Jail Breaker Captured.

Ed Beulah, alias Ed Smith, alias Ed
Butler, and no telling how many other
aliases. who broke out of the Colfax jail
on the night of May 26th, has been cap
tured, and is now being held in the
Shreveport jail. Beulah is wanted in
Grant parish on II bills for selling whis-
ky, and also on the charge of Jail break
ing. He was arrested in Shreveport in a
peculiar way. Having changed his name
and otherwise disguised himself he was
taking the chances in the Shreveport
dives and gambling houses, and being
wanted as witness in some disturbance
was brought before the city police court.
Chief Gerald saw that he answered the
good description Sheriff Swafford had
sent him OF the man wanted, and SO had
him arrested and jailed.
Beulah, or Smith, rs he called himself,
pretended to be very much surprised
when he was arrested by Chief Gerald
and Officer T. d. Price, and denied very
stoutly that he was the man wanted, but
after little investigation the officers de-
cided that he was the man wanted with
out any doubt, and he is being held
pending the arrival of an officer from
Grant parish. Sheriff Swafford has tele-
graphed and written them word to hold
their man until he can get through quar-.
antine lines--that Grant will pay for his
keeping, as she can board him in the
Shreveport Jail about as cheap as she can
| at home.
