A. w. Castle, the meat man, is look
ing for some practical joker who made
off with his meerschaum pipe and grip,
and if he finds him some doctor and
probably an undertaken will have a
job. Mr. Castle spends as much of his
time as he can spare from his business
with his family at Walnut Beach, and
the cars when some practical joker got
hold of his pipe and grip sack. Later
he found the pipe in his coat pocket,
which was hanging on a rack near the
seat he occupied. but he could find no
tidings of the grip. During the day it
was sent to the store by messenger
boy with instructions to collect 10
cents on it, but the meat dealer refused
to settle. A couple of hours later he
was notified that the grip had been
picked up on the street and awaited
the owner at a South Main street cafe
but that anybody who called for it
would have to pay so cents. Mr. Castle
has not yet redeemed the property and
it is not known whether he intends to
or not It is said that he is more in
terested in finding out the name of the
person who took such liberties with his
belongings than in getting hold Of the
stolen goods.
