KNOCKED DOWN
BY MOTORIST

Two Newport policemen
were knocked down and dis
abled under cover of darkness
Monday night while at their
post of duty.
There is no clue to the per
petrator of the outrage at
the corner of Third and Pleas
ant streets, but it is under
stood that the encounter be
tween new Buick car and
the "silent policeman" on East
Main Street. resulted in pretty
nearly demolishing the auto
mobile, while $25 will be re-
quired to put the silent po-
liceman back on duty
The Pleasant Street officer

bent and twisted is the stand
ard.
The silent policemen are
lighted from the Electric
Light Plant and many of the
lights were out of commission
during the high wind of the
evening so that autoists should
have driven very slowly and
been doubly careful. The
damage to the two posts is at
least $50.
