appeared at the window Of the shed
In the meanwhile the gloaters had taken
several chickens from the coop and were

SIX CAUGHT IN COLLINS NET.
Busy Day for the Marshal on Con-
duit Road.

Conduit road was unprotected last night
but the autoists weren't aware Of the
fact. Town Marshal Collins, of Glen
Echo, was all in. Yesterday was his busy
day. Six arrests were made, and when
O'Clock came the marshal went home
played out-his speedometer registered
forty miles.
AS a result of the busy day 800 was
packed snugly away in the little private
safe Of Mayor Garrett last night. The
money is not the property Of the county
as yet, all of 1t having been put up as
collateral
Thursday evening, however, six diff
ferent individuals will march, or ride
slowly, to Glen Echo, and appear before
the mayor on the respective charges
which have been entered on the books
opposite their names. The trials Of those
arrested yesterday have been set for
Thursday evening at o'clock.
From one end of the road to the other
the marshal rode slowly at times. ard
swiftly when 1t was necessary-aT day
yesterday. It was a game of hunt. There
was no chance about It. Party after party
appeared, and party after party was ar
rested. Others. those who were careful
in their movements and whose machines
were Q. K. in every particular, were not
mOlested in the least.
