Sausage Dispenser at
Jail Gets Freedom in
Chicago Court.

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, Aug. 6.-Hugh Car
~ tins crime was just a Gotta
baloney."
That's why Judge Joseph Burke
turned him loose.
Hugh, a jovial young man of &c,
started out for Warren avenue po-
lice station to call upon a friend,
who had landed there for imbibing
too freely.
Disconsolate over his pals I'M
lucky break, Cartin paused for a
few drinks himself, he admits.
Soon he imagined himself a
second Santa Claus. He wanted
to alleviate the drearineSs of the
jailhouSe.
Once in the station, his eyes
fell upon nine-potInd roll Of
bologna. He lost no time in slicing
up the meat and parceling it out
to his friend, Walter Hughes, and
the other boys in the "bull-pen."
Turnkey Pat Hart came around
while the party was at its height.
He promptly threw Hugh into a
cell.
But Judge Burke wasn't so
hard hearted. Not finding any
mention of bologna in the statutes,
he decided it was all "lotta
bologna" and gave the bologna
dispenser dispensation.

CLEVELAND, o., Aug. 6.-Fire
~ Chief George A. Wallace,
oldest acting fire chief in the

what the fire fighting business is
coming to.
Years ago firemen pitched horse
shoes for exercise, played pinochle
and poker for amusement, and
spit tobacco juice on the floor of
the engine house. just for no
reason at all.
Now they chew gum (the floors
of the engine houses are spotless)
and play golf.
The metamorphosis of the blue
clad fire fighter to a nattily at
tired golfer was learned today
when Fire Lieutenant George
Witty announced the fire depart
ment would conduct golf tour
nament in September.
When asked about the proposed
tournament, Chief Wallace, who
only recently celebrated his
eighty-frst birthday snorted.
"Golf!" he said. can old mans
game. I'll start playing after I
reach a hundred.
More than 800 members of the
fire department are active golfers,
Lieutenant Witty said. He ex-
pected at least $50 of them to en-
ter the tournament, which will be
held at the Ridgewood course.

BOOMERS LEFT
BY TAPER LIGHT
Woman Sues Power Com
pany for Business Loss.

THE House of Thousand
Candles" never would have shell
tered roomers if they reacted to
lighted tapers, as did those of Mabel
Sheets, 729 Park avenue, according
to allegations she made in a circuit
court damage suit filed today
against the indianapolis Power and
Light Company.
The complaint stated she made a
meter contract with the company,
July %, but that a few days later
nothing but darkness.
Her complaints to the company,
according to the suit. brought the
retort she had been tapping the
meter lines in order to get out of
paying her bill
After this statement, followed by
her denial, was made by company
officials, the meter was removed.
She charged all her roomers left,
and that this, coupled with her own
embarrassment at having no lights,
has damaged her $4,000.
