SWELL LEAVES COAT TAILS
WEDGED IN BUGGY SPRING
PASADENAN FAILS TO SEE HU-
NOR OF 1T
Crowds at Fourth and Main Treated
to a Rich Bit of Funmaking In
voIving Man With SwaIIowtail
Coat

A sprig, evidently from the nobility
in Pasadena, dressed in evening clothes,
became attached to the springs of a
buggy on South Main street, near the
Westminster hotel, last night while he
was making his way across that thor
oughfare.
Unceremoniously and much to the
young mans discomfort he was
dragged down the street for a distance
of several feet before the anchorage
system broke it's hold upon his coat
tails.
While the crowds collected on the
corner of Fourth and Main streets in
anticipation of the electrical parade
the young man attempted to pilot two
women companions across Main street.
SetVeral young women, probaly resi-
dents in the district surrounded by
jackson, San Pedro and Also streets,
gave the coat tails envious pulls, de-
the swallow tail and his fair compan-
ions.
At first he was inclined to share the
joke with the young women and
laughed good naturedly. But in passing
across the street one of the feminine
tormentors managed to fasten one of
the coat tails to the rear spring of a
small buggy.
AS the crowd gave way the young
man was jerked from his companions
and dragged several feet before he sue
ceeded in loosening the vise-like grip
of the spring.
When he was again free there was
vengeance in his eyes and things might
have been bad for the young torment
ors had they not vanished.

The General Assembly
Fails to Agree
Rv Associated Presa.

Rv Associated Press.
DIES MONIES, Ia, May 22.-The
much talked about debate upon the
adoption Of the book of forms and
services, recommended by a special
committee of the Presbyterian general
assembly, materialized late this after
noon, the debate continuing for two
hours.
No conclusion was reached and fur
ther discussion is to be made a spe-
cial order at later session. Not in
many years has an assembly been so
stirred as 1t was today over this issue;
and the most intense feeling was shown
during the debate Rev. DIR. Robert
Johnstone of Montreal waved a copy
of the book in the air as he spoke
and declared that at smells of priest
craft"
The request was made by the mod
orator that all applause be discon-
tlnued, but when Dr. Johnstone.
stretching himself to his full six feet
four inches, waving his hand frantical-
ly, declared that the book smelled of
priestcraft, applause came out in a
tremendous roar.
Moderator Van Dyke, chairman Of
the committee, opened with a witty al
fusion to the psalm Of David. which.
he said, he had repeated for what we
are to receive.
Two Extreme Opinions
There seems to be two extreme opin-
ions, he said. Some want it put out
and strangled underfoot; others want
1t adopted. Your committee stands
where the two forces meet.
He then took I'm the hooIr apd nv
planned its adaptabiity to the service
lie said that the committee had only
carried out the Instructions of the
general assembly.
Dr. William f. McCauley of Cincin-
natl was the principal speaker for the
opposition. He declared that the dues-
tlon was the most important that will
come before the assembly, He based
his assertions principally on the ground
that the authorization by the general
assembly would be Interpreted by the
churches everywhere that the assem-
bly, wished its adoption, although it was
not mandatory. He said that such an
authorization might prevent the union
with the Cumberland church.
Resolution Referred to Clerk
Mr.. McCauley declared it inexpedient
to make any recommended ton, and
that in case any changes in the book
are hereafter issued they shall omit
any statement Of authorizat tion by the
general assembly. This resolution was
referred to the clerk.
Today's sessions of the general as
sembly were devoted largely to home
missions and in adopting the report of
the home missions board the assembly
voted that $1,0OOOOO be set aside for
the work next year, an increase of
100000. The assembly gave a vote of
Endorsement to the Platt bill in the
United States senate for the suppress
sion of polygamy.
Clerk Roberts of the Presbyterian
general assembly interrupted tonight's
popular home mission platform meet
ing with the announcement of the dis
solution of the injunction proceedings
against the union with the Cumberland
Presbyterians.
The news was received with tremen-
dous applause.
