A." Breenberg tried to intercept the
college man and landed in the gutter
Harmon dashed into a barber shop,
screaming and gesticulating. The Gus
toners jumped from the chairs, some
their necks, and took refuge in the
rear of the place Harmon took pos
session of the place and almost
wrecked it,
Breenberg then appeared and was
knocked through the doorway By one
blow from the mans fist. The police
man raped for assistance and three
other policemen answered the sum-
mons. All four made a concerted rush
on Harmon, who met them with fists
that seemed to fly in all directions at
once, as did the four policemen. They
called the half-shaven customers to
their aid. Seven men seized Harmon,
but for while he handled them with
apparent ease.
The policemen hung on, and finally
overpowered Harmon. They got him
to the floor and sat on him, as did the
customers. DR.. Jackson, who is him
self no mollycoddle, was called from
Bellevue hospital. When he appeared
the policemen let Harmon up.
He attacked DR.. Jackson, hurting
him across the barber shop. Then the
policemen threw the football player
and with a rope tied his legs and
arms. DR.. Jackson put him in the
ambulance. Four policemen sat on
himon the way to the hospital. There he
again became violent, and for the
third time recourse was had to the
strait-jacket, but not before Han
non had kicked over a dozen cots and
used his fists on the policemen and
hospital attendants. He was finally
roped and thrown like steer and
tied
DR.. Jackson and the other physi-
clans said there was no doubt young
Harmon had been given chloral, enough
probably to have rendered an average
man unconscious. They said lannon's
great strength had Offset the effects
or the drug and had simply rendered
him temporarily insane.

Cincinnati. The fire laddies of En-
CINE Company 5 and Hooks are as
tonished at Peete street. They had
such an embarrassing time there.
Peete street is a thoroughfare that
opens in diagonal, downward d.
rection from rise in the Upper Main
street hill and loses itself in square
or so, amid the tumble and criss-cross
of side streets at this point. 1t is a
rare thing that the thoroughfare is
stirred out of its placid retiring de-
meanor. The street is too steep for
ordinary travel. The police don't re-

Woman GuIps a Snake.

Lansdale, Pa.-For several years
Mrs. Kate Fellman of this place has
been suffering from a supposed in
durable disease, and her case has puz-
zled several physicians. A few days
ago Mrs. Fellman was. seized with a
fit of coughing and elected writhing
object which was found to be snake.
DR.. T.. L. Cope, her attending physf-
clan, took the reptile to Philadelphia,
where it was declared by professional
men to be water snake.
The reptile was about seven inches
long and lived but few minutes. Mrs.
Fellman says that about five years
ago she lived in a place where she
drank water from a spring. and thinks
that she must have swallowed It az
that time.

VAULT IS AUCTIoNED;
HELD OWNER BODY

GREENBURG, Pa, July 23.-The
spectacle Of a vault, wherein lay the
owners dead body. being disposed of
at a forced public sale. was witnessed
yesterday at the old Unity cemetery.
The sale was necessitated by the in
sistence of creditors of the owner,
once g wealthy landlord Of Latrobe,
Pa. The creditors demanded that the
cemetery's property be sold and the
proceeds divided.
James Kenan. of Greensburg, the
authorized referee in bankruptcy, A.
nally directed that the sale be held.
The auctioneer and others urged that
the sale be held outside the city of
the dead, but II was decided that no
course was open for the auctioneer but
to cry the sale in the plot itself.
The bidding was started at $3.50.
Others raised II to 5000. Then from
the crowd emerged an old woman
whose only daughter and grandson
lay in the vault. In a broken voice
she bid $605. A few more bids each
raising the figure IS were offered by
her and each was met by the other
bidders With an agonized glance at
the receptacle Of her dead, she turn
ed and left the cemetery.
The vault was finally sold to ]. j.
Peppary for $745. Notice was promptly
given on the part of the owner that
the sale would be contested.

He is James Alfriend. He was present
