Stole to Keen Warm,

Racine, Wis.-Detective George and
Sergeant Harms recently arrested
George Teims of Boston, former men,
ber of the crew of the cruiser Charles
ton, charged with the larceny of an
overcoat at a Racine tannery. Teims
is about feet tall and of muscular
build. The police were notified of the
case, but before they could effect
Teims' arrest he had stolen another
garment, wearing both of them.
When arrested he said the sudden
change from spring weather to 10 be-
low forced him to the theft.

1t is found necessary by the military
authorities to make some change in
the regulations governing the manage
ment of post exchanges, especially un-
der those circumstances, where one or
ganization succeeds another. An in
coming force of troops at one Of the
military posts recently refused to join
the post exchange, which had been
previously conducted by troops trans
ferred from the post to duty in the
Philippines. The commanding officers
of the two companies felt justified un-
der existing regulations in storing the

equipment and supplies of the old post
exchange to the credit of the departing
troops and starting new exchange.
The action was overruled, but it took
considerable time and caused much
trouble to adjust the property rights
of the former garrison. 1t is thought
that there should be some means of
continuing post exchange administra-
tion without these complications-New
York Tribune.

Tomorrow night Coshocton Will
make its first appearance at the local
rink and the Marionites are making
preparations to give them real warm
reception. Quinns Runts are getting
into better condition and from this
time on can be expected to set a pace
that will be plenty warm enough for
9ny team in the league. esN.
Sometime this week, Quinn hopes
to strengthen his lineup with the ad-
dtion of star. and II the deal can
be pulled off Bobby will have one
of the incest balanced teams in the
league. As was expected the locals
were badly treated during the first
week in the league. All of the men
were out of condition, having been
idle for some time before the first
game. But they are rounding into
form now, and there will be some
doings in the Ohio polo league un-
less all signs fail. iJu
The crowds are getting larger every
game which indicates that the sport
loving public of the city is becoming
enthusiastic ofer the game. There
will be three gaines at the local rink
this week, Tuesday. Wednesday and
Thursday and there( should IT, a
packed house at each contest.
Within short time the rink will
be packed at each performance and
the roofing at the baseball games of
last summer will seem tame In cOm-
parison with that at the rink. A
cordial invitation has been extended
to ladies to visit the rink and there
are large numbers at every game.
