OFFICER CAUGHT
A PISTOL TOTER
tFrom Tuesday'c Daily.)

Last night after the melee at the
show grounds there was much talk
In the neighoorhood OF the Bowery
and the Buchanan street crossing OF
the Denver track where the show
trains we're being loaded. Officers
Huskey and Bolton and other off
GERS mingled with the restless spirits
who we're freely talking various kinds
of vengeance, and sought 20 keep
the disorder from breaking out.
A tip from a bystander who no.
ticed suspicious action on the part
of one OF the men in the crowd, lead
Officer Bolton to step up to the man
indicated. The man saw him COM
ing and started away but the officer
caught up with him and stopped him.
Search disclosed loaded six shoot
or In the mans belt so the officer
Immediately took him in charge aud
lodged him in jail.
The "pistol toter" who must pay
for his war-like preparations in this
case, is W. A. Edwards, bartender
In the Mitchell saloon on the Bow
cry. The lowest fine that Edwards
can pay will be 500 and costs and
he must also forfeit the weapon
which the officer caught him with
last night.

He THOUGHT so
Man From the South Plains Felt as
If He Had Lots of Money.

Charles Durham who was arrested
At Plainview this week by Officer
Bolton for. passing a worthless check
made bond at Plainview and will not
answer here upon the charge till the
the term of the district court.
Durham was in Amarillo some
time ago and at some time during
his visit It seems he needed more
money than was left in his pocket
BY that time he probably felt that
any check he drew or passed was
good for any amount so he began by
passing check on, j. H. Patton to
cover contingent expenses. After
Durham left 1t developed that the
check he gave Patton was bogus so
far as any money value was concern
ed so the services OF the officers were
called In. When arrested at his
home Durham was easily able to
make bond and may be able yet to
square the irregularity.
