driving. about 10 o’clock last night,
and went to sleep after cautioning

The truck went along merrily till it
came to the hill, and then, because of
faulty break bands, tore down the in-
cline and compelled the helper to run
into the stone wall. The wall was rip~
ped to pieces. but the truck, a large
transport. only suffered broken
springs. Hanson. who was in charge
of the truck, was arrested and brought
to the police station, where'he has
