That Is Where IL Thief Concealed II
Another time when Sheriff Hamilton
searches a colored gentleman for a miss
ing article he will know where to look to
find it. Like the famous ralors the race
is supposed to carry the watch the Of
ticer tried to find was in the prisoners
boot. 1t happened in Judge Races court
yesterday when jeff Willow (colorcdl
and a friend were arraigncd for stealing
a watch from Dyas a. Jones jewelry
store. The couple went to the store
about 9:3O in the morning and asked 10
see some ladies' watches. Mr.. Jones
accordingly displayed a trayful
of the desired articles, telling
mis- customers to take their pick. After
exam ming a number they decided
to take IA lady's gold watch valued
at $50. Willow rendered a check On the
Merchants bank drawn to the order of
cash for so and signed +. ID. Cooper and
| asked that s. of it be applied on the
watch. The balance, $40, they wanted
in cash. Jones took the check and gave
them the money and put a ticket on the
watch to keep it until they anne to pay
the other $50.
Soon after they left he discovered that
Il watch indentical in size and make and
of the same value as the n they
selected, was missing from the tray and
Immediately started out to find them.
He spotted them in an alley and forth
with notified the sheriff who promptly
arrested them. Taking them before
Judge Race he searched them and
failing to find the stolen property set
them at liberty. At this juncturc in the
proceedings Jones rushed in and seeing
the slick gentlemen leasurcly leaving the
court room implored the sheriff to hold
them by all means as there WIS strong
enough evidence. Then Joe chased
them around the Corey block and ran
them up the back way right into the
Justices room before they hardly knew
where they were.
Their clothes were searched again with
no better success, no watch could he
found. Then Willow partner "pcachcd"
and under Il promise of 500 told the
sheriff where to look for the time piece.
Look in the suckers boots" said the
informant and sure enough there il was.
As everything seemed against Willow
he was fined So and costs for petit

Willow offered a check for $40 as part
payment of the fine. but as it was made
payable to the order of +. ID. Cooper aud
uncndorscd the judge refused to accept
