 On Friday night, two young gentle men out for pleasure ride in the soft and entrancing moonlight mistook the elevated pathway leading from our great t-for-railroad- men, viz., the Warner House, for the nearest and best road to Falls Village, that place so enjoyable to pleasure seekers. They accordingly started for the Falls by this route. After they had driven across the foot crossing and had nearly tipped over in crossing the slant to the depot platform, they proceeded down the track for little distance, but the horse not being printer and therefore not used to walking the ties, got dis gusted and lay down. At this juncture the young men became aware that they were driving on the railroad track and hastened to get the beast upon his legs and off of the track. Their profanity attracted the attention of two of the Warner House connections and they went over to assist them. One of the gents from the hotel advised the young men to hurry up as train was coming. With little quick work and some scripture language the outfit was once more on the right road and the young men informed as to their journey. Now that everything was all right thanks and cigars were offered and the team started. As they passed over the hill by Prof Harvey's we heard prolonged whoo-p on the still night air and con- cluded that the young men were out for good time and bound to have it.
