CITY SUES CONTRACTORS

Last week an action was commenced
by the city against McMullen & PITT
for S6,062O6 being the amount it cost
to repair the water main that crosses
the river at Ninth street. In driving
piles for the temporary pontoon at
Ninth street last spring, one of the
piles struck and broke the water main.
The contractors doing the work were
engaged to repair the damage with the
understanding that the fault causing
the damage would be placed later. The
bill came to S6,062 .06 and this suit is
now commenced for the purpose of fix
ing the blame for the damage on the
contractors So far as the facts have
been made public the issue seems to be
whether the city engineer is right when
he says that if the contractors had
driven the piles at the points he indi-
Gated they would not have hit the
water pipe. They on the contrary as
sert that they did drive where directed
and in doing so hit the main. The mat
ter will doubtless he on trial at the
January term of circuit court.

HIGH PRICED WATER

According to a story current last
week, and apparently reliable, Mani
towoc man paid $1,000 in cash for
three casks ef good old Lake Michigan
under the belief that he was buying
whisky. A city "slicker" opened nego-
tiationS for the sale to the local man
who wanted "home supply" He
couldn't want it for anything else be-
cause the sale provision of the Vol
stead act is rigidly enforced in Manito-
woe; if you don't care what you say.
Obeying instructions the victim with
two friends went to a grove south of
the city about midnight and with a
rubber tube sampled the spirits, 1t was
good, prime stuff They paid the con-
sideration in cash and carted the casks
home. Desiring another drink they
tapped one of the casks and secured a
drink of H2O. The casks were full of
water. The owner of the water can
hardly appeal to the authorities as he
was engaging in an illegal act when he
tried to buy the whisky.
Despite the publicity of this conf
dence game somebody will fall to the
same thing again soon. There's one
born every minute.

BUTTER, SOAP AND CIGARETTES

Burglars entered the warehouse of
Ozga & Bonk, grocers at Sixteenth and
Hamilton streets, Sunday night. From
the varied assortment of goods to
choose from they selected butter, soap
and cigarettes. Thrifty burglars these.
The police were duly notified" of the
dastardly crime. Doubtless the Sher-
lock of the department Immediately
made his deductions. They were not
hoboes. The soap eliminates them. The
butter suggests some one who has
grown desperate over eating one of
the many cocoanut substitutes which
he has to color to a beautiful golden
tint by means of a capsule which he
pricks with the carving fork, getting
most of it on his fingers. Search for
fingers with yellow stains. But the Gig
arettes also furnish yellow stains and,
deplorable as it may be, ting cigarette
smoker is legion these dayss4he brand
of cigarettes chosen may throw some
light on the subject. If they chose one
particular kind which we win not men
tion scare may proftably be made at
the county hospital for the insane near
by.
Unti the data is more complete we
will have to let Mr.. Ozda and Mr..
Bonk, not to mention the department
sleuth, be content with these tips:
Soap indicates toll begrimed hands,
Butter shows a man accustomed to
priceless luxuries long denied.
Cigarettes indicate soft collars, cuffed
trousers, and coat with a belt up un-
der the arms. It's easy when one knows
how.
