weapons and shooting on the public
highway, Jerome Sloan, of colored ex
traction, waa tried yesterday before
Magistrate W. C. Broadwell and con
victed. Not having $20 to pay his
fine, Jerome was sent to tho chain

ing by .Deputies Olin Sanders, W. B.
Drennan and James Williams, who
had repaired to a negro bouse In the
vicinity of the county home for thc
purpose of keeping tab on the pro
gress of a colored "hot supper." While
the officers were watching and the
merrymaking was in full swing in
the house three big negroes came
scampering through the woods, where
the officers were concealed, carrying
betw een them a large pot full of hot
-;
peas. It developed that tho peas were
the "refreshments" which were tb be
served after the ball was over. The
?heft of thc refreshments was not dis
covered until some time after thc
three negroes with the pot had disap
peared tn the distance and devoured
the peas, immediately pandemonium
broke ioxmc in th? dance hali and a
small army of negroes rushed out
across the fields in search of the
thieves. Far up the road they heard
the three negroes beating a tattoo
upon the pot. using their spoons for
drumsticks. This was a signal to tho
pursuing gang that the pot had been
eaten clean. About that Mme Jerome
Sloan Whipped out a pistol and tired
In'the direction of tho negroes who
had swiped the pot of peas. No soon
er had he fired this salute than Dep
uty sheriff Sanders reached out of the
bushes and collared him.
