That the old custom of playing
stupid April Fool jokes has not
entirely died out was proven yes-

terday even by such eminently
practical people as those of
Prince Rupert It began shortly

after the birth of April First by
Mr Sr., a practical joker
of the deepest dye on every avail-
able occasion, being called from
his bed by the story of a terrible
holdup which of course proved a
myth. Mr. Corley took revenge
by nailing to the floor at the en-
trance to the Royal a fat looking
pocket book and watching the
people who attempted to slyly and
surreptitiously purloin it.

Late last night a school teacher
turned up the light and was ahout

that she had overlooked looking
under the bed for a hiding man.
She was overwhelmed to find that
for once there was a man there,
or, as it afterward turned out
when her screams called friends
to her aid, at least a_ pair of

 

stuffed boots and a pair of stuffed
trousers of a man. !

There were quite a-number of |
other more simple jokes. One of|
these was at the Central Hotel, |
