BOOZE RUNNER
GETS STIFF FINE
Says NAY, Nay Pauline"
When Court Hands
Out Sentence.
FIVE HUNDRED BONES
Judge Says or -Four Months
Advising Carey Our
Climate Is Good.

The first spring bootlegger, Joseph
Carey of Chicago, who was nabbed Fri
day afternoon by Deputy Sheriff Ste
ven Robinson, got his second surprise
at the hands of Judge Slater in the
municipal court late in the afternoon.
Carey pleaded guilty to transporting
booze in Ford coupe.
Give hundred dollars and costs, -
said Judge Slater.
And the first spring bootlegger
turned green, the pale green of young
grass, and he dropped back against the
counsellor's table with stagger, his
hand to his brow. He was speechless
for five minutes.
Awful to Be Caught.
There was no evidence to show that
Carey had not been booze-running
through Kenosha undisturbed for the
last three months. During that time
the speed-cops for both city and coun-
ty have been alternating more or less.
The roads have been too rough even
for speeders, and the police and sher-
ifs officer have employed their men
in general patrol and Office duty.
And wouldn't it be tough luck if a
man had been running peacefully
through the city ever and anon through
blizzard and through snow, only to be
snapped up for fish on the first fine
sunshiny day of the year?
Had 1t for His Cottage.

Judge Slater, he made no effort to deny
his guilt. Caught with the goods on
him, with the alcohol in his car, the
car running and himself at the wheel,
there was nothing to do but admit
transportation of Intoxicating liquor,
and Carey admitted it.
"What did you have this stuff for ?"
asked Judge Slater.
ooh, just for myself" replied Carey,
"for a few drinks"
"How much was there 2" the judge
asked of the sheriff.
Thirty pint bottles" said Sheriff
Pabst.
"You must drink pretty often" said
the judge to the defendant.
wen, we nave a COGCdSS III M1CHl-
gan," Carey replied, "and we need a
little there"
cts colder IN Michigan" said the
judge. "You ought to stop when you're
in a good place, good climate, like this.
On your plea of guilty the court finds
you guilty, and the judgment and SEN
tence of the court is that you pay fine
of $500 and costs or four months in the
county Jail"
When Carey turned the color of pale
seaweed, the captain of police, who was
present, tried to help out.
Carey said that his Ford coupe was
worth about $500, and there was
mortgage of 500 on that. He was ad-
vised that his car. was confscated by
the court in addition to the payment
of fine.
He stood as if neither east, west,
north or south held any possibilities
for him.
81 tell you what you do" said Cap
tain Clausen, "call up the people who
sold you the booze, and they will gladly
come down and pay the fine for you'll"

Frank Valentine Played
Hockey to Get Back His
Stolen Bike.
THIEF IS ARRESTED
Paul Walter Who Admits Theft
of Bike Was Visiting
District Attorney.

Every schoolboy swinging his bag
of books by strap thought longing of
running water and fishing hooks this
morning as he trudned to school, but
there was not one of them that had as
good an excuse to play hockey as
Frank Valentine of 343 Middle street.
Frank is II year old schooIboy and
his bicycle was stolen last Sunday. The
circumstance had eaten into his Sc
renity, and geography lessons and
arithmetic problems were as nothing
compared with the big question: "Who
is the guy who stole my bike? ?"
So He Skipped School.
Frank duly reported the matter to
the police, and inquired every day about
the progress of his case. This morn
ing when the day dawned bright and
fair, and the sun shone. and still no
bicycle was forthcoming, Frank decid-
his own hands, become his own detec-
tive and recover his bicycle.
So as Valentines secret service in
corporated, successor to Sherlock
Holmes and Scotland Yards, he set
forth alone. It was a busy morning
running around to the various places
where bicycles are parked outside of
buildings, and after working until
nearly IL o'clock, the boy almost gave
up hope. Just then, as he was coming
through Main street, he plucked up
heart.
Young Detective Has Luck.
There was his own bicycle, standing
against the curb on Main street, north
Of the First National bank on the west
side Of the street. Frank lost no time
in beating it over to the police station
and telling Sergeant Melbusch at the
desk of his discovery.
The sergeant believed the boy, and
put on his hat and coat to accompany
him. There was the bicycle sure
ment, it was standing just outside the
door leading to the office of District
Attorney Morris Barnett.
Capture the Thief.
Melbusch waited discreetly in a
doorway, and Frank, with a beating
heart, waited beside him. Presently a
youth came tripping down the stairs
of 165 Main street, and hoped upon
the bicycle which Frank said was his
own. Melbusch fastened after and
caught the youth and the bicycle too.
The bicyclist tried to shake off the
sergeant but the sergeant was bigger
and held on. Sergeant, bicycle, Frank
and the strange youth all went back to
the police station.
Paul Walter, age Is, 831 Hastings
avenue, was the youth who, upon his
own admission had stolen the bicycle
He told the officers that he stole it on
the Burlington Road last Sunday af-
ternoon. He had been called to the
district attorneys office this morning
on another matter and boldly took the
bicycle with him. He was kept at the
police station all morning while the
police questioned him on connection
with the theft of the lads bicycle.
and also in connection with other af-
fairs.
Walter will be arraigned in NUM-
cipal court some time this afternoon.
Meanwhile Lieut.. Rock of the detec-
tive squad is seriously thinking of an
nexing Frank for an aid to his de-
partment, for like the recent applicant
to the detective branch, who hailed
from Racine, the little fellow "may be
small but he is strong"
