HORSE TRIED TO DESTROY AN AUTO.

u
Carl Never, of Fort WAYNE, Ind.
was on his way to Blue Lake, ant
was accompanied by a friend in al
automobile. Near Churusbusco they
met two farmers in q blackboard
Their horse seemed to be badly
frightened, and the machine was
stopped and the farmers told to &c
ahead. Instead they expressed con.
fidence in their ability to manage
the animal and invited the occupants
of the automobile to migrate to a
warmer climate.
Meyer moved his machiue eau
tiously forward, and as he came
abreast of the horse it plunged and
kicked until it was free from the
harness, and then deliberately turn
ed and kicked viciously at the ma
chine, which was started ahead, the
horse following and turning frequent
ly to kick. Finally the horse ran
ahead and kicked the headlight off,
doing serious damage to the front of
the machine.S Amused and also
frightened by the queer antics of the
horse, the occupants of the auto drove
it past and kept out of the way of
the thoroughly aroused equine, which
followed for several miles, evidently
bent on the complete destruction CT
the machine

the infection of the mosquitoes with
disease that will kill them off will
cost little and that the city can pro-

unloading the burden on the proper

A New JERSEY ROMANCE

]
At first surprised, North Vineland,
N. j., is now awhirl with jollifica-
tion over the wedding of two of its
most aged townsfolk, James Mason,
70, and Mrs. Deborah j. Bigelow, 76.
Each has grandchildren The bride
is great grand mother. Hardly
anybody dreamed that the aged
couple were to get married except
their grandchildren, who raised a
vigorous protest. But the other night
at the residence of Rev. A. Mat
thews, of Vineland, they were quietly
married. When they returned home
and confessed what they had done,
their relatives wisely made the best
of the situation by granting forgive
ness and arranging for an elaborate
reception the MCKNIGHT. The whole
village attended. The bride, BEAM
ing with smiles, was attired in white
organdie. trimmed with lace, and she
held in her hands an immense bou-
quet of bride roses. The bridegroom
was dressed in black Prince Albert
coat, black trousers, patent leather
shoes, white cravat and II silk hat
of rather ancient style. Next night
the bridal couple were serenaded by
calithumpain band of old men of
the village. Almost every man in
the crowd was a grandfather.

BURIED WEARING A RED Ne,

BURIED WEARING A RED NECKTIE,
J. Howard Jacobs, one of the lead
ing criminal lawyers of eastern Penn
sylvania, who died at Reading a short
time ago, was buried wearing a red
necktie. Many visitors to the house
of the dead lawyer inquired after the
funeral why light cOlOred business
suit and a scarlet neck scarf were
used instead of shroud. A near
friend of the family explained as
follows:
Jacobs was best known to all the
people wearing light-colored suit
and red tie. For this reason it was
deemed best to bury him in that at
tire, rather than in a shroud that
makes dead men look so very un-
natural.
Jacobs started this fad a dozen
years ago, just after he had won an
important case in court. The evil
dence and the charge of the court
seemed against him, yet he uneX-
pectedly secured verdict. During
the long trial he wore a red tie for
the first time in court. After the
verdict one of the opposing lawyers
said:
"'Jacobs, that tie of yours hoodoo-
ed the jury. You had better keep ii
up in all your important cases.
"The lawyer took this advise and
ever afterward when in murder
case or any other important trial
wore a flaring red tie. He never lost
case when wearing a red tie, and
as he has now gone to a higher court
we all hope that with his red tie on,
he will not lose his case there.n
