HAMMOND HORSE
CRASHES INTO SHOP
Customers in Barber Shop
Scatter Helter Shelter
This Morning.

a blind horse belonging to the Ham
mond city street cleaning department
and hitched TO a street cleaning de-
partment wagon in front of Nick En-
merling's undertaking establishment
ran away a 10 o'clock this morning
and plunged into a 5000 plate glas win
dow in Lochiel Simpsons barber shop
on Sibley street.
The horse was not going very fast
but the force of the impact against the
window was sufficient to shatter the
glass and sent the BARRIERS in the shop
scurrying to places OF safety
Bill Kane was sitting near the door
in the shop at the time the accident
happend. He saw the horse coming
toward the window and shouted a
the cigar counter.
Both did hop skip and jump stunts
that would do credit to college ath-
lete in getting out of the way OF the
shower of glass that fell
Horse Badly Hurt.
The horse butted its head through
the glass and for a time it looked
as though he would try to come right
through the window. But 1t finally
withdrew its head and started off down
the street. 1t was caught by a by
stander.
The horse received a bad cash over
the head as a result of the accident
and was taken to DR.. Ebright's veter-
mary hospital where Il was discovered
that the cuts were not serious.
The wagon TO which the horse was
hitched belonged to the street clean
ing department and contained a trunk
The horse and wagon had evidently
been pressed into service to do little
express business. The chances are that
the street cleaning department did no,
pick up a new trunk in the alleys about
town.

COMETS TIME
TABLE TONIGHT

Sun sets. 7-12 o'clock.
Comet sets. 1885.
Comet visible from dark until
1915.
During the time the comet is
visible the moon will be in partial
eclipse, the comet coming between
it and the sun. In the subdued
moonlight. Il the sky is clear, the
comet will be unusually brilliant.
While the tail Of Halley's comet
may have been detached about the
time the comet sped by the earth.
it is entirely possible the append
age remains intact and will be
visible from this region tonight if
weather conditions are favorable.
This is the theory Of the Rev Father
Daniel ]. McHugh, professor of
astronomy at De Paul university.
If the sky is clear the comet may
be seen from dark until 1915 o'clock
tonight. The head will set at 1926

children hurried out of the opera house
after seeing the laughable antics of
Buster Brown and Tige, they partici-

by no less a parsonage than Buster

Nothing Farther From Truth.
Nothing is farther from the truth

the other hand there was absolute har-

hole about eight by twelve inches

Gaeadig Gigadab.

There was quaint old man in Man.
chester. England. who for many years
went by the unique name of Gagadig
Gigadab. His original name was John
Smith. and for many years he brooded
over the possibilities of mistaken iden-
tity involved in 1t. The name figured
frequently in criminal records, and he
became abnormally apprehensive lest
he might be confused with some of
the bad John Smiths. At last what he
feared SO much actually happened.
One morning the papers reported the
arrest of an accountant in bank for
embezzlement. and through some blum
der of the reporter the identity of the
embezzler was confused with the sub
ject of this article. who was also a
bank accountant. Then and there ne
determined to assume name like
unto no other ever borne by mortal
man. And in Gagadig Gigadab most
people will agree that he succeeded in
so doing.-New York Tribune.

LEGALLY Better of.

The creditors of the ancient king
had become so unpleasantly insistent
that he resolved to put them where
they could trouble him no more. So
he invited them to great banquet,
and when they had Toasted and drunk
of his prepared wine he instructed his
servants to convey them to his deepest
dungeons. And the next morning
when he went down to learn whether
his servants had done his bidding his
creditors raised their voices and en-
treated to be set free. But he remon-
strated with them. saying:
"My friends. you have no just cause
for complaint. Are you not better off
in the eye of the law than ever be-
fore? Any lawyer will tell you that
secured creditor has an exceptional
cinch." Then he left them and went
on his gladstone way. happy in the
knowledge that he could at last go
through his dominions without being
dunned.- Chicago News.
