Nelson Johnson, manager of the
Kirk Johnson Music House, at Lan-

the head, face and right side, shortly
evening,
in an automobile accident at Bam-
fordville, about five miles west of
Lancaster, along the Harrisburg
pike. He was hurried to the General
Hospital, where it was found that
his scalp was badly contused, a deep
cut over the right eye, his right jaw

OF HISTORIC INTEREST
Local and Rural Residents Supplied
Timber Many Years Ago
Thursday’s issue of the Lancaster
Daily Examiner contained the fol-
lowing of local interest:
“It is a matter of historic interest
to know where the timber came
from for the spire of Old Trinity
Lutheran church. Just after the
Revolutionary War Samuel Nissley
settled on a large tract of land in
Rapho township, near Sporting Hill,
which was heavily timbered. Mr.
Nissly began to clear the land and
Jacob Snavely, who had erected =
saw mill on Big Chickies creek, at a
point now known as Snavely’s Mill
near Lancaster Junction, dealt with
him extensively. Nissly sold to
Snavely a large quantity of logs at
twelve and a half cents apiece,
which were later sawed and mar-
keted in different sections. The
choicest of this stock was sold to

with his life.
Johnson, unaccompanied,
driving west on the pike in his six |
eylinder Saxon roadster and, accord-
ing to the version of witnesses of the
car collided with a
seven-passenger Pullman driven by
John Stauffer, of Lime Valley,
whose wife and mother were riding
in the rear seat. Johnson was as
cending the hill and is said to have
been to the left of the road. As he
reached the top, the approaching car
suddenly loomed up. In an effort
to get his car safely to the right, the
rear wheels skidded and crashed
into the Stauffer car.
The impact threw Johnson to the
accident, his
left side of the road, while his car |
ran into the left bank about fifteen
feet to the rear of the Stauffer car.
The two cars had no more thar

ELI SHAUM IN WRONG
Accused of Stealing Nickel, Copper
and Brass at Lancaster
During the past three weeks
nickel, copper and brass to the
value of upwards of $400 have been
stolen from the Lancaster Foundry
Company’s Plant, on the Manheim
turnpike near Lancaster and Con-
stable Steigerwalt Friday arrested
Eli Schaum and Charles Hahn, for-
mer employes, on the charge of
stealing the property. They were
prosecuted before Alderman Hein-
itsh by Hon. A. B. Hess, President
of the Company. The accused have
been held for a hearing. The men
roomed at the Old Keystone Hotel,
and when their quarters were
searched, books, a brush and
clothing, alleged to have been stolen
from the foundry, were found. Some
of the clothing Hahn had on when
arrested, was stolen from the
foundry, it is alleged. Hahn ad-
mitted to the magistrate stealing
metal, and Schaum confessed to
stealing the brush. It was learned
that Hahn had hired a
several occasions and driven to the
vicinity of the foundry. Hahn con-
fessed selling what he stole to local
junk dealers. Schaum would admit
to stealing nothing but the brush.

The Schwab Fire |
Mr. and Mrs. Christian Schwab, |

evening. During their absence Mrs.

ticed a bright light in the Schwab |
kitchen and upon investigating |
found it was a fire. She reported to |
the neighbors who quickly respond- |
ed. Mr. Schwab was sent for and it |
was found that a couch was on fire. |
A few buckets of water soon ex- |
tinguished the blaze, the damage be- |
ing only slight. The origin of the |
fire is a mystery and the supposi- |
tion is that sparks from a pipe Mr
Schwab was smoking shortly before |
he left, fell on the couch and set it |
on fire. i

WHEN WAS THIS?
An Old Newspaper Tells of Demo-
cratic Birth Here
In leafing thru old bible re-
cently, Miss Joanna Miller of this
place, found a very interesting
clipping which read as follows:
“James H. Reed, of Mount Joy,
writes us that in that town which
heretofore has not had enough
Democrats to place a Democratic
ticket in the field, all the men elect-
ed from the various tickets were
Democrats.”
There is no date
whatever and we are at a loss to
know just how long ago this oc- |
curred. Possibly some of our older |
citizens can give us some light on |
the subject.
