a year and the men were paid $50 per month.
The trouble was that Congress failed to make
any appropriation, so we were not able to get
uniforms. After while the force was equipped
in gray uniforms. The men had clubs, but no
revolvers. carried revolver. Then we had
no regular station house. But there was an
old guard house the old market on
Eighth street, and we fitted that up. 1t was
used by the constableS to lock up the negroes.
It was an old brick structure in very dilapi-
dated condition. The lower room was used as
a scale room for the market, and got SIS
from the city and partitioned off the upper
ROOM so as to have a separate place for the
men and women. The lower room was used as
an Office for the man on guard, who took the
names of the prisoners. We brought them
here from all parts of the city.

the gangs Of rowdies who used to come
down to the city to straighten out the town.
as they called it. There was one gang that
came from Georgetown another from the Navy
Yard and another from the Northern Liberties.
They would come down to the city for good
time. They were composed of young men, some
Of them respectfully connected, but the majority
were hard citizens It was nothing for them to
clean out house of M-fame. Then they would
90 to the theater and raise such disturbance
by bowling and kicking the benches that some
times it required my whole force to keep them
in order. But when they were going to have
a real good time they would start out with the
intention of cleaning out anybody that came
in their way If two of these gangs happened
to meet, then there was war. There would be
a regular free fight, generally with fists, but
sometimes sticks and stones were used. It
was a matter Of great local rejoicing one
gang happened to clean out the other in one
of these fights. There was gang that had
been chased out of Baltimore called The State
Hose, and they came over here to make it
pleasant for the boys. Then the volunteer fire
companies used to give us q great deal Of
trouble 1t was seldom that a fire occurred
that one or more fights did not occur either

Be Paid by Banks
Veterans of Sank Centre Conn
munity Can BE Accommodated
BY Local Institutions

The Merchants National and
First State Bank Of Sank Centre
are participating in the Veterans
Credit pool Of $34,000,000 which has
been established by a group Of
Twin City Bankers.
The money is Immediately avail
able and a number of veterans of
the Sank Centre community have
already availed themselves of loans
to be secured under the revised ad-
justed compensation act. Already
loans exceeding $16,0O0,0O0 have
been granted Northwestern veter-
ans under the original compensa-
ton act.
1t Is contemplated that $50, 600, 900
will be needed for this work in the
Minnesota territory.
Applications for loans may be
made at either the Merchants Ma
tional or First State Banks. All
new loans will be written on an an
nual interest basis Of Az per cent
per annum.
Under the provisions of the re-
cent amendment to the World War
Compensation Act, the making Of
loans up to 80 per cent of the face
value Of the certificates is permit
ted two years after the date of the
certificate. The original act, adopt
ed In January 1927, established
graduated loan values beginning at
8 per cent Of the face value two
wears after tho date ~ kba oo,xta
cate, which was usually January 1,
1925, and reaching as high as %
per cent In 1880. Thus the collateral
value Of the certificates is more
than doubled.

Sank Centre Wins Opener in
District Tourney-Defeat-
ed by Glenwood

The dope as predicted by the
Herald editor ran true to form in
the District basketball tournament
at Alexandria Friday and Saturday
of last week.
Sank Centre opened the tourna-
ment at 1000 a. M, Friday meeting
their friendly enemy, Osakis. The
Herald predicted that the locals
could win this contest with the pro-
per fighting spirit. They played
beautiful basketball, leading Osakis
by a slight margin all the way. As
the two teams lined Friday morn
ing the best team won. The final
score was 1910 in favor of Sank
Centre. Hamilton, with seven points
was high scorer of the game.
Glenwood caught a tartar in the
Henning team for the second game
of the tournament. This game was
won by Glenwood almost in the final
minute play, the finals being Glen
wood IS Henning IT.
The much touted Melrose team
took a terrible drubbing from Alex

being 25-10. Melrose was outplayed,

the way.

GreyEagle Card Sharks
Give Locals Drubbine
Trim Locals by 20 Points at Grand
NuIa Thursday Evening
They Like 1t; Oh, Yeah.

That Grey Eagle gang of grand
nula high binders are inhospitable
hosts.
1t will be recalled that a couple
of weeks ago they invited the
whist players of this city to be
their guests Thursday evening OF
last week.
This invitation followed a close
victory won in this city by the
locals.
When Fred Mossman extended the
good will offerings Of his town
there was a string attached-the
losers were to pay for the lunch
con at the Grey Eagle set-to.
Came the Fatal Night
About 40 of the players in this
city climbed blithely into autos
and headed for the Hamlet on the
north happy in the thought that
they would meet a bunch of good
fellows and garner a free feed.
Play started shortly after SOC
o'clock. In all the writer's roamin's
he never met up with as tight q
bunch Of Scotchmen as is that
gang Of card sharks from the
Todd county village. -
From the time the first hand
was dealt until the closing period
the Main Street gang never had q
chance. At the finish Grey Eagle
led by 20 points.
The ladies of the Catholic church
served a marvellous lunch. Toe
much for any normal man to eat
at that time Of night.
Knowing a fine opportunity
when he saw 1t, it has been limited
that perhaps our good friend
Fred Mossman. stored his surplus
away in capacious pockets for flu
ture reference.
At any rate 1t was a great eve
ming. The Grey Eagle gang are a
fine bunch of friends. So what
was SOC per Sank Centre capita
among friends?
