During the peaceful quiet of
Friday evening, the merchants
along International Avenue

ing somnolence by the passing

liantly colored comet. Investi
gation developed, however,

piration at all, unless we as
sume the correctness of cer
tain lover’s designations re
lating to the fair sex. For it de
veloped under investigation
that two of our popular mat
rons were out for an airing and
| had put up an impromptu
Marathon, possibly to make
up for lack of housework at
home.
