The wagon was wabbling some
thing scandalOus. and we watched
intently to observe accurately
when, where, who. and how
much 1t slammed. The China
man had barely got the words
out Of his mouth when the truck
landed a pip on the luggage
carrier OF q brand new Stude-
baker coach.
She struck where the black and
shiny paint looked firm as a
baseball bat, but the cruel shafts
they crirnped the gloss like a
sat-on op'ry hat.
A lot Of glass and laundry slips
fell out of the wagon, and there
was a hole in the luggage carrier,
and we felt little disappointed,
but we stuck around "a while
thinking some Of the luggage
might leak out, but II didn't, so
we copied one Of the slips, on
the chance of at least getting
silk shirt out Of Il. but the
tickets were all cancelled and we
returned them to the drivers seat.
There wasn't any story there,
and we were going hack to see IL
there was anything left oS the

said Excuse us. for stepping on

And for a fact, as far as the

Seventh street-nothing but Ford
roadsters and touring cars. And
Ford relics all the way up to the

crows to pick from, that wagon
landed on the only big car in
the block. And there was the
point Of the story, a block and
half long, right under our
nose. and we didn't see it until
the Italian bricklayer showed it
to us. That bricklayer should
lay off bricklaying and run

Abraham Lincoln in appearance and
who was destined to impersonate
the immortal Emancipation in the
most unusual screen production since
the invention Of the motion camera,
abraham Lincoln" which is now
being shown at the Eltinge theatre.
This George A. Billings, the SEN
sational Lincoln of the picturiZa-
ton of the life and times of Abra
ham Lincoln, is startlingly like the
martyr President in appearance and
temperament. The exact height and
weight of Honest Abe, Mr.. Billings
has also the almost flawless Lincoln
face, the same gait, mannerisms and
facial expression, voice and DISPOSE
ton.
He is veteran Of the Spanish
American and World War. He
served in the Philippines under
Lawton and Wheaton and was for
two years a member Of the famous
Darlington Scouts.
Previous to his coming to the
screen Mr.. Billings had several
years experience on the speaking
stage in stock and repertoire COM
panics.
