A MATCH AND SOME GASOLINE

An irresponsible man, old enougl
to be grandpa, car, some spilled
gasoline, and lighted match wer,
the principal factors; a tragedy wal
narrowly averted.
1t was last Sunday, almost noon.
A Maxwell car, bearing Oklahoma
license No. 29424M, stopped at the
gasoline station in front of the Stone
garage to have her tank filed. In
some way, mysterious or otherwise,
gas was spilled upon part of the up
holstery and the drivers trousers leg.
Mr.. Chauffeur was tired of dry
smoking his cigar and produced a
match. He stopped to light thence
the ignition.
Business picked up, and the car
was vacated. Mr.. c. demanded i'm
mediate attention, and-received it.
The flames were smothered from
him before the fire extinguisher was
led to the timely assistance of the
car. Then there followed weeping,
and wailing, and gnashing Of teeth;
it had been found that fire and gaso-
line were not the best of friends.
The injuries sustained by the man
were very painful, but will not prove
fatal. Outside of burned cushion
or two, the car is no worse for the
experience.

English and hearing some passengers
speak the name of the latter city he
decided 1t must be time to land, with
the result that he stepped of the
train and never realized his mistake
until after the train had pulled out.
Some Greek laborers at the depot
knew enough Italian to figure out his
nationality and they at once directed
him to Corporal Donate, who hasn't
been over the pond 30 Ions himaelf.
and the corporal took care OF him
until the next day, when he was put
aboard No. and sent on his way re-
joicing. Mr.. Antonio had inherited
some money and property In Cali

about 1t. He is married man and
