.

Maybe Anderson ca,n't boast, of nany big. league ball players,, but the few originating in 'thin city have certainly been delivering tho goods ot atc. George McConnell., easily as food a, pitcher as ever wore a shoo plate, worked for Buffa'o in the In ternational league against Newark last rhursday afternoon and won his game by a score of 4 to C. The frolic last ed for 1G innings and during that Lime George yielded only 9 hits. The Buffalo team crrorred twice behind him. which probably accounts for at j least one of Newark's three runs.
