WILLIE LASSOED AN AUTO
Failed to Throw and Brand It in
Cowboy Style.

When Willie Slayle, ten years old Of No.
2l97 Fifth avenue, lassoed an auto truck
in front Of his home yesterday lie brought
Wild West methods right up 10 date. Will
lie and several companions we're playing
Indian. and around young Slayle's waist
was tied q clothcsline. when along came
a big auto truck. driven by Xavier Schmidt
OF No. 4i East 18th street.
Wllie's trusty arm let fly the rope at the
truck, and II struck the crank lever. The
next thing Willie knew no was sliding along
the ground after the truck, his compan-
ions yelling TO the driver to stop the car
Schmidt brought the truck TO halt, got
of and cut the rope. Apparently the only
thing that suffered was Willic's clothes.
and these were badly damaged. Willie went
home, and his mother probably convinced
him that playing Indian with auto trucks
is a little too far advanced, even for these
times.
