AUTO SMASHED AND GIRL MAY DIE OF INJURIES. Miss Mabel Hemming of « Burlesque Troupe Is the Victim MACHINE HITS Fiance Drives Car Too Fast and Occupants Are Hurled Out TWO UNCONSCIOUS Miss Millie Meredith Is Seriously, Hurt, but Will Recover Miss Mabel Hemming, member of the Kolb end Dill theatrical company, t>ho v>as probably fatally injured yesterday in en culotnobile smashup at Oakland. ** OAKLAND, Aug. 6i— Hurled' from an automobile which "skidded across the road as the chauffeur attempted to turn a sharp corner, Miss Mabel Hemming, a member of the Kolb and Dill company at the Columbia theater, was probably fatally - injured today, and Miss Millie Meredith, another member of the company, was serious ly hurt- Peter Carrender, who was driving the machine, and another man, who was a member of the party, escaped uninjured front. the wreck. A sad feature of the accident was . the feet that Miss Hemming was engaged to Carrender and they were to have been married about the middle of this month. The accident occurred on ' the . San Leandro road near Niles, as the party was returning from a trip to . San ' Jose. Carrender was running the machine at a high rate of speed when he at tempted to turn'a sharp bend -in the rocd. The automobile skidded and collided -with a telegraph pole. The entire side of the tonneau was crushed in and aJI the occupants were hurled from the machine. Miss Hemming was thrown head first against the tele graph, pole and dropped senseless to the ground. Miss Meredith also was rendered unconscious by the shock of her fall. Carrcnd*r and^his companion, who boyond^a few bruises were not injured, hastened to aid the two girls and Miss Meredith soon recovered con sciousness. Miss Hemmlng's condition was at once seen to.be serious, how ever, and she was removed "to the Cen terville sanatorium, where late tonight little hope was held out- for her recov ery. It is believed that she is suffering from concussion of the. brain and In ternal Injuries. Carrendef, to whom. 3-liss Hemming is betrothed. Is almost prostrated- as a. result of the accident and declared that but for his attempting to make the turn at high speed the accident would have been averted. Miss Meredith returned to Oakland tonight, but could; give' no account of the accident, except to say that it hap psucd so' suddenly, that the first inti mation the had .that -anything was wrong was when the machine crashed into the pole, throwing the members of the party in all directions. Carrender remained at the \u25a0 bedside of .Mits Heimriing. refusing: to", leave her until the extent of her injury could be ascertained.
