City Marshal Nicholson started yes
terday what appears to develop into a
fad for the police when he had his mus
tache shaved. No sooner did officer
Weaver see the Improvement made in
his chiefs appearance than he hunted
up q barber shop and had the adorn-
ment of his upper lip, which had not
been touched by razor In sixteen
years, removed. Mr.. Weaver's friends,
however, are trying to figure out how
he improved his appearance, especially
after considering the fact that the off,
GERS wife threatened to GUST him from
the house at the point of a broom, and
his children cried because there was a
strange man in the house. Officer Hurd
followed suit ana had much the same
experience. Officer Clark says he will
not disgrace his family to follow any
body's style. and Deputy Marshal
Cochran vows he is in line because he
could never coax his beard to assume
even threatening aspect looking to-
ward mustache culture. The other pc.
lice officers are non-commtttal.
