Anril Fool Prank Sends Joe Rivers 10
The Parish Bastile.

Joe Rivers, the negro porter al tne
Southern Pacific depot, is paying
dearly for an April fool prank.
When he cleaned up the operators
room Wednesday morning ne founo
the pocketbook of night operator
Bergeron, lying under the operator
desk. He put it in his pocket and
went on about his work; later MIR.
Bergeron came in and demanded the
nocketbook. The negro denied any
knowledge of the same, and sugeesteu
that a hobo, who had been in the Of
flee. might have taken it. After some
time the negro gave up the pocket
hook and started about his work.
when he was arrested by Deputy
Sheriff Singleton and taken before
Judge Robicheaux, who found hlm
guilty and sent him to Lake Charles
to await the action OF the grand jury.
In defense. the negro maintained
that be was only attempting an april
Fool" on the operator. 1t further de-
yeloped that the operator has been IN
the habit of leaving his pocketoook
under his desk while he is selling
tickets for the night trains, being
fearful that somebody might rob him
if he had it on his person, and that
the porter has picked it up on several
previous occasions and returned 1t to
it's owner with the request that III
would not leave it there, as, II l
should be taken, the blame would o'
laid on him.
The accused has borne q good rep
utation heretofore and public sentl
ment here is in his favor, while IN
operator is criticised for leaving nj
pocketbook living around and also 10
-, iollying with the negro about 1t as d
seems to have done on previous occa
, sions.
