GLEASON HOLDS
UP AUTOMOBILES
Police Captain Busy at the
Park Entrance Seeing to
1t That Laws Are 0beyed
SEVERAL ARRESTS MADE
One Offender Exceeds Speed
Limit, While Others Fail
to Display Proper Signs

Every automobile that entered the park
yesterday had to pass inspection before
Captain Gleason and a posse. Captain
Gleason is determined that the chug-chug
wagons must behave themselves while
they are in his district. Four arrests
were made early in the afternoon, and the
posse continued the work all night.
The quartet that failed to remember
the long string of rules governing mo-
billing in the park during the afternoon
are: Andrew Christensen, chauffeur; /;
Mat Leary, chauffeur; George Richmiller,
a manufacturer, and Hippolyte CauEert,
manager of the Thomas Dyeing and
Cleaning works. Cauvert exceeded the
speed limit; the others failed to display
proper numbers.
When some Of the private cars were
halted the occupants. remembering what
day 1t was, thought that they were vic
Tins of an Apri1-fool joke; but every
thing in the'line of benzine buggy, from
the smallest runabout TO the touring car
and the big automobile bus. was held up
and closely examined.
One thing that Captain Gleason insists
on is that the drivers of public cars dis
play their municipal licenses. The mu-
nicipal license tag is a bulky affair, and
the chauffeurs have been accustomed to
hiding them under the seats. II insist
that they wear that badge in preference to
the State tag said Captain Gleason.
There was considerable grumbling at the
order, but before the news had gone
around. and the drivers were wearing
both badges.
I'VE do not intend to make it any
harder for the automobiles than we can
help" declared the captain. but there
are ordinances in black and white con-
cerning automobling in the park, and
they must be obeyed- 1 have had COM
plants of late that the owners and chauf-
feurs have been lax of late, and L take
this method of impressing on them the
fact that the law must be complied with
in every particular This will be done
just as often as necessary"
