TAKES ROLL FROM JoRaENsor


After chase Of three blocks John
Falberg was arrested last evening
after relieving Martin Jorgenson OF
$112.25, in the rear of And McNabb's
saloon. According to William Lick
off, bartender for McNabb, Jorgen-
son who was intoxicated entered the
saloon with Falberg who apparently
was caring for the intoxicated man.
While drinking at the bar Falberg
attempted to relieve Jorgeson Of bis
watch but was apprehended by a
stranger who inquired II he was
stealing the time piece. Falberg In
formed the stranger that he was
friend of Jorgenson and was only TAX
ing care Of him.
Shortly after Falberg and Jorgen-
son retired to the rear OF the saloon
where the former Immediately began
to "Frisk" the latter. Lickoff, who
was tending bar became suspicious
and looked around the partition In
time to see Falberg draw a large roll
Of bills from Jorgenson's pocket and
place them in his own. Without any
further delay Falberg headed for the
door. AS Lickoff was behind the bar
he was unable to apprehend the
thief but quickly followed In pur-
suit and ordered him to stop.
Pickles Gives Chase
Falberg broke into a run and
headed for the Northern National
Bank corner whre he turned north.
William Pickles, formerly a police
man. was informed Of the robbery
and Immediately followed the thief.
Falbergs turned into the. ALLEY enear the
City Drug store and was followed
by PICKLES who caught, him behind
the Schneider Brothers Clothing
store. A short scuffle :. followed in
which Pickles was successful in mas
tering Falberg. "
"How much will you take to let
me go" said Falberg when he found
he was unable to make good his es-
cape.
Pickles did not appear to be salts
fed with a portion Of the loot and
forced the prisoner to hand over the
entire roll. When Falberg found that
he had no chanch for escape he COM
menced making several flimsy excus-
es and claimed that he was only car
ing for the mans money and that
he was an old friend OF Jorgensons.

One difficulty is that the Constitu-
