propensities, having been treasurer

awakened dormant fears in the hearts
of other local would-be politicians.
The number of pioneers here who are

number who tell about how many votes

GLASS BROKEN
IN KEY BOXES.
Chief Baker Finds That MeddIers
Interfere With The Fire
Alarm System.

Chief Baker, of the fire department
while passing box 2S, at Market and
First streets yesterday afternoon, dis
covered that some one had broken the
small glass in the key receptacle on
the pole
During the past few months Chief
Baker has found that the glasses in
the key boxes have been broken many
times. 1t is the opinion of the chief
that small boys break the glasses. AS
there is heavy penalty for the Of
fense, it is evident that the youths do
not know what risks they are taking
when they interfere with the fire
alarm system.
Chief Baker says he intends to i'm
vestigate the matter and If he can
learn the names of those who are ma
liciously breaking the glasses in the
key boxes he will have them pun
ished.

Out of the Saloons.

he was preparing to make another
