CHARLES M. HAUKOLE
CATCHES BOLD BURGLAR;
FINDS HE'S THE GAS MAN

He looked .iae d Dold, bad burglar,
and he was caught in most compro-
missing position-on his knees and one
hand, with the other resting on the
safe. peering under 1t. And there
we're his tools jus+ beside him. Who
wouldn't take him for burglar?
Charles NJ. Haukole. private secre-
tary to D. E. Gibson, did and as a re-
suit Billy Boles. the innocent and
unassuming gas meter inspector, was
nearly choked to death.
In the office of the Gibson Lumber
company the gas meter is situated
under one of the big safes in tho
front office. Charles office is just
to the rear with only wall between.
There was no one in the front office
when Mr.. Boles went in to read the
meter. and being Of quiet sort. he
didn't make much noise.
However. Charlie heard the stealthy
step, listened and heard deep breath
ing. He stepped to the door. saw the
dirty. overalled and bewhiskered gen.
tleman before the safe in a belligerant
attitude. He waited for nothing else.
but pounced upon the aforesaid gen.
tleman, grasped him by the throat
and slammed him to the floor, hol-
lering for help in vigorous style.
Help didn't arrive promtly. so Char
lie sat on the supposed burglar TO
await developments. A close scru-
tiny of the man on the floor showed
that he didn't look SO awful bad, after
all. When Billy got his wind he made
the proper explanations and they
called truce.
AS Billy went out the door he met
Jack Osborn. the bookkeeper, coming
in and said, Jack, that little devil you
got in their about choked me to death,
he thought was a burglar"
It's hard to figure out whether the
joke is on Billy or Charlie. Anyway.
they've both earned a raise in wages.
