Lantern on Broadway.

The dimming Of the white lights in
New York has brought the jokers to
the fore. Recently after the current
had been turned off a man walked up
the big stree with a lighted lantern.
He wended his way across Broadway,
and after swinging the lantern about
his head much after the fashion of
trainmen signaling, he continued up
the street. He had sown seeds that
began to sprout in many directions and
a few minutes later rival humorists
appeared with lanterns, electric flash
lights, and one optimist tried to Keep
a candle going as he walked down to-
ward Times Square.
