The party had been out motoring for a couple of hours when it was de cided to go into the business districts. Mr. Murray, who was in charge of the car, swung into Seventh street off of Nicolett avenue and speeded toward Hennepin avenue. As he approached Hennepin he no ticed a Lake Harriet car slowly cross ing the street bound towards Wash ington avenue. Turning to one side, Mr. Murray thought he could clear the street car. He, however, miscal culated the distance and crashed into the car. Mrs. Murray, who was sit ting in the rear seat, was thrown about 15 feet. She struck on the back of her head and was rendered uncon scious. Miss Katherine Murray and ss Agnes Martin were also thrown from the automobile, but luckily escaped serious injuries.

After Mrs. Murray had been taken from the scene of the accident the other members of the party were taken to their homes in carriages. /tf Sounds Like Business This sounds as if Attorney General Miller really means business: "The prohibition law in Bismarck is no longer a joke. It will be en forced from now on. Every officer in Bismarck will hereafter be required to see that the prohibitory law is en forced. Any officer willfully failing or(neglecting to do his duty will be prosecuted for malfeasance in office and an action will be brought for his removal. It is nonsense for police and other officers to claim that they have no knowledge of violations when more than a dozen open places are run, where intoxicating liquor is openly sold.. There is not an officer in the city of Bismarck from the highest to the lowest that does not know the law is openly and flagrantly violated It is also nonsense to claim that the law cannot be enforced. There is no man or set of men in Bismarck greater than the law. I am acting upon in structions from Gov. Burke and his instructions will be faithfully carried out."—Assistant Attorney General Miller.
