EMPTY PURSES

A gang of pickpockets was very eyi-
IDENTITY following the L. 5. naval eXhi-
hition that showed in Manitowoc last
week They cleaned up a lot of bur
glars at Green Bay and the next day
here they searched at least six of our
citizens. Several losses we're reported
to the police, for what reason has not
been stated. Two empty wallets were
found near where the submarine was
moored and a vigorous search for more
empty pocket-b0oks was rewarded by
the triumphant finding of three more.
An "investigation" for the finding of
more empty feathers should have been
"institutcd." 1t would be a shame and
reproach to the enforcement of law
and order in our city if there are any
empty pocket-hooks unbound on the
lake front. 1t was solemnly given out
to the public that all the wallets found
had been rihed. The Green Bay au-
thorities were severely taken to task
for not warning our department of the
operations of the gang there. If our
men had only had warning in time they
might have found as many as eight or
ten empty feathers.

DRY DRUNKS

With nationwide prohibition in force
William Barkie leaped through a win
dow at the kewaunee House Sunday to
escape from the pink lizards and sky
blue apes that were chasing him
around. 1t took four men to hold him
until the police patrol could get there
and his capt0rs asserted that prohibi-
tion seemed to make man extremely
powerful. Barkie paid $40 and costs
for being drunk. Officially he is pre-
sumed to have had supply purchased
before July lst because nobody would
entertain suspicion that intoXicants
can be purchased in Manitowoc con
trary to law. 1t is said that Federal
officers. not being acquainted with our
law-abiding citizenship, may come here
presently and look into the matter

CITY OFFICERS AWAY

Unless one read of it in the news
paper he would hardly be aware that
the city is jogging along part of this
week without any local government.
Most of the important city officers are
at the annual meeting ofthe Wisconsin
League of Municipalities, in session at
Kcnosha. The mayor, city attorney
city clerk, city engineer street com
missioner, seaer, and Aldermen Me
Keough, O'DonnelI, Thompson, Holly,
Vogel and Wcrgin, are all at the meet
ing.
Fire Chief Kratz is also in attend
ance at the fremen's state meeting
which meets at The same time and
place.
The town will probably continue
moving during their absence on the
momentum given while they were here
The league meetings are not social
events but are the occasion for many
fine papers, discussions and exchanges
of ideas ON problems the cities all have
in common and furnish fine oppor-
tunily for a serious minded city official
TO increase his usefulness.

ITEMS FROM THE PILOT FILES
FIFTY YEARS AGO

We had a call a day or two since
from Mr. Jere Crowley, an old Wiscon-
sin editor, and lately of the Manitowoc
Pilot Mr.. Crowley has been afflicted
with disease of the lungs for nearly
three years, and has been stopping
with his relative, Mr.. John s. johnson,
one mile south of the village, for three
or four weeks, hoping that change of
air away from the rough blast of Lake
Michigan might prove beneficial. We
are glad to learn that through the kind
nursing of Mr.. and Mrs. Johnson, Mr..
c. is improving slowly, and we hope he
will leave Omro with recovered health.
The above is from the Omro Union,
Aug. 6, and we hope that he will not
leave Omro as long as he continues to
improve. Jerre! You recoIlect our
parting advice?

MORE ABOUT DINNERS

There has not been much doing the
past week in the city's campaign
against glaring headlights on automo-
biles.
Albert Post, who pleaded not guilty
to violation of the dmming ordinance
was in courf lasl Tuesday aud upon
motion of the city attorney the case
against him was dismissed. 1t deyel-
oped that although he did not have a
DINNER on his lights he was using a
widely advertised lens that difuSes the
light rays and eliminates the worst of
the glare Cars using this lens or lenses
effecting the same result are immune
from prosecution. advertising rates

The case of Herman LEM came up
Friday. He had no patent diiiuSing
glass but stubbornly insisted that his
light was not glaring. Six expert
witnesses verified this and the city had
only Officer Healy who had made the
arrest, brother of the opposing law

The jury returned verdict of mot

these seIf-sufricient individuals who
deem it an insult to ask persons Of
their importance and wisdom to obey
the law are encouraged to go into
court and fight the city.

south and Officer Dueno headed him
off. Now it is law that you can beat
