TOOK PLANTS FROM PARK
Some One, Female Suspected, Stole
Flowers From Washington Resort;
ReveIry In SibIey Grounds
From Wednesdays Daily.

.
Miscreants in this city who are IN
the habit of midnight revelry have
hit upon the parks which are scat
tered about Mankato as the scenes
of their nightly Publications. and the
parks are suffering from the on
slaughs of these obstreperous ones.
Last night someone invaded Wash
ington park on North Fourth street,
and removed five valuable plants
from the flower beds The theft was
noticed this morning by Park Fore
man Fred MoehlenbrocH who mott
fled Park Commissioner Adolph G..
Lack. Mr.. Lack in turn notified
the police department, and Chief of
Police Eli Klugherz called upon Dep
uty Sheriff Ed Ario and the blood
hounds to aid in the enforcement Of
the law. The deputy and the dogs
went to the park this morning, and
discovered that from the tracks
around the flower beds, the plants
had evidently been removed by a
woman who wore small shoe, about
No. 5 thought the deputy.
The dogs took the trail at once
and hiked up the alley north of the
park They took the same trail
three times, and stopped near the
same barn each time. The fourth
time, one of the dogs went past the
barn and shifted the air suspiciously
No arrests have been made as yet,
as the dogs have failed to discover
the missing plants.
The county commissioners are now
considering a proposition from an
expert blood hound handler of Wa
terloo. Iowa, and he may be hired
by the county to come here and
take care of the dogs, and make
them work If this is done, he will
make a speciality of teaching the
animals to trace female flower
thieves.
Sibley park has also suffered from
midnight marauders. 1t seems that
several thirsty young men have TAX

Partially Dead Tree aHre.

A large tree on the corner of
Pleasant and Willard streets, partial
ly dead, caught fire about midnight
last night from some unknown rea-
son and it took the central station
firemen several minutes to get the
blaze extinguished. Three chemicals
were used and quantity of water.
The branches and the trunk were
afire from the ground up, and there
is almost nothing left of the mon
arch of the forest now. How the
tree was set on fire has not been
learned. Albert Lindholm, who re-
sides on the property where it was
located, saw the fire from his win
dow and telephoned to the fire de-
