not want to take a trip to the re-

scriptiOn of the man but could not
give one sufficient for OFFICER Pusey
to try and locate him. The key to
the machine was found under the bed
in the room which he had rented.
Reynolds admitted in the Office of
Magistrate Sharp that OFFICER Pusey
seemed to "have the ge0dsr on him"
by finding the key to the car in his

non and Grafton Hood. Each
charged that DuckWOrth, while in
/ drunken condition, tried to cut
hem with a knife. None seemed to
Inow his motive for attacking them,
It least they failed to disclose it to
he officers. There is a persistent 1
umOr, however, that the operation /
f some stills in that section by GER {
ain parties may have something to q
o with his general attack on the I

ach case, making the total on the d
lur charges $4,000. +
