Alleged Bad Man Meets Match
When Deputy Sheriff
Kills Him.
CALLED -LEATHER BREECHES'
Had Made the Assertion That He
Would Never Be Taken Alive.
Went Armed.
Waatern Newspaper Ualon Newa Service.
l^ake Charles.—Chas. Smith, alias
"Leather Breeches," a well-known
character, was shot and instantly kill
ed by Deputy Sheriff IJ. J. Charlan,
near Merryvllle, while resisting arrest.
The deputy used a double-barrel shot
gun, emptying both barrels into
Smith's body. The killing of "Leather
Breeches" Smith, as he was commonly
known, created quite a sensation in
the northern part of the parish, and
also in Lake Charles. Smith was Jn
der indictment on two charges, mur
der and highway robbery, in connec
tion with the Grabow labor troubles
of last, July, and has been dodging
the officers ever since. He had made
his boast, it is said, that he would
not be taken alive, and he kept the
pledge.
Immediately after the trouble at
Grabow in which four men lost their
lives, and in which he was a promi
nent actor, Smith took to the woods
and issued his defiance. .Many of the
inhabitants of the northwestern part
of the parish, it is said, helped to se
crete him, most of them acting through
fear, as Smith was regarded as a dan
gerous man. He always went about
armed with two revolvers and a Win
chester rifle, and the people were ap
parently afraid to refuse hinija fa
vor.
Since the Grabow affair the officers
have been constantly on the lookout
for Smith. Sheriff Reid has made
several excursions into the pine woods
in search for him, and depuiies have
been after him, frequently striking his
trail, but never being able to come up
with him.
Deputy Charlan got a line on where
Smith was in hiding for the time be
ing, in a small hut about six miles
from Merry ville. Mr- pi
ingfon fu the night and"'
at Smith's hiding place
light Charlan lay concealed near
the hut until daylight, when Smith
came out armed as usual with his
two revolvers and Winchester. Char
lan was about forty feet from Smith
when he covered him with his shot
gun and ordered him to surrender.
Smith wheeled and brought his rifle
to his shoulder, but as did so Charlan
fired both barrel», literally riddling
Smith.
Governor Inspects Canal.
New Orleans.—As a result of the
visit of Gov. Luther E. Hall to the

Superintendent Burke have palms and
trees planted by the side of the road
way and take steps toward beautify

ed out to the governor the various

mation those which are paying ren

Baton Rouge.—Detective Coyle, of
the New Orleans force, took back to

lace gave himself up to Chief of Po
lice Huyack when he saw in the morn
ing papers that he was wanted for
murder in New Orleans, which place
he left to .accept a position in
Baton Rouge. Wallace says that he
was in an argument with Morris and
pushing him over and he fell, cutting
his head. He had on idea at the time
he left New Orleans that the Injury
was a serious one.
Beeves Are Selling High.
Eden.—Beef buyers have invaded
this section and are paying the high
est price in the history or local cattle
men for the beeves. The farmers, too.

el for sweet potatoes, the demand be

cal oil man, returning from the Caddo
fields, that the Busch-Everett Com
pany, of this city, bought in a 20.000
barrel oil well just east of Caddo City,
where they have extensive holdings.
Sanitary Law Violators Fined.
Lafayette.— Judge Elliott in the city
court, tried Jean Prejean, Alsace Lan
dry and Eugene Du charme for violat
ing the sanitary regulations in the
salughter of two beeves overcome

to be parish seat of Jefferson Davis

nings and Welsh will enter the second
