WOOL TRUCK OVERTURNS.—A truck, heavily laden with wool, overturned on the Evans Pass highway, near the former barracks site, yesterday afternoon. No-one was hurt. The truck was taking a bend where the road is “saucered," and its top-weight caused it to topple over. The wool and the truck were held by the fence. The truck was righted by a breakdown truck.
