Thirteen Hack Drivers Unite IN q
MysterIOus Procession.

Men whose business or pleasure called
them out along the downtown streets dur
ing the small hours OF Wednesday morn
ing saw q strange and unusual sight in
the shape Of long string Of hacks driving
al a rapid pace. What Is it?" was ask
ed ON all sides, as the procession moved
from block to block and street to street.
Various guesses were made but all were
wide OF the mark The procession origi-
mated In a Josh among the hackmen
AS the horses stood stamping their feet at
their usual stands along Second avenue.
there was an unusual Iul I'm business. IL
was a long time between calls. Suddenly
an observant driver counted the vehicles
and called out:
Say. fellows, no wonder we're not get
ting any business there are just thirteen
OF u.s.
This announcement sent thrill Of horror
down the whole line. Promptly the plan
WAS made up to drive around block or
two TO Danish the hoodoo. So while call
the world wondered" the procession was
formed and made a circuit down Cherry
street. along First avenue. below Yesler
way and back.
Whether the success was due to CONNER
c!ai or spis.tuaI!stic causes at any rate
the hsckmen say that within a few min
utes after they had broken the evil spell
six OF them had calls.
