into 1T, to haul him to the Mayors
office. He had something to tell. he
told.
Held as Witness
He told his story there and later
Steve Rico was taken into custody
to be held as a witness.
Velco is about SIS years old. He
has a wife and two sons living in
the old country. He has been in
this country about seven years.
Argued at Garage
Lignon, also about 35 years old,
is survived by his wife. They lived
at 1924 Market street and Lgnon
has been employed at the Cut Rate
Garage, G. 5. Johnson, proprietor,
South and Susquehanna streets.
II was at this latter garage that
the dispute between the two men is
said to have started. Velco. accord
ing to the story related by police
authorities, on Saturday came to
them with the complaint that Lg-
non would not permit him to re-
move his automobile from the gar
age. He had taken il there that
morning for repairs, on condition
that they be performed at once, he
charged. After he had backed the
machine into the garage, Lignon Is
reported to have said that the work
could not he done until Monday and
to have refused Velco to remove the
car.
Velco then protested. according
to his complaint. but to no avail.
He then reported the matter to po-
lice authorities and it was only af-
ter a city detective had accompan-
led him TO the garage that he was
finally permitted to remove the au-
tom obile. Lignon is reported then
in the presence of the city detec-
tive. to have picked up a monkey
wrench and threatened to kill Velco.
Asked For Protection
Several times since then Nelco
had been threatened, according to
his story. Last night he is report
ed to have gone TO Levi Foster. mer-
street and told of the incident. He
was afraid of the Italian. he said,
according to the story told to-day
by Foster, and asked that Foster
call police headquarters and request
that a detective or policeman escort
him to work this morning.
Foster heard the story and prom
ised that he himself would accom-
pany Velco to work instead of call
ing a member Of the police force.
Velco, accordingly, called at Fosters
store this morning and after pur-
chasing his lunch, asked that Fos-
ter go with him. Foster finally per-
suaded him that Lignon would not
be there and even If he was. would
not attempt bodily harm to Nelco,
and so the latter started to walk the
several blocks to the State street
entrance to the Pipe Bending Com
pany. alone. Shortly after he pass
ed the carbarn of the Harrisburg
Railways Company, Lignon raised
up and opened fire, according TO
Velco's story. Police have located
no other witnesses than Rico.

WHEN BULL MEETs FoRn

just why a particular bull grazing
on side hill in Santa Ana CANYON
one day recently should entertain 50
sincere dislike for a black Ford
touring car is a mystery. He NAV
have had gastritis or bad liver, or
he may have disliked all automobiles
or all Fords.
Anyway, when the Harris family
of San Pedro drove their Ford around
the base of that side hill, friend bull
snorted, slapped his tail at a fly,
missed it, saw red, and for want of
something better to do, decided to
engage the Ford in combat. There
wasn't much of a fight. After the
bull had turned the Ford upside down
in the road he was much better sat
isfied with himself and strolled into
the shade of nearby tree to view
his handiwork.
The members of the Harris family
had not been hurt seriously, so thew
modified forces, rolled the Ford
over onto its wheels, cranked it-and
continued the journey.

OH, GIRLS! HE is
NOT MARRIED-YET

The Enterprise made a mistake
last week. Such things happen now
and then, but with the Enterprise it
is as rare as daisies in December.
Inadvertently we said that E. P. Fa-
yant, the superintendent of motive
power for the Bogalusa Paper Com
pany, had moved his furniture into
the house at 543 Avenue B and was
expecting his wife and children i'm
mediately. We were in error. We
had been nisinformed. A foul and
nasty trick has been perpetrated, no
doubt for the purpose of retarding
the matrimonial prospects of said
Mr.. Fayant. He is not married. He
says so himself. He has been passing
flowery comments about the extrava-
CANT beauty of Bogalusa girls, which
would of itself entangle him sorely
if he had a wife. He has none.
Now the Enterprise has never had
any intentions of casting aspersions
upon the name of fair folk, and GER
tainly it would not thrust a wife and
childrensupon man and thus bring
him in his gray hairs down to the
grave. Neither would it queer him
with the large number of Bogalusa
damsels who desire and need a hus-
band. Nor is it our intention to
allow this fellow Ed Cassidy, or Mr..
Canada, or any other man to have
better chance among the school
teachers of Bogalusa than Mr.. Fa-
yant. We hereby correct our mis-
take. He is not married. He never
has been. He boards at the Pine
Trno Inn cToJ tho yoon+b1vy oau4,-;b,1
ton made by his employers for the
privilege of having his name on their
payroll is of sufficient size to war
rant him taking unto himself a wife
and a number of children if there |
are any available. His hat is in the
ring and we are sorely grieved if we |
have in any way Swallowed the bril- |
liant prospects he may have already
developed in a matrimonial way
since coming to Bogalusa.
