Rushville, Ind, Nov. 17.-This town
has set a pace in different way. 1t
has anything the Great White Way
can produce, skinned a city block. The
veriest Salome dancer would blush
with shame, but it was jolly good sport
for the street loafers and many a neck
was stretched out of plumb in the at
tempt to see it all. Two young men
and two young women were drunk
Saturday night and decided upon a
novel stunt. The girls seated them
selves on the sidewalk and their male
companions, taking them by the an
kles, dragged them about There
was a great deal of hilarity and no
body hurt until the town marshal was
collided with. Then one of the men
became obstreperous and the marshal
laid him on the walk for more than
the count. The men and one girl
were fined for drunkenness. The 9TH
er girl gave an exhibition of the rein
deer stunt and has not been located
since. The marshal did not count in
running race.
