EXTRA! EXTRA!

Things are getting quieter on
the criminal front, or was it the
sudden change in temperature that
Is causing "Mornin' Jedgap to
find some other duties about the
office to make up his five hours
a week?
Just as we We're attempting 10
put this stuff together, the secre.
tary in the office now here's a
clever girl, | work right in the
office daily, including Sunday, and
| can't get thing on that girl
to write about. | have done every
thing, even down to window peep
ing and | am just as | was when
| started, saving a flat nose from
leaning against windows. But stay
with me- | will get her yet, for
Eve set the pattern that woman
must follow, and this secretary Is
no exception,--as | started te say
before going off on a tangent, the
secretary called my attention to
an editorial in the Arkansas Ca
zette, you know the daily paper,
that has so many Negro subscrih-
ers, hut always publishes news
pleasing to its white subscribers,
regardless to the Negroes feeling,
anyway, this paper carried an
editorial on the Negro troops is
India, which was very commend
able. The commendable part was
quoted from an article written by
a Chicago newspaperman, which
was timely and showed the Me-
gro's sentiments, but, | was read
ing that article and pondering at
the same time as to whether the
editor of the Gazette, since it is
about to get religion doesn't know
something commendable abou. Ne
groes he could say himself some
time.
This is off the record of "MorniR
Jedge", hut the boss says I must
have &C many words to write, and
after all is summed up, one word
in a column is just as good as
another.
In looking over the records this
week, find that Mary Green. 1906
Z. 3rd, MIR, had stolen just about
everything in Greater Little Rock,
but the corner connecting Fiflh
and Center Streets, where Chief
Martin and his men intercepted.
{ The Chance boys were even quiet
over the weekend. They can't
do that to US. Our. city needs
funds, and these boys have got to
furnish them.
At last the long hands Of
Mathews and Ledden reached out
and got one Mr.. W. E. Henson,
1924 Cross. Henson was putting
on the inside, what should have
stayed on the outside, and then it
would have told him that Ninth
and Arch streets is nothing like a.
safe as Cross street $40. Ppd.

Men in uniform are not the only
ones who like fighting. and this
can be attested by J. Hardy, 1905
w. nth, for it was ON Ninth and
Gaines where Messrs. Smith Viii
liams and johnson attempted to
convince him that over here we are
all one big family, and are not
mad with anybody. (Hope Miss,
Rankin learns that) Now we will
have to- wait and see whether the
Judge thinks that a man is en-
titled to fight on American shore,
when all fighting powers are need
ed some place else.
Speaking Of fighting: Jessie
Sails, SIS Park and Helen Bullock
1414 W. 18th, can't see why every
body is talking about peace when
they feel like fighting. But they
couldn't wait to get over there.
things got underway at Ninth and
State and Messre Mathews and
Ledden didn't think it was just
right, neither did II. VI. Ills Hon
or). So it was SO.

that fellow is going to do IL, at

Mathews and his partner and "Cy-
clone" Smith and his partner get
together on a case, hell can be ex-
