Real estate man tied up and horse refuses to move
A prominent real estate man tied his horse at the Safety building and, after entering, returned to find the horse halted. He whipped it, then discovered the animal was tied. Elsewhere, Harry Schriver, assistant state's attorney, was suspected of horse theft after lending a black horse to Olaf Atkinson who playfully questioned its ownership. The mix up ended with explanations at the mayor's office and a small cost for refreshments. Local ads promote Rheumatism relief and Chamberlain's tablets with brief testimonials.
