AUTOSTOLEN IN
CONVICTION is
TRACED UP

Several automobiles have been stol-
en- lately, among the a new Ford be-
longing to Walter Sanders, mechan
les assistant at the FitzSimons Auto
Shop Sanders got busy immediate
ly and put an advertisement in The
Farmer offering reward of fifty
dollars for the arrest of the thief
and recovery of the car. The car
was stolen from near the picture
show on March 8. This week word
came from New Orleans that the
thief had been arrested and was
awaiting Identification from this side
of the lake Deputy Quatrevoux was
assigned the job and went over and
brought back Carl E. Nichols, who
admitted the theft and implicated
four other boys in the stealing.
Their names are being kept secret
until they can be arrested. Nichols
took the car to New Orleans by way
OF Columbia, Miss. He has brother
in Bogalusa He was employed in
Covington as chauffeur for a travel
ing man, who declares he would prob
ably be in tire or two if he had not
employed him, as some of them dis
appeared during that time.
Nichols arrest was made on in
formation furnished by Frank Bau-
man, who knew the car and identified
it. He took the officers to the room
occupied by Nichols.
Quite number of thefts, which
the officers believe were committed
by boys, have gone unpunished on
account of the youth of the Offend
ers, but citizens are getting tired of
this kind of thing, which is going
from bad to worse. AT best, it is
only a matter Of time when the peni-
tentiary will get them, if they are
not halted now.

A NEGRO AND 4
GUN MAKES
TROUBLE

A negro and a gun are not fit as
sociates. He can't carry one with
out wanting to hear it go off, and
when it goes off somebody usually
gets hurt.
Lulu Stokes, negro girl, stepped
into the Barbazon eating place Satur-
day afternoon and ordered some oys-
ters, and while waiting for them was
joined at the table by negro man
named Marsh Davis who sat at the
other side. Nothing was said by
either until Lulu exclaimed at the
tardiness of the service, when Marsh
remarked, Here's your oysters" and
fred 38 Colt point blank at her.
The bullet passed through her body
between the liver and the lung. She
walked to DR.. IHeintz's office where
the wound was dressed, it is said,
and although few people thought she
would recover, she was able to step
into the car Sunday, on her way to
New Orleans, where she was sent for
further examination and treatment.
1t is said she will recover, due to the
remarkable fact that no vital organ
was penetrated.
Davis ran out and threw his re-
volver away as he cleared fence or
two, with Marshal Jones and Deputy
Lacroix in hot pursuit. He was cap
tured and locked up.
Lulu doesn't know Davis nor why
he shot her, and he says it was an
accident and that he did not intend
it. These kind of accidents always
happen to the gun toter and the in
nCcent have to suffer.
