COMEDIAN LOST A BET.


George C. Boniface, jr., a well-known
comedian happened to be passing through
the city a few days ago and while here he
met an old acquaintance. David NJ. Bright,
shrewd young New Yorker. Bright and
BOniface met in one of the hotels and
whiled away an hour so in happy rem
iniscence. During the talk the topic
turned to hygiene, and Boniface told how
he had found appetizer in swallowing
a raw egg or two before breakfast. Then
they got up bet Bright's contention was
that Boniface could not take two raw eggs
on an empty stomach. why. that's an
easy thing" declared the actor. its just
like finding money.
The men went into a cafe to decide the
wager. Boniface asked for an egg, and
breaking the shell, swallowed the contents
That's fine" he remarked, I'll take
another" The second egg was handed him
and he quickly swallowed that You
lose. you lose" shouted the crowd TO
Bright, and Boniface looked triumphant
But his triumph was short lived.
'I'u prove TO you that L do not lose -
said Bright. when Boniface swallowed
the first egg he then had something in his
stomach. Consequently he did not swallow
both eggs on an empty stomach" Boniface

TOM HEDIAN A HERO.
The Part He Played in Getting a Man
Out of the Water.

Tom Hedian played the role of a hero
yesterday in saving Guy Earle, a young
travelling man from Chicago, from drown
ing in Broad Ripple Earle and Hedian
and a number of others went out to the
Ripple early yesterday afternoon to skate.
Below the park, where Kingan & Co have
their ice houses, is a large part of the
ice which has lately been cut and in the
past few days has not acquired the thick
ness of the surrounding ice. While Hedian
and the remainder of the party contented
themselves by skating on the ice opposite
the park nearly all afternoon, Earle be-
came detached from the regular crow
and thought he would try the ice farther
west. He was not acquainted with the
situation, and before he had gone very
far the thin ice cracked and he fell into
the chilly waters of the river. Hedian
at once saw the plight OF his companion
and by clever presence of mind crawled
slowly out to Earle and held him. Hedian
was in turn held by his foot by a friend
Hedian then called for one of the crowd to
get a small duck boat from the Aquatic
Clubs boathouse. When this was brought
the men soon had Earle dragged out of
the wafer. They then took him TO the
boathouse, where they dried his clothes.
