New Richmond's First Victory

The River Falls Horseshoe Club

Thursday evening at New Richmond.
Several of the regulars" We're out

for much, but those who witnessed
the battle claim that the New Rich

that it would have taken a bunch of
sharks to beat them.
The River Falls bunch went into de-
feat so thoroughly that by winning
just this one game out of the sea-
sons series of five New Richmond
now has a higher total for the series,
the totals for the games played be.

When they got there Joe tried

He remembered he had y locked ii,

asked his father to give him the

hurry that he unlocked 1t himself.
They walked on tiptoe. Joe was
a little bit afraid and he crept along

The policeman had a strong flash,

heard noise behind them. They
thought it was Joe's father who had
just moment before. gone over to
the safe to see il it had been
robbed, But, to their establishment,
it was not.
Joe did not know who 1t was, but
tile policeman recognized him as
the man for whom he had been
hunting, and he had a gun on them.
Joe's father stepped up behind
the rObber just then and put his
hand to his lips so that neither the
policeman nor Joe would speak.
and grabbed the gun out of the
mans hand, who was so surprised
at hearing third man come in
that his fingers relaxed their hold
on his gun, so that Joe's father
could easily take it away
In second the policeman had
clapped handouts over the rob
ber's hands. AT last we have you,
and this little fellow here may re-
ceive $500 as a reward.
Joe received this after the trial
and conviction of the robber, Hans
Kraugenspieler.
Later he received a check for $50

Once uron a time a dog said. II

A cat came up to him adm said,
I'm hungry. I'm so hungry that ii
makes me think OF the starving
people in the old country,
The dog said, Il have not any
thing for you, but if you will go
with me to the woods, will hunt
something for YOU"
So they went to the woods and
the dog scratched in a little chunk
Of wood, and a mouse jumped out
and the cat caught it. He scratched
again and a mountain boomer
jumped out. The cat caught 1t and
ate it up. She said that was
enough.
When they got back home, the
little dog said, ooh, l left my

As luck would have it he found

Little Joe was out on his way

not see his father in the lobby.

LITTLE JOSEPH'S SCARE

| Once upon a time when JOSEPH
was little boy, his father was {
very wealthy man. He owned man!
properties and, among them. 6
garage. He was training Joe to be
skilled automobile mechanic AND
an efficient business manager.
1t was a cold winter night when
Joe got his scare. 1t was not the
first time his father had left him
to take care of the garage, but it
was the first time he had ever left
| him to take care of the garage by
himself Always before, Tony, the
| radiator man, or some of the me-
chanics, had been there working,
but this time he was entirely alone.
His father would not have left him
by himself if he could have helped
it, but he had some important bus
mess and so it happened that Joe
was alone.
Joe was not a bit afraid at first,
but when he got in the office where
there was nobody to keep him COM
pany, then he began to feel afraid.
A moment ago the machines were
passing quite frequently. but now
there was not machine, as far as
Joe could see up and down the
main street.
All of a sudden he heard a noise.
At first he didn't know what the
noise was, but he listened real
closely and it seemed to him that
he heard footsteps. They seemed
to come from first one direction
and then from another When the
sounds came quite close, Joe ner-
vously looked up, and, in his fear,
could make out the form of a man
about ten yards away from him.
When the man saw that Joe had
spied him, he made a dash for the
other side of the garage and hid
under the big maroon Locomobile
which had just driven in from a
neighbOring state that afternoon.
Little Joe began to gather his
wits about him. He decided that
the best thing to do was to begin
Whistling well-known song and to
make for the Parts department in
the other side of the garage. As he
followed this quickly-made plan, he
stopped before the door of the
garage, opened it and went out into
the bitter cold night without his
coat or hat on, and began to think
again.
He knew that the man could not
get into the cash register, for it
was locked and he knew the tires
were chained and the Parts depart
ment door was locked and if he
should close the door through
which he had just come out, it
would lock securely as it was fas-
tened with a spring lock and the
man would be prisoner until some
body came. He carried out this
thought about as quickly as it
came to his mind. He shut the
door and tried it to see if it was Sc
curely closed so that the man. who
ever lie was. could not get out.

HEAR CASE ON
 COMPENSATION

The case of Peter Mason, claimant, against Mrs. J. J. Alexandre, employ CT, and the Ocean Accident and Guaranty company, insurer, was heard yesterday before the Supreme Court of Errors, brought on a reser- vation from Superior court. The de- ceased was employed on the Alex andre estate in Stamford, on duty practically 24 hours of the day. Late in January he suffered an injury to his hand while shoveling coal.
 An infection set in, causing his con- f1nement in a hospital from February 10 to 27, when he returned to duty. He was still being treated three times a week by pr. Hertzberg, Stamford Monday, March 8, following severe storm, he was compelled to walk to the doctors, all public utility traffic being at a standstill following the blizzard. To shorten his walk nearly a mile he crossed the railroad tracks, was struck by a train and killed.
 Compensation Commissioner E. T. Buckingham awarded one-haf his salary for 312 weeks. The employer and the insurance company have con tended that he was not on business for Mrs. AleXandre when killed The commissioner ruled that having been injured at work, having been ordered to report for a dressing of his injured being available, lie was within his rights in reaching the doctor in any way that he thought best. He crossed the tracks at a place commonly used for a crossing. There is no precedent and for this reason the case is being watched with unusual interest.
