SAUK CENTRE MAN TOUCHED
From well founded rumors the us
ually alert and methodical A. F..
Strebel came in rather close contact
with light fngured gentleman on a
crowded street car in st. Paul Sum
day afternoon. The loss was not dis
covered until "Streb" attempted to
buy couple of tickets to Sank Cen
tre and discovered that he had been
touched" Mrs. Strebel came to the
rescue, the Herald understands.
"Streb's" well known modesty makes
him trifle reticent about discussing
the affair.

When the newly elected sheriff. Mr..
D. F. Turner, entered upon his duties
as executive officer of Vernon Parish,
he found three prisoners in his custody
at the Parish jail, and that number
was increased to five few days later
when two of his deputies cought two
fellows who had stolen an automobile
at Alexandria. Then were speedily
convicted and sentenced to expiate
their crime in prison, one of the thieves
being sent up for five years and the
other for two years. Sheriff Turner
has also caught man who is charged
with having committed forgery. The
Shemff's office has had some busy
days thus far.

first meeting and organized by electing
