DID Not Assist the officer

One Of the men who refused to assist
Officer Murphy when called upon one
night last week, when the officer had all
he could do to arrest a man for deliber-
ately knocking another down on the
street, paid a fine in local court for the
offence.
The village attorney says that the Of
fence, although looked upon by most
people as trifling one, is very serious
one and all good citizens should consider
it duty, which it certainly is, TO help
out an officer OF the law when called
upon, IL every one refused to assist the
police things might come to such state
that it would take one officer to every
other citizen.
The justice imposed good big fine for
the offence and 1t is safe to say that the

offender he will make sure that he In not

The Latter Explains
His Defeat of Last
Saturday.
To give the Iron Country Rider An
Otner Opportunity 20 Meet Him
Other Notes or Interest.

Williams, the swift rider from lshpem-
log who was defeated at the recent n ee
at Hancock in the matched bicycle race
with Boone, explains his defeat In one OF
the iron country papers by stating that
he was 40 badly injured in the smashup
in the previous race that he was in no
kind of shape to ride in the five-mile
vent with Booze and thinks he could de-
feat the latter in another race.
Boone is willing and anxious to give
the man from the iron country another
race and is willing TO go to Ishpeming TO
do it. he says he ran very slow race
and can get down to a good deal swifte-
pace il necessary. Boone prefers riding
with a pacemaker, az then the staying,
qualities OF rider are brought into play
and the final squirt ia where the rider
shows what he is good for, but the iron
country boy would not ride that way
and the race was run without pace.
The same iron country paper explains
the smashup by stating that the two
Ishp ming riders were ahead when the
man behind ran INTO them causing them
to fall The other riders all claim that
il was Kennaugh that caused the spill
when he tried to pass Williams. Colds
worthy, who won the race, was in the
bunch and escaped with his shoe torn of
his foot. Neither of the riders appeared
10 be injured at all seriously and Monroe,
who was bleeding worse than any OF the
Others and whose wheel was smashed,
Immediately ran the quarter-mile race
and won il.
The other riders think the boys from
the iron country are sore because they
did not come out victorious and are busy
finding excuses for being squarely beaten
in races which we're fair in every way and
in which every point was allowed them
in order to get them to ride alter the
first race.
