i NEGROES TO CHAIN GANG
| .V: ' ??* v 'v': CpT' ' : v . YSi
Were Cauykt Here By Citizens ami
Police After Chase
Sam Turley, a respei?<ab!e I5i>hup
ville negro, was the victim of ' ?
; "slick flim-flam" (fame last Friday.
1 when- he was swindled out of a hard
tamed savings amounting to $32.
Sam became suspicious however when
one of the "artest" tried to relieve
him of his watch, and a short ?tinw
later the matter was reported to ^he
police. Chief Jones immediately
spread a net for the offenders, and a
Jew hours later (Friday night) -the
rhii-i' was notified by 'the Camden po*
lice /department that tho men wanted
?had been arrested. Before midnight
Chief Jones had two negroes, Charlie
Powell and Willie Johnson safely
locked in tho feishopvMle "jug."
Both of tho accused men appeared
to bo p-ofessionals in itheir line. They
were given a'hearing Saturday morn
ing by Mayor Kuffin, under a general
charge of disorderly conduct and were
fined $75 each, or .30 days on the
gang. They Bpent several days in
the lockup while brying to raise the
dough. Hope -was abandoned how
ever Tuesday morning, and they
went to the gang.
It is said (that charges will likely
be preferred against 'them by the
state, when they have completed their
sentences.
"N
From the testimony before the
.mayor it ?seemed that one of <the two
^negroes engaged Turley in conver
sation and th? other walked up
near them, and picked up a pocket
book, which ho said contained $2,000
in large bills. They , agTeed that
>they would keep the money and di
vide it equally. Turley thought this
alright he said, but the money being
in two bills of one thousand each and
one for one "hundred dollars* consid
erable change was necessary befoye
the small fortune could be equally
divided. '
Turley got busy and gathered up
his $32 while one of the strangers
went to look for Dr. Harris, for
whom he said he was "working, to
get the "small change." He returned
with the story thalt Dr. Harris was
out of town, so 'they agreed to meet
again THE ne5c? morning at eight
o'clock, whereupon one of Turkey's
new acquaintances waited to borrow
his wateh. "Right den I got spicius"
said Turley, and when he called upon
Dr. Harris and found that he had
never heard of 'the negro who was
supposed to be working for him. Dr.
Harris sympathetically listened to
Turley's story, and the police were
notified, with the result stated above.

' Petting Is Expensive
Greenville, April 17. ? South Caro
lina law Would under certain condi
tions permit kissing in public places
such as a fond adieu or joyful meet1
ing at a railroad station, a hotel
lobby, a front porch or even a street,
but the staging of what is coloqually
known as a "peftiting .party" on a
municipal thoroughfare and in front
of a "hot dawg" stand would be in
violation of the intent of the state and
municipal statutes.
This was the interpretation of the
law and*the ruling of Recorder Wyatt
Aiken this niorrting in police court,
when he pronounced a sentence of
$11 or 30 days each on Miss Louise
Williams and E. B. Griffin, ages
about 16 and 22, respectively. The
fines were paid at once.
? Testimony offered for the city was
that the couple were seen kissing
while sitting in an automobile on a
principal street .here lasft night while
the total volume of defense testimony
was that the couple had not kissed.
