False Alarms
Peeve Firemen
and Chief Price
False fir alarms are becoming tire
some to Chief Clark Price and mem
bers of the fire department who are
forced to leave their beds in the chilly
night and make their way to some
point on a Wild-cat chase. Last even
ing about 7:30 o'clock an alarm was
turned in without cause. -
Chief Price believes last evenings
alarm to have baen the work of a small
boy attracted by the accounts of Sat
urday night's runs; but the previous
alarms were the work of larger boys
bent on meanness, he thinks. An ef
fort Is -being made to apprehend th
culprits and if anyone 1s caught Id
th act they will be given 'th full
penalty of the law.
