Result of Three Pints
A lew specialties that we re not
down on the bills were put on be-
fore a small but interested audience
in the downtown district last Fri-
day evening by a farmer who lives
a few miles west of town. A
■quantity of red-eye, said to have
been about three pints, taken in-
ternally. wa« responsible foi the
program, which began at the elec-
tric light plant, where he first ap-
peared and requested a lantern to
look for his hat, which he had lost
in a threshing machine near the
plant, he said. When he return
ed he wa-ndered pro,lnd for awhile
through the machinery, apparent-
ly driving a drove of pigs v/ith the
blow pipe from the thresher, into
-which he -finally drove the swine
and announced his intentions of
"taking them home with him. The
glowing coals on top of the ash
pile next attracted his attention
and he produced some raw meat I
from a paper and proceeded to
cook a steak on the coals. After
sampling the meat, he decided that
it was too slow a fire and tried to
build it up with wet excelsior.
When this proved a failure he de
cided that what he wanted was a
-drink of water. When it was not
forthcoming on the instant, he
•started to get it himself from a
tank that he saw up near the roof,
•and he started up a two-inch pipe
■with the nightwatch hanging to
one leg and the electrician to the
•other. Both gave their entire
peimission, however, when they
found themselves being drawn
Ifroin the ground and he soon
j reached the tank, but in trying to
get to the water he lost his hold
and fell to the top of the lurnance,
tiiking on his head and shoulders
so hard that some of the plates
were jarred loose. He was finally
induced to descend and coaxed
out of the building, where after
several hundred yard dashes had
b en indulged in, he was finally
trussed up by Marshal Leddy and
Nightwatch Hannon and a few
bystanders and toted t . the hold-
over, where he was refrigerated
the remainder of the night and
fined and sent home the following
■morning by the justice.

The local authorities made a
vain seatch Sunday evening for a
crazy woman out we^t of town.
The woman crossed several fields
in the Voss neighborhood, it is
said, late in the afternoon, but
when the officers arrived on the
scene about dark they were un-
able to locate her and the chase
was given up after a vain search
ot several hours.
