WANT TO SEE A POLICEMAN?

Cheer Up, Ahern's New Order Fixes
Everything.
Police will be seen occasionally.
WHEN CHIEF AHERN'S ORDER
GOES INTO EFFECT

Numerous complaints come to Chief of Police Ahern from citizens that they never see a policeman in the vicinity of their homes. To enable the residents to obtain a glimpse of the blue coats, the chief issued a special order yesterday which is as follows:

To Commanding Officers: -- You will hereafter have the officers under your command, while walking their beats, to change their routes several times during the day or night and not walk the same street all the time. In many sections of the city citizens complain that they have never seen a policeman, for the reason that the officers usually walk to and from their boxes on the same street or streets. Have this mode changed so that people can see them occasionally. You will have this matter arranged as you may think best. DANIEL AHERN, Chief of Police.
