A SMOOTH ARTICLE.
In the Hands OF the Law For Passing
Checks With No Funds to Pro-
tect Them.

ester Busbee is the name OF young
man from Lexington He is a cripple
and. owing to his physical condition,
aided by his sharpness, finds 1t easy
to play upon the sympatnies OF peo-
pie. He was in Newberry last May
and succeeded in passing some worth
less checks on several OF our worthy
citizens. Before being found out, lie
| eft this city. Later he turned up III
! I.aurens, where he was caught up with,
! having practiced the same game there.
He was sentenced to the chain gang,
but on account of his crippled state
Il e authorities arranged to let him
serve q term in Jail After linger-
ing there in prison while, he got
the sympathy OF some, who paid nim
out and gave him money to pay his
way to Newberry and some over, upon
his fair promises of having job in
Lexington, VI ere was going to sup
rort his mother and her other chill
dren, whose sole dependence be claim
ed he was His job there was like his
money in the bank-not on :: and. (Tae
Herald and News has one Of his checks
foor $500
In the meantime, while he was in
Laurens serving time, a warrant was
issued against him by Mr.. Gus B. Sum-
mer. When the Laurens authorities
turned Busbee loose, with / is given
cash, 4 ey gave him the warrant for
his arrest from Newberry. Reaching
this city, Busbee oiled his sickness
and actually walked into the store OF
Summer & Hipp, displaying most
igl degree of cheek. Says he: well,
Mr.. Summer, here I am with your
warrant. What are you going to do
with me?" Right then and there that
poor crippled sharper worked on Mr..
Summers sympathy. Mr.. Summer is
a fine business man, but ne is warm
I.earted and friendly, and is willing
to help a fellow along. He was not
disposed to be hard on the unfortunate
young man. But there were other men
in Newberry who had been bitten by
the "bamboozlings of Busbee." The
man was made prisoner and jailed. On
"wednesday afternoon he appeared be-
fore Magistrate L. M. Player to an
swer to the c. arge of obtaining money
under false pretenses. He pleaded
guilty. The magistrate made it SIS or
80 days, and also gaze him a good lee
ture The prisoner thougst the SEN
tence was heavy. Considering the
gravity of the offense, the magistrate
was lig.t on aim. Magistrate Player,
: in the kindness of his heart, tempered
i justice witt mercy by stipulating that
the prisoner be put on the public works
at such labor as his physical condi-
ton would allow nim to perform. He
was ten remanded to jail there to
await the order of Supervisor Sample,
another kind hearted official, who says
he will give Busbee light employment,
suitable to his capacity.

ROYAL COUPLE HAD
 NARROW ESCAPE
King Albert and Queen Elizabeth Bombarded by Aeroplanes in
 Belgian Fishing Village.

PARIS, Dec 21.-The newspapers here are giving details of the nar- row escape of King Albert and Queen Elizabeth of Belgium, from death when an unfortified fishing vil- lage on the Belgian coast was bonn. barded by German aviators.
 It is believed the Germans must have received information as to the movements of the royal couple as the village was literally blown to pieces by the rain of bombs which was show cred upon it by the German air fleet.
 Queen Elizabeth crossed the chan mel to meet her husband who mas re- mained with his troops at the front. The escape of the royal couple is con- sidered as miraculous as nearly ev- cry building in the village was de- stroyed.
