A mischievous prank of Dame Ru'
NOR made things rather unpleasant
over Saturday and Sunday for num-
Der of local people whose friends
were at Cedar Point. having gone
there on the excursion fthe Marior
Steam Shovel Company. Very grue-
some reports were circulated here
Saturday evening and 1t was reared
for a time that number of local
people had met with injury. The re-
ports as they were circulated how
ever, are shown to bear no truth in
them and the success of the annual
excursion Saturday was not in any
way marrcd by serious accidents.
Some person had the ingenuity TO
invent a story stating that two Marion
people had been drowned while In
bathing I'm the lake and the report
scattered like wildfre here, with the
result that many people were decided
ly worried over the matter. AT the
local Pennsylvania railroad offices
the employees were well night driven
to distraction Saturday afternoon and
evening. Calls were sent in repeat
edly and many of the employees final
ly refused to answer them. No Off
cial information of any disaster was
heard here and those who went on the
excursion report that everything was
carried out in good fashion and a very
enjoyable time was had. The weather
was ideal and a splendid outing was
enjoyed.
Some little excitement was caused
at the Point Saturday, and 1t is
thought that the rumor originated
three, when one of the little boys who
was enjoying the day at the shore in
an attempt to board a boat lost his
hold and fell into the water No
sooner had he fallen than one of the
men who was going past near by In
o canoe came near and rescued the
lad. Although the incident was
scarcely worth mention 1t is belived
that the gruesome rumors gained
ground from this Incident.
While the first excursion train was
making its way northward, Saturday
morning, 1t struck handcar in
charge of James Shay of this city.
Shay and an Italian who were on
the car at the time were enroute
to get the car off the track i'm time
with the result that IT was struck by
the oncoming excursion train. This
occurred near Bucyrus. The broken
car was brought. to this city this
morning on\a truck. The workmen
were not injured.
At Bucyrus one of the mer
in the first excursion train be.
came too happy and at tha
place he was taken frCm the train
and hauled to the police station in a
hack. The trainmen carried him
to the depot at Bucyrus and at that
place patrolman had him taken to
headquarters. iAt the station he con-
tinued to be drunk all day Saturday
and no hearing was given him so that
his name could not be learned. He
was also anxious to get back home
but had no. means of getting out o
Jail ard was too drunk tpr hearing
A man from owens Station, Mich.
ael Flynn, was also arrested at Buc-
yus and arraigned. The number OF
people, who were drunk on the excur-
sion trains however, were very few
and all who were at all inclined to be
nervous were taken from the train al
Bucyrus.
At the Point, the local excur.
sionists had a very enjoyable time
and no accidents of any importance
tended toward marring the pleasure
of the day.
