When the patch is made to answer
the purpose Of permanent repair, the
warping Of the tire incident to contact

To do the best work with the churn,

not get all the butter out of the cream.

SILK THIEVES SENTENCED

j. G. Johnson told the police last
Thursday that two men had been in his
place offering to sell very cheap guam
titles of silk samples of which they eN-
hibited The men were easily found
and were put through an examination.
The men said that they had found
forty bolts of silk in an open unloaded
box car on the lake front. One Of
them, Joseph Smith, as he called him
self, was shown to be the guiding spirit
in the affair and in municipal court he
drew eighteen months at the state
prison. The other, one "Blackie" Bur
CESS, was evidently much less culpable
and was let off with a fine of 500 and
costs which he paid.
Judge Schmidt explained to them
that although the goods may have
come into their possession honestly by
finding it, the law does not give them
the right to treat it as their own and
that a crime was committed when they
converted it and tried to sell it.
The stuff was probably stolen from
a car on q ferry and put into an empty
boxcar for later recovery. Neither of
these men could be connected with the
original theft.

HELD FOR TRIAL

r. A, Meyers, yardmaster of the Chi
cago and Northwestern Railway COM
pany here last summer, was brought
from Oconto last week and arraigned
on a charge of receiving, transporting
and concealing stolen property. 1t is
charged that he handled some of the
liquor which the O'Donnell gang Of
cellar raiders stole Last fall.
Members of the gang under arrest
implicated Meyers in their confessions.
He pleaded not guilty in municipal
court last Thursday, furnished bail and
was released. At his preliminary exami-
nation on Monday he was bound over
to circuit court for trial and was re-
leased on $500 bail Gallagher and
Strum, two confessed members Of the
gang, testified for the state at the hear
ing They said that Meyers had trans
ported in a taxi, and hid in his barn on
the Calumet road, thirty-two bottles Of
wire stolen from the Richard King
iolz residence. Meyers denies knowing
that the wine was stolen. Federal Of
fcers may take hand in these mat
ters when the state gets through.

notice to this was put in the Manito-
woe papers asking for cast-otf cloth
ing, which l wanted to take with me
and distribute. There was a very lib
eral response, but as business condi-
tious changed so that it,was unneces-
sary for me to go to Europe at that
time, l sent all of the things over by
freight, and | am now getting letters
from recipients and from the people
who attended to the distribution.
find it necessary now to go to
Europe and | expect to sail on the
5 S. Rotterdam April 9, and again ap-
peal to you, as | would like to take a
lot of things with me, particularly in
fants' clothing and above all, diapers, or
discarded bed sheets and pillow slips,
which can be made over into diapers.
A friend of mine from Munich was my
guest for a few days and he reported
conditions in that part Of Germany as
very pitiable. He was on commits
sion recently that canvassed the city of
Munich and found that 40 per cent Of
the infants were lying naked in their
little cribs, most of them improvised
out of bu.,au drawers, baskets and
boxes, and that sixty per cent of the
small school children, both boys and
girls, were without shirts, having their
coats and waists buttoned up to the
neck.
May | appeal to the charitably in
clined of Manitowoc city and county
to give me all the infants clothing that
they may possibly have? Also bed
sheets and pillow slips that have been
discarded, or other material that can
be made into diapers. l shall take these
things with me as personal baggage
direct to Munich, which is my destina-
ton, and they should be in my hands
within the next two weeks.

RAISED GRAIN SLIPS

A Newton farmer had a fine get-rich
quick scheme but, as is invariably the
case with such schemes, it didn't last
long enough to make it worth while.
His plan was to raise the grain weight
checks issued to him on delivery of
grain. He is said to have worked this
game to the extent of 5000 fraudulent
gains before a check up revealed what
was going on. As was inevitable, and
should have been seen by anyone, the
slips cashed would sometimes be com
pared with the duplicates kept by the
warehouse man. The man came in and
wa$glad to have the opportunity of
disgorging the sums fraudulently ac-
quired.

TWO HOTELS PROMISED

The hotel situation acquired a new
angle last week when it was announced
that the Schuette bank interests have
decided to raze. the present Sav-
ings bank building at jay and
Eighth streets and erect a large combi-
nation bank and hotel on that site and
adjoining properties. If our count is
right that makes five hotel projects for
the city. The news of the bank-hotel
matter acme out when Mr.. Kress, of
the Association of Commerce, told the
citizens committee that the bank Off
cials authorized him to say that they
had closed negotiations with Walter
Schroeder, a hotel man of Milwaukee
and Walter Oehein, builder to erect
the new building If the Schuette in
terests have actually closed for the
building one modern hotel is assured.
There will be no doubt as to financing
the project.
The citizens committee also endorsed
the Manitou proposition, although not
passing on it as an investment. The
Manitou people say that their project
is going through and that the hotel will
be built this year, so it would ap-
pear that two hotels on Eighth street
within a short block of each other are
a possibility

CANDIDATES ISSUE PLATFORMS

Two of the candidates for mayor
came out with their pronunciamentos,
so to speak, last week. Martin Georg-
enson, third time candidate for the
Socialists, issued quite a lengthy plat
form as to the burning issues and how
he stands on them, He advocates buy
ing the gas plant if it can be secured
for reasonable price. He thinks the
high school plans are too elaborate,
wants sinking fund started to pay
for a new Eighth street bridge to be
built some time, wants economy in city
affairs, seems to favor the Stolze via
duct but opposes building it now, fav-
ors letting the shipyard use Center
street but opposes street vacations in
the abstract and fayors extending
street car lines or in lieu of that pro-
viding a substitute.
Candidate Frazier also issued his
statement of principles He mentioned
his years of business experience and
then confines himself to one issue, tax
alton. He opposes any further public
improvements not absolutely necessary
until the costs are nearer normal and
the city's financial condition better lie

George Wits, whose term as member
of the city board of education expires
this spring refuses to be a candidate
for reelection. Nominations for school
offices are made directly by petition
and are not involved in the March pri-
mary.

GANG LEADER SENTENCED

Lawrence O'Donnell, aged 27, has
been more in the Manitowoc eye than
our new president this month. Follow
ing the sensational capture of a band
of young burglars came the search for
O'Donnell, then his arrest and brilliant
escape from jail which resulted in
anti-climax of tame surrender two
days later. He pleaded not guilty IN
circuit court and his trial was set for
March 10. Last Friday he appeared
in court and pleaded guilty to four OF
nine counts in the district attorneys
information. Atty A. j. Wyseman,
appointed by the court to defend him.
presented his case to the court at some
length. He said that the others of the
gang in O'Donnelrs absence had made
him the "goat" and had tried to min
imize their offenses by laying the larg-
er part of the series of burglaries to
him. He said that the burglares were
an effort to search for booze to crafty
a deprived appetite and not money
making ventures. He pictured him as
a weakling rather than hardened
criminal
The district attorney argued for
stern "but not vindictive" penalty. The
seating capacity of the court room was
filled at which point the court stopped
it. Sentence was deferred until Mon
day when the court had O'Donnell
brought in.
He told the court that he was born
at Escanaba, Mich, and that his father
died when he was thirteen years old
and his mother a few years later He
has been considerable of a rover and
never put in much time at gainful, hon
est employment. He asked for Jail
sentence rather than prison term.
On three counts he was given eight
years in state prison with one year on
another count to run concurrently,
making the sentence really one of eight
years. He cannot be paroled for four
years and without parole may reduce
the term to about six years with all
behavior credits.
Frank Boehm, the only one of the
eight men in custody to stand pat and
demand that the state prove its case
against him had his preliminary exami-
nation in municipal court Monday
One of the O'Donnell gang, called
'Doc" Skrepinsky, took the stand
against Boehm and he was bound over
10 cifcuit court Tor triai with ban nxed
at $500. Boehm was represented by
j. J.. Healy, who did not show his hand
but waived further examination after
the states case was in. Aside from
O'Donnell and Boehm there are six
other young men awaiting sentence on
pleas of guilty, who will probably be
up for sentence this week. The munici-
pal court has authority to impose SEN
tence in states prison cases when a
plea of "guilty" is entered, but when
the plea is mot guilty" can only hold
the defendant for trial in the circuit
court.

three or four years after Mr. Plaice
and left. He first entered on prac-
tisc in Kewaunee, where he formed a
partnership with w II. Timlin, (later
Justice Timlin of the supreme court)
which existed some two or three years,
and after that with G. G. Sedgwick,
which terminated by the removal of
Mr. Sedgwick to Manitowoc in 1881.
Some time later Mr.. Manseau came to
Two Rivers and settled down to prac-
tise.
In the spring of 1898 he was elected
as county judge without opposition,
having received the Democratic nomi-
nation. He took his seat as Judge on
the January first following and for
nearly year discharged the duties
with entire satisfaction to both the bar
and the public. After that time he de-
yeloped brain disease, which compelled
his resignation and later caused his
death.
Judge Manseau was a good lawyer.
His long service as law clerk COM
bincd with his reading made solid and
sure foundation. He might strictly be
called an office lawyer, for he had not
the gift Of expressing himself in
speech. In writing on the contrary, he
cXcellcd.
He made a most excellent Judge, pa
tent in hearing matters before him,
ready and firm in decision.
He died December %, 1896.
