Old-Time Custom to
Be Abolished.
WEBSTER NEEDS A
Modern Force to Protect
Her Interests.

Webster, March 1.-THE present
watch system will live only in memory,
for at the coming town election the old
fashioned style of watching the town
will be wiped out. The die is cast, and
the work of abolishing the system has
already commenced.
Some time ago the subject of abol-
ishing the old-fashioned watch was ag-
itated by some in town, but at that
date the time was not exactly advanta-
geous for the scheme to so through.
The present night watch was estab-
lished many years ago and has been in
vogue until now. A few of the prirci-
pie streets in the business portion of
the town were selected to comprise the
watch, and it was called Watch dis
trict, No. l."
The formation of that police force
was the foundation of regular organ
lied day night police force, with chief
of police. Representative and ex-Dep-
uty Sheriff Joseph p. Love is spoken
of good man for that position. He
has had years of experience in the
criminal line.
Webster badly needs a day and night
ly rampant in town still many petty
occurrences happen that would not occur
had the town regular organized day
and night force.
The present night patrolmen, Messrs.
Gilbert Osborne and William Hyland,
could be discharged and then hired
over, and with cooperation that Dud
ley should be amply protected, and it is
suggested that Dudley organize a po-

A prominent official, who did not wish
his name used in connection with the
matter at the present, told the Web
ster correspondent of the Spy that the
matter was fast coming to a focus and
that it was practically settled that the
next town meeting, which falls on April
8, would settle the matter officially.

their wedding. 1t attracted wide atten-
tion and pictures OF the couple were printed

harpe, Ill., saw the story in scrap of a

his brother. A correspondence was begun
which practically proved this true. The
Laharpe brother is 80 years old and the one
here So. They lived in Pittsburg in 1928,
when John Hickey went on the Ohio as
steamboat pilot and never saw any of his
family again. They thought him dead.

information to a banker there, who had
written the letters for John Hickey, and in
reply has received word that Hickey has
started on foot for Clarinda Dr. Hickey is
making every effort to learn where the
brother is and ito have means provided by
which he can come by rail. If it proves true
that they are brothers, which both are con-
ident they are, they have not seen each
other for seventy-siX years.
