Jingle and Jungle had noticed that

on the glass, but the little frrtting

MAKE 1T STICK

Less than week ago John Sisuly 26, one OF the
daring bandits who walked into the telegraph Office
at Detroit, ordered all hands to "stick em up Whie
he and his comrades proceeded to gather in all the
money in sight
The bandits plans went somewhat awry, one of
the clerks stepped a concealed alarm button which
brought guards and police to the place battle re-
suited in which guards and of the bandits were
killed and policeman nortaly wounded.
Today John Sisuly is John Sisuly no more, but a
numbered convict in the Michigan penitentary where
he is to remain for the rest of his life That is steep
price to start in paying 26 years for something that
did not bring him any profit at all The courts had
the goods" on him. the daring bandit pleaded guilty
and received maximum punishment under the laws Of
Michigan.
ONLY one bit OF luck came Johns way. Chicago ban
dit he was fortunate enough TO commit his crime in a
state that does not permit capital punishment Wheth-
er life Imprisonment is more serious punishment is
something upon which many disagree.
Detroit and the state of Michigan are to be congratu
lated for the speedy justice meted out in this case
Further congratulations will be in order if life imprs
ments means really that in Michigan, and not any
where from years up is often the case in Cal
