YOU I HFUL BANDITS
| ROB MAIL TRUCK

Chicago, Jan. 1S.-F1ve youthful ban
dts held up a United States mail truck
at the union station here early to-
day escaping in an automobile with
twelve sacks of mail, ten of which
contained registered mail. Police say
that the pouches contained part of a
federal reserve bank money shipment
destined for st. Paul
The bandits surprised three postal
employees guarding the pouches, fore
ing them at the point of guns back in
to their truck while the bandit car
drew alongside and the twelve mail
bags were transferred to 1t The rob-
bers worked swiftly and the robbery
was accomplished in n few minutes
The regular mail was composed sole
ly of city collections, the police say.
The registered mail bags were supposed
to contain currency and bonds of a
value not yet estimated.
one of the postal employees said that
only few minutes after they had ar
rived at the station with their truck
the bandit car dashed up. The police
believe the robbery was an inside job
and that the bandits had knowledge
of tho bank shipment.
Thomas Carter. Richard J. Sliney and
Phillip Cahill. postal employees, said

be moro than 20 years old. all wore

so quickly that the attention of a
watchman and a railroad mall fore
man working nearby was not attract
cd until the bandit car was speeding
away with the twelve packages.
Postal authorities early today were
unable to estimate the amount of the
loot. They said the shipments to the
northwest which usually go out on the
2:3O a. m mail average about 500, 900
in value but they consolcd themselves
with the knowledge that the Tuesday
shipments are generally light
Tuesday morning shipments are al
ways light" said A z. Germer, acting
chief postal inspector. ''Of course there
arc a great many registered papers
and other documents, but not much
that could be negotiated into money.
"A week may elapse before an ac-
curate figure covering the loss can be
known. according to the postal in
spcCtors.

Licenses and Mathematics

They say that juggling figures is
something like shootins craps.
And while what they say may not
always he true, still there is some
thing interesting in tho manner in
which certain combinations OF figures
limo up on their face.
Just for instance.
Ed II. Kohoc, Chicftaiu circulator
bought n license yesterday for his Es-
sex car, and tho number he drew for
a license tag was 59iii; but worse yet
a whole lot, his engine number showed
up to be Hi4i.
Noticing that, some of tho mon in
tho office began figuring with the hE-
uro5 in tho license number that Dis
trict Judge Trimble will attach to his
car, and tho result was peculiar. The
number is 69i00. First this number is
divisiblc by 3. Then adding all tho
figures OF tho license number together
We get 10, which is also divisible by 3.
Then the year date. being 1921, is also
divisiblc by three and the figures 1921
added together totals 10.
Tho first man to get Il Pueblo coun
ty automobile license, barring tho
truck licenses, was Il. Il. Gray; his
number is 5900i.
Dr. William Hutchinson has had the
second Pueblo county license issued
for several years past. Ic was pretty
near the first man at the clerks officc
Monday morning, and got tho second
ono issued-numbcr $1,000.
Tho 500 tags that arrived Saturday
night, after having Travelled from st.
Paul to Pueblo at the rate OF four
miles an hour. arc already more than
half gone, $50 having Secn bought IN
tho two days. Monday the amount OF
money taken in at tho county clerks
office for licenses was SSS2.5O. Ycster-
day the amount of cash taken in for
licenses was St50S.A
The hiEhcst license fco paid so far
this year, was by Martin Walter, Jr.,
yesterday for his $3.50 Piorcc-Arrow;
tho foe was $3.50. Elmer Breckcn-
ridgo bought n license for a 1910 car;
ho said he thought tho state ought
to pay him something for driving u car
of so-long-lgo date.

RETAILERS MEETING
PASSES SECOND DAY

Colorado Springs. Colo. Jan. 1S.-
An effort to kill proposed the one
per cent tax on sales an organized op-
position to manufacturers who cater
to chain stores thru special prices on
discounts, a fight for better co-opera-
tio1 between retailers and whole
salers, and "a better spirit of co-opera-
tion between state and national or
ganizations were the outstanding sub
lccts of discussions at the second days
session of the Colorado retail merch-
ants association in convention here.
President Dammann of Pueblo,
took up the cudEels yesterday against
chain store discrimination. Other
speakers today Denounced the prac-
tice and saw in it danger to the in
dependent grocer. Mrs. Leon Hatten-
back, secretary of the association, led
the fight against direct tax sales, de-
claring such tax will put burden
on the retailer he will be unable to
stand. C. C. Brown of tho Univer-
sity of Colorado told the merchants
that the first step in meeting the gem
eral price decline is elimination of
waste.

LOCAL ARMS CONFERENCE

Manitowoc's own conference on
limitation of armaments will be held
on November l. 1t will be noticed
that in referring to these conferences
we respect President Harding's de-
sires that they be not referred to as
disarmament meetings, as by no con-
ceivable action can disarmament be
accomplished.
A committee of four will be named
to arrange a program and there will
also be a committee on resolutions.
At the committee meeting at which
these details were worked out the
apathy of the public to this move
ment, one Of the most important in
the worlds history, was criticised,
Rev. f. P. Keicker and Mrs. Strath-
earn made pleas for efforts to arouse
the public to the Importance of the
cause and to the advantage of get
ting a representative expression of
the community.
The resolutions adopted at the re-
cent conference were read
A determined effort will be made
to make the mass meeting a success.

CONCRETE ROADS COMPLETED

The last of the concrete for the
roadbeds of the county work for
1921 was poured last Saturday leav-
ing only some minor concrete work
for this week, which completes the
permanent surface work for the
year. Stephen Zandala completed
his big contract on route II in the
town of Newton and Young Brothers
of Oconto finished the work on the
Manitowoc-Tw Rivers road connect
ing the last link between the two
cities. In about a week all the roads
will be open for traffic.
The half or two-thirds of the Man
itowoc-Two Rivers road at the Two
Rivers end of the lake shore route
was laid some six or seven years ago.
When the contractors came to lay the
part nearer to Manitowoc it was de-
cided to eliminate two of the street
car crossings on the lake shore and
build the road rod or two further
from the possible lake encroachment.
The Traction Company took the mat
ter into court and it dragged for
years until the state Highway Com
mission re-routed the highway
straight out the Shoto road and
bought a new right of way nearly
due east to join the end of the for
mer concrete on the lake shore, thus
settling the question of lake shore
protection by avoiding about a mile
and a half of lake shore route, in
cluding all the dangerous places. The
work on this new route has dragged
for about two years until the matter
ceased to be joke. The plans south
Of the city contemplate the ultimate
hard surfacing Of route II to join
the Sheboygan county concrete.

ANOTHER LAKE SUICIDE

For the third time in six weeks a
body has been taken from the water
on the north side beach. Last Fri
day the body of Anna Cigler, aged 3S,
was taken from the water at the foot
of Buffalo street.
Miss Cigler came from the far
west recently to live with her two
brothers, Thomas and Joseph, who
live at 412 North Fifth street. She
has been in poor health. Thursday
morning she was gone from the home
but the brothers were not alarmed
until she did not return all day. The
body was found in the lake early Fri
day morning. Her purse containing
$36 and her coat were found on the
pier. 1t was clearly case of sui
eide. Her relatives said that she had
been Respondent because of her ill
health and had been brooding over
this lately.

POSTAL CLERKS 0VERWORKED

Acting Postmaster A. H. Boehr-
niger has filed a petition with the
post office department for four ad-
ditional clerks.
The petition recites that the re-
ceipts for the third quarter of last
year were $23,551 whereas this year
for the corresponding quarter the
figures are $37,280. For September
last year the figures were $8,814 and
this year $13,923.
These figures indicate that the
work at the local office has increased
enormously as the receipts Of the Of
flee are always taken as an indicator
Of the business done and the work
Of the office. On this basis the asser-
tion of Mr.. Boehringer that the pres
ent staff is not adequate is readily
believable.

REINHARDT RAHR PASSES AWAY

Reinhart Rahr, Sr., died suddenly
Tuesday afternoon at his home on
North Eighth and Park streets. He
has been suffering from minor COM
plants for few years and had been
confined to the house for the past
few days but no one suspected that
his condition was dangerous. He
had but lately returned from Ger
many and Austria where he went to
personally supervise the distribution
of supplies sent to destitute popula-
tions.
Mr.. Rahr was born at Manitowoc
81 years ago. With his brothers
William and Macmillan, Sr., he built
up the large Rahr Sons interests in
this city. At the time Of his death
he was vice president Of the Cereal
Products Company and president of
the State Bank of Manitowoc. He is
survived by his wife, two daughters,
Blanche and Margaret, and one son,
Guido, and one brother Macmillan,
Sr. and two sisters, Mrs. Edward Bor-
cherdt Of Davenport, Iowa, and Mrs
Oscar Bilharz of Baxter Springs,
Kansas.
When a young man Mr.. Rahr
mixed in public affairs and served as
mayor of the city and was assembly
man from this district in 1887. For
several decades business, travel and
philanthropy occupied all of his time
and he drew more and more unto
himself his family and a small circle
Those close to him often said that a
natural diffidence was often misun-
derstood and hid warm heart which
fact might have been evident from
the extent of his largess and tireless
efforts in relief work.
His business ability is attested by
the mammoth institution he was
largely instrumental in creating in a
strongly competitive field. The
younger generation do not know him
intimately but his old friends assure
them that a good citizen and fine
character has passed on.
The funeral will be held tomor-
row (Friday) afternoon at o'clock.
1t will be private.

EIGHTH STREET BRIDGE

1t required six weeks to get Eighth
street bridge repaired so that it could
be again opened for traffic. There
is still work to do on one of the walks
and also painting but Sunday the au-
tomobiles and street cars were going
across. The original estimates put
the work at $4,000 but it is said that
there was a lot more work to do than
was supposed after they got the lid
off.
The bridge was found to be struc-
turally sound and the silly chatter Of
lot Of people about a dangerous
ruin" and the like exhibits only their
lack Of information and Judgment.
The planking will wear out in the
course of months and during the few
hours necessary to replace it Choir
us will go up over poor old Eighth
street bridge out of commission
again" 1t made the late L. K. PITT, a
bridge engineer in the first class, an
cry to hear the silly prattle about
the need Of a new bridge at Eighth
street on safety grounds.
