vived by his wife. He was 48 years old. Winter began his police career as an extra officer, being appointed to that position December 21, 1898. On January 1, 1900 he was appointed an active member of the department, serving as a patrolman untlL April 17, 1908, when he was "appointed second segreant to succeed Joseph" Betzold, who resigned. In March the following year he resigned when Dr. Schlllineer became mayor

and was succeeded by Edward McNatly. In 1910. Winter was appointed second sergeant when McNally was promoted to first sergeant. Since that time Winter was virtually night chief of police, and in that capacity made an excellent record. Although a strict disciplinarian, he was exceedingly popular with all his subordinates. His police career was not featured by any

thrilling incidents. Winter is the first member of the police department to die while in active service in over twenty years. Chief Goodwin probably will arrange for a police escort for the body on the day of the funeral.

fraudulent checks issued by Ruben shortly before leaving Richmond, totaled to about ?24. Several women had previously complained to the-police over their Inability to secure a settlement out of garments made by Ruben which were not acceptable to them. One woman paid in advance for a suit and four months later it was necessary for her to appeal to the police to compel Ruben to make the suit for her. Did Not Make Coats. A Richmond tailoring establishment employed Ruben to make some coats

but learned later that he had had the coats made in Chicago, the work be

ing so inferior that the men who had ordered them refused to pay for them. The tailoring company made an effort to secure a settlement out of Ruben but failed and was forced to assume the entire loss. A few weeks ago Ruben's engage-

meal to the weaWiy ISls IXaymann was announced at a reception -gSTmthe Haymann home. Upon returning to Richmond following the reception, Ruben informed friends that he had received "two hundred gifts and four telegrams of congratulation from Richmond.' ; The Richmond police thought Ru

ben went to Indianapolis after taking French leave of Richmond but the In-

'dianapolis police have been unable to

locate him.. It is stated that Ruben s prospective father-in-law has a suit, made for him by Ruben, which he will not make a payment on because of inferior workmanship.

The city has been beaten out

of its last dollar for oiling,"

said one city official today.

A woman called up a city

office this morning to remon

strate against the requirement for an advance payment of the cost. She said it was

not fair.

She was informed that it

was not fair for her husband to refuse to carry out a written agreement he had entered into last year to insure the city reimbursement for the cost of oiling the block they live upon. That ended the dis-
