Michael Arentz, Confidential Agent Of
the Val. BIatz Brewery, Arrested
on Charge OF EmbezzIement.
SHORTAGE IS PLACED AT $500
Arentz Was Recently Discharged From the
Employ of the Company and Examina-
ton of Book Shows Shortage.

| Michael AREN'T, we'll known resi-
dent of the city, and until few days
ago the confidential representative of
the Val. Blatz Brewery of Milwaukee
in this city, was arrested late Thurs
day evening by Officers Newhouse,
Pabst and Kluender on a charge of
embezzlement. The complaint on
which Arentz was arrested was made
by John Holthauser, the general col
lector and solicitor of the Milwaukee
company, and charges that Arentz APP
propriated to his own use funds of the
company to the amount of $500.
AT the time of the arrest of AREN'T
the accused man asserted that he was
innocent of any wrong doing and
stated that if there was shortage in
the accounts it was due to poor book
keeping rather than to any intentional
fraud.
AREN'T became the agent for the
company in this city on Dec. 81, 1901,
and remained in the employ of the
company until May 81. At that time
1t became apparent to the managers of
the brewery that the Kenosha branch
was not paying what it should and the
general solicitor and collector was
sent to this city to make an examina-
ton of the books of the company. The
examination resulted in the immediate
discharge of AREN'T and the employ
ment of new agent. AS soon as the
new agent took charge of the business
the books were turned over to experts
and their report showed shortage of
at least $500 and it is possible that the
amount may be larger.
AS soon as the shortage was discov-
cred the warrant for the arrest was is
sued and Thursday evening the three
officers were detailed to secure the
man. AREN'T had been working at
Winthrop Harbor sinceChis discharge
by the brewery and for this reason the
officers had considerable difficulty in
effecting his arrest.
AREN'T was taken to Jail, where he
spent the night. He stout1y asserted
his innocence. He stated that every
cent of money which had been collect
ed by him had either been turned into
the Golfers of the company or had been
used for the advancement of the bust
ness in Kenosha. AREN'T was badly
broken up over the arrest and had lit
tie to say in regard to it more than to
declare his innocence.
The accused man is we'll known in
the city, having resided here for many
years. In the past he has always borne
spotless reputation. Heresided with
his family just north of the city limits
on Jay street.

Sometime during last Saturday
night the store of Mr.. w. n. White
was broken into and several articles
taken. Entrance was made at one OF
the back windows of. the store, by
pricing the iron window open with a
2x6 scautling, and no doubt the per-
son or persons who did it, were famil-
lar with the premises. A piece of
iron. a beer keg and large lump of
coal was found under the window.
Mr.. Nimmo White had entered the
store once or twice on Sunday, but
did not discover the condition of the
window until late in the evening,
when he made an investigation and
notified his father. The following
articles are missed ont of the large
stock: One Royal Tailor suit of
clothes, one black silk handkerchief,
one ladies' silver watch, one pair Bos-
ton garders, one pair shoes, one under
shirt aud SAL taken from The cash
register. No olew has been discovered

A project is on foot by the Cumber-
land Telephone Company to build a
branch line down into the Joe's bayou
country, extending to Floyd, and from
what we can learn the line 10 cer-
tainty aud will be built within short
time. That part of the parish be-
tween Providence and Floyd is rapidly
filling up and in few years more will
be the best spot in East Carroll.
Wonderful changes have taken place
out there in a short time, and il will
not be long before it will be looking
like it did before the war. Then it
was the garden spot of the parish and
the whole country was under cultiva-
ton clear TO the Bayou Macon hills.
We believe that when the North and
South railroad is built by the Goulds,
that it will Thea be only very short

Messrs. Hamley and MillikiD, who
own the property south of town, where
it ia thought the depot of the railroad
will be located, will donate as much
land tor this purpose as is neces-
sary, which shows a liberal aud pro-
gressive spirit on the part of these gen.
tlemen. Then certainly every land
owner should give the right-of-way
through their property without hav-
ing TO go to the trouble of expropri-
alton proceedings. We are still of the
opinion that every one-those few
who are holding back on giving the
right.of-way, will yet do so. They are
not opposed to the road being built,
and running through their property,
but they want certain concessions at
the hands of the railroad, which they
think are right.
