BILLS FINE WAS PAID,
BUT WRONG BILL FREED
The Right One Fails to Show Up
After Supposed Release
From occoquan.

Did you hear about Bill Buckley? No?
Too bad. They sent him down to Oc-
coquan for thirty days-yep. Same old
trouble"
TOO bad. Let's pass tho hat and get
him out by paying his fine"
Whereupon tho two friends Of Bill
Buckleys went to work to pry Bill out
OF the workhouse. Bill had worked down
his time 80 that the fine stood at 1894
last Friday, and this amount was plunked
down upon the desk at the Police Court
Bill should have shown up Saturday
morning. but there was no sign Of him,
worried. Noon came and no Bill. and the
committee was peevish, and by the time
night arrived and Bill had not been seen,
there was q complete dissatisfaction in
tho ranks Of those who had contributed
money for Bills release.
An ernmissary was sent to the Police
Court, however, and he reported that
William Buckley. serving thirty days
sentence. had been released. It was dis
covered. however, that Bill, whose name
Is really William P. Buckley. was not
released. Whoever had paid the fine had
paid that Of William Buckley. who walked
on out of the workhouse without ques-
tioning any one-while our Bill" Will
liam P. Buckley. that is, remained behind.
However he's out now and the author
tiles are looking for the other Buckley
But II they never find him, they won't
the records show that there are two more
Buckleys left at Occoquan, and Judging
by Saturdays event one Buckley Is as
good as another.

The Horse

The horse is sliding off the map,
his friends at last admit it; he'll
hang around while, mayhap, but
soon he'll have to quit it. For
things propelled by gasoline in
crease each day in numbers, and
Dobbin leaves this earthly scene
for his eternal SAUNDERS. When
autos drove him from the pave of
hustling towns and cities, we said,
Hes found his urban grave,
which is thousand pities but on
the farms he'll have a place, till
farms are frozen over; along the
burrows there he'll chase, and fill
himself with clover" But now,
alas, he doesn't rank with agricul-
lures factors; the farmer draws
upon the bank, and buys some big
steel tractors; and one of these
will haul six plows, as through a
field it numbers; the horses see it
as they browse, and know they
are back numbers. They're ship
ping now our foaming steeds
across the briny water, for Eu-
rope needs them where she bleeds
and wades around in slaughter.
To turn them to the butchers
loose-that plan no one indorses
but it's about the only use that's
left, just now, for horses.

RESPECTING REAR LIGHTS
Washington Safety First Association
Particularly Concerned Re-
garding Jitneys.

Enforcement of the law providing
that all vehicles carry rear lights at
night, particularly in the case Of git
neys," was urged by the Washington
Safety First Association at meeting
at the Public Library last evening. 1t
was pointed out by number OF MEM
bers that many drivers of vehicles.
especially those in charge Of "1itneys."
were becoming careless regarding the
carrying of rear lights.
DIR. Edgar D. Thompson urged that
crossing policemen should warn per-
sons making diagonal cuts at the cor
ners that they should cross streets at
right angles. No action was taken for
the present asking that the police do
this. however.
1t was decided to ask for the placing
of a policeman at 9Th and U streets
northwest until improvements now un-
der way are completed 1t was said that
the crossing, always regarded as a
point of dan ger, offers unusual dimcul-
ties in its present condition.

THE ARKWAY.

In the third installment of "The Perils of Pauline to be shown at the Arkway tonight Owen, bitterly dis appointed because his airship plot failed, plots with Hicks to get Pauline away from Har1y's influence. They hire an old sailor to tell Pauline a history of his life and in the course of the story he relates to her how a treasure ship on which he was serv- ing was wrecked, and that he took the treasure ashore and buried it.
 Pauline falls for the story and at once begins to foot up an expedition to go in search of the treasure. Har- " tries to persuade Pauline not to take the venture but without avail. They quarrel and she tells Harry he ean not accompany her on the trip. Harry disguises as an old man and goes aboard anyhow and tells Pauline not to have anything to do with the eonspirators. The conspirators de- eide to do away with the old man but fail in their attempt, but their efforts afford a very spectacular dramatic episode.
