THIEF GETS GUN
INTENDED TO KILL HIM

Jackson Miss, Aug. 6.-In holy writ
something is said about the man who
setteth a snare shall fall into it. In
this case he did not, but lost his snare
and the property it was designed to
guard, as we'll as the thief it was t.
catch.
NJ. l.. Lott, whose home is in Earle
street, is rated first-class truck farm
err of watermelons and these were
marvels, ripe and juicy, they sold easy
and were in great demand.
Somewhere in Jackson lives some
one who raises no watermelOns, Meth
or does he buy them, but evidently he
is fond of them. This partly has Wis
tied Mr.. Lofts patch several times,
and Tuesday night Mr.. Lott planned
to rid the world of one more water
melon thief and make work for the
coroner.
He loaed a gun and set it elaborate
1y, so tnat, as ne thought, tne disturb
ing of the melon would discharge the
gun. Early yesterday morning he Wis
tied his patch and fully expected to
see a dead negro. Behold his cOnster-
nation when not only all the melons
but the gun as well had been stolen,
"By the beard of the Prophet,
POUNDS and odds bodkins, swore Mr.
Lott, as he dashed for the telephone
and notified police headquarters of his
loss.
Cant and his dogs were sent for and
spent some time on the trail, being
unsuccessful in the chase. The police
have tho matter in charge, but up tC
this time have located neither thief
gun nor melons.

London, Aug. 6.-The exclusion of
German war toys is what a movement
started by the Countess of Stanford
hopes to accomplish in Great Britain.
But the movement is not alone an in
dnstrial one aimed against Germany,
but an effort to provide a trade at
which manned soldiers can work
when the war is over. Heretofore,
Great Britain has bought about ST.

have been almost all of German make
The scheme provides for the financ
ing OF the industry by per cent loans
Surplus profits will he sepnt in devel
oping the technical side of the bust
ness. Needy artists will be giveI
jobs as designers.
