A BOY OF DE[RO!I
 DROPPED OUT OF SIGHT
His Parents Long Search Without Success Of Some Clue.

A letter has been received by The
 Republican from F.. C. Greene of 97 Pallister avenue Detroit, offering a
 reward of $500 for information leading
 to the return of his son, Carlton H. Greene who mysteriously disappeared last october from the Central high school of Detroit, since when nothing
 has been heard of him.
 He is described as being IS years of age, height feet @ inches, weight about 1IS pounds. sandy hair, light complexion, blue eyes, slightly dimp- led chin and has a slight muscular twitch of the eyes and face. He is of slender build, is active, studious of good habits, quiet and retiring in man. ner. When he left home he wore a dark blue serge suit and light golf cap. He may have taken an assumed name.
 In the hunt for the young man the father has had the aid of the United States navy. various police depart
 ments and the leading steamship lines.
 The father accounts for the unbroken silence of his son who is assumed to
 be still alive by saying: After break
 ing home ties without notice, it is diff ficult for boy of spirit to bring him
 self to the point of writing home be-
 fore proving his ability to make some
 showing, and boys do not realize. the grief and sorrow caused by the sus
 pense of prolonged absence. We feel certain that if we can gain the atten-
 ton of our son and assure him of the
 cordial welcome and cooperation in his future plans awaiting him at home
 and that he will not be urged to con tinue in school against his will. as he
 might suppose, that he would be will

Tom Davis Killed.

A killing occurred at st. Ma
rvs last Saturday night with Ton
Davis, a colored man, the victim
Following a sidewalk dispute be
tween the negro and some boys
in which Jack Love interfered
and was assaulted by the former,
Love drew his gun and fired twice
either shot being fatal. The vic.
tim ran a short distance when
Love fired three more shots, one
of which hit the negro in the back
and the fourth lodged i'll his hip
bringing him to the ground. Low,
was arrested. From what we car
learn the dead man was fellow
of vicious character and alway,
aggressive. For safety the latter
always carried a revolver ex.
posed in his upper coat pocket
and when he saw Davis abusing 8
boy he objected, with the result
that Davis struck him, cutting and
blacking his eye. At the time, il
seemed from the evidence, that
had not Love resorted to speed,
action the negro would have fol.
lowed up his opportunity and con,
tinued to beat Love. An inquest
was held Sunday, Coroner BieI,
Sheriff Klein and his deputies
present, and the evidence seemed
to be a clear case of self defense
The sheriff later brought Low,
here and lodged him in jail. HC
was given preliminary hearing
before Squire HunoId Wednesday
