Anthony Aristotle Burkhart^ the jovial and classical proprietor of the street car office menagerie which has several species of typhoid germs and bacteria; John Van der Vaart whose ability as a “Schaafa-kopf” player has spread his name to the distant confines of the city of Sheboygan; and H, 8. Collins whose activity as a corporation and. trust buster has made him a familiar figure in the municipal court duringHENow these aforesaid four lights of this city did willfully depart from this city for the above Baid purposes and objects. The journey began at 4 o’clock in the morning. Of course they had a horse and carriage but that did not intefere with their walking seven eighths of the distance. The four could not remain in the rig at the same time, so the one with the slight form alias Abraham, was forced to tread the dusty road for fifteen long miles. The horje too was on a vacation and kept step with the pedestrian, Abraham setting the pace.The party arrived at noon and immediately cast their lines. Zion felt a tug at his pole and Van told him he should pull up that fie had a black queen or rather a black basB upon bis hook. Abe followed the directions but bis sli ght form could not stand the strain and hefell into the- waiting waters.Strange to say but for some reason or other Abe did not sink and Anthony Aristotle who haa had some experience in saving typhoid germs and other animals of hia menagerie, cast out a friendly hand to Abe and pulled him to shore. The body was then rolled, not over a barrel however and Abraham revived. Collins finally was able to recover the fish that Abe had lost. Afterall the fish in that and neighboring lakes bad been caught and profusely distri-v buted to the farmers of the yicinity, the party returned home keeping for the selves only a perch, two minnows anA a crawfish. The party was 'in the best of spirits that the delicate and artistic figure of Abe Zion the rival of Venus de Milo was still among their number.nvriiiA
