ASSAWTER
WORE STAR


A thug with a star pinned to
his vest, supposed to be a spe-
cial policeman or one imperson-
ating an officer is the one who
beat T. Anderson insensible and
robbed him last night. This
was learned by the detectives
today when they requestioned
the victim after he was in a bet
ter condition than this morn
ing from the effects of his ter
ribIe experience.
The police are puzzled. An
derson 10 positive now that the
man who attacked him wore a
star, and. he says he was with
him for some little time before
he turned on him with a club
and beat him down. The police
are divided In their opinions,
some believing that some spe-
cial officer Is responsible, while
others favor a theory that the
man carried a star for a ruse.

StunQ!
Who said they wanted a police

with its dainty gold braids and with
the golden plate engraved with the

charms.

Chief of Police Sullivan first
took away few of the patrol SER
geants' exclusive comforts by re-
moving the easy seats from along
the walls in police headquarters.
He said too many hobos and other
men of leisure were making that
their loafing place, but they were
equally inviting to the poor, tired
and sleepy patrol sergeant with lit
tie else to do but to take out his
squad of patrolmen and come back
to the station looking and acting
as official as possible, to wait for
the next sergeant to relieve him.
1t was safe bet that other men
of apparent leisure would never
get one of those easy seats if the
men under the cap could beat him

being SO moulded that they expect no

prepared by the training of fine ia
Their and most excellent mothers for
the vissicitudes of life. The home of
these yourg people must be happy
one. Miss Mabel is possessed of all
the graces that appeals to man which
makes her a CHERISHED prize a most
amiable woman. That she will fill
her sphere in life we have no hesitan-
cy in saying. Her life will be devo.
ted to her husband and her presence
to him joy forever. John is fully
competent to meet the battles of life.
From boyhood to the present he has
been dutiful son, and without blem-
ish of character. A hard worker and
frugal in his habits. That he under
stood the vows he assumed yesterday
no one can deny. He will be faith
full to them and marriage to these
young people will not be failure.
