Tables TUNED on Citizen
Trying to Assist Officers
Store of Well-Known Druggist Is
Searched; Some Whisky Found.

His efforts to assist the officers in
recovering a diamond brooch that was
lost by Mrs. ], E. Morris several
months ago resulted in Mr.. 7. D. Lee,
the well-known druggist, being him
self made a victim of the law.
Mr.. Lees porter told him that a
negro woman who had come into the
store was wearing diamond pin, and
thinking it might have been lost or
stolen Mr.. Lee notified the officers,
Sheriff Woods, Deputy Jennings and
Chief of Police Hill responding.
While in the store Sheriff Woods
noticed glass jar which he thought
had contained whisky, and asked Mr..
Lee if he objected to search being
made, to which he ready consented.
The officers found small quantities Of
shine" in various parts OF the store
amounting in all to about pint. Mr.
Lee was required to give bond in the
sum of $500.
Sunday night the same officers Wis
tied Mr.. Lees residence, on Seventh
avenue, about 10 o'clock and founo
several well-known citizens indulgine
in a game of cards. All were requir.
ed to give bond. Mr.. Lee says he was
merely entertaining a number o
friends at home during the evening
Mrs. Lee being out of the city. Al
contend they were playing set back
and no one was gambling. Some one
in the neighborhood reported the
game, and the warrant under which
the officers acted was obtained from
Mayor McLendon.
The woman explained her posses
sion of the brooch by stating that she
found it some time ago on Main street
in Dawson 1t was restored to the
owner and the negress was allowed to
60.

score of II to 6, the better. Bell start
ed off for Dawson, but the southpaw
failed to do his old time stuff and the
ball was batted to all parts of the lot.
Garner, a bright prospect for Tech,
relieved Bell and held the opposing
team we'll until the end Of the game.
Errors on both sides were very much
in order Several college stars were
on both sides, but no star plays were
accorded any.
About 500 was realized from the
game, which went to defray the ex-
penses of the Edison team here and
of the Dawson boys on their disas'
trous visit to Edison. The boys are
undaunted and will continue to devel-
op the sand lot league with local
players.

brought in by Mr.. Jennings.

Mr. Evarts the still was just begin
ming to function. The precious" fluid
was just beginning to drip from the
condenser, and was being sampled by
the manufacturers. Turner had hung

ing to catch the shine as it came from
the condenser. They would probably
