claimed he was found with a revolver
in his bosom. The boys will probably
be arraigned in the city court today

SHERIFF GOES FOR
NEGRO WITH QUITE
A CRIMINAL RECORD

Sheriff Van Pelt left yesterday for
the state convict camp town in South
Florida, for the purpose OF receiving
from the lessee negro named John
Bailey, who will be returned to Pen
sacola and required to serve a SEN
tence of six months on the county
road. He has completed his term IN
the states service, and now comes to
satisfy the sentence imposed on him
in the court of record here.
Bailey has quite criminal record.
He was sent up for the theft of shin
giles. The negro would order shin
giles or building material to points
in the city by telephone, represent
ing himself as the agent for builders.
Deposited on the building site the
shingles would be moved that night
and disposed of to some other par
ties. He made q getaway from the
county road while out there serving
sentence, and upon coming to the
city, is said to have broken into a
store on West Garden street, robbed
it of a number of articles. Then. it
is charged, he set the store afire. and
it was burning when the department
reached the scene. Located and run
to earth by Officer Steward later,
the nero showed fight and in a scuf-
file with the policeman, disarmed the
latter. The officer had called on q
negro to help him. and Bailey wrested
the officers gun from his hand and
calmly handed it to the negro assist
ing, telling the latter to shoot the po-
liceman. It was only through the
fact that the second nero stuck to
the policeman that the latter was not
hurt. Closing in with the deperate
black man, Officer Steward soon
overpowered and arrested him.
