TRAVELING "BLIND
TIGER" HAD "HEAVY
LOOidilG" SATCHEL
While hanging about the East Coast
railway station Friday morning, evi
dently waiting for a train on which to
leave the city,, J. W. Hamilton, color
ed, was arrested by Officer T. O. Mil
ton and placed in the city jail. The
negro had a "heavy-looking" satchel
in his hand, and this excited Mr.
Milton's curiosity; and subsequent
discoveries proved that, the police
chiefs sleuthful intuition had not led
him off on a cold trail. When Hamil
ton's satchel was opened, half a dozen
half-pint bottles of beautiful, golden
colored liquid, alleged to be alcoholic
and potable, sprang into view. Re
posing In the same satchel were a
number of other pint and half-pint
bottles, but they were empty.
The negro was charged with ille
gally trafficking in liquor, and when
carried before Justice M. G. Rowe,
Friday afternoon, pleaded guilty to
the accusation. Judge Rowe remanded
him to the criminal court, and assess
ed his bond at $250. He will be car
ried to DeLand and lodged in the
county jail some time today.
It la evident that Hamilton has
friends in the city. While he was in
the city Jail Friday afternoon some
body slipped him a bar of Iron shap
ed somewhat like a crowbar. But for
the timely visit of an officer to the
Jail later in the afternoon, the negro
undoubtedly would have made his es
cape, as he had already used the
piece of iron to such effect that he
would have been out of the prison in
a little while.
The police department is looking
for the party that Bilpped that chunk
of Iron into the jail. Whoever it was
has a chain-gang term coming to him
If it can be proved that he really
tried to help a criminal escape from
prison and thus evade punishment

Fostmaster William Jackson is In
receipt of a letter written from Coro

la seeking certain information regard
ing Daytona. Mr. Masters says in
part: "We expect to come back to
the real south and desire to know the
average price of 50x150 foot lots in
desirable residence section of your
place; also rental of small, furnished
cottages or apartments." Mr. Mas
ters also asks about the water, light
and sewerage sytems, and wants to
know if there is good fishing at this
place. Here is a man who evidently
has had some acquaintance with Flor
ida In the past and after living in
California has decided to return to
the "real south." This is an oppor
tunity to locate a man who will prob
ably make a good citizen and a
booster" for the state, and as Mr.
Jackson says, is the kind of material
that should be most carefully looked
after by those who have the interests
of Daytona at heart.

but he wasn't exactly the kind cf cca
they would have preferred for a ae
DOT.
He had a wife somewhere along his
route, but none of us tad 3
her. We learned of the tact only froa
a word that be casually let drop one
day.
Miss" Amy BeHalrs was the beauty
of Evesham. Her father. Squire Bel
lairs, was one of the few men who.
belonging to the old type, naa sajusiw r

WelL if Griggs was interested in a
maid, it wasn't anyone's business, ana
it wasn't up to us to Interfere.
Ton can Imagine the upshot. If there
is one thing that enlivens Evesham
more than another it is a married man
paying attentions to an unmarried,
woman or a married one, for that
matter, unless she happens to be his
wife. Of late Griggs seemed to have
been making Evesham his headqaur
ters more than his business warranted.
The sisterhood didn't speak to Martha
they ostracized her. They didn't
speak to the squire, for he was not a
sympathetic man. They attacked
where they thought the best chances
of success lay at Miss Amy.
A deputation visited the squire's
daughter and laid the facts before her.
Ladles,'' said Mi38 Amy quietly, "in
my opinion you have come on a spite
ful errand. It is no business of mine to
inquire into the character of my
maid's callers and I won't do it.
So the sisterhood retired baffled.
They didn't dare to be insolent to
Miss Amy and they knew she wouldn't
care for anything they might do to an
noy her. So they held a consultation
In Miss Jones' house.
What I says is," said little Miss
Blossom, the confectioner, "we've got
to strike at the man. It's men who
bring harm to us poor women.
Inasmuch as no man had ever
brought any harm to Miss Blossom,
who was wizened, dried up and sixty,
this does not seem to have been first
hand evidence, but her suggestion was
acclaimed with great enthusiasm.
"What'll we do to him?" inquired
Miss Jones.
"A thick coat of tar and a few feath
ers chicken feathers," answered Miss
Blossom
The sisterhood kept very quiet after
that, but they kept their eyes on
Griggs. It was about four weeks later
that he stepped oft the train on Eve
sham platform, with his perpetual
smile and jolly air. He hadn't done so
before a female scout was hurrying up
town with the news.
Griggs had a good dinner at the
Phoenix and then,- feeling at peace
with himself and all the world, he
started uptown toward the squire's
kitchen the squire was away at the
time and they saw their opportunity,
too.
It must have been an hour later that
Miss Jones and Miss Blossom crept up
