And they Called Him Crazy!

The trustees of the insane asylum at
Kankakee were making tour of in
spection and walking through the
grounds when they came upon a party
of workrren who were repairing a
wall. One of the harmless patients,
appearing to be assisting in the work,
was pushing a wheelbarrow along up
side down.
"My friend" said kind-hearted
trustee, gently, you should turn your
wheelbarrow over"
mot on your life," replied the pa
tient. 81 turned it over yester day and
they put bricks in it."

The debate in the old school house

Feminine Preferences.

It is doubtful whether any woman
to-day would be particularly elated at
hearing herself vaguely labeled as
charming" She prefers to be known
instead as "a good sort" The former
to her mind is an Elusive term, signi-
flying the approval Of elderly rela
tons, while the latter implies affec-
tionate liberation on the part OF the
eligible male-Ladies' Field.

D.. Busehbaum and Negro janiior Had
Trouble this Manning

trouble this Morning
"It is the courts opinion that this
was a mere broomstick fight and will
treat you just like you were both
white men. You are fined So and
costs each.o
This was the opinion handed down
and the sentence imposed BY Judge
Grigsby in a case in police court this
morning, wherein Dr.. Buschbaum
and Bud Spencer, the negro janitor
in the Ismert building, were defend
ants.
According to the story as related
in court, DR.. Buschbaum requested
the janitOr to sweep some trash away
from his office door and Bud refused,
saying, mind your own business.
Bud went to closet and the doctor
followed him with a broom in his
hand, still insisting upon him doing
the sweeping. He took hold the ne
gro's arm and the latter said, Don't
touch me, I'm a better man than you
are" and other words. Here the
broomstick play began and it was un-
certain who struck the first blow or
whether either Of the parties was hit,
the stories being conflicting. DR..
East, however, who tried to play the
part Of peacemaker, somehow got a
mashed finger in the operation. DIR.
East heard the negro say, Il will
kill you" Bud claims that he said
70 the doctor, go away, l don't want
to hurt Yen, I'm better man than
you are
Attorney Richardson and Joe Wells
were also witnesses to the affair.
Richardson said the play moved on
50 rapidly that he could scarcely tell
what was happening.
