NO PLACE FOR HIM

Rochester, N. Y.-William Shake
speare, aged 80 years, no home, dis
covered there was nothing in home
when he applied for enlistment at the
local recruiting Office of the United
States Marine corps.
!!Prithee, kind sir, l beg little
nourishment at the indulgent hands
of Uncle Sam, cen though 1 must
enlist. For three long and weary
days have l trod yon stretch of rail
road track and I amy greivousl
hungry" he told Sargent George s.
Fynmore, local recruiter for marines.
"Avaunt caitiff," Fynmore replied,
easily drifting into blankest verse.
THE United States Marine corps is
no place for thee. We wouldst have
sleek rounded men that sleep O.
nights and work by day Thou APP
pearest to me as glorified string
pole weighing 80 pounds for thy six
feet of length. Also thou art Rum s
rowing rambler and am aweary of
your presence. Out upon thee. Get
thee gone"
The would-be recruit with the
poetic "monacker" refused to leave
the recruiting station, insisting that
he desired to serve his country and
be fed, but, when the alternative of
serving Monroe county for 80 days
was brought to his attention, he con-
cluded discretion the better part of
valor," and went away.

came out another man went in, car
rying two bottles of beer. (Boise is
a wet town. The officers entered
and arrested Mrs. Murphy and her
grown daughter, the latter being in
bed and feigning Hines. Following
into the kitchen, the officers found
the two bottles of beer. Attracted by
half open door, one of them opened
1t and found it opened into the bath
room and standing inside was the
man who entered with the beer. Seiz-
ing him by the ear the officer led him
out into the room and demanded to
know what he was doing there. Mrs.
Murphy asked why they were arrested
and was told she would find out
when they got to the police station.
She plead with them not to take her
daughter as she was Ill, but they re-
quired her to dress and accompany
them, at / o'clock Sunday morning,
to the police station where they were
charged with conducting a nuisance.
The man offered no explanation of
his presence in the house and the
case was set for trial.
At the trial the officers stated their
case, but admitted that they did not
know who had sinned if at all. They
thought they had see something
through the window and the vines
and the screen and the curtains.
The defense showed that the
daughter had been ill for three days
and was recovering. She had job
in candy factory, and her mother
worked for a living. The neighbors
testified to their good character. The
man who had brought the beer stated
that he had been a boarder there
some time before, and knew them
well, and knew the house well. He
and the other man had been there
for supper and had arranged to come
again for Sunday dinner. The other
fellow was a beau and the fiancee of
the young woman. He worked nights.
up to IL o'clock, and had engaged
at supper time to return just after
midnight and see how his sweetheart
was getting along.
The man who brought the beer ar
rived as he was leaving and being
accustomed to the house, walked into
the kitchen to put the beer away for
the Sunday dinner. AS he was doing
this, the officers came in and not
understanding what was up. he step
ped into the bath room and waited.
The next moment an officer grabbed
him by the ear and let him by it.
He did not think it worth while to
make any explanation to one who
would act that way. The case was
dismissed.
Two of the sleuths when asked
why they engaged in that kind of
work stated under oath that they
engaged in it from sense of duty,
but admitted that they expected to
be paid for it.

BOISE STILL
BOILING

AS stated recently, there is some
thing carrying on down at Boise. One
half of the people are wondering
what the other half are doing and
how they are living. The city gov
eminent has power to employ sleuths
to go about raiding places where
crimes are being committed, and here
is sample of how they exercise this
right.
A couple of the special police Of
ficers sent out to watch a certain
house one night, discovered some
thing suspicious to their minds about
the residence of one Mrs. Murphy.
Her house set back 20 feet from the
pavement, had porch at the front,
1t was screened in and there were
vines growing on the screen in front
of the front window. There were
curtains at the window, and there
was shade nailed up at the top
and not coming down quite to the
bottom OF the window. Through the
opening, and through the curtains
and the screen and the vines, from
the pavement they saw forms within
the room and decided to keep an
eye on the place. Waiting some three
hours, at midnight man entered
and came out in 20 minutes. The
front door had been open all the
evening and was still open. As he

As she entered, quickly she selected
one of the trunks whose contents were
more smart than the rest, and laid the
gowns out most fetchingly about the
room.
In the office Of the hotel few mo-
ments later the naturalist entered. He
looked about curiously. then went over
to the desk and glanced over the reg
lister. At the name Madame Larenz,
Paris. Room 90" he paused.
For some seconds he stood thinking.
Then he deliberately walked over to a
leather chair and took a prominent
seat near by in the lobby. He had dis
carded his net, but still had the case,
which now he had showed into his
pocket. From a table he picked up
newspaper.
It was not long before Del Mar
pulled up before the hotel and entered
in his usual swagger manner. He
had returned to the bungalow, read
the note, and hurried over to the st.
German.
He crossed the lobby, back to the
Office AS he did SO the naturalist had
his face hidden deeply in the open
newspaper. But no sooner had Del
Mar passed than the newspaper fell
unappreciated, and he gazed after him.
as he left the lobby by the back way
It was only a few minutes after she
had completed arranging her small
stock SO that it looked quite impress

knock at the door and recognized De-

door and he strobe In.

Outside, Elaine drove up to thu
rather garish entrance Of the st. Ger
main, and one of the boys in uni
form ran forward to open the doc
and take charge of the car. She. toe
crossed the lobby without seeing tn
old naturalist, though nothing escapes
him.
As she passed he started to rise ant
cross toward her, then appeared t
change his mind.
Elaine went on out through the bacl
of the lobby, directed by a boy, an
mounted a fight of stairs in prefer
ence to taking the lift to the SECOND
or sort of mezzanine floor. Dow
along the corridor she went, huntin
