scene a crowd of boys from outside
our own community, bringing with
them that which only finds its place
with such an element, and some dis
turbance arose, but they were taken
charge of before anything very serious
resulted. We fail to understand how

throne his reason, rob him of his

Cut your weeds and grass.
In the first place it is sanitary and
will be of valuable assistance in quell-

is because it violates city ordinance

when hailed before Recorder Mar

holding water from the late rains. It's

OLD JOB FOR CHIEF MISSING BOY FOUND
AGAIN AFTER HIS DEATH

MACON, Ca, July 31.-Thomas Ed
gar Stripping, released from the state
prison farm at Milledgeville Sunday
al noon, when a pardon was received
from Gov. Nat E. Harris, arrived in
Macon at 7:10 o'clock last night over
the Georgia railroad, en- route to his
home in Columbus.
To all appearances Stripping was as
happy as 3-year-old boy as he stepped
from the train at the union depot and
received the congratulations of friends
who gathered about him and shook his
hand.
1t was apparently with great deal
of pride that Stripping produced firm
bis pocket letter from the president
of the board of aldermen at Danville
Va, where he was serving as chief oi
police at the time of his arrest for the
murder he was convicted of having
committed four tene years before, in
forming him that if he cared to return
to Danville he would find his former
position awaiting him there.
q do not know yet whether l will go
back to Danville," STRIPPING said, al
though l am inclined to do so. Those
people there have been so good to me
that I don't see how 1 can do other
wise.
My daughter, who lives III Rich
mond, Va, has asked me to bring my
family there to live, but haven't yet
made up my mind to leave Georgia. AS
soon as l reach Columbus l am going
to hunt a quiet back room and rest for
