HAVE WANDERED AWAY
BUT YET REMEMBERED
Men of Experience With Diamonds
Checks and Women Prove
Handy With Saw

If the three jail-birds who flew
the coop of the Cobb county Jail
some time on Monday night, follow.
the natural bent of their inclinations.
they are now probably engaged in the
realms of literature.
Seldom have we known a trio of
more literary inclined gentry to be
assembled against their wills in the
cell of an ordinary county jail, even
for short space of time.
At any rate they are able to thank
the arresting officers and the TAILOR
for having brought such congenial
spirits together, although it is prob
able that they were denied the form
atty of socially orthodox introduce
ton.
One would hardly have suspected
such flow of genius and wit from
the pens of forger, bigamist, and
thief, but we submit proof that it
is so.

Sheriff Swanson of Cobb County.

gems:
Dear Mr.. Swanson:
You are real nice man, but we

That they neglected to leave any

In statement given out last night
in regard to an alleged interview
on the Roy Kelly confession on the

ney J. R. Lones said:

ment by me in one of the other pa
pers in regard to the Kelly con-
fession, in justice to myself and the

statement that could be construed
that the Kelly confession had been
stolen from Prosecutor Murray.
"Second-I deny that / ever said
that I was sick of the Brown case,
but did say l was sick and had been
under a physicians care for the last
10 days.
"Third-In regard to Mr.. Ringer,

dishonest, but also added l believed
his prejudice in the Brown case
blinded him to any desire to get the
true facts.
"Fourth-With reference to the
Kelly statement no one has or can
deny his signature and l believe this
reference to the statement is suf-
fcient at this time"

Sergeant of Police Asks
To Be Reduced to the Ranks

Springfield, Mass, June 17.-Po-
lice Sergeant Edward Carey has
earned unique distinction in peti-
tioning to the police commissioner
to be denoted to the rank of patrol.
man. The request has been granted
by the police commissioner.
Carey was appointed sergeant sew
eral months ago as a reward for his
splendid record as patrolman. The
work was not as fascinating as he
had bargained for, however, as a
sergeant is shifted at monthly in
tervais between the three watch,s
and must often put In as many as
10 and II hours day making re-
ports.
Accordingly, he came to the con-
clusion that a nice day job of eight
hours with two days off a month is
to be preferred to sergeant's
chevrons, a half dollar more a day
and the honor of working many
hours overtime.

Bond Is Denied.
Captain Heitfeld testified that
when Mrs. Brown and her son ar
rived at the police station with De-
tective Armstrong. the son told his
mother that she had better get

Brown and I denied the bond"
At this poin: the captain related
the circumstances of the confusion
OF orders at the police station as to
bonds. He said: Captain Vanous
left me a note stating that his jail
crew had told him about the order
to deny bonds, and Vanous asked
me why he had not been advised.
I spoke to Captain Dunn and he
said Vanous was present when the
orders were given and it was his
cwn fault he did not hear them

he had found the order and would

and explained that the order is now
in Chief Ebersteln's office in desk

been sent to the police station to
admit prisoners to bond.
Commissioner Zimman charged

which have been brought to his at

"Is it customary for the chief of
detectives to give orders to the

Armstrong and Herdzina denied
all of the allegations in the Magrey

What are your orders when YOU

Reported Nothing Wrong.
Mr.. Butler brought out the fact
that 2l06 Cass street had been
watched for six nights previous to
the raid and that the officers re-
ported nothing wrong.
Armstrong admitted that wnen
Kelly was arrested with two women
in a room he did not know whether
Kelly was married or single.
