AN ELECTRIC SIGN THAT COST A
HEAP OF MONEY
New York, Sept. 13.-Richard
Harding Davis is more of a humorist
than anybody thought he was.
The war correspondent and novel
list is author of play, who's Who?"
in which Collier is to appear shortly
at the Criterion theater. In an cleo
trio sign which now blazes nightly
across the front of the theater, the
names of Collier and Harding appear
in equally large letters.
This is said to have been due to
a misunderstanding on the electri-
clans part. Be that as it may, Hard
ing's full monaker stretches and
shines for block or so along Broad
way. And this is the letter he wrote
Charles Frohman, producer of the
show, after he had seen the sign:
Some writer's have their names
sent to the senate by Mr. Wilson and
they become ambassadors. Other
writer's have their names sent by Mr..
Frohman to his electrician, and they
become electric signs and add to the
brilliancy of Broadway. Without
wishing to infringe on the copyrights
OF. Mr.. George M. Cohan, would like
to say that would rather be an cleo

Good Ente rtainment.

The Romance of the Reaper" pre-
sented by Fred w Reick, of the Inter
national Harvester Company of Amer!-
ca, is entertaining and educational.
Mr. Reick, with colored views and
motion pictures, showed the develop
ment in farm methods during the ages.
For instance, he showed harvesting
from the reaEing hook to the modern
binder; blowing from the wooden mold
beard plow to three /. II. c.. tractors
pulling 80 plows, blowing an acre of
ground in four minutes; haying with
mower, tedders, side delivery rakes,
and hay loader He showed how
many of the machines are maize and
tested: and he eontrasted the old days
on the farm with the newer ana better
days.
During the evening Mr.. Reck said
many interesting things. We caught
these:
The scythe was invented in 1865 by
Joseph jerks. of Lynn, Mass.
About $50 years later a Seotchman
improved the scythe into a cradle.
Cyrus Mccormick invented the reap
er in 1921.
The wire binder was tried cut i'll 1914.
The twine binder followed in 1878.
If the wheat raised in the United
States last year were threshed and
loaded into freight cars, there would
be enough cars to make two mammoth
trains-one reaching from New York to
san Francisco, and the other from New
Orleans to Regina, Canada.

Thirty years ago it took 600 bushels
of corn to buy wagon. To-day 600

BANK WINDOW SMASHED.
Runaway Horses Wreck Big Plate of
State Trust Co.

A pair of heavy horses owned by
Henry F. Cummings of Manchester
started, at about 1890, Wednesday
forenoon, what threatened to be one or
the widest runaways which had oc-
CURED in Augusta for a long time, but
which was nipped in the bud by the
pluck of the driver, Thomas knight,
and the timely assistance on the part
of others, although the resultant dam
age was considerab BILE.
The horses, which were attached TO
a farm cart, became frightened at
something while standing in front Of
the Cony House and started dowa
Water street, colliding on the start
with a cab owned by David Merrill,
which was standing in front of the
BoWditch & Webster store. Mr.. Mer-
rll was thrown out upon the sidewalk
and the cab sustained one broken
shaft and also broken wheel. The
horse freed himself and started up
Water street, but was caught before
he had gone three rods.
The runaways kept on and ran
across the street, Mr.. Knight clnglng
to the off horse, but unable to hold
them The frightened animals took
the sidewalk on the east side of the
street about in front of the Postal
telegraph office, dragging their driver
with them. and narrowly escaped
crushing him against a team and also
against the iron post which supports
. the Postal sign. The next moment
they crashed against the brass sign of
the Augusta Savings Bank, making a
great dent in it, and passing that,
drove against the plate glass window
of the State Trust Co.
This window is 10x12 feet in size
and the plate was three eighths OF an
inch in thickness, but the impact shat
tered the plate and sent the glass lily
ing in all directions. Luckily none oi
the people in the bank We're near the
window at the time, although Treas
urer Libby and Miss Katherine Dow
ling. stenographer, were Approaching
the window to get look at the run
AWAY. They beat hasty retreat
however. out of the danger zone, and
no one in the bank was struck by the
flying glass.
The runaways We're stopped shortly
after they struck the window. As they
sheered off from the bank front, APP
parently intending to return to tue
street, George S. Thayer, former CLERK
in the office of the secretary OF State,
grabbed the near horse by the nostrils
and shut off the animals wind, which
treatment seemed to quiet the morse
so that the two animals were soon I'M
der control. The near horse sustained
cut on the nose, where it came IN
contact with the bank window, and
which required the taking of several
stitches to close, but the damage was
not considered serious, and the team
soon left for home.
A. E Farr of Manchester also die
some good work assisted materially II
stopping the runaways. He was near
" in front of the savings bank as INT
horses reached the sidewalk, and a
the risk of injury he jumped and sue
ceeded in catching hold of the rein OF
the near horse. He was between tht
horse and the building when the glas:
was broken. but chung to the rein I'M
ill the horses were stopped.
