cenzo Gourciou, an aged farmer, and
Anthony Laubert, 19 years old, nar
rowly escaped while returning from
West Egg Harbor with a load of hay
when it suddenly became a mass of
flames. The horses became crazed and
dashed along the road at terrific speed.
The wind fanned the flames, which
turned the wagon into a furnace. The
two men pulled frantically at the
reins, but the horses kept on, narrowly
missing automobillsts, who turned far
into the roadside to escape the burn
ing wagon.
Both the men and horses would
have been rested alive but for the
heroic action of Henry Butterhoff and
Joseph Nowatzki. who were returning
home in an automobile when they dis
covered the blazing wagon. Applying
extra speed, they passed and stopped
their machine crosswise of the road
bringing the horses to a stop. The
men escaped just as the flames were
approaching the front wheels.

MAJESTIC VAUDEVILLE
The one best bet of the Majestlc's
season thus far Is the current excel
lent offering that leaves the popular
vaudeville theater after to-day's per
formances. Included in the splendid
line-up is the act beautiful called "The
Old Master," featuring Dan Burke and
Girls; also Mullen and Coogan, the
very funny rapldtlre singing and talk
ing comedians; Harry Hayward and
company with a clever comedy, "The
Firefly,' and one or two others equally
as important. When the Majestlc's
booking agent looked for some attrac
tive things to send to Harrisburg next
week, he had young Harrisburg par
ticularly in mind, and then he saw the
name of "King." the greatest of all
educated monkeys, and he decided to
send "King" to the Majestic, despite
his high salary, for he meant to send
something unusual for the kiddles.
"King" is looked upon by vaudeville
managers as being the best educated
monkey, or for that matter the best
trained animal in all the range of
\audeville. A corking comedy show,
including the Orpheum favorite, Obrien
Havel and his company, presenting
"The Office Boy," will support "King."

A FASHION NOTE FROM PEKING
The dress of both civil and military
officials is to be changed. When the
new republic was established, the an
cient order of official robes, with dis
tinguished headgear, was done away
with, and many of the new officials
who had been educated abroad re
tained their European costume. Now,
however, the government Is considering
adopting a special form of dress for
the different grades of officials which
will be more in keeping with ancient
form. —The Christian Herald.
