being taken to the East Mississippi In.

glass of water, which the waiter did.
Miss Burke slammed the glass to the
tile floor, jumped up and rushed to the

began a general fusillade of crockery

The employees and guests lost no
time in getting out of the way, and
made a general exodus through back
doors, front doors and up the stair
way. The young lady was finally
quieted by a relative, who took her to
the hospital.
