TWO KILLED IN AUTO ACCI-
DENT AT SWEET HOME
Car Overturns While Going 50 Miles
Aa Hour.
Driving at a rate of about 50
miles an hour, J. E. Gaither lost
control of his car when he attempted
to dodge several holes in the road
about a mile south of Sweet Home
and turned turtle twice. Earle Col-
tart, Gaither’s companion, was killed
instantly and Gaither was injured so
badly that he died about 9 o’clock
last night. John D. Sanders, a third
occupant of the car, escaped with
minor injuries.
Little could be learned of Gaither
as he does not live in this city. He
was the owner of the car and had it
in the jitney’ service. Coltart lived
on West Third street. The exact ad-
dress could not be learned. Accord-
ing to officials, Sanders lives at 710
Center street. A sister of Coltart
was notified of the accident last
night. Coroner S. P. Vaughter said
last night that he would view the
bodies this morning.
Mrs. J. T. Gibson and J. C. Graves
who live near the men were traveling
south, toward Pine Bluff, at an ex-
cessive rate of speed. Aftfr passing
the church at the curve they came
down the hill and when they reach-
ed the cemetery the car suddenly
darted out to the right of the road
This was to miss the holes in the
road. When the car swung to the
right, it left the road before the
driver could regain control. It then
crashed into the concrete abuttment
of a bridge, causing it to turn over
twice. The car landed on its wheels.
As it turned up the second time, the
men were lying on the ground.

the running board, probably expect-
ing an accident. As the car turned
for the first time Sanders was thrown
clear of the car. A passing automo-
bile brought Sanders to the city, and
they drove to the establishment of
P. H. Ruebel & Co., 116 East Sixth

about the wreck. A Reubel ambu-
lance sped toward the wreck, arriv-

An inquest conducted shortly after
the killing by W. S. Johnson,' Jus-
tice of the Peace, exhonerated Mr.
Ross.
Mr. Ross says he came upon Davis
and commanded him to throw up his
hands. Instead, he says, Davis caught
at his arm evidently attempting to
take his gun from him, and then grab-
bed him by the throat. Davis was
shot three times and died at once.—
