Shoeless Wooer Chased
. . ’
By His Girl's Father
The Japanese custom of discard
ing one’s shoes at the front door
will not make a hit in Atlanfa.
That became apparent Tuesday
when W. T. Carver, 22 years old,
of 122 McAfee street was arraigned
iln Police Court before Judge John
son, |
Carver it was alleged, called on
a young woman in Kast Atlanta. Af
ter they returned from a picture .
show, Carver entered the girl's home
for a call, but removed his shoes at
the front door to keep from waking
the girl’s papa. But father awoke and |
chased him from the house, then
telephoned the police. Carver was
found in his stocking feet and t,a,kea.‘
to police station. Judge Johnson |
assessed a fine of $25 or thirty days
in the workhouyse, and Carver, now
wearing shoes paid the fine.
The judge also admonished Carver
that hereafter when he calls on a
lyoung woman to keep his shoes on.
loaded revolvers were found con
cealed in Jester's clothing. A stica
of dynamite, with a fuse, and all
ready to be set off, was discovered in
Jester's bed. Another revolver was
taken from Clyde Thomas, while a
hack saw was found in the supply
box of J. C. Matthews. Beveral
rounds of cartridges also were found.
THOROUGH . INVESTIGATION,
Warden Clarke was in conference
Tuesday with Solicitor Boykin, and
Ilt was made known a thorough probe
will be conducted into the manner in
which the weapons and ammunition
were smuggled into the prison.
It was thought likely other arrests
might be made for complicity in the
plot.
In this connection, it was expected
that Colson, Ferrell and Presnell
would be grilled with the view of
unearthing further information.
Neither so far has admitted any part
in the conspiracy, it was s=ald.®
The fact that the plot was shrewd
ly manipulated officials said, was
demonstrated by the smuggling of
the weapons and ammunition to Jes
ter and his confederate despite the
special close watch that has been
kept on them since the recent escape
made by Jester, Webb and another
convict It showed, they suggested, |
that the convicts had ample outside
aid.

many labor men are equally ready to
