MANY RUM0RS AFLOAT
One il to Eject Citizen Tore Down
American Flag.

Despite the appeals Of Pres't VIII
son, the urgings of Mayor Keller

That a merchant in town known
10 be OF German lineage and a
staunch support of the kaiser. had
torn down an American flag from
i'm front of his place of business and
had torn it to shreds, was ore of the
reports circulated.

fused 10 fly an American flag, al
though his neighbors all displayed
one i'm answer 10 the appeal of
Mayor Keller. While the man was
out Tuesday afternoon, so the re-
port says. some one hOisted a flag
over the shop. When the proprietor
returned he angrily tore it from its
fastenings Police heard the rumor
but said Wednesday that they had
made no arrests in the case.
Another report which was making
the rounds Wednesday was that a
west side citizen was displaying a
yellow flag in front Of his place of
business instead of the stars and
stripes.
