WILLIAM G. ERWIN
IN MARSHAL OFFICE
IN PANAMA CITY
WRITES SHERIFF GOODWIN OF
HIS OBSERVATIONS AND
EXPERIENCES.
DETAILED In ROBBERY CASE
Tells of the Horror of South Aneri-
can Prisons and Describes Them
Like Sherman Described War in
the Sixties.

Sheriff Goodwin is in receipt OF
letter from VIM. G. Erwin formerly
of this place, who now has a position
with the United States Government in
the marshals Office, division of police
and prisons. He is in fine spirits, has
a good position and is still interested
in Columbia and Columbia people
He recently made visit to Bogota,
the capital city of Colombia, where he
saw couple of bank robbers in pris-
on, where they were under charge
of numbering their companions in the
crime of robbery. He says a South
American prison is Shermans de-
scription of-war. Going down to the
prison where these criminals were
held he counted sixty steps going I'M
derground, the dungeon being located
under an old fort which was built
more than four hundred years ago,
the walls dripping with moisture and
covered with green moss. These rob-
bers were ironed to the walls on both
legs with chains bigger than any that
Frank Wilsford ever used.
1t is thought the United States will
get possession of these men after a
lot of red tape has been disposed of
and as much money wreaked from ,
them as is possible, and that they
will finally be tried for the robbery of
the Panama City Bank, the arpre-
hension of whom Erwin has been de-
tailed by the department in Panama.

FALSE PRIDE In
SIZE OF FOOT
THAT Is WHY NUMERALS ON
S'ioES ARE NOT PLAIN AS
THEY USED TO BE.

Why is it, Mr. Evans, that shoe
manufacturers now number their
shoas with hierogliphics, instead of
he plain numerals that we had years
80 vixen you and I were young
mem"
~E.s question was asked William
Erars, the veteran head of Evans,
,Ns. {. Moore, by re-. sentative
q rho Herald this morning.
"'I4.a reason is plain, relied Mr..
sl} as There are 2 large number
81 Indies who are quite sensitive about
the size Of their feet, and | might ado
that here are a number of men in the
same class. These ladies would be
shocked were you to hand them a
Number four or five shoe. Under no
circumstances would they wea" it,
preferring to cramp their feet in a
shoe entirely too small. They try to
deceive themselves as to the true size
of heir feet. The result is often dis
asuous to the individual, reducing
togns, cramps, etc. Under the pres
en- Plan, the customers do not often
know tie number and feet can be
comfortably fitted to the satisfaction
Of both the customer and the dealer.
The latter are always anxious to give
but this they cannot do
unless the customers will allow their
feet to be properly fitted.
False pride, yes, certainly it is.'
But there are very, very few Of us
who do not have little false pride in
our make-ups. 1t may not manifest
itself in sensitiveness about the size
of the foot but it will crop out some
time some where. It is a failing of
the human family, a condition that
confronts us.
las to business during the past
year, it has been exceptionally salts
factory, in fact our sales have been
larger by nearly $4,000 than ever be-
fore Put we bought heavily and still
have a large stock on hand which we
are going to sacrifice in order to
make room for the new styles. You
know that styles change in shoes just
as they do in dresses, suits and head
wear, and we must keep up with the
styles 1t often, as is the case this
year, involves quite a sacrifice, but we
accept that as part Of the game. Our
less is our customers gain.
