CITIES UP, FARMS DOWN

Despite decrease in values in all the
towns, excepting only the town of
Manitowoc, the assessed value of the
county has increased over a million
dollars over year ago The valuation
of the town Of Manitow0c is due to in
crcases Of property just outside the
city limits, suburban properties, large
ly from building operations. The total
shows increases of S2,2lO,930 with re
ductions in the towns Of S9ilG07
leaving a net gain way over a million
dollars. The town losses are, of course,
due TO a recession from the peal, prices
of farm lands Of a few years ngo.
The city of Two Rivers shows q big
increase jumping from STsGs,li5 in
1920 to S0,25T510 this year. The other
cities and villages show increases. Man
ilowoc city Is assessed at S2ll23,jSG,
which Is SG70,s35 more than last year.
The figures do not include Naldcrs

BOY KILLED AT TWO RIVERS

One of those occurrences that make
one wonder why they happen was the
sudden death under an automobile of a
lad hurrying home on the first day of
school to tell his mother he had been
promoted to the second grade. 1t oc-
Cured on the bridge over the Eastwin
river at Two Rivers Monday. The lit
tie fellow, Elmer Jaeckel in his hurry
and after pausing to permit one car to
pass suddenly stepped off the walk
onto the driveway directly in front of
a car driven by John O'Toole of Chi
cago. The O'Toole party were on the
way to Sturgeon Bay where they were
to spend three weeks. The boy was
dead when he reached a doctors of
fee. The driver accompanied Chief
of Police Schroeder to Manitowoc to
see the district attorney and the party
was permitted to proceed on its jour
ney. The boy was the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Ferdinand Jaeckel, former resi-
dents of Manitowoc.

CHAIN STORES MULTIPLY

tenn, a company operating chain of
5, 10, 25 and so cent stores, were in
the city last week negotiating for a
location for store, The company has
stores in all the larger towns in Wis
cOnsin.
Another chain tea, store has leased
the former Klingholz wholesale liquor
site on Jay street and the local man
ger says that two more tea stores will
be opened in the city.
Another System" of chain groceries
operating on the cooperative plan is
organizing the city, so that all in all
Manitowoc appears to be in the way Of
having enough chain systems to satisfy
the demand soon, with all these new
links added to existing chains.

MOONSHINE VICTIMS

Those who claim that there is more
drunkenness than before the prohibi-
tion era are not borne out by the facts
| of arrests for drunkenness. The drunks
may be worse than they were and there
may be more under cover than former
! ly, but it is fact that it was a bit un-
usual to see four d.. and d's up in
municipal court Tuesday morning.
| This would have been a small gather
ing in the good old days" after holi-
day, and it was the largest bunch in
many months. Henry Juenger and
Stanley Jyransky were picked up on
North Eighth street after having prob
ably gazed too long upon the moon
when it was red. Each was trying at
last reports to get in communication
with friend who would put up $I3.26,
the price of their liberation.
1t was about the same tale in the
cases of Leonard Frosch and Ernest
NandroSke who in some manner, which
they did not reveal, had succeeded in
acquiring enough white mule to put
them into a condition of utter diSre-
gard of consequences in a Washington
street saloon. FroSch dug up the
necessary Sll.26 and his companion at
last reports was earnestly inquiring for
a friend in need with a like sum to
spare.
Assistant Chief Ladwig thought that
William Collins was not properly OBJ
serving the etiquette that is called for
on North Eighth street Tuesday even
ing, and Judge Schmidt being of the
same opinion from hearsay in court
Wednesday morning directed William
to contribute $I0S6 which he forth
with did and departed
Fred Krinke, a guest of our city,
also procured quantity of what
passes in these days for whisky and
proceeded to enjoy himself in his own
quiet way. No rough house stuff for
him. When he felt the desire for re
post, which accompanies the indul-
gence he repaired to a secluded part of
the railroad yards at the lake front and
proceeded to make himself comfort
able upon a few soft hemlock ties with
his neck resting on a steel rail. By
accident the switching crews did not
move a train of cars that would have
served admirably as a guillotine. A
policeman discovered that Fred was in
such a deep state of coma that heroic
Efforts were necessary to get him suf-
fciently quickened to enable him to be
helped aboard the departments limou-
sine He said Wednesday morning that
a bed would have cost considerably less
than the $lO.SG which the court
thought TO be about right.
