Fred Tout, since promoted to sergeant

mentS to the effect that the chief had
been showing Tout favoritism and that

WaTdleigh powerful blow. which frac-
tured his jaw. Wardleigh was sitting
quietly on the steps of H. G. NJ. i. and
had no warning Of the assault. The frac-
ture of his jaw is giving him much pain
and bis face is swollen out of all recog-
milton. The sentence imposed by Murphy
was the limit.
John Walters, his companion during the
episode, paid rather dearly for the STROLL
