ATLANTA, Ca, March 13.-Some-
where between Atlanta and Newman a
tired deputy sheriff is tramping
homeward, unless he has picked up 4
ride. And thereby hangs tale.
The deputy arrived yesterday after
noon from Newman having in custody
one large and husky negro prisoner,
we'll handcuffed and docile. He was
being escorted to McDonough to pay
the penalty Of some high crime or mis-
demeanor.
Arriving at the terminal station and
having a wait between trains the dep
uty waxed thirsty. Ordering the pris-
4oner to remain in his seat in the wait
ing room the officer ambled over to
nigh beer emporium and began to
slack a Coweta county thirst.
The prisoner waited, grew tired, and
.confided to new-found acquaintance
that e was exceeding hungry. The
deputy failed to return, so the prisoner
at last arose weisurely and went away
from there, handouts and all
When the deputy returned, later in
the day, he had no money, but his
thirst was all gone. After bemoaning
the loss of his handouts he inquired
the dirt road to Newman and started
out, more or less unsteadily. on the
homeward path.

ATLANTA FILM
FLAMEO BY
P|OUS CROOK
Especial to Times-Recorder.)

ATLANTA, Ca, March 13-More
than 800 worth of gold leaf and
quantity of valuable paint and brushes
were secured yesterday afternoon
from several paint stores by stranger
who presented forged orders from the
pastors of several churches. He had
even gone so far as to have letterheads
printed with the names of the church
and pastor thereon.
1t was a mis-spelled word written
ON one of the orders that brought dis
covery of the trick. One store mana
ger who had filled the order noticed
some time afterward that the word
"'oblige" was spelled "oblidge," and
rather doubted that Father Kennedy
of the Church of the Immaculate Con-
ception, was so illiterate. He called
up Father Kennedy and discovered the
scheme, but too late to catch the
crook.
