CRAP SHOOTERSI
MISTAKEN FOR
CHICK'N THIEVES

A midnight call to the sheriff
of PasQuotank Saturday night
and an effort to bottle up
suspected chicken thieves on a
narrow road five miles from
Elizabeth City, resulted not in
the capture of chicken thieves
but uncovered the rendezvous
of three car loads of crap shoot
erS.
Two car loads of crap shooters.
finding themselves bottled up in a
narrow road with no way out. de-
serted their automobiles and took
to the tall woods. taking any evi-
dence of their midnight fun with
them. ....'.
Ken White. who lives on a back
woods lane or road near the Milton
sample plantation on Bcly Road
discovered suspicious looking auto
mobiles parked In the privacy of
that little freQuented road at mid
night. PasquOtank farmers have
been bothered much by chicken
thieves of late and the first thing
that entered Mr.. Whites mind was
u thought of chicken thieves. He
CALLED the sheriff and told the sheriff
he would bottle the thieves up on
the Body Road end Of the lane If
the Sheriff would come in by way
of the Hertford highway, the only
outlet of the other lane.
Sheriff Carmine reached the
scene about 12:15 A. NJ. coming in
to the lane from the Hertford road.
He hadn't proceeded far before he
came upon the parked cars.
My God. here comes the sheriff !"
cried hOarse masculine voice and
CHeTe Wis CIdSH VI SLiuii tihibSiS .
as numerous forms fled thru the
surrounding woods.
The occupants of one car remain
ed and faced the sheriff manfully.
No evidence of crap shooting, liquor
drinking or other unlawful pastimes
was apparent and it isn't against
the law for townsmen to sit In an
automobile In backwoOds lane at
II 10 in the morning. If that Is their
idea Of having good time.
No arrests were made. but a
puzzle as to where the crap
shooters hide themselves on Satur-
day nights has been solved ut last.

GILBERT STORES
TO Be PUT UP AT
AGAIN
Bid Of $500 BY Norfolk Mer.
chants Raised To S9,400
By Other Parties

Bids aggregating 5000 for
the bankrupt stocks of the Gil
bert Stores in Elizabeth City
were rejected by the referee in
bankruptcy this week and the
stocks of the three stores will
be re-advertised for sale within
ten days.
The stocks. and fixtures Of Gil
bcrt's Main st. ladies wear shop.
the Peoples Bargain Store and
Mitchell's Department Store were
offered for sale to the highest bid
der on Tuesday. Sept. 20. More
than score of prospective buyers
from out of town appeared. mostly
Jewish merchants and brokers.
The stocks and fixtures of the
three stores were knocked down to
l.. Snyder and A. Blacker. Of Nor
folk on bid of $4,000. y #'ThOs. L.
Llssell who. conducted the sale re-
garded the bid as highly satisfiic-
tory and recommended its immedi-
ate confirmation.
But some. one Is anxious to ac-
,.,,;., tho CiII,arf stnrEs and rnmp
into Elizabeth City; the bid was
raised to $1,000 the following day
by parties whose identity has not
been revealed. Hence the resale of
the property next week.
o. +. Gilbert who filed petition
in bankruptcy last month with liza
bilities of $47O25.67 assigned the
stocks and fixtures Of his three
stores with an inventory value OF
$1GGS4.S3. The appraisal value
was approximately two thirds OF
that amount and sale Of apprOxi-
mating two thirds of the appraisal
value of a bankrupt stock Is con-
sidered good sale. The bid OF
$1,000. while giving the creditors
only about IS per cent. on their
claims, was considered good sale.
The high bidding was an obvious
disappointment to Mr.. Gilbert who
had hoped to bid in his Main Street
Store himself. ut low figure and
re-establish himself in business at
once. 1t appears that Mr.. Gilbert
will have to make other plans.

1T turned out all right because
he had been going with the girl for

"Yes SIR said the Soda Jerker.
"If you're drunk, crazy or just

no difference. If you've got the
price of a license and maybe a little
tin for the license clerk, you can
get a license to get married almost
any place in North Carolina any

keep marriage license blanks IN
their homes to oblige folks who get
soused or get caught out and want
TO be married before daybreak.
But they have to have medical
