On Friday evening of last week three tramps
who said they were from Baltimore came out
as far as Perry Hall toll-gate and there located
on the grass and then proceeded to I'LL up on
beer from a nearby saloon. They later came
on to Perry Hall and stopped at Weber's Hotel;
They wanted lodging and the best that could
be furnished them was in the barn and per-
haps that was too good. Before they finally
retired Mr.. George Langkam discovered that
his watch was gone. He swore out warrant
for the men. but before the special officer could
come up with them, one of them got away,
going in the direction of the city. The next
day he was followed by an officer tho found
that the man was well known to the police OF
the Southern District, to whom description
of him was given. 1t is likely that before this
4 time the thief is in custody. An officer is
badly needed in this section of the county.

with the fertilizer.
