THREE YOUNG MEN TAKE A COLD BATH Unknown Youngsters Fall Off Wharf Into Icy Waters of Bay. Three young men went down to the.harbor docks yesterday afternoon to take passage on a gasoline launch up the river about 15 miles. While Btepplng from the wharf to the boat they misjudged their distance and all three took a bath. A rope was lying on the wharf and this was thrown to the men struggling in the tide. One after another, altogether, they clamb ered up Into safety and hurried to change their clothes little the worse for the experience except receiving a bath. They were so chagrined at the mishap that they refused to divulge their names, so tho public will have to do some guessing. They explained later that distance always looks shorter on tho water than It really Is and consequently they stepped too short even after making the allow ances for the extra distance, as they thought. All of them could swim, so that any hero medals will not be forthcoming. It was an unfortunate occurrence "to say the least," and they will not let "same" happen again.

Marshfield Is out for tho champion ship In tho exaggeration of rumors, according to tho way some reports get twisted up in this city. Without any foundation whatever, except from tho "pipe" dream of somo talkatlvo person, a rumor on any topic will start Its rounds. By tho time It has passed a third person it has become an established fact, and after It hns passed tho sixth person It has been multiplied six times or moro nnd represents something on tlroly tho opposlto of what tho talk atlvo person first started. By tho time theso rumors are run to earth and dissolve In smoke, along comes another rain. Leave your orders for llttlo pigs, turkeys, geese, ducks and chickens at tho Sanitary Meat Market.
