- Camden. June 10: Mayor Fl. G.
Garrison, Jr,, turned a clever trick
this morning. \ stout, well dressed
man, who gave his name as Ward,
called upon him at the Bank OF Cam
den, where Mr1Carrison is the cash
ier, and told him that his name had
been given him by friend who
thought that he might like to buy
some Scotch whiskey. Mr.. Garrison
answered in tho affirmative and told
him he had friend who would like
to get some, and invited him to go
with him. They walked up the street
together for a short distance until Mr..
Garrison located policeman and call
ed the officer. The alleged vender of
Scotch wares asked him If he were
going to put policeman on him. Mr..
Garrison told him that was exactly
what he was going to do for him; that
he was the mayor of this town. WARD
started running, the officer right be-
hind him. As he reached Dekalb
street, Ward called to confederate
in n car to move on. Sheriff Wclch
happened to be crossing the street at
the time and caught Ward and he was
taken in charge by the policeman and
locked up. He said he was from
Aiken. His confederate was caught
in Columbia. Officers will go to Col
umbia and bring him back and the
two will be tried here in the circuit
court These fellows did not fare as
well as one did here Il few days ago
who went around quietly and took
some orders and received the cash for
the goods and then left for parts un-
known. Mr.. Carlson is being con-
graduated by his friends for the clever
part he played in turning up these
fellows; ..,s sl 80. .-tE'.t.'i.
