ignorant of the rules of Grand Rapids
Street etiquette, and none the better
for having taken glass or two too
many, created little disturbance
Wednesday in the vicinity of Boards
ley's grocery store, after which his
attempts to pick up a conversation
with two or three high school girls,
were rewarded by the friendly atten-
tion of Officer John Garihee. who
convinced the offender that his place
was in his room at the Hotel. Not
being satisfied with the days pro-
ceedings, the stranger found it his
duty to pick up fight with a peace
full Grand Rapids citizen and finally
the Officer Of Discipline found it
necessary to lock up the transient.
It was thought that the one ia custo-
dy would be compelled to appear
before the Justice of Peace, but with
out further trouble, he was taken to
the G. M. & ST. Paul depot and polite
ly requested to sojourn.
