BIG HUNT IS ON
FOR ‘OUTLAW JOE’
State and Federal Officers Have
Been After Him for a
Year.
ALWAYS SLIPS AWAY
If He Cut Notch in Rifle for Every
Time He Shot a Man, There
Wouldn't Be Any
Butt Left.
Hillsboro, N. C.,—Nobody will sleep
in Hillsboro or the country around un
til “Outlaw Joe” Riley is caught.
“Outlaw Joe” is a moonshiner, slack
er and assassin. If he cut a notch in
his rifle for every time he shot a man,
there wouldn’t be any butt left to his
gun.
For a year the state and federal of
ficers have been after him, but lie al
ways slips away, says Sheriff Rose
man of Orange county.
“I’ll pay a good price to anybody
who brings him in, dead or alive!”
Shoots United States Collector.
Riley is sought by Uncle Sam for
moonshining and for shooting Deputy
Collector T. M. Arrowsmith, a revenue
officer. He is wanted by the army for
refusing to register for the draft. And
he is wanted by the state for several
Shootings and for jumping bail.
Recently he was caught making j
moonshine whisky. But Joe isn’t one j
of the surrendering kind. He raised his .
shotgun and fired a charge full into
the face of Deputy Arrowsmith. By
some miracle Arrowsmith’s eyes were
missed, but the rest of his face is si ill
full of small shot.
Recently Joe Riley shot through the
head a companion whom he accused
of having reported his moonshine
still to the revenue officers. L’he com
panion recovered, and so loyal are Hie
members of Riley’s gang to their lea
der that he rejoined him.
Riley was arrested for this shooting
afler lie had first jumped from the sec
ond-story window of his home when
the officers came to get him, and had
shot six times at Deputy Collector A.
P. Cates. He was placed under bond,
but he jumped it and fled to the hills.

Fired Full Into the Face of Deputy
Arrowsmith.
He has a wife and children living near
the village of Caldwell, N. C.
He is as famous down here in Or
ange county as the notorious Allen
family is in the mountains of Virginia.
Riley used to come boldly to Hills
boro three or four times a week and
spend his money in the general store.
Once he flashed a roll of thirty-two <
hundred-dollar bills.
Deputy Arrowsmith, the particular
enemy of Riley, is the right-hand man
of Col. Vanderford. chief of the reven
ue raiders in the Carolina district.
He's Efficient Raider.
He has the reputation of being one <
of the most efficient raiders in the
country. In stature and appearance he
greatly resembles the ascetic, thin
faced movie actor, William S. Hart—
and he is just as “quick on the draw.”
He has an almost uncanny “nose” for
stills—they say he can smell one two
miles away.
Arrowsmith works practically alone,
except that occasionally Sheriff Rose
man of Orange county accompanies
him on his raids.
His methods differ from those of the
Virginia moonshine raiders in that he
does his work entirely at night. With 1
an electric flashlight to aid him, its
only an excellently camouflaged dis
tillery path in the woods that escapes
him.
Twelve to Bury Giant.
London.—It required 12 men to bury i
Jonathan Swan, the Leyland giant
The coffin measured three feet wide,
six feet nine inches long, and with the
body weighed 1,192 pounds. No hearse
could be secured large enough to carry
the remains. The 12 men took 80 min
utes to get the coffin into position in .
the grave.
SCOUTING AND AMERICANISM ‘
“Speaking of America,” says Chief
Scout Executive James E. West, “one
of the biggest movements afoot today
is the Americanization movement. Be
ing an American means something to
day, when the eyes of the world are
turned to America as the hope and
leader of mankind.
“Scouting goes hand in hand with
Americanization. A scout who lives up
to his oath, to do his duty to God and
country, to keep his scout law, to be
helpful to all people at all times, is
making himself into an American of
the best kind. It isn’t necessary to
have been born on American soil to be
a good American.
“Some of our finest scouts, most loy
al to our flag, most active in Liberty
loan and other patriotic work, first
saw light under foreign skies. But
that doesn’t matter. They are Ameri
cans just the same, because they stand
for what America stands for and be
lieve in America as the land of hope,
opportunity and brotherhood.
“Stop and ask yourself if you are
being an American—the right sort of
American, through and through. You
want to serve your country. Every
scout loves America. Maybe some of
you envied your older brothers and
friends who had a chance to fight for
her, die for her. You need not envy
anyone. You can live for America, and
that is the greatest service you can
offer her just now. She needs you.
Be Americans!”
