THEY IMAGINED
THEMSELVES BOYS

Two gentlemen of Sequachee in
dulged in scboolboy fracus Satur
day morning i'll front of the Supply
Store. They hadn't had scrap since
they were schoolboys aud it tiuglea
in their blood to have Que, especially
since the mud was good aud deep in
the street.
Col B B. Lasater, an airy, fairy
specimen of jolly humanity, weighing
$780, and J. E. DeSabla, another prac-
teal joker who wears his hair a la
Svengali, were the principals, assist
ed by crowd of admiring spectators.
It seems that fire set by Mfr. Lasater
destroyed some of DeSabla's fence,
DeSabla told Lasater he would have to
replace it, and Lasater said may,
nay, Pauline" whereupon DeSabla
hauled off and smote him punch on
the rubicund Lasater came back,
however, and in a clinch both men
took the mud, and a regular schoolboy
racket ensued 1t was delightful to see
the mud fly amid the squirming legs
and arms. Finally Will Harris parted
the combatants, who took their sever
al ways in peace and silence, each
with keen appreciation of the others
ability as John l.. Sullivan or Jim
Corbett. Boys will be boys, and no.
