GREEN IS A BAD NEGRO
"Bear" Green, Brought From Dallas
BY Chief Perry, Came Near
Getting Away Again.

The city police department owes it
to white man prisoner that another
Jail delivery did not take place last
night. Bear" Green, the negro who
got out few weeks ago, and who
was captured at Dallas and returned
to the city by Chief Perry two nights
ago, succeeded in picking the lock to
his cell, using small piece of wire.
He was digging his way through the
brick wall when a white man prisoner
gave the alarm. The negro threatened
to brain the man if he did not keep
quiet. Then the man used a bit of
subterfuge. He told the negro that
two policemen had responded to his
cries and were then crouched in the
alley near the window, ready to shoot
down the first man who poked out his
head: This bluffed the negro, because
he Believed the white prisoner was
telling the truth. Chief Perry says he
is going to chain the negro up, and
take no more chances with him.
He was fined $5325 in the corpora
ton court yesterday, including costs,
and therefore has a long job of work
ing for the city before him. He is
regarded as a desperate, bad negro.

COTTAGE WAS DAMAGED
BY Fire This Morning-Property of
Contractor C. S. Maffitt and oc-
cupied- Ry-Mr.- Nd pyal.-

A small cottage home, the property
of Contractor C. s. Maffitt, and occu-
pied by Mr. w. D. Dyal, real estate
man, was badly damaged by fire
which was discovered shortly after II
o'clock this morning. An alarm was
turned in and the department re-
sponded quickly The fire had gained
considerable Roadway just under the
roof, and the roof seemed to be afire
pretty much all over, but good water
pressure soon had the flames under
control. The roof had to be cut away
in several places in order to get to
the fire. Mr. Maffitt says he had $500
insurance on the house, which is
located ON North Sycamore street,
near Crawford, and which was re-
modelled last year He says this is
the first fire he has ever had. Mr..
Dyal carried no insurance, we under
stand. The fire evidently caught from
a flue.

THE REAGAN
MONUMENT
MEMBERS OF MONUMENT COM
MlTTEE GOING TO MAKE AN EFF
FORT TO. FINISH PAYING FOR
THE SAME-ALL SHOULD HELP.

Yesterday afternoon the Reagan
monument committee met at the city
hall to devise a plan for cleaning up
the Indebtedness and to have the
monument placed. Various plans
were discussed, and one was finally
adopted. The plan adopted is to make
vigorous canvass of the city, calling
upon every loyal man and woman to
contribute just one dollar each, not
as donation, but as an investment in
civic Improvement. 1t was argued
that for each individual it would be
dollar well invested, and an invest
ment that would pay handsome divi-
dend in the satisfaction of seeing the
monument placed.
1t was agreed that the present
status of the affair was serious re-
Election on the citizenship of the town,
and a condition that should not be
longer tolerated.
A few good women have volunteered
to make this canvass, and they will
put it up to each individual to do his
or her duty as resident of the home
of the beloved patriot and statesman
i'm whose memory the monument is be-
ing erected.
Unless the balance due on the work
is forthcoming the city is liable to
lose the monument altogether, as
other interests are at work to have
the monument carried elsewhere To
surrender it would be to the everlast-
ing shame of the city. We just can't
afford to give it up. That is all
there is to it. One dollar from each
one Interested, from each one who
has a love for home, for town, for
civic beauty, will pay the balance of
the debt, and no one will be injured
thereby. This matter has Jagged too
long, and should not be permitted to
longer remain in its unfinished condi-
ton.
Let us give the good women every
possible encouragement, and greet
them with smile and dollar.
