MEN ACT JUST LIKE SHEEP
I.lttle lllnatratlon of How' Easy - It
I. to Stampede a tlty
(rowd,
It has been saTd that people are like
cheep one leads, the others follow. A
man undertook to prove this to a friend
recently and the result was quite satis
factory at least In so far as It proved
the man's point.
The man in question was approaching
an elevated station on the west side with
a friend. They were walking leisurely,
chatting and smoking. At the entrance
to the station they stopped, looked and
listened, but there was no train In sight,
and It was at this juncture that the par
ticular Individual In question conceived
Ills brilliant scheme.
'Kemarkable thing," he observed to his
friend, "how people will take things lor
granted. AH they need Is a leader who
knows, or Jippardntly' knows', where he is
going, and' they 1 will follow blindly like
so many sheep. ' Look at that bunch In
there walling for a train, for instance.
They are taking It easy In the station,
knowing that when the train approaches,
whether they- hear the rumble or not, a
bell will ring In time to let them reach
the platform and catch It.
"In just on. minute I can change the
plans of every roan and woman there.
Watch men make 'em follow men."
Saying which, he backed off to a suita
ble distance and, calling upon his friend
to follow, he dashed madly-for the door.
The second man was at his heels. To
gether they burst through the eecond
door, plunged across the room and to the
stairway, which they mounted three
steps at a time.
For en. moment the others In th. kta
tlon were dased. Then It dawned uaon
them, preat Scott! The train was nearly
there and there was something wrong
with the bell. There was a simultaneous
movement and then a wild srurry for the
stairs. Skirts swlthed about feminine
ankles and money rattled In masculine
pockets. Up the stairs they tore and
staggered out on the platform, to find-
two men calmly smoking their cigars and
watching with apparent Interest the an
tics of a couple of dogs in a vacant lot
below. There was no train In the station
ar.d there was no train In sight.
Had they been "stungr" They were not
sure, but It looked like It Angry looks
were cast upon a duplicate personifica
tion of wide eyed Innocence, which
turned as th. rush of passenger, poured
over ine iop sitp. uui trier, was no
proof. It wa. all circumstantial evl
dence. Finally one or two smiled and
then they all laughed.
The twe mtn passed Into the smoker
when the train did com. along and sat
down gravely. They wer. longing to
