BALTIMORE, November 8.— Resin Williams, colored, aged 113 vears, got mad and ran away from home. Resin, admittedly not as young as he was when he dug trenches at Gettysburg, ended up in a police station when his legs gave out. A kindly officer, to whom he applied for aid, brought him J to the station. The aged man asserted he'd argued with his son-in-law, got his temper up, and decided to go and live with his son, Arthur. It was, he admitted, the first time he’d run away in more than 100 vears, And he couldn't find Ar- thur. Later, his daughter, Jenny Wesley, arrived at the police sta- tion to claim him, She verified his age. When Coughs Hang On--Worry Don’t fool with sweet syrup con- THE EVENING STAR., WASHINGTON, D.
