The tempta ton is said to be very great to urn the corner in the old fashioned way and get to the postoffice a half minute sooner.

 who are so blind that they won't sec the stationary policeman.
 Paul Baxter Beville was one of the early ones to cut the corner and cross the dead line by smashing bran new city statoot into several fragments.
 Mrs. J. P Beebe wandering along in a
 vehicle drawn by old Dobbins also tres passed up. .on the thou shalt not pre- cinct and was likewise notified to ap- pear before his honor. Judge Irwin, and explain how it happened.
