 Roper, after being warned that anything he said might be used against him in superior court, re- piled: That's just why l want to say something" He was not feeling well yesterday after two weeks of heavy drinking, he said, and as he went through Main street about 5 o'clock in the afternoon Davis called to him and asked whether or not he piled that he had not had one since day before. Asked if he wanted a drink, he replied: Sure" Davis then told him there was a fellow in the blacksmith shop with all kinds of money" and to go Up Main street, up Lafayette and through the yards to the blacksmith shop. He did so and on arriving at the shop drinks were served.
 "A fellow who hangs around restaurant and a woman who is around town drinking were in there for half an hour or more and had some drinks. and I had some and so did Davis," Roper said. Davis took the money and as We walked out he gave me s100 and kept $100 himself. Now that's the truth" Questioned by Prosecuting Attorney Woods as to his reason for telling Sergeant Feeney he earned the money found in his pocket, Roper replied that naturally he wanted "to cover up." T thought I was get ting arrested for being drunk" he said. T was pretty drunk. you know. We had plenty of bottles and some beer"
 Lieutenant Bamforth testified that on receiving Davis report he sent Officers Hellberg and Brophy to the blacksmith shop and they found Neibling there. asleep. This was about 11:30 last night. When he was searched at police head quarters he was surprised that he had no money and at once told the police he had been touched" or ficer Peter Skierkowski testified that Neibling was intoxicated.

A Ccmmendable Police Promotion

The District Commissioners have
made an excellent selection in filing
the vacant post of assistant superin-
tendent of police by the appointment
of Inspector William $. Shelby by pro-
motion. Inspector Shelby has been a
member of the police force for a quar-
ter of a century. having been appoint
ed as a private in 1902. He has ca
pably filled several special important
assignments. and his advancement in
rank has been steady in accordance
with his abilities. having reached the
grade of inspector two years ago. In
taking the place of the late Inspector
Evans, Inspector Shelby will have
charge of the personnel work. which
Is already under his supervision and
for which he is exceptionally qualified
by his thorough familiarity with the
force.
The policy Of promotion in the police
administration is a sound one and
should be pursued whenever possible.
There is excellent material in the or.
ganization for following the practice
Of advancement by degrees, and it is
gratifying now to find it working out
to the end of placing so we'll qualified
an officer in position of higher re-
sponsibility and greater usefulness.

A 0ne-Man Attack.

George Dancey of the fast-freight
service of the Reading Railroad is un
doubtedly in line for promotion
Through his bravery he has saved the
company many thousands of dollars
At Langhorne, Pa, few days ago
Dancey was much surprised at the
sudden stopping of the fast freight oil
which he was in charge. Peeriny
ahead, he saw several trucks lined UP
beside the tracks and fifteen or more
men swarming over freight car con
tanning one hundred thousand dollars
worth of silks. Dancey did not hest
tate a moment, but clambered up on
top of the car next to the one that
was being looted and. lying fiat or
his stomach. began pumping bullets
into the ranks of the thieves. This un
expected one-man attack Disconnected
the criminals to such an extent that
after letting fly volley in his direc
ton they abandoned their attempt and
drove off. Dancey, with several bullets
through his hat. escaped unscathed
from the unequal combat. By all
means George Dancey deserves pro-
motion.

Hail. Prince

'"The brave and handsome prince
one sweep of his strong arm hurled
him into the deepest part Of the moat."
This is the kind of thing we used to
read in Grimm, Andersen and other
delightful writers for the Juvenile
mind, while our eyes grew wide and
our cheeks pink and our breathing
more rapid. Oh, to be a prince, and
not only a prince, but a fairy tale
prince, able. and ready at the drop
of a hat to master either enemy or
contumacious subject.
Such a prince as so many, alas, are
not, but such a prince as Nicholas OF
Rumania, for example, seems to be.
Well, it appears that Prince Nicholas
was in his princely car hurrying
through Bucharest to keep dinner
date with his mother, the beauteous
and regal Marie. And a taxicab got
in the way of the palace vehicle and
blocked it, and would not move, and,
probably, the taxi driver. shiIting MS
cigarette butt, gave some ill-advised
back talk either to the prince or to
the princes chauffeur. He did not
care what sort of car he blocked

perhaps preferred TO snarl UP the
latter.
But the princely arm shot out, and
the temerarious taxi driver was
yanked from his seat quicker than
scat. He was plunked into the prince.

Hooliganism in London.

London is reported to be deeply cha
grined over the antics of Cambridge
and Oxford students who last night
engaged in their customary rag" fol-
lowing the annual foot ball match be-
tween the two universities. 1t has
the graduates to engage in a demon
stration on this occasion. but never
before have they gone to such lengths
as those just reported from the British
capital. The students and their sup
porters not only marched about the
streets singing and cheering, but they
invaded the theaters, interrupting the
performances. and even going to the
extreme of Selling the fire apparatus
and spraying streams about, regard
less of results. The gowns of women
in the audience were in many cases
ruined. Actresses on the stage were
pelted with paper balls and other mis-
siles. Two performances were stopped
and the audiences were dismissed,
with the refund of their money.
American cities are not unfamiliar
with these demonstrations following
big collegiate sporting events, but
never have they been the scenes of
such rowdyism as that which has just
occurred in London. AS a rule the
antics of the students are viewed with
good-humored tolerance and even with
sympathy. although on some occasions
they have seriously interrupted public
entertainments which they have at
tended.
1t is probable that this demonstra-
ton Of hooliganism on the part of
the oxford and Cambridge students
will cause the adoption of preventive
measures. and although the custom of
post-game enthusiasm has almost be-
come an established institution-and
an established institution in Great
Britain is difficult to change or stop
it maybe that measures will be adopt
ed to put an end altogether to these
riotous performances. For it is now
evident that the occasion of the an
nual match is being utilized for dis
play Of unlicensed rowdyism that
must give serious grief to the sedate
sponsors of British education. The
fact that American actresses were by
chance the chief sufferers from the
hooligans in the theaters gives the
matter an international aspect that,
while perhaps accidental, will not be
overlooked by the authorities at West
minister.
