ONCE AGAIN
Threatening Note Found on
Vending Machine at
City Hall.

Peanut politics held sway in lit
eral sense today at the city. hall.
Temporarily relegated to the dark.
ness following Lew Shank's theme
Of the sack of peanuts Senator
James e. Watson said would content
the farmers, the noble peanut today
once more was back in the political
limelight.
1t appeared that a patron Of the
penny peanut machine on the Sec
ond floor was dissatisfied, malcon-
tent and unhappy with his wares.
For, pasted on the machine. was
the typewriter message:
This machine lie not fair. You
had better fix it to deliver l cents
worth or all your business will go
to the stand downstairs"
The threat referred to a hot pea
nut stand on the lunch counter in
'ront Of the bronze memorial tablet
Of dedication Of the municipal build
ing on the first floor.
The notice did not mention the
fact that the downstairs peanuts are
hot while the variety tina flourishes
a higher altitude are a bit frigid.
In some quarters, the ominous
warning was construed at yelled crit
icism at tho studding of the Hobbies
with vending machines Of many
types.
For instance, neighbor of the alti-
tudinous peanut machine under the
marble and onyx pillars is the cele-
brated Dime Dinner Contrivance,
which dispenses cake and candy
when it works.
Descending the stairs to the first
floor, one finds a twin Of the dinner
machine nesting under marble
panels while across the lobby is a
truly aristocraitc peanut machine.
This de luxe mechanism for a
mere penny emits candied peanuts
of a reddish hue.
At its side and in strict equality
of position is one of the garden
variety Of ball chewing gum MA
chimes, with all the lure of vari-
coiored balls.
For the truly hungry, the regular
city hall stand dispenses food to
nearly the extent of table d'hote

citizens into frenzy Of expectancy

The killing was the eighth direct

Adams is alleged to have been
aligned with the Shelton gang and
to have long been marked for death
