HOO HOO PASSES
 ATLANTA BID BY
Lumbermen's Convention Wants to Meet Next Year In City Without
 Prohibition.

'Hoo-Hoos are not opposed to water, but they prefer to judge what they shall do with It," was the comment of one of the lumbermen who attended the Hoo- Hoos convention at the Isleworth. which adjourned yesterday. It is an organiza- ton of lumber dealers, says the Atlantic City Review
 'srhe Hoo Hoos recognize the benefits which flow from the spring, but they like to have something to say about the suds which come from the spiggots," continued the speaker.
 Therefore when Atlanta, Ga, lumber men talked to their fellow lumbermen in the convention here about the beauty of southern women, of the southern hos pitality which awaited them If they would visit Atlanta, the Hoo-Hoos quietly. firmly and decisively replied: None for us; it's the water wagon we are scared about In Atlanta. See what Georgia has done, deprived it's citizens of the analen- able right to have something else to re- fresh themselves with besides water and fresh milk. None for tho lumbermen. We go to Chicago, who will take up with open arms and open bars That vas the way the Hoo-Hoos looked at the in- vitation from the two places. That is why Atlanta did not get the convention. Atlantic City is just the right sort Of place. They offered us the ocean and then gave us the latch key, on Sunday. Fine. We are coming again."

CLEAN BOY MIXES
 WITH DIRTY BOY
A DOG, GRANDMOTHER AND FAT MAN ADD PlCTURESQUENESS TO FIGHT ON THIRD AVENUE-ARE FINALLY FRIED APART.

One dirty boy, one clean boy and stout pacemaker brushed the dirt off part of Third avenues pavement yesterday afternoon. almost frightening the life out of a small, black terrior and mild look. ing grandmother while doing so.
 The clean boy was walking along with the gray-haired lady while the small dog trotted along beside him, attached to a small chain which the boy held in his hand The dirty boy was walking down the street in the opposite direction, and began grinning as soon as he spotted the clean boys pretty attire As he passed them he doubled up with laughter and made some kind of remark to the clean boy.
 But while the clean boy looked dainty and delicate, he was imbued with Buster Brown principles, for he immediately for sock the ladys hand and went for the dirty boy, still holding the dogs chain Both boys clinched and after few sec onds went sprawllng on the ground. Dur ing the struggle the dog was jerked about and the fall sent him flying through the air to land on top of the boys. Then dog and boys widowed on the ground, the dog finally getting loose and tearing out down the street as fast as his legs could work and letting out a soprano scream all the while.
 The stout man came up just as the dog left and attempted to separate the two combatants. The result of his peaceful efforts was that he tripped over one boys leg and In attempting to balance himself tumbled to the ground on top of the clean boy. He managed to get up and succeeded In separating them this time, holding one by each hand. Both boys wanted to continue the fight, but after a few words he persuaded the once clean boy to go along with his grand mother, who had become almost hysterical by this time. The always dirty boy, however was still full of fight and 1t was necessary for the stout man to keep a grip on him until grandmother and Bus ter Brown had disappeared around the Title Guarantee corner.
