BOY IS ARRESTED
Youth From Atlanta Charged With
Theft of Two Watches

George Clayton. IA years old, was ar
rested yesterday afternoon by Officers
Brown and Brams and confined in the
city Jail. charged with burglary. 1t was
alleged that the boy stole a watch and
when he attempted to pawn it he was
caught.
Soon after being placed in the jail it
was learned that he was suspected of
having stolen second watch. He was
examined, however, and the watch was
not in his clothing. The police say they
are sure he Is guilty of the second
charge also, although they have been
unable to obtain evidence against him.
When the boy was searched the second
time bank check for 10 and bill for
the same amount was found concealed in
his coat. The bill was made out to the
person who signed the check and it is
thought the boy was sent to collect the
bill and kept the money.

HEFLIN HANDS OUT
VERY HARD JOLT

Washington, February 2.-(Special.)-
During the debate on amending the CEN
sus bill in the House today a laughable
colloquy ensued between Representative
Heflin and Representative J. Warren
Keifer Of Ohio, which was all to the
benefit of the Alabama man. Representa-
tive Madden of 1lliniis had made speech
defending the appointment of negroes as
census enumerators and General Keller
followed it up. Mr. Heflin asked the
general whether he considered the ap-
pointment, of negroes in the census as
compatible with the presidential promise
that he would not give negroes office in
the south After much fencing, Mr.,
Heflin asked Mr.. Keifer. who tried to
evade the question, whether he had in
dorsed the appointment of negro In
his own district In Ohio.
II did not finally admitted the gen.
eral, amid much democratic applause
and laughter.

tive Floyd of Arkansas said to the An
bamian in a stage whisper: "One mogs

THAT REMINDS ME
More Than Eight Thousand Men In Jefferson County Have
Come Forward and Paid Delinquent Poll Taxes For From
Two to Nine Years-New Reporter Is In Trouble
by WALTER HARPER.

During the past few weeks 5000 men
in Jefferson county went down into their
jeans and dug up poll taxes for from
two to nine years for which they were
in arrears.
More than 800 of these men paid for
the nine years that have slipped by
since the adoption of the new constitu-
ton which requires that every voter shall
pay an annual head tax" of $3.50 be-
fore he shall be permitted to enjoy the
franchise-before he can count himself
as full Pledged citizen of the state and
the republic.
The man who will walk up and pay
$3.50 in one lump for the privilege of
voting is true patriot and has the in
terests of his country where it should
beat heart.
1 am glad that there are more than
5000 patriotic citizens in jefferson coun-
ty, men who are willing to sacrifice
something for good government. True. it
is a small sacrifice to pay the poll tax
annually and 1t is a duty that every
man should perform without a word of
protest but when the matter is neglect

accumulation of arrears it takes some
sort of appeal to the conscience or the
individual patriotism to bring the de-
linquent into the tax collectors Of
flee.
There has been some talk recently
of some legislative plan for the re-
lief of those who allowed for one cause
and another their poll taxes to be-
come delinquent. But the good work of
the delinquent voter during the past few
weeks seems to indicate that that indi-
vidual is we'll able to take care of HIM
self and will work out his own saliva

The poll tax goes into the general
school fund which is of statewide ben
eft to the people, The tax is bur-
den to no man and should be reuired
The total number of poll taxes paid
in Jefferson county up to Tuesday night
when the books for the year were closed
was 1900.
The young man who resigned his job
in the packing house to take job as
a reporter on the morning newspaper is
in trouble
Now, 1t happens that this young man
is married He married before he broke
into the newspaper business.
To try him out the city editor assigned
him to get story for Sunday on work
ing girls as cooks. He was instructed
to interview shop girls, stenographers
and other girls employed in public estab-
lishments and ascertain what percentage
of them know how to cook.
1t looked like a first-class assignment
to the new man. 1t offered an excel
lent opportunity for news features and
bristled with human interest possbili-
ties But he did not count on one of
the possibilities.

with artificial pompadours over their
brown eyes. sweet little ink stains on
their tapered fingers and welcoming
smiles on their enamel cheeks.
Some were willing to talk and some
were not. None of them would stand for
having their names printed. Some of the
girls told him on the SPOT all they knew
or did not know about the domestic art
of cooking. Several said they would
write it out and send it to the office.
Here is where he got in trouble.
Some of the Fair NAMES" did
write out what they wanted to say and
sent the perfumed missives around to
the office addressed to the young reporter
personally
He tucked these mssives away in his
pocket until the story was fully devel-
oped. Here was his great blunder. He
should have put those messages in cold
storge or had the city editor lock them
Up. But how could he dream that dam
ger lurlSed in a few carefully worded
missives on the science of cooking, even
though the paper on which they were
written bore unmistakable evidence of
crushed violets and evaporated heliotrope
buds?
The storm broke next morning at
home
Mrs. Young Reporter, in her daily ex-
cursion through her lords pockets for
car fare, found the missives tucked away
in an inside pocket.
or course she read them.
She instantly aroused Mr.. Young Re-
porter, though he had not been in bed
more than an hour, and demanded an
explanation.
Why should Mamie write to him that
she knew how to bake potatoes. but
would have to pass up the pastry?
What was 1t to him that Julia didn
know ''tiny Bit about making biscuits,
but she had made a few pies that had
pleased her brother?
Was 1t necessary to his welfare that
Mary had tried to learn cooking once in
cooking school, but gave ii up for the
typewriter?
Mr.. Young Reporter realized in a mo-
ment that the preponderance of evidence
was against him. He tried to explain but
1t was no use.
The bunch of discriminating letters,
written in feminine neatness and adj
dressed to him personally were Haunted
in his face by his defiant wife. The
more he tried TO explain the business the
darker grew the storm clouds.
The end of the unfortunate affair was
behind drawn curtains. The public should
not try to peep in and spy on the fam
lily affairs of the Young Reporters.
Suffice it to say that the near journalist
has resigned his job and will return TO
his old place in the packing house.
