A Year for Burglary

If Isaac Simington could have con-
cealed his wooden leg, he might
today be free man, instead of being
II prison. He burglarized place
a few weeks ago, and might have got
away, but the slueths of justice had
been ordered to look for wooden
legged man, and with this clue, they
ran their prey to earth.
Simington plead guilty before
Judge Risjord in the circuit court
last Monday morning to the charge
of burglary and was ordered commit
ted to the State Reformatory at
Green Bay for one year. The burg
larry was committed at Lake Nema-
kagon on Oct. 10th by two men.

the description, the officers easily To-
Gated him, but his partner escaped.
He plead guilty and was taken to
Green Bay by Sheriff Happle of

person might suppose. OF course they
do more than this. They investigate
into fOodstuffs, prepare reports and do
other: things that layman can hardly
explain. But they get paid for eating
as well.
The two men are DR.. @. f. Lang

assistant in the bureau of food hygiene
of the department of agriculture. These
two men have corps of assistants,

put in by Sir Christopher Wren, the
famous architect. who built the cathe

serious mischief for some time.
The settling walls and unstable piers
on an insecure foundation have threat

criticism of Sir Christopher Wren's

are to be made.
