A TRUE TALE
Told By A Truthful Man In A Truthful
Manner.

The inhabitants of Eastport were
really alarmed the other night by a
bold holdup. The clerk at the Eastport
Pharmacy had shut of his fizz tanks
and started home. Ii was about 80
| and as he walked out Bay Ridge Ave
nue. two figures suddenly appeared. and
demanded his watch and money, on the
| point OF instant death Just here some
thing happened. Not liking their man
ner the clerk let go with his strong
right, and brought up against something
hard. Immediately the object struck.
| arose in the air and assumed the APP
pearance of streak of fire shooting
| across the Heavens. Belated pedes-
trians on the bridge stood IN awe, and
a few fell TO their knees. declaring the
world was coming TO an end. The creek
was Int up as thought it were MONDAY,
but with a peculiar blue tint. Some
residents of Murray Hill also became
anxious when they saw the phenomena.
From Bay Ridge Avenue it could be
seen that the top of the trees were
scorched, SO hot was the trail the fast
flying object left behind. Arcoss
the Assistant Postmaster's shore on
Spa creek its path was marked by a
stretch of burnt vegetation. The wa
tiers of the creek seemed like unto
boiling spring, and consternation.seized
the companion of the highwayman and
the clerk.
The trail was easily followed and in
the lot where the circus was held they
found a hole about 40 feet long and 5
feet wide that had been burnt by the
supposed aerolite. At the end they
found the bold highwayman, in a sad
condition. His clothes were charred his
head was bald, his eyebrows gone, and
every tooth in his head loose, and his
face blistered. After using his know
ledge of first aid to injure, the clerk
soon brought him from the land of Nod.
and he was heard mummering that he
heard sweet music and would take the
next dan &c. 1t was then exclaimed that it
was joke. Now the three are trying
to squire who the joke is on.

LAST DAY OF THE SHOW

Colt Association Comes To A Success
full Close.

With live fox run as one of the
features the eleventh annual horse
show of the West River Colt Show As
ISOLATION was brought to a successful
close on the Associations track at
Mr.. Graham Elzey's farm yesterday
afternoon. Although rain fell during
the afternoon, the attendance yester-
day was equal to the greatest during
the annual show last year.
While Mr.. Owen Faust's Miss Clean
captured another prize in the combi-
nation horse class, and this Annapoli-
tan and Mr.. W. Ii Rullman, of Annap-
oils, won a number of prizes during..the
show, the best individual record was
made by Mr.. Henry A. Brehm, of Bal
timore, who won eight blues and one
red in the nine classes he showed.
The Murrays and Bowdoins, from
Elkridge, also made big records, but
large proportion of prizes went to
Anne Arundel and Calvert county
horses. During the afternoon live
fox was released, but the small pack
of hounds soon caught him as he was
running toward big swamp.
There was not hitch during the
whole exhibition and the improvement
in the horses shown was pronounced.
The work of Judges Smead, of New
York, and Dorsey Williams, of How
ard county, was highly commended.

when he is young, consider that he

knowledge for his support when his
powers of acting shall forsake him;

rigor on faults which experience only
can correct.-Dr. Johnson.
