TRANSPORTATION FIRE E

Frank, the Ossified Man." proved
a great drawing card last night at
the re-opening of the Eastport Fire
mems carnival foot of Chesapeake
avenue. opposite Horn Point beach.
There is no admission charged TO
see the ossified man, who makes his
living by exhibiting himself at fetes
and carnivals throughout the country,
by selling little pamphlets with a
sketch of his life, and his photograph.
That he is no fake is attested by
the many people who saw him last
night, and a representative of the
Capital who visited him today. On ap-
preaching the Capital man espied
someone under a Ford car, in which
the ossified man travels and makes
home, and said to himself "Aha, so
this is the ossified man mending his
car" This was not true for the os-
sifled man himself was lying in bed
smoking a cigarette and amusing him
self with playing solitaire, as best an
ossified man can play the game.
To enable all patrons to go to the
Eastport carnival, there is being run
each night automobile trucks free OF
charge from Church Circle to the car
nival grounds These trucks leave the
Circle every half hour conveying any
one who desires to patronize the car
nival to the grounds at Eastport free
of charge.
There are many attractions includ-
ing dancing with good, snappy music,
and this feature was a popular one
last night. The weather is ideal and
is expected large crowds will be
present tonight. All kinds of games
and amusements are on the grounds
and there are many things for the
lucky winner Last night Tunis
Strange, of Annapolis, proved to be a
lucky winner, carrying off many good
prizes.
The carnival is for the fund for
Eastport's fire apparatus, and public
patronage is hoped for during the re-
mainder of the week.
