THE INK STAND
QUIT ITS JOB
PECULIAR ACCIDENT IN THE
OFFICE OF THE ACTING GOV
ERNOR THIS MORNING.

A catastrophe of a minor variety oc-
CURED this morning in the office of Act
ing Governor was talking business with
one of the heavy men of the communi-
ty, a large glass ink-stand on his desk
suddenly spit in half with a noise like a
pistol shot and ink was scattered all
over the table. Oddly enough this hap
pened just before Miss Kelley, the re-
firing chief clerk who has held office
for ten years, handed over her keys to
her successor.
Opinion in the Capitol building is di-
vided as to whether the ink-stand de-
committed suicide on account
of the chief clerks departure, whether
the Acting Governor caused the trouble
by the passage of some brilliant With
cism, or whether a change in the at
mosphere had anything to do with it.
