CRASH HALTSTEST
OF WRECK THEORY
Making: a test run on the Georgia
Railroad to demonstrate that an ac
cident of two years ago easily was
avoidable, fast freight No. 210 piled
up in a head-on collision Tuesday
night with switch engine No. 614 at
the Hurt street crossing, injuring
two of the train crew seriously.
The Georgia Railroad is being sued
by Engineer Gillian, who was injured
In a wreck at Decatur two years ago.
Gillian asserts he was approaching
the station at a fast rate and was un
able to see the train which was stand
ing on the track.
Tuesday’s test was being made to
determine whether or not Gillian was
right in his assertion.
Switching Conductor R. A. Perrot’s
back was wrenched badl^ in the col
lision and Emmett Smith, a negro
brakeman, was cut about the back
and head. Perrot was taken to the
Tabernacle infirmary and Smith to
Grady Hospital.
The members of the swtiching crew
•ay they understood train No. 210
would not be along for ten minutes
and that for this reason they had
not been in a hurry to clear the
track for the demonstration. The
officials of the railroad began an im
mediate investigation. Superintend
ent Brand, of Augusta, is conducting
the inquiry.
Oath Bars Chicagoan
From State St.; Can't
Remain Sober There
CHICAGO, Sept. 3.—Hereafter when
Robert H. Court goes shopping in a
State street department store he must
cf^fully skirt the lake shore and slip
In through an entrance on Wabash
avenue or on one of the cross streets
in the loop.
Once inside he may gaze longingly
down on State street from a window,
but closer than that Court may not go
on pain of breaking a lifelong oath
which he took in municipal Judge Sa-
bath’s court.
Mrs. Court told Judge Sabath that
her husband followed the strait and
narrow path except when he got on
State street. His State street itinerary,
she said zigzagged from one saloon door
to another. Whereupon Court arose, ad
mitted the charge, raised his right hand
on high and solemnly took oath that
so long as he lived he would never
walk, ride or set foot on State street,
nor cross it.

2,000 in the school attendance, Super
