PAID HIS LICENSE
TO YELL, AND DID
When Green Marlon, a negro fruit
vender. Thursday afternoon spelled
about different kinds of fruit In yells
that could be heard for three and four
blocks, he In said to have attracted the
attention of the whole community and
awoke Policeman Swords, who resides
near Washington and Fulton streets.
The officer promptly ran out to the
wagon and told the negro he must not
yell so loudly.
“Well, I guess I can. I pay a license
to yell," replied the negro.
"The city doesn't Issue any license
for anybody to yell, and you'll have to
subside or I’ll lock you up,” responded
Swords.
"Well. I’d like to see you try It,"
again spoke the negro. He was accom
modated.
In police court Friday morning both
Officer Swords and Officer Payne stated
they had received much complaint
about the yelling of fruit venders In the
streets. Recorder Broyles said he
would lmposo no fine this time, but
warned Marlon he must put on the soft
pedal hereafter.

Has Recorder Nash Broyles been con
jured?
According to Fannie Scott, a young
negro women, the popular recorder Is
under a spell, cast over him by Clyde
Yancey, another negro woman, and
consequently does the bidding of the
Yancey Woman.
This hoodoo story came out In the
police court Friday morning during
the trial of the Scott woman. Clyde
Yancey was the principal witness
against the Scott woman, and the lat
ter was fined 215.75 for disorderly con
duct.
A few days ago, Sarah Scott, a sis
ter of Fannie, was arraigned In court
and was given 60 days In the stockade,
Clyde Yancey was the principal wit
ness.
"That Yancey has got Judge Broylee
conjured,” neserts Fannie Scott. "8he
has been boasting of It and says she
Is going to put my whole family In the
etockade—that Judge Broyles Just can't
help putting us there. She has got two
of us there now and I guess the rest
will follow soon. She has got the
Judge conjured and he Just has to do
whatever she wants him to do. Ho had
sura better go and see a doctor or
somebody and try to get that spell off
him.”
The Yancey woman merely smiled a
significant smile when sho heard of
Fanle Scott's unique charge.
Judge Broyles is positive In his de
nial that he has been conjured.
“If I have been conjured, I don’t
know It," said the recorder In feigned
seriousness. “I haven't felt any pe
culiar sensations so far, unless my feel
ings over the G«irgla-Tech football
situation can be ascribed to the action
of the conjur bag. I haven't been play
ing golf during the past few days,
either, but I don't think this Is due to
Rny particular spell, further than the
present wet spell."
Whether Judge Broyles has really
been conjured will be proven when
Clyde Yancey has the remaining mem
bers of Fannie Scott’s family sent to
the etockade.
The charge that the recorder Is un
der a peculiar spell revives memories
of the wonderful story some time ago
of a Mrs. Marks, who declared she had
hypnotised Judge Broyles nnd forced
