A big. fat man waving a black veil and calling to a trim voung woman waa the unusual spectacle that greeted the eyes of passers-by on Seventeenth and Farnarn street. Just before noon 'Wednesday. The big. fat man waa holding tha black veil aloft and trying to attract the attention of the trim young woman who waa proceeding rapidly north on Seventeenth street. Cb ahie ts detain the young woman the fat man entwined the veil around a poet at tbe southeast corner of Seventeenth and Farnarn. Tha young woman waa Just crossing Far narn whew the wind took tbe veil off her hat and carried it hiarh into the air, aa high aa the Patterson building on tha corner. The young woman waa evidently embar rassed. She looked at the van soar for a minute or two and then darted north on Seventeenth street, as if a he never ex sported the well to return to earth. But In that she was wrong. Tha wind waa Just Joking with her. "When it saw she took the matter so sertmialy the wind withdrew and the veil fell to tbe ground. And here's where the big. fat man geta on. He waa bowling down east en Farnarn street. He must nava been a great out fielder and fine baaa runner in hia day. He eaw the naughty wind steal the well when n waa a Mock away and then he aaw tha veD descend. He lit out. He reached tha spot where the veil touched earth just at the moment the veil did and ha made a great catch. "Here, Mosa. here'a your veil; come get tl. tt a all right." But ahe apurned hia gallantry. "Hey. girl, don't you want this veil 7" She evidently had veils to barn. "Oh well, you don't need to come and get it." and without feeling the Jib and curioua antkers rtf the spectators, the big., fat man swung the veil to tha post and went on. muttering something to himself.
