pJ’erry Horton finished his piano playing endurance stunt ‘Saturday night at 10:30 o’clock, after 37% hours at the instrument. It had been his intention to quit some earlier, after breaking a record that some fellow made a year or so ago of 36 hours and 36 minutes, but Saturday night’s Indianapolis News contained an item that the same fellow had just finished a continuous 37 hours and 22 minutes at Hamilton, Ohio, which was shown Perry, and he concluded to beat this 8 minutes. He waß not so greatly fatigued by his long thumping at the piano, and could have continued longer. He was out on the street Sunday as usual.
