Steals Whisky Out of Chief’s Pocket
To have a bottle o f whisky stolen
from his pocket by a prisoner was
the experience o f A. Austin, chief o f
police o f Albany, last week. Chief
Austin and Officer K in g had arrested
two hobos and when they arrived at
the city jail they stopped in the front
corridor o f the jail to search them.
Nothing was found on the first man
and he was told to step aside. King,
who was searching the second hobo,
found a full bottle o f whisky and
handed it to Austin, who placed it in
his coat pocket. W hile the search o f
the second man continued, the first
hobo searched abstracted the bottle
from Austin’s pocket and the officers
:: discovered the situation-just in time
to see him draining the last o f the
liquor from the bottle. The Joke was
so good that Austin told it himself.
