While on Duty.

PatrOlman Harry Jennings of the
local police department, was fined
one months pay and received a Sc
we're reprimand from the board Of
public safety at a special meeting
held Monday morning to hear charges
preferred against the officer by Chief

In the affidavit filed with the clerk
OF the board, Jennings was accused of
entering the saloon OF Clarence Elliott
on Polk st. while in full uniform and
while ON duty. While in the saloon
he was said to have drunk intoxicat-
ing liquor. He pleaded guilty TO the
charge, thus dispensing with the test
imOny OF the two witnesses. John A.

his chauffeur. Orville Matthews, were
the witnesses.

the present administration he haid
laid special stress upon the rule in
the police department manual which
absolutely forbids an officer to par
take of liquor while in discharge of
his duty.

said Augustine, rests largely upon
the conduct OF its officers. An officer
IN a saloon while in uniform is a bad
example. jennings also broke rule
No. 81, which forbids a patrolman
TO enter a saloon under any condi-
ton except while in strict discharge
of his duty"
Jennings in his own behalf stated
that the offense had been committed
just before he had started home at
