ACCORDING TO HIMSELF THE
PRESIDENT IS SMALL MAN
WHAT He HAS BEEN
Told by Himself to Conersville and
Rushville Newspapers.-Drew
Large Salaries.

Sears B. Hargrave, the young man
who was arrested by Captain Tom
Halls, Of the secret service, and was
bound over to the Federal Grand
Jury by United States Commissioner
Jesse Reeves, still occupys a very
prominent place in all of the Con-
nersville and Rushville papers. Har-
grave worked in both of these towns
and succeeded in making the people
of the two towns believe that he was
an officer Of the United States army
and according TO his own tales there
was but few things that he had not
done and but few places he had not
been. The Nashville papers have
placed all of his fairy tales under one
head and the following are some of
the experiences that the young man
related in the home town of Jim
Watson and Jack Gowdy:
He claimed that he did the photo
graphic work, along the line, for the
government when the boundary line
ives established between the United
States and Canada. He said that he
had been the head printer for the
official photographer at the ST. Louis
Exposition and that he had been in
the government Photographic service
in the Philippines. While there he
said that he had been wounded in the
back. He said that he was a gradu-
ate Of both Harvard and West Point
and at several different times receiv-
ed salaries Of 1925 and $75 per week
while in the Photographic business.
He said that he was going to work
for a celebrated Paris photographer
next year. His mother, he said, own
ed an immense orange grove in Flor
ida and had written him to come
South to spend the holidays with
her. His parents live at 2519 Cen.
tral avenue, Indianapolis.
Hargrave further claimed that he
was at one time official photographer
for the Indianapolis News and said
that he was going to make his moth
err a Christmas present of a life
sized oil painting of himself, made
for him by French artist at the st.
Louis Exposition in return for a Ger
tain favor that he (Hargrave) had
done him. Such pictures, he assert
ed, the Frenchman usually sold for
$4,000.
His stories of great army social
functions, grand balls and other
events in which he had participated,
great commercial schemes and other
tales equally as ridiculous We're new
err believed and caused so much sus-
picion to be east upon him that he
decided to "skip the town. He
was very excited when he left the
