ABE MARTIN.

(Indianapolis News.) We don’t believe we kjn remember a presidential campaign when ther wuz as many eleventh hour band wagon cancellations as ther is this year. Mrs. Tipton Bud has a nephew that’s almost nineteen years ole an’ he’s never stolen a car. Lafayette, Ind., October 27.—r Passengers on a North Ninth street street-car were panic-stricken here today when a trolley wire broke, fell across the car and set fire to it. Twenty persons inside of the car were afraid to leave because the sputtering wire was directly across the doorway, and flames were shooting all about the windows. It appeared for a short time as though the occupants of the car would be burned, but the fire department was called and quickly put out the flames. The Matinee Musicale club will meet at 2:30 o’clock Friday afternoon at the home of Mrs. John A. Dunlap. A full attendance is desired.
