Evening Republican, Volume 18, Number 245, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 16 October 1914 — Found He Was Mistaken. [ARTICLE]

Found He Was Mistaken.

A man from the country, in charity one will say from the country, although he may have been a Bostonese, entered a New York restaurant the other evening, and while waiting to die served, gave his attention to an electric fan revolving just above his head. It was a high pressure fan, noiseless, and almost, if not quite, Invisible because of Its rapid motion. The stranger gazed at it for some considerable time and was heard to mutter: “I don’t believe there is anything there at all.” With that he put up his hand to con* firm his belief. Immediately there was a yell that almost threw the place Into a panic. The man sprang Into the air, rushed out of the door and, as he disappeared, was heard to say: “I monkeyed with the buzz-saw, all right.” You think that other people are “funny.” But that Is just what they are thinking about you.
