NEGRO CHAUFFEUR
is HELD ON MURDER
CHARGE BY CORONER
Killing Of Boy at Fairfield Investi-
gated by Coroner and Chauffeur
Ordered Held Without Bond

Murder was charged against Sam john
son, the negro chauffeur who ran down
and killed William Jennings Wyatt Rob-
erts, at Fairfield Tuesday about o'clock
by Coroner Rives after an investiga-
ton which occupied the greater part of
yesterday.
The boy is said to have been coming
from barber shop when the car, driv-
en- by Johnson, struck him. The negro
did not stop the car but increased its
speed and endeavored to elude the Off
GERS, although several pistol shots were
fired after him, some of them pene-
trating the car. The negro was cap
tured later and lodged in the county jail.
The body of the boy, which has been
held since the accident in Lige I.oys

WINGED BEETLE OR
scarab FIGURES
IN CLEOPATRA"
Eye Is Attracted to This
Wonderful Jewel When
Theda Bara Appears
in Great Film

In Theda Bara's cleopatra" the
William Fox wonder photodrama,
where the curious beholder will find q
glowing reincarnation of the splendor
of the east, the eve is often attracted
to the representation of the scarab, the
winged beetle, which figures so largely
in all Egyptian decoration. This curl
Gus insect was regarded by the ancient
Egyptians as the symbo of immortality
of life after death. And consequent
ly its shape was engraved upon all
sorts of precious stones or carved into
gems
These gems bearing the holy picture
were worn as amulets, as projections
from ill-luck. Naturally such luck
bringing jewels would be considered
especially attractive gifts among
friends. Special greetings in the Egypt
ian picture writing would make the
gift more suitable. 1t is an interesting
fact that the modern greeting, "a Hap
Ply New Year" was current in Egypt
probably 5000 years ago For we find
on scarab preserved in the collection
OF the Metropolitan Museum of Art in
New York the words. MAY Ra grant
you a Happy New Year"
The heart is the seat of life and the
scarab is the Egyptian symbol of the
heart. On the body of the dead Egypt
ian his pious relatives would place
scarab cut from some hard stone OH
which would be engraved a chapter or
the Book of the Dead" the Egyptian
Book of Psalms
We need not go back 5000 years to
find the scarab considered a lucky
beetle. In the records of the middle
ages we see that an emerald to be
lucky must have scarab engraved on
II and be worn as brooch. And even
as late as our own day the scarab holds
his own as favorite design Little
does the wearer of the enameled
winged beetle think of its original
significance in the glorious days of
Cleopatra.

AMERICAN SECTOR
|. NOW MOST ACTIVE
ON entire FRONT
Pershing's Artillerymen are
Hurting Thousands of
Shells Into German
Trenches

With the American Army in France,
Monday, March 11.-(By the Associated
Press. THE sector occupied by Anltr-
lean troops east of Luneville, which was
designated formerly merely as being IN
Lorraine, has developed suddenly into
one of the most active on the front from
the standpoint of artillery fighting.
American artillerymen are hurting
thousands of shells daily against the
German positions, making it virtually
impossible for the enemy to occupy them.
Investigation shows that they have been
virtually abandoned. This is especially
true i'll the neighborhood of certain
places northwest and northeast of Ba-
denviller where it is now permissible
TO say the two raids mentioned as hav-
ing been carried out simultaneously took
place.
Certain information obtained in the
American sector northwest of Toul leads
to the conclusion that the American raid
there this morning came at such time
as to cause the Germans to abandon
plans of their own for a raid. Normal
artillery fighting continues in this sec

of the line. At one place the Germans

part of May or early an June, according

The announcement of Colonel Graves.

democratic party for an early meeting of

be authorized by the committee.
Colonel Graves expressed himself that
such a vote cannot be legally taken at
