THE DEPOT Girl

The poem below, taken trcm
Sovereign Visitor, may be some.
thing less tn IN d classic in compo.
sition, but The reader will per hsps
agree that the author edges up
dangert usly near the truth.
In every town where railroads run
You'll lind the depot girl"
Some who are frisky aud full of
fun
And remind you of pet squirrels.
Some are old and SONS are Young
And Some are middle-aged;
Some know how to use their
tongues
Like a parrot that is Gagged.
Some have rats upon the brain
Rats" quite large and brains
quite small -
Some 60 just to see the train.
While oilers go to see it all.
Some 60 there to &c. their small"
Others take their male" along,
Some go there for fear they fail
To hear their sweetheart's latest
song.
Some 60 there to meet their
aunts-
Knowing well they Il never
come;
But, you see. it gives a chance
TO 60 on "a little bum"
Some 60 t .ere in broad daylight,
To be seen aud see;
Others prefer the shades O. night.
When they feel more free.
Some advice Id like to give
These wayword "depot stroll
lers'-
It's true as gospel, sure as YOU
live
That you'll end like all high
rollers"
The girl that seeks the love of
man
Will find itnot in such pace;
But, it she wishes, she surely can
Easily find her own disgrace.
Some parents ought to take pill
Of G. cd old common sense"
And block the road that down hill
Where troubles all commence.
And keep the girls that wear short
skirts
AwaF from the temptor's snare,
And thus keep lot Of budding
flirts
From blooming as it we're.

try it again Sky days after the
date of the late election. M;ny
leading citizens after ascertaining
that a majority of the people voted
in favor of the Issue have changed
their stand in the matter and not
only promise to vote yes in next
election but will work for the
proposition. Already an election
has been called and the campaign
will open at Somerset next Mon
day when Judge B J. Bethurum,

speakers will address Pulaski's

portant and far reaching public
utility.

1T has been suggested that in
case Pulaski voted in its propose d
bond issue at it's second election
To be held within next sixty days,
VIII ch it is believed will be done,
a route be selected for a Somerset
Mt Vernon turnpike, starting at
end of the Mt. Vernon. Skeggs
Greek three and half mile pike via
Hansford and on to county line
near PlarO where Pulaski will
meet us with a Pile. Ii is claim
ed for this proposed route that the
grading would be much lighter
and cheaper thru the valleys, on
the route, than over the hills that
cannot be avoidt d on other routes
One of the lesdi & citizens on the
proposed lime offers to pay ex
penSes of engineers to make
surveys and estimates: another
will denote 81, 900 and one 5000
Others are being interested IN the
movement and should Pulaski S

BULL NEARLY KILLS
BOY AT H|GHSP|RE
Lad Will Likely Recover; Animal
Cores Farmer in Fight
in Barnyard

Several farm hands armed with
pitchforks battled for a half an hour

ing to death Eugene Book, a 15-year-
old youth.
Young Book is employed by Peter
Jacobs, Tenant on, the farm to do
chores about the place. Yesterday
afternoon he went to the barn to feed
the stock and noticed that the bull
was loose. He opened the barn door
he stepped through the door the bull
made mad rush towards him. Be-
fore he had taken a step the animal
struck him and crushed him to the
floor, plunging one horn deep into the
youths neck and probably injuring
him internally.
Jacobs. the farmer, saw the attack
and rushed to the boys aid. The en-
ragged animal turned on him and be-
fore the farmer could save himself,
cut several deep gashes in his arms
and chest Grabbing a pitchfork and
calling for help. Jacobs me tthe re-
peated rushes of the bull. Several
farm hands worked nalf an hour be-

wound three inches deep in his neck

TELEGRAPH FAMILY
ENJOYS CORNROAST
Rain Falls, but Appetites Are Un-
impaired and Hot Dishes
Drive Away Chill

Members of the Telegraph Fam
lily" from galley boy up. were guests
of the head of the house." President
z. j. Stackpole. at the annual corn
roast and sweetpotato bake at McCor-
mick's Island last evening. 1t rained
before the affair came to a conclu-
sion. but that only seemed to put an
edge on the appetites of those present
and gallons of steaming hot coffee
drove off the chill.
Ninety-three accepted invitations
and III attended. so 1t was necessary
to set an overfiowing table. Edward
A.. Cramp, the able pupil of George V.
Corl, presided at the fire and tucked
nearly 400 ears of corn away in the
hot ashes from which he took them
an hour later steaming and ready for
the salt and butter that make roast
corn about as delicious a morsel as
ever tickled the palate. In another
pit Mr. Cramp roasted about two
bushels of sweetpotatoes and among
the other items on the. bill of fare
were cold meats, cheese, potato chips
potato salad, bushels of hot frankfur-
ters, rolls, coffee, cakes and hundreds
of lollypops.
Jim Wilson escaped from his du-
ties in the police department Ions
enough to preside over the catering
force and Captain "Abbie" Sponsler
commanded the fleet" that conveyed
the family to and from the island.
Park Superintendent Taylor and his
assistant executive, ]. Raymond Hof-
fert, who kindly assisted in the ar
rangements were guests of honor,
and V. Grant Forrer, who has attend
ed every one of the cornroasts since
they became an institution in the Tele-
graph Family, and who was last year
made a member by adoption, COM
pleted the list of guests. A resolution
of thanks was passed for the services
of Mr.. Cramp and another of regret
for the absence of George Y. Corl. who
was kept at home by the threatening
weather Mr.. Corl has taught Mr..
Cramp all the arts of cornroasting and
yesterday Mr.. Cramp added new
wrinkle of his own in the way of a
labor saving device that ought to be
the envy of cornroasters the country
over. IT will he reserved for exclusive
use at Telegraph cornroasts.
II has been said that girls fear rain.
The charge is a base libel, at least so
far as Telegraph girls are concerned.
for they sat right out in the shower
that came up while supper was being
served and never even hesitated be-
tween frankfurters and lollypops.
The Telegraph baseball team was
there to a man and it demonstrated
Indt II tNulu 90 more lIldll llth any
nine of its weight in the county. One
member whose batting average is
about 400 was high man with seven
ears of corn, two.- sweetpotatoes and
six frankfurters to his credit, with a
lot of lollypops thrown in for good
measure. Some of the others almost
tied the score but lost out in the ninth
inning.
After ii was all over the Family"
got together and decided that it was
ready to accept an invitation for next
year. This puts it right up to Mr..
Stackpole. Doubtless he'll be glad
to hear about 1t.
