The trolley from Hartford arrived. It was necessary to flag the 20 cent fare ex- | press and everybody thereon volun- teered to attempt convince driver of his fault. The ‘‘authorities on raising’’ con- sulted several times with the result that the horse was brought out of its | predicament, and all three members | of the rolling stock family pursued the hitherto even tenor of transportation. | The driver of the team refused to be | interviewed even to give a hint at the initials of his name. Neither would he impart the cret which a dozen | thirsty soult wished to obtain. to HEAVYWEIGHTS TO MEET Des Moines, lowa, Dec. 18.—John Pesek of Shelton, Neb., and Earl Caddock of Walnut, Iowa, former heavyweight wrestling champion of the_world, will meet in a finish match here Dec. 28, it was announced today. | To Cure a Cold in One Day Take Grove's QUININE tablets. gnature of The genuine bears 30c.
