Dives at Paper-Filled Purse.
Discovers Joke and Laughs
Self Nearly toDeath at Car
Men and Pedestrians.

A score of people yesterday were
victimized by a practical joker, who
placed a large purse filed with paper
on the car tracks near Spanish and
Mcrriwether streets.
Col. Mat Morrison, pedestrian and
gentleman of leisure, was strOlling
South on Spanish, and as he started
to cross the street his weather eye
detected the pocketbook, which bulged
with its contents.
The Colonel went to that purse
with all of the action that bass dis
plays in grabbing a phony fly When
he reached it he had to reverse in
order to keep from rushing right over
what he thought was Rockefeller
bankroll
Mr.. Morrison snatchcd it up, pried
it open and then locked around to
see if anyone was looking. Besides a
bundle of paper it contained wad
of cotton. The Colonel dropped it
and mosoved down tn" street look

st. Petersburg, July 29.-President
ofthe Council Of Georemyk kline made the
following remark tonight. Russia
is determined not TO allow Seryia to be
crushed, but will fulfill its duty to
this small kindgom which has suffered
so much from Austri's hands. Russia
will not be frightened at any threats
that Austria may make, as she knows
her obligations to her Slavic brethren
in the Balkans, and will not consent
to Servia becoming Austrian Vasssl.
THE European equilibrium demands
that the Slav kingdom retain its indie
pendence which Russia will uphold
to this end. To this effect Russia will
take all the measures that the gravity
Of the situation requires"

destal and almost bowed his legs in his
mad dash for the purse. He opened
it while the passengers Uttered, then
turned around and walked right back
to his seat on the front of the car.
Col Morrison, who had witnessed
the incident, had to prop himself
up against tree in order to give his
giggling muscles room to work freely
After the car passed, the Colonel perch
ed himself on the curb to await the
next victim.
Another car came rafting down the
street, and Mr.. Morrison got ready
to enjoy the second act. Motorman
Chris Cruise discovered the pocketboOk
and stopped his coach. He got
strange hold on the purse in record
time and yanked it open in plain view
of the passengers. Col Morrison's
face again fell ajar and he roared
with genuine laughter.
Mr.. Cruise climbed on his car,
turned on the power and sped madly
up Spanish street. Col Morrison
remained at his post and watched one
victim after another pick up the purse
and peep in. When he realized he
was about to laugh himself todcath.
