Manager Joynt immediately informed the man that dogs were not allowed so the man got off but swung on to the rear platform thinking to dodge the dog but the foxy animal jumped on too, and the owner sat down and left him stay on. When Fairbanks was reached they both jumped off and were walking up the platform when Joynt dropped off the front of the caoch.

 DAN
By Tue .Tattler.

ONE Big Dan Callahan is ON regular attendant DAN of Thorne's theatre
 and likes to crowd himself into a corner seat up against the wall. He was in his accustomed place a short time ago when high school girl and her chum came in, during the dark scene. There was 8 vacant seat next to Dan and as he was in the shadow it appeared that both seats were empty. One girl took the chair and the other pumped down on Dan but she gave startled shriek, and Dan a grunt, that startled everyone near. The girls skipped be- fore the lights came on and Dan was unable to find out who "sat on him" something very few men can do and get away with it.
