TEAM WITH A RECORD
DUPLICATE ACT

Houlder Hudgins and G. G. Seley
paid a visit to Hunter on Tuesday.
They drove the same team that did
the stunt" for Mr.. and Mrs. James
Gaskill last summer, when they ran
away, dumping Mr.. Gaskill to the
bosom of mother earth and breaking
Mrs. Gaskill's arm. The team is al
ways ready to take a chance in a run
away. Messr. Hudgins and Seley
were driving along the road, talking
about the coming city election, when
they came to babbling brook, and
as the horses showed signs of thirst
Mr.. Seley alighted to let down the
checks of the horses that they might
refresh themselve, Mr.. Hudgins re-
naming in the buggy. A band of
sheep grazing on the hillside above
them began bleating frightening the
team. The animals made a sudden
plunge for liberty, knocking Seley
Into a cooked hat" Mr.. Hudgins
tried his best TO stay with the horses,
and pointed them up the hillside.
Before going very far a gully was
reached and the team promised to
take fall" out of Mr.. Hudgins, but
he ducked and sidestepped, landing
on MS nedu. Alter ONefluTHlnS tne
buggy and making kindling wood of
the seat and top, breaking both sin
gletrees and making shoestring of the
harness, the horses finally became en-
tangled in the "hawser" and rounded
themselves up. Hudgins and Seley
pulled themselves together, and each
took solemn vow never again to
monkey" with the "Gaskill horses. F."
The gentlemen returned to town just
as Old Sol was hiding his face in the
west. Mr.. Hudgins says he is through
acting the part of bronco buster.
He turned a little grey during his
thrilling experience, but beyond that
he sis as good as new" The buggy
wreck is another story

ORIGIN OF THE NAME GOTHAM
First Applied to New York City
BY Irving in ''Salmagundi.'

This name Gotham was first APP
piled to the city of Manhattan in
book of humorous sketches called
'Salmagundi, written about 1907 by
Washington Irving in collaboration
with his brother Peter and the poet
Paulding. 1t was evidently intended
to suggest that the people of New
York made undue pretensions to wis
dom, says Housekeeper, and that
there were both satire and wit in the
suggestion is shown by the story of
the original Gothamites.
Gotham was parish in Noting
hamshire, England. The old story
tells how King John wished to pass
through the parish. The people
there, fancying that the passage of
the king over a route made it pub
lie road decided to prevent the transit
by all pretending to be crazy.
Therefore, when the king and his
party arrived they found everyone of
the inhabitants employed in some pc
culiarly foolish task. Thus, a group
We're joining hands around thorn
bush to keep a cuckoo from getting
away; some were trying to drown an
eel, others dripping water with a
sieve, and SO on.
When the king saw these perform
ances he swore at the people for a
pack of idiots, and, turning, departed
with all his retinue. The Gothamites
were delighted with the success OF
their scheme for turning aside the
king, regarding it as superlatively
clever.
After this Gotham came to have
the reputation of being sort of
headquarters for conceited fools. In
the time of Henry VIII a book en-
titled 1.-The Merry Tales of the Mad
Men of Gotham" was published.
Among these was the story of 1.-THE
Three Wise Men of Gotham" one of
whose exploits was to go to sea in a
bowl

Heavy Hail storm.

Ely and vicinity was visited with
one of the severest rain and hail
storms experienced here for several
years yesterday afternoon.
The day was as fine as could be de-
sired up to about noon, when heavy
clouds came up in the west. which in
a very short time presented the city
with hail stones and rain galore.
OF course the size of the stones
vary considerably, according to the
person that is telling the tale. We
heard 1t reported that some were as
large as goose eggs, but will not
vouch for the authenticity of the re-
port.
