Tuck Mathews Contributed a Nice
Sum to City Treasury.
Tuck Mathews, an ebony-hued son
of Ham, played the leading role in
Mayor McNulty's Monday morning
matinee, and the entertainment made
the city $3.50 richer and Tuck that
amount poorer, even though he was
billed as the star actor. On Satur-
day night Tuck, who was bubbling
over with the joyful spirits, was rid
ing up and down the STREETS with one
of his dusky damsels and making
himself generally conspicuous, when
the police heard a pistol shot, which
they believed had been fired by Tuck.
Not being certain of their prey the
police awaited developments, and
later saw Tuck and his companion
leave the buggy without taking the
trouble of hitching the mule. The
police took charge of the mule and
DuSSy, anu upon SedICHlAS IL lOuAu

When Tuck reappeared he was ar
rested upon the charge of leaving his
mule unhitched and transporting
whiskey after shutdown. The mayor
fined him $3.50 for the first offense
and $40 for the second and warned
Tuck that in the future it would
be wise to do his celebrating outside
the city limits.

Appeals to Farmers.

DR.. l.. G.. Hardman, candidate for
governor, is an extensive farmer. He
owns a number of farms and they
are all scientifically conducted. BY
example he has done as much for
the development of farming as any
man in the state. By legislation he
has done more. His sympathies are
with the farmer. His heart is in the
work. That's the reason farmers are
lining up behind him in his work.

indicates an early movement of the

making any offer whatever for the
