Night Policeman and Albright Light
Needed at st. Paul

The ST. Paul Messenger last week
tells of the Howard grocery of that
town being entered Monday night of
last week and the cash register, con-
tanning between SO and $40, being
taken. Entrance was effected by
breaking the glass in the front door.
A buggy was tracked some distance
Tuesday morning and the register
minus the money, was found about
8 miles west of town. Nothing else
was missed. The Messenger recalls
that another store was entered by
thieves through the front door not
many months ago and that hole
was cut through the walls of Mr.
Geo. Coles stables and a horse rid
den out twice within a month. Cit
ing these incidents, The Messenger
argues that St. Paul needs a night
Waterman and all-night lights. One
policeman stays on duty all day and
as far into the night as he can, and
the electric lights are en- about half
the night. The other part of the
night the town is without police pro-
lection or the protection Of lights
ard light is your best policeman.

At the Movies
The Pastime theatre offers today
two episodes Of "Pearl of the Army
featuring Pearl White, and "The Girl
From Frisco, making a 6 reel show
for New Year. The first episode Of
Pearl of the Army" arrived late last
week and many who really desired to
see the picture did not see it on
that account. It is repeated today
with the second episode so that
everybody may see the beginning of
this interesting picture. "The Girl
From Frisco" is one of the best 2
reel pictures to be seen anywhere.
Tomorrow "The Flower of Faith" a
5-reel feature Of great beauty will
be run in connection with "The
Shielding Shadow.
"War's Women" is the special at
traction at the Lyric Wednesday and
Thursday. This is said to be one of
the greatest PICTURES ever produced.
It is claimed for it that it "hits hard
er than the Birth of Nation. On
account of this special picture Glib
erty" will be shown at the Lyric on
Tuesday this week.
