IN MUNICIPAL COURT

Henry Koopman of Collins and
Frank INLAND of the town Of Rapids
were dipping suckers out of the river
with a net Monday. This proceeding
is permitted by the law, but the fishers
got some fine pickerel mixed up with
rough fish. Koopman got two and Mi
land FIVE Their duty in the premises
was to throw the pickerel back in the
water but they both decided to take a
chance and lost.
The game warden found them with
the evidence Of their violations in their
bags and they not only lost the pick
erel but each paid ten dollars for each
pckerel in municipal court Tuesday
morning
Monday was pay day for Fred Kohl
mycr. That evening about IL o'clock
neighbors on Franklin street asked the
police to get to the kOhlmyer place
quick and stop the massacre that wa,
apparently taking place. Out of tn,
welter Of conflicting rccollections 1
seems that Kohlmyer put his beloved
spouse down for the count whercupor
his two sons engaged the victor in bat
tie. In the general confusion what wa
left of the $40 he had given the VIII,
vanished.
kohlmyer told the court that h,
hadn't taken drop and he claimed
that the wife fainting was not causeC
by violence. The rest of the family
and officer Dufck said he was drunk
that his breath smeled like regular

the story short, 30 days.

ANENT ROADW0RK

County Highway Commissioner Jos.
Connell has given out the following
statement regarding road construction
for the season of 1922:
In answer to various inquiries as to
the amount of road construction for
the season of 1922 in Manitowoc coun-
ty, the following statement may be of
interest to many persons: Funds avail
able from state, $15,54003; funds
available from county, $14,763,04; ;
funds available from town, S12,432 O4 ;
total, S42,735.II.
OF this total the sum of Sl6,335 was
used during the 1921 season for emer-
gcncy bridges, leaving a balance of
about $4,000 for the construction of
roads and bridges in 1922 in the fol-
lowing towns:
Cato 1920; | mile of gravel road
on state trunk highway No Sc, and
two culverts on state trunk highway
No. IS.
Cooperstown- $4,000: One culvert
on state trunk highway No. l6.
Centerville- S6,225: Two miles of
gravel road with culverts on state
trunk highway No. II.
Eaton-S3,O One mile of gravel
road on state trunk highway No. Sc.
Newton $4,000: Two culverts, one
mile gravel road, relocation on Green
Bay road.
Manitowoc Rapids $4,000: One
bridge; one mile relocation on Green
Bay road.
Rockland-S Si,1OS; Gravel road south
and west of collins.
Frankln-S775; Two culverts, one
at Kellnersyille and one south end of
county patrol No 10,
The approximate cost of construc-
tion of one mile of macadam road
would be $4,000, or seven miles per
year as we have 23i miles of state and
county highways under our present
system. 1t would, therefore, take thir-
ty-three years to complete construc-
tion.
Funds available for maintaining 245
miles Of state and county patrol roads
received from state for auto license
funds, $4,000; appropriated by coun-
tN $4,000; total, S62 1000; less patrol
mems salaries, $4,000, leaves a bal
ance of $4,000 This balance is used
for the purchase Of, the crushing and
delivering of gravel; for scarifying and
grading on the 245 miles of state and
county trunk highways in Manitowoc
county, which would mean approx
mately cost of Sll0 per mile.
From the foregoing information II
would seem that a more extensive and
uniform system of road building
should be worked out and put into
operation in the near future. Sucl
system should be outlined so that ou,
highways would be properly graded
ditched and surfaced with gravel O,
cement.

On Saturday last a heavy gale of
wind sprung up from the northeast,
and at night it commenced showing,
and the wind blowing very hard, which
continued until late Sunday afternoon,
covered the ground to a depth of four
inches, the thermometer marking the
temperature at 2S degrees. March has
certainly kept up its reputation this
year, going out like lion. Monday
turned out to be pleasant day, and
the warm sun sadly interfered with
the ingling of the merry sleigh bells"
