GETS I YEARS FOR
KILLING DRY AGENT

Seven years was the verdict re-
turned by a mixed jury composed OF
six "wets" and as many "drys" in the
case OF James Davis, thirty-three,
eolored, who, on the night Of June 20
shot and killed J. c. Shellhorse, Vir-
ginia State prohibition agent, while
on board q southbound Southern train
near the city limits of Alexandria
SheIlhorse with two co-workers
were in the act of searching for
"booze" on the moving train when the
shooting took place.
The jury deliberated for more than
six hours. As the jury finally filed
into the jury box to make known its
verdict Davis betrayed only slight
interest When asked how he felt
he grinned and said, Fine" When
informed that he would soon know
his fate he grinned once more and
replied, ''Yes, 1 hope it's somethin'
good"
During the trial Attorney Robin
son Moncure, counsel for the priso-
ner, attempted to prove that Davis
is mentally unbalanced. Davis spent
three years at the Government hos
pital for the insane.
Following the verdict Attorney
Moncure. appealed from the decision
on behalf of his client on the grounds
that the jury found their decision
contrary to the evidence and law OF
the case. The appeal will be re-
viewed later by Judge Barley.

E|NPEY DENIES HE
SLURRED DRAFTE

EAGLE RIVER, wis, Aug. 15-'Ifs
all wrong. I didn't say it." Arthur
Guy Empey declared here today when
told that the report was going the
rounds OF the press to the effect that
he lost his captains commission be-
cause OF derogatory statements he
made about drafted men when he
spoke at the National Thsater in
Washington.
Empey said that he had received q
telegram from New York branding
the report as pro-German propaganda.
He explained that he had been made
a captain, but on account Of q new
ruling from the adjutant generate
Office, no captains could be made from
civilian life. He was, therefore, hon.
orabIy discharged, he says.

RECORDERS COURT.
Negro Soldier Given Road Sentence
For Stealing Launch-Not Wanted
Back in Army-Riding Bicycles en-
Sidewalks Must Be Stopped.

Will Faulk, the colored soldier who
was arrested several weeks ago on
the charge of stealing gasoline
launch belonging to Mr.. V. B. Nc
MILAN, was eiven hearing before
Recorder E. M. Britt yesterday. IIe
was sentenced to IL months on the
roads. Recorder Britt had some
doubts as to whether or not he had a
right to pass on the case and is hold
ing Faulk in jail for further inves-
tigation of the matter. Army officials
advised local authorities that Fap &
was undesirable for the army and was
not wanted back. The negro admitted
stealing the boat and said he intended
making his way back to his camp in
the boat.
Lee French, colored, was tried on
the charge Of riding bicycle on the
sidewalk. Judgment was suspended
upon payment of the cost. Riding BIZ
cycles on the sidewalks of the town

DRESSED TO ASTONISH.
Strange Looking Wanderers Blow
Into Town-Style Themselves 'ls-
raelites"-They're Riding Now But
Have Taken Occasional Strelis.

Wrapped in white robe and wear
inc neither shoes nor hat, his hair
long like a wonan's and not a dime
spent for shave in many years, he
attracted no small amount of atten-
ton. A man whose description is Civ
en- above spent yesterday here. lie
had with him boy or girl, y-'u could
not tell which, who looked to be
around IL years old and who was
"rigged" up in the same manner as
the older "Israelite," as he termed
himself.
When interviewed by Robesonian
reporter, the ''Israelite" said he walk
ed more than 5000 miles last year
because he did not have the price to
ride, but that he was riding now be-
cause he had the price. He said the
youngster with him also walked all
the while he was walking the more
than 5000 miles. !,
This strengthening wanderer said
he had spent many hours in prison
and expected to spend some more
there. He said Chief H. H. Redfearn
Of Laurinburg wanted to arrest him
for vagrancy and he left town.
