The I'l'iinchiso dates from Oct. 2llnl last when the old franchise expired Cupinin A. .1. Vance, nimimrer, and , tilts Newbui'v. attorney for tile com panv were present. The chief points ol. interest about the new franchise aro .unit it reomres the coinpanv to remove all its polos from the street into the alleys within a period of five years, and rcouires the paintinc of all new poles as fast ns tbev arc in staled. Kurd's Protest lKnored E, J.

Another fealuro of the new friin ubisc is that company obtains it for AUTO ACCIDENT I An accident partially due fo the new street parking ordinance, which rcouires uutos and other vehicles to bead in at a lonir ant:lc at the curb occurred on West Main near the Fit ytreet comer late vesterdav afternoon when a ear driven bv .Mrs. Hurt It. Klliott struck a biiirirv in which were a man from the country, said to he a llx. Dickson, and his vouni; son. and the man was thrown out headlong to tho pavelneut. Kiiffivintr u bad L'ash cut in bis forehead, ilis injury was dressed at (be West Side druir store bv Dr. II. I!. JlareVnve. alter which he went home. The boy was uninjured. No blame is attached to Mrs. Kl liutt. who was not drivinir fast. It seems that the man mil into the biiL'U'V to drive away and while he was still standiiiL' und before bo hud picked up the lines the horso beiran backiii!.' out into the street. Mrs. Kl liott eaine aloiiL' lust then on that side of the street, and on the oilier ide of her was another auto itiovin'' n the opposite direction. Therefore she was unable to turn out ill time when the butiirv was ; bakcV up in front of her. ' ' ' , 'Tho accident furnished much dis cussion among the eitv eoune'iltneii last night, reviving tho old: contro versy among them as to which is I lie b.elter method for the parkiinr ordin ance, tcf head in . to tjio curb or to buck in.
