There was a beautiful Cocaine Case
today.
Principals: Bob Ivey and Eva Holmes,
colored.
And it was not at all promising at the
start.
They came out of the guard room to
gether apparently on pleasant terms.
Bob had Eva arrested yesterday for
raising a disturbance In front of his bar
ber shop on Center steet. He explained
this morning that her conduct was not
realb so had. She hi id merely called
out certain unpleasantries to hirn as he
was it tending so Ids business and had
made hirn mad. She had not cursed or
sworn. He seemed almost sorry that he
had Imd her arrested. He was very con
ciliatory. There seemed to be no reason
why he himself should have been brought
in.
Then Kva spoke.
“I was passin' by his shop, Jedge, wid
some money, $1.25, In my han\ dot
blongst to my white folks. I was goln’
to do store. Well, Boh he hollers out to
me to give him de quarter 1 owe him.
I sav fils aint none o* my money, hit
b'longst to de wldtefolks. Hen I did say
a few words to him, hut I was jes’
teasin’. But he got mad. He tole me
I better bring hirn dat quarter right
DEN. I tole him I'd get de quarter when
J got good and ready.”
“What did you owe hirn a quarter
for?" asked the Judge.
Hhe trembled sightly, as with sup
pressed excitement, and then said, as
if she had made up her mind beforehand
to say it and say it she would, —If It
changed the map of Europe:
"l owed him a quarter so some OO
CAINE I bought sum him yistiddy
mornln'.” She hesitated slightly over
the taboo word.
As she uttered this significant sen
tence, Boh turned bale. At least that
is the literary way of exjTesslrig the sit
uation He looked at her as if she were
a ghost, an unreasonable, preposterous
ghost, who was stating things that could
not possibly have any foundation on
fa< t. His gestures were eloquent of in
nocence. But it was noticed that from
that moment onward, heads of perspira
tion were making their appearance on
his ebony head and face.
Eva explained in the utmost detail how
it was customary Jo get coculfte from
Bob’s place. There was an alley at the
buck, a (Yack in the fence, etc., etc. She
had the cocaine on her person when she
was arrested, to prove It. O, Eva was
getting her revenge, all right.
Boh gazed at her with calm contempt.
“Judge,” quoth he, ”1 didn't think that
woman was low down enough to try to
fram-up this thing on me sure enough.
I knew she was aiming to do it. You
know whflt she done? When I goes to
my telephone yesterday evenin’ to get
de police to her, she runs off, all de way
up to dlshere, er-reft*-—Washington street,
and she buys dat cocaine from
and s. Mr. Ray, here, will tell
you hlsself, dat when me and him was
lookin’ fer he to arrest her, we found her
cornin’ down Broad street wid dat co
caine In her pocket. Why, Jedge, I aint
sold no cocaine since 1 served that 12
months. I runs a honest business. I
don’t need to sell no cocaine. Why,
Jedge. es I’d a sold her cocaine yester
day rm/rnin'. yon reckon I’d had her ar
rested wid de stuff on her?”
This was very convincing and Eva was
made out a designing and revengeful
fiend.
Then she spoke ;igain
“Jedge ” Hhe said quietly. **he tole me
last night In de guard house dates I
said anything about buying de cocaine
from him he’d tell you Jes' what he (lone
tole you. He ast me to say dat i got
It from and *s in Wash
ington street, and not to siy I got It
from him. And you can call up any o’
those people in there”—pointing to the
guard-room- “and ask them whait he
was saying to me last night.”

MORNING WITH THE RECORDER
Tans
The Judge called up a colored man,
and asked him:
He was a lltUe flustered, but managed
to say:
"I heerd him ask her not to say she
got something from him.”
“Got WHAT ” Inquired the Judge.
"Cocaine,” said the man sheepishly.
At this Kva dellVfTed herself of just
one "HUMPH." .She was corroboated
and propped up on all sides. Kindly
remark that she had told the exact and
naked truth.
The sweat began to drop off Bob’s
face.- But his protestations were In vain.
Another prisoner was called out, an es
caped convict, who could not possibly
be in league with either of the defend
ants.
He also had heard Bob begging her
not to sas- where she got the cocaine.
Bob was hound over to the City Court
for Selling Cocaine. under a bond of
SI,OOO. Eva was dismissed.
Bob, as he said himself, served twelve
months once before for this same of
fense, and ihe police have been trying to
get a proof on him again for the last
two years.

Lorimer Knew Nothing of
Transaction.
Frankfort, Ky.—Former United

Kentucky today issued a statement
explaining how his notes aggregating
$40,000 found their way into the now
deflint LaSalle Street Bank of Chi

0. B. Monday. It was reported that
this item was being investigated by
federal authorities in connection with
their inquiry into the institution’s
books,
Mr. Paynter wan a member of the
first senatorial committee that in
vestigated Lorimer’s election to the
senate and he voted in favor of J.or
imar’s retaining his esat.
"After my connection with the Lor
imer committee had ceased,” said Mr,
Paynter, “I needed $40,000 to complete
a business transaction, as I suppos
ed, for a few days. Mr. C. B. Mun
day told me he could take my four
notes for SIO,OOO each and use them
in Illinois banks—banks in which
Lorimer had no interest. Mr. Lori
mer knew nothing whatever about
this transaction. My deal was post
poned and I was unable to take care
of the letnand notes and it seenjs Mr
Monday took care of them through
the LaSalle Street Bank. However,
every dollar of the notes has been
pad excepting $2,076.45, which will be
paid on demand.”
