SOME SKUNK DID DIRTY TRICK
Cut Electric Wiring in Dalen's Resi-
dence Making it Necessary to
Tear OFF Plaster.

Some low down two-legged skunk
perpetrated one of the dirtiest tricks
the Independent has heard of in many
"a day when he cut the electric wires
in ten or twelve places in H. 0. Dalen's
new residence on Seventh St. in East
wood Park necessitating the tearing
off of great deal of plaster from the
walls and ceiling both upstairs and
down.
The plans for the home were fur
nished by Architect Ira l.. Rush. The
wiring contract was awarded to Ko-
paid Bros The work Of wiring was
completed and the lathing was done,
when the city wiring inspector tested
the wires and found everything 0. X.
The building was then plastered and
the upstairs had been kalsomined
when last Monday it was learned that
the lights would not work. An inves-
tigation revealed that after the lath-
ing had been done, someone removed
lath here and there and cut the
wires with a Ratchet. The damage
done is considerable.
