Attorney Lewis ani Aft6me'llc.
County Attornoy ty. B. Lewis has
recently bocamo the owner of an nil-
tomobllo and Thursday afternoon ns
twilight was approaching' ho had some
business to transact across the street
from Tho Reporter ofllcottnd steered
himself tip to that point lit his' recent
ly acquired profanity promoter. After
tho business had been transacted Mr
Lewis returned to his machlneVs light
hearted as a boy without a'sioncbrulso
and a peaceable feeling forall man-
Kina ana uuioiiiouuch. no waiKcu up
bo tho muley end of it and gave the
crank a yank Just as a professional
chauffeur wquld do mounted tho seat
and was ready to go but tho machine
.showed np going inclination. With a
iwlso look Job-llko patience .and mor-
jry whistlo tho dlclplo of Blackstone
dismounted nnd preceeded to Investi-
gate and endeavor to remedy tho
trouble but in hoth he failed. Matters
had grown serious and patience wis
dom and whistlo took wings. Ho was
seen to drag out his tool bag and heard
to ejauculato soino strange- language
which sounded from a dlstanco like
a cross between French and English.
Ho Worked and exuded perforation
long after tho blanket of night had
been spread before he admitted his de-
feat and pronounced the auto conquer-
or. As a last resort and In tho ab-
sence of a few sticks of dynamito ho
threatened to road to It the .auto act
of tho thirtieth legislature and Tvhen
it failed to yield to this he left it and
wended his way homeward. After a
bad night's sleep John Spauldlng the
doctor who has never failed. to matte
an indisposed auto go was called to
the scene and after a diagnosis it was
found that the all and1 only trouble
there happened to be nogasollne Jin
the tank.. Mr. Lewis remarked) doggon
It filled the tank and Vent hls .way
rejoicing.
An Old Tinier Lost.
Maj. F. W. GIrand tells of a rjde over
greater Abllenp which shows the' won
derful growth of our city and too that
the average citizen does not know
whnt Is taking plaoe. He "says that he
was the Invited guest of Coh John
Bpwyer'. They are both old timers but
the Major has watched from a third
Btory window of. the. Federal building
the growth of the additions and.; direct
the courso of the drive. Going north
on Plus the two looked over the new
residences on that street and were
surprised fit the handsome homes to
be seen in. tho Simmons College .addi-
tion;. But the 'interesting incident' of
the trip occurred after passing
through the Valley View addition on
their return when Col. 'Bowyer got'
bothered.- Major GIrand was wise at
a glance and asked If his host could
toll him wherd they were. No ona of
tho fathers of the city was lost and not
until the home ofMr. Heyck was shown
to him was the missing mental equilib-
rium regained. "And do you know?'
said the Colonel "i was In two blocks
oL where-1 wooed and won my wjfe."
