CITY ENRICHED $400
BY MAYORS COURT
MANY OFFENDERS HAILED
BEFORE BAR OF Juice ON
MONDAY MORNING.

A Heterogeneous collection of offend
ers of the law were hailed before
Mayor A. L. McLendon on Monday
morning on charges ranging from
speeding to melting a pear war.
About seventy gasoline destroyers
received special invitations to attend
the matinee and at O'Clock, when
/ the curtain was scheduled to rise, it
was necessary to hang out the stand
ing room only sign.
When the t1iinions of the law had
arranged themselves comfortably in
mill was put in motion and fines dealt
out with lavish hand. Each one of the
so-called offenders who ranged from
habitual speeders to the clerk Of the
court himself, received fines according
to the rate they were travelling. Fines
ranged from $3.50 to SIS, and those
who were charged with more than
one offcnse were fined for each indis
cretion
John Hill and Charlie Jackson, ne
groes, were fined $3.50 each for try
ing to settle their own disturbances
without the aid of the law but in the
primeval method of utilizing any
weapon that was handy.
The case that held the spotlight of
the matinee, however, and which just
fy had the most important place on
the program was the case of the city
versus F. w. Herman and S. Pearl
man for disorderly conduct, arising
from alleged infringing on sale adver-
Using methods. The mayor at first
decided, after a casual glance at the
large array of witnesses, to turn the
case over TO the league of nations, but
after remembering that this tribunal
had accomplished nothing to speak
of since its organization, he determin-
ed to try the case himself.
Mr. Herman entered a plea of gull
ty and Mr. Pearlman countered with
a plea of not guilty. At the gong Mr.,
Pearlman, ably seconded by his attor-
ney, led off with his account of the
fracas More seconds were then
brought in and some fast returns on
the part of both combatants Mr.. Her
man came up for the final with his
statement of the difficulty. At this
juncture while one of the policemen
was sent for reinforcements the con-
ficting sides fell into clinch over
minor phase of the law. Referee Nc
Lendon then decided this point and
both sides spared warily until the
concluding witnesses gave their testi-
mony.
With bated breath the whole audi
ence listened intenty to hear the rem
dering of the decision and were sur
prised to hear the referee pronounce
it draw, one draw having already
been recorded earlier in the case by
one of the offenders in reference to
gun WHICH had been called into
play. Mr.. Herman was fined $35 and
Mr.. Pearlman SIS, their antes with
the addition of the fines of the speed
ers having brought in around $500 to
the Golfers of the city.

Negroes Charged With
Robbing Depot Escape
Special Investigator Has Been at
Work on Dawson Thefts.

Sheriff Woods, with the help of
Policeman O. L. Mcneil and special
investigator of the Seaboard Air Line
railway, who has been working here
for some time on the recent robbery
of the local depot of that road at Daw-
son, attempted to arrest three young
negroes who had been under suspi-
cion for some time for completely in
the thefts.
Two OF the young darkies, Lovett
Christie and Dude Chester, proved too
speedy for the officers and took the
highway headed north. Nothing furth-
err has been heard OF them, and it is
the general opinion that they have
left this section.
The third suspect, Charlie Lee Rob
inson, did not attempt to flee, and is
out on bond.
1t is supposed that one of the
small negroes hid in the freight house
and was locked there at night thus
enabling him to let the others in: The
articles missed were OF small value.
1t is understood that those charged
with the thefts have been peddling
merchandise among the negroes for
some time.

CHARGED WITH STEALING
SHOES; WAS ACQUITTED
Claimed That He Found the Footwear
By the Roadside.

In the future there is no doubt
that Arthur Lee Foy, a negro, will
be sure to inquire concerning the own
ership of any footwear he may happen
to find lying by the roadside instead
of appropriating and carrying the
boots home.
A commitment trial was held before
Justice OF the Peace J. w. Peddy on
Wednesday afternoon at which Ar
thur was charged with stealing the
shoes in question From the evidence
it seems that he came upon a pair OF
shoes unawares on the side of field
on the farm of Mr. ]. R. Mercer, and
not seeing the owner about he quick
ly came to the decision that the shoes
should become his by right of dis
covery. However, complications set
in, due to the fact that the shoes were
missed and evidently had not been
left in the field as was claimed
The evidence was not sufficient to
convict, so Arthur was discharged
with a warning to the effect that he
should be careful in the future about
appropriating any article he might
find"
