BOY BURGLARS SHOT.

Mr.. Gladstone Stewart proprie-
tor. of the Peoples Drug Store
having had his store burglarized
+ twice, set a trap gun Sunday
might commanding window up
lEtairs. Monday morning the gun
was found sprung, a pane Of glass
shot out and signs of blood on the
gallery and side walk. Tuesday
morning, Mayor Gaiennie and
Chief of Police Clay Richard dis
covered that two white boys.
Louis LANCE and Felix Borel. were
both wounded in the arm, and
arrested them. They were
brought to the PEOPLES Drug Store
and after being questioned for
some time admitted that they had
burglarized the drug store and
several other stores and houses in
town, and implicated another boy,
Wilson Lalande, in the robberies
they had committed. Lalande
was not with the other two the
night they rot shot, but when ar
rested he confessed to being en-
gagged with LANCE and Borel in
other burglaries.
Some jewelry stolen from Mr..
j. S. Savoy's residence and other
stolen articles were found i'll
Lange's trunk.
The boys are all about II
years old. Lange and Borel
were shot with No. Z shot and
their wounds are not serious.
The parents of these boys are
good, honest citizens. Had they
kept them at school and held
a tighter rein over them they
would not have brought this dis
grace upon them. This is the
SIsreotyped way of moralizing !
over such an occurrence. But
another idea intrudes: Is not So
ciety to blamei The parents Of!
the boys are working people. III
their labor had brought them SUI
ficient wages to raise their fami-
lies with the comforts that all
American families should have
perhaps they would have kept
their boys at school and looked
after their conduct closer.-Coast

LOUISIANA STATE BOARD OF
HEALTH.

Everyone seems to think he will
have Influenza. Everyone wants
to know how it begins.
1t is really not probable that
everyone will be attacked by the
disease and it is not possible to
give much information as to how
it begins or how to keep away
from it. q
Usually it starts just as a bad
cold does. General aching, head
ache, backache, often chill.
There is fever in some cases. fire.
quently the temperature runs
high. A great many cases Of In
fuenza show no further symptoms
than those Of an ordinary cold.
Sometimes the cache" is worse
than in a cold.
Anyone who feels chilly. few
erish, achy" should 90 home and
go to bed.
The Suggestions Most
Helpful Are:
Don't worry about catching
anything.
Keep your feet dry and warm
and your head cool.
If you need laxative, take it.
Don t over-eat.
Sleep nine hours. In room by
yourself, if you can.
If you sleep in a room with
others, tie a handkerchief over
nose and mouth.
Relieve the street car by walk
ing to work, even if it is three
miles.
Don't cough or sneeze at any
body.
When you. expectorate, spit in
paper and burn it.
Influenza is very easily COM
municable and the best preven-
tive measure is to keep the body
in good condition.

SHOOTING SCRAPE
Bob Swafford Gets Bullet in the Lungs
and Recovery Is Doubtful.

Saturday night. March 20. there was
a dance at the home OF Lem Hardin,
who lives near the Bledsoe county line
IN the old third district of this county.
Bob Swaoffrd was shot three times by
Hugh and Bert Price, it is charged.
One shot went through the left arm,
another under the left arm and into
the lungs, while the third grazed his
leg. The shot in the lung, is the only
one that is regarded as dangerous.
Doctors who are waiting on Swatford
claim the chances for his recovery are
not favorable.
Thursday, Deputy Sheriff q. W..
Walker went to the home of Hugh
Price and arrested Hugh and Bert
Price and brought them to town.
They were tried before Esquire
Thomas Randolph. and bound to court
in the sum of $500 each.
This shooting was the result of an
old trouble between the Swaffords and
the Prices. About two yeras ago Bob
Swatford and one or more brothers
shot and killed Lee Price, brother of
the Price boys, at Luton. IN Sequa-
tchle valley. 1t is regarded as only
started tor there are several of the
Prices and Swatfords, all of whom are
known to be dangerous men. and no one
expects the trouble to end where it is,
whether or not Bob Swatford lives.

VOTE CANVSSED
No Contests and All Is Harmonious In
the Party Ranks.

The committee of five appointed to
canvass the vote of the republican pri-
mary election held March 9, met in the
county court room March 16, at
noon to canvass the returns as sent in
by those who held the election. There
were no contests and no irregularities
where found anywhere. All the de-
feated candidates accepted the results
gracefully and there was no evidence
of anything other than harmony.
At two precincts. Byrds Branch and
Milestone, there was no election held.
The other 22 precints made proper re-
turns and the total vote proved to be
1916, which was some lighter than ex-
pected.
Contrary to the estimate of some S.
I. Cline had the largest majority of
any candidate. His majority over
Frank Potter for register was 3l5. s.
N. Smith came next with majority
of 299 over Geo. 2. Burnett for coun-
ty judge.
T. f. Brown for trustee has major
lty over his nearest opponent. E. S.
Jones, or lac and over Sampson DeRos-
sett of 367. Mr.. Brown lacked 10
votes of getting as many as both his
opponents.
For circuit court clerk Herman
Hendley has majority over his oppo-
nent, W. G. keyes, of 243.
The race for sheriff was three cor
nered, as was the race tor trustee. j.
s. Garrison won ver his nearest oppo-
nent, "Duck" Smith by 1874 votes
and over e. W. Walker by PIG votes.
The two opponents of Mr.. Garrison
received, together, 81 more votes than
he did.
In the case of w. d. Hedgecoth for
County Court Clerk there was only enc
candidate which naturally gave him
the largest vote of any candidate. But
the fact that he had no opponent, re-
suited In the failure OF several to vote
for that Office. His total was 1884.
In spite of the fact that E. M. Nc
Gait withdrew from the race for sheriff
two lays before the election he re-
ceiv-ed few votes. All told his vote
was "a.

ARMISTICE IS
TALKED OVER
IN A BOX CAR
First Meeting Of Foch and
German Delegation in
Crude Office.

Paris, Nov. 9, S a. m.-Germany's
armistice delegates were received by
Marshal Foch yesterday morning at 9
O'Clock in a railroad car in which the
commander in chief of the Allied
forces has his headquarters, accord
ing to the Petit Journal.
When the Germans credentials had
been opened and verified, Matthias
Erzberger, leader of the enemy dele
cation. speaking in French. an
nounced that the German government
had been advised by President Wilson
that Marshal Foch was qualified to
communicate to them, the Allies con-
ditions and had appointed them plen-
ipotentiaries to take cognizance Of
the terms and eventually to sign an
armistice.
Marshal Foch then gave the terms
in loud voice, dwelling upon each
word. The Germans were prepared
by semi-official communications for
the stipulations as a whole, but hear
ing set forth in detail the concrete de-
mands seemed to bring to them for
the first time full realization of the
extent Of the German defeat.
They made a few observations,
merely pointing out material difficult
les standing in the way Of carrying
out some quite secondary clauses.
Then Erzberger asked for a suspens-
sion of hostilities in the interests of
humanity. This request Marshal Foch
fatty refused.
The delegates having obtained per-
mission to send courier to Spa and
communicate with that place by wire
less, withdrew. Marshal Foch i'm
mediately wrote an account Of the
proceedings and sent them by an aid
to Premier Clemenceau, who received
them at noon.
The German delegates are lodged
in a country mansion at Rethondes
six miles east of Compiegne, and
thirty miles from Marshal Foch's
headquarters.
With the commander in chief at
the time of the interview were Major
General Mixime Wiegand, his as
sistant; Vice Admiral Sir Rosslyn
Wemyss, first lord of the British Ad-
miralty and Vice Admiral William S
Sims, American representative. 80

FRENCH Think
GERMANS WILL
sign ARlMlSTlCE
News Of Revolutions in All
Parts Of Germany Ground
For Belief.

Paris, Nov. 3, (5:45 a. m.)---French
opinion, which is remarkably restrain
ed and conservative is unanimous in
this view that Germany will capi-
tulate between now and Monday.
There Is no tendency to exaggerate
happenings in Germany, but it is felt
that the Germans have had enough to
make 1t imperative for the govern
ment to make peace at the earliest
possible moment.
M. Copies, writing in the Figaro,
fairly sums up the views of all edi-
torial writer's when he says:
"The details Of revolutionary move
ments in Germany are lacking but we
learn enough from hour to hour to
feel already that they are neither su-
perficial nor fictitious. Do they con-
tain deep-set revolution? Are they
but riots due to the reaction Of the de-
feat? What authority does the re-
public proclaimed at Munich possess :?
These are questions which concern
Germany alone"
While Germany is rejecting on the
Allies terms, Marshal Foch continues
his blows without intermission. The
German army may break at any mo-
ment. There were signs of new re-
treat from the Scheldt yesterday and
the French are along the Meuse over
front of fifteen miles. The alterna-
tive for Germany now is armistice or
invasion-not evasion.
