MANY ARRESTS
Police Force More Than Self
sustaining This Month

Everybody about police head
quarters was kept busy last month.
Up to Saturday night there had
been IS arrests during November.
This exceeds the number of arrests
for any month during the year and
covers every crime on the calendar.
January, which opened up the year
with an aggregate of $3.50 in fines,
was almos equaled by Novem-
Der, which, as shown by the record
Of the chief of police reached $777.
1t begins to look like the police
force may be self-sustaining and
able sometime to more than earn
expenses and leave money in the
city treasury. In.March 1858. so was
the amount of fines assessed in the
city court. June was the dullest
month of the year, the total in fines
being only 1926. The total cash col
lections for eleven months aggre-
gate nearly $4,000.

ANOTHER
MURDER
In The Noted Red Light Dis
trict Last Saturday
Night.
THE VICTIM A WOMAN
Pistol Ball Intended For An
other Person Lodges
Above Eye.

The Cheany tragedy Of little
more than a year ago, was repeated
in the red light district Saturday
night with some variation, the VIC
tim being enother woman, the shot
not being intended for her.
The victim was Lille Humphrey,
an inmate of one Of the houses of i'll
fame. just outside the southern
limits of the city. The man who
fired the fatal shot was Melvin Pow
ell, a young man lately employed in
Cooper's shoe shop on Virginia St.,
between 9th and 10th.
Reports as to the manner of the
killing are conflicting. The circum-
stances, as related to the jury by
one Mrs. White are about as follows:
She and two men were in the kitch-
en-. as was the victim, Lille Humph-
reg, Powell went into the kitchen
and raised a row with one of the
men, John Jones. After some words
Powell drew his pistol and told Jones
he would shoot his heart out and
raised his pistol and fired. The
woman stepped between the two
men and received the ball just above
the left eye; death was instaneous.
Powell fled and up to noon yester-
day was at large. The woman was
buried in the potter's field Sunday.

by years of close study of The Book
and familiarity with the leading
commentaries he was always pre-
pared to answer any theological
question as readily as many minis

more happiness studying Gods word
and trying to know His will than all
his other books combined. During
all his sufferings he found consola-
ton in Gods promises and died
peaceably in his faith of a happy
hereafter. He told one of his friends
during his illness that he had not the
