MEANEST CROOK
ROBS SMALL BOY
Tot Gives His Mothers Money
as Security for Return on
Fake Errand.

The police are looking for a hardened
crook who robbed a little boy yesterday
of a quarter that his mother had given
him TO buy medicine. Frank Plumaker,
the boy, left his home at 1872 Commerce
street in the afternoon with a bottle
under his arm and a quarter clutched
tightly in his hand. He had gone but
a few steps and his mothers admoni-
ton to be careful was still ringing in
his ears as he made his way toward
a drug store in Mulberry street, when
a mar accosted him.
Il want you to go on an errand for
me-" said the man.
Il can't. Mamma wants me to hurry
back" the youngster replied.
We'll, l have a very important err
rand that must be attended to and I
want o to do it. You won't be long
and you can earn a good big tip.
Wouldn't o like to make twenty-five
cents for your own?"
That sounded pretty good, and at last
a
the little fellow was persuaded to listen.
The man said he wanted the boy to take
a letter to a Broad street department
store. n drew an envelope with the
name and address printed on it from
an inner pocket. Frank started off at
a run.
Here Wait a minute! Not so fast
called the man who had employed him,
there's money in that letter and I
must have something as security. I
don't know that o are honest"
The little chap protested that he had
nothing, but questions as to whether
his mother had not given him money to
go to the store brought the quarter to
light. That would do, and the thief
took it. He promised to be at the
house in front of which he was standing
when the boy returned. Needless to
say the envelope contained waste paper
and the mar was unknown in the
neighborhood and couldn't be found.
His description tallies with that of a
notorious thief who has Just been
doing time" Captain Carroll, of he
detective bureau, has put men to work
the case.

A comparison of the STAR today
with the colored supplements of the
Sunday papers shows clearly thai the
color work in the Sunday papers did
not even suggest the STARS big in
novation. A glance at the best Of the
color work which the high-class mag
azines are doing determines the patent
fact that their tinted sections do not
excel shaded portions of the STAR.
When the best a great monthly mag
azine can do in the big partially I'M
explored field of color is equaled by
the evening edition of a daily news
paper, that newspaper. 1t almost seems,
is in a position to plume itself a little
and to assume a receptive mood, so
far as its readers are concerned.
Daily Artistic Treat.
The STAR installed its big press,
equipped with devices which had never
before been incorporated in g. printing
press, for the sole purpose of being able
to give it's readers more than any other
paper in the country was giving it's
readers with this edition that has been
accomplished. and the only question
which remains is concerning the atti-
tude of our readers toward the new edi-
ton.
1t seems hardly probable that the del
icate, restful shades which relieve the
black and white monotony of the STAR
today can be other than pleasingsto any
one. New, artistic and in evident good
taste 1t must perform just that mission
for which 1t was Misunderstanding
STAR readers a daily artistic treat and
equipping them with the consciousness
that their own home papershas taken q
long step in advance of all the other
newspapers of the country.
Progress has been the ~watchwoi'd Of
the STAR from the very beginning.
Under the banner inscribed with that
stirring word the big new sextuple
press was installed.
1t did not necessarily follow that be-
cause the STAR had installed the very
newest printing press to be obtained
such a one as is to be found In no other
pressrcom in the country-that it must

source of that press. With such a
watchword to which it was sincerely

Marvellous Achievement.
Many marvellous things have hap
pened to the strip of paper in the wink
Of a fiy's eye as it passed through the
press, and as 1t nears the end of it's
journey little knives dart out and cut
it into the required length, brushes
paste it up and steel fingers fold it
and register its count.
Other fingers press it into a bundle
in which. are f%orty-nine other papers
like itself. This bundle is tossed to a
platform, from which it is taken and
the separate papers started on journeys
to every corner of the State.
Fifty thousand of these papers-if
they are NJ more than twelve pages
have thus been printed in an hour; 25,-
600 If the pages exceed twelve. But
they have been more than p~rinted-they
have been printed in three colors.
1t was necessary, of course, that the
STAR install the very latest printing
press evolved that its ambition to give
its readers an innovation never before
attempted by a daily newspaper in this
country might be realized. That such
a result has beer accomplished this
first edition of the STAR in colors
proves in the most incontrovertible
manner
STAR Alone Scores Triumph.
When it was announced that the.
STAR would issue its evening editions
In color the newspaper world awaited
the result of what was generally re-
garded as a most ambitious experiment
with the greatest interest. From the
time the big new press was set up in
the pressroom of the STAR and the
details preliminary to the latest and
biggest innovation in newspaperdom
had been worked out, the project of issu-
ing the evening editions of the STAR
in d~elicately toned tints was never an
experiment. This paper today proves
to any doubters there may have been
that the enterprise is not an expert
ment, but a settled fact, which sets a
new mark in the progress daily news
papers are making In this country.
In time other newspapers will follow
the STARS lead with colored pages in
daily editions. but just now the STAR

Two hundred and fifty bales of
linters were badly burned at the
Oil Mill Thursday afternoon. The
origin of the fire is unknown and
the flames had gained considera-
bic Roadway before they were dis
covered. The cotton was under 81
shed adjoining the Dillon Storage
Company's warehouse and at one
time it looked as if there might be
serious conflagration, but the Oil
Mill is equipped with an excellent
system of water works and when
the hose was turned on the flames
were quickly extinguished. There
were 260 bales of linters under the
shed but out of that number ten
were saved from the flames. The
loss will aggregate fully 5000.

Child Dies from Burns.

MIR. S. A. Owens of Fork who
was here Saturday tells of dis
trcssing affair which occurred in
his community Thursday. Mr..
Luther Carmichael, prominent
citizen of the Fork, went over to
a neighbor's Thursday and left
two children aged 3 and 10 at
home. During the fathers abb
sence the youngest of the children
got hold of match and attempt
ed to make tire in the stove.
When the little fellow stopped
down the blazing match ignited
his apron and in a few moments
he was enveloped in flame. His
10 year old brother ran to his
rescue and succeeded in smother
ing the flames but the little fell
low had been SO badly burned
that he died few hours aft r
ward. The accident is peculiar
ly distressing in that Mr.. Carmi-
chael was bereft of his wife some
months ago and had been caring
for the little fellows himself.
He has sympathy of everybody
in his bereavement.
On the same day another child
was burned to death a few miles
from Mr.. Carmichael's home. The
name of the child nor the circum-
stances surrounding its death could
not be learned.

there than stay here and be tried

This was the startling plea
made by Sam Gray. a negro ar
rested in East Bouchc, Miss, to
an officer who had him in charge
Whom did you kill in South
Carolina and when did you kill
him?' queried the Mississippi Of
ticial, visions of Il reward for the
apprehension OF murderer per-
haps floating before his vision.
oh, ! don't know the nigger's
name but killed him all right.
You just write TO the people down
home and they'll tell you all a
bout It, answered Gray. the rob-
ber-murderer.
Sheriff Poole received the letter
last week. 1t gave in substance
the conversation between tic Of
liccr and the arrested thief. 1t
also said that Gray along with
three other men. broke into Il
store, robbing it of almost every
thing III sight, and that three of
the thieves were in custody and
would be tried AZ an early date.
The letter also stated that if the
Grccnville authorities wanted the
man for murder he could be seen
in the Jail ut East Bouche.
There was an immediate hus-
tling in the Office of the sheriff
and deputies went to work on the
case. Ihey found that five years
ago that Sam Gray had lived in
Grcenville and that he is supposed
10 have killed another negro bv
the name OF Slick" Robertson
near the conuty jail here. They
also found that two negroes were
killed while the work on the new
reservoir was under way, and as
Gray worked there for a time. he
may have been the man to end
the earthly life of one of these.
But as all the witnesses in either
of the cases are not to be found,
Gray will have to be tried in
Mississippi for just h c plain
robbery.
