fast ruto of speed and although wit

rirhcr oldently did not hear him.
The doctor nrrhod befuro wo left
the Hpot, and Miss Smith was pro
nounced dead by him. Tho party left
tnttn shortly after !) o'clock and when
the accident happened It" must hnvo
been about 9:30.
Tho car went ocr the embankment
near tho culvert on the town side of
tho court house. Tho brakes and

Tho car was not going faster than

Tho car camo dow on top of him and
ho was pinned beneath It until Sorcn

nothing to do. Jjitcr on In town he
examined tho body and found that the
loft side of the faco wan bruised, and
Ihn the base of the skull was frac
tured. Thero wcro other bruises on
tho arms and body. Dcnth, In wit
ness' opinion, was caused by tho frac
ture of tho skull.
Frank Thompson then wns callel
and ho told of tho dangerous condi

how he had kepi too far to tho right
'as ho approached the culvert. A big
electric arc light that stood soino dis
tance from tho rond, threw Its beams
into tho eyes of chauffeurs, and n

SIERRA READY BY
FIRST OF MARCH
(Continued from tut 1) l
while thero Is no degree of certainty
that the excursions wljl eventually bo
pulled off, tho Oceanic Steamship Co
has received a number of inquiries
from large parties of tourists and or
ganizations with a Wow of visiting the
Hawaiian Islands.
Tho Sierra Is particularly adapted fot
this class of business nnd the ii(u
pecta aro exceedingly bright that a
scries of. special trips will bo made
by tho steamer before taking up her
regular run to Honolulu.
Tho Alameda will continue on tho
rim between tho Islands and the coast
until tho Sierra will lmo finished with
tha excursion business now contem
plated by tho Sun Francisco office.
Whether the Alameda wll ho con
tinned on tho San Francisco-Honolulu
run In conjunction with the Sierra af
ter that' vessel makes up her regular
schedule to tho Islands Is a mutter that
will necessarily bo governed entirely
by the amount of passr.tgcr Ira lie
and freight business offered tho two
vessels. I
It Is contended that steamship com
panies, llko most every other business
enterprise, uio not operating In tho
interests of philanthropy. They are
out tor a fair and reasonable profit on
tho Investment. Should' thero bo
largo passenger bookings but a small
frolght offering, such business Is de
clared will not warrant tho continued
npoiatlon of the two stoamers. '
This, however, is u matter that can
nut bo determined until after tho HI
eria has taken up her now run In con
nection with that toered by the Alu
medu. .,
