ish of the seams, the belt
loops.
You will appreciate
these niceties even

that strikes you is the
fashionable cut. Custom
tailor style, yet at a price
that fits a modest purse.

Officer S. McKinney
Has Exciting Chase
Constuble Scott McKinney of Bag-
well, was in Paris Tuseday, related
an exciting exjn rience that he had
with a suspicious looking yioung
negro last Friday at Detroit. When
the easthound passenger train reach
ed the place the negro. a slim young
fellow about 22 years old and nearly
six fret tall, stepped to the ground
on the far side.
The constable was at the dep^
and the agent being attracted by the
negro's actions called his attention
to him and told him to take a good
look at him. The constable walked
around the train and questioned the
negro and he gave evasive apswers.
He claimed that his home was three
miles from Detroit but couldn't t' II
on whose plnce he lived.
When the train started to pull out
the negro hopped the blind baggage,
ft then occurred to the constable that
he answered the description of a ne-
gro wanted In Dallns on suspicion of
being Implicated in two or three
atrocious murders of recent occur-
rence.
It was too late to stop the train
and the constable jumped in his fliv-
ver and beat it to Bagwell and was
waiting for it when it came in. He
put the negro under arrest and start-
ed back to Detroit with him.
While they were going through a
deep cut just before reaching De-
triot the negro seized the hand of
the officer on the steering wheel and
caused the auto to shift and nearly
upset. While the constable was try-
ing to right it the resro jump 3d out
and made his escape. *
.The officer got on the negro's trnll
after righting Ills car and got In sight
of him. He chased him for a long
distance, firing several shots. The
negro in going through a hardwire
fence had a suit torn off, but had
another under It.
The constable pursued the negro in
the wood north of Detroit until he
emptied his pistol while chasiriT him
a young farmer, Calvin Honea, came
out of his house to see what was the
matter and Mr. McKiney called to him
to stop the negro.
.The young man went In pursuit un-
armed and chased him four or five
miles until he reached the bank of
a creek, where he overtook him and
they clinched. The negro got the
farmer's cheek between his teeth and
the latter gouged his finger in the
negro's eye, and got the negro's flng
er between his te*th.
While rolling on the ground they
fell off In a hole of water where they
continued to struggle until they fin-
ally pulled apart. The negro re-
newed his flight and Honea abandon
ed further pursuit.
Later In the day betweet forty and
fifty people in the surrounding coun-
try scroured the weeds in search of
the negro but. failed to run hlni down.
They feel confident that he is wanted
for some crime.
The suit of clothes that the negro
left on the barbwirc fence was brand
ed "F Bar F" When Constable Mc-
Kinney took charge of him at Bag-
well ho relieved him of a brand new
single-blade pocket knife with a blade
as long as a dirk.—Paris News.
