The Lexington Dispatch. Wednesday, May 21, 1902. Sow They Were Caught. Chicago, May 16 ?Chief Wilkie, of the Secret Service, in discussing the Greene-Gaynor case, said today: "It has been over two years sicce these men were indicted for a conspiracy to defraud the United States government, and last February they jumped their bond and went to Quebec. Then the work began which ended today in their arrest, though it nroo nrininallv rklftrmoH fhftfe fchfi IV "?D VllglUUUJ dash should be made last Wednesday. "Frank Burke reached Quebec on March 10, and in the name of Bennefc, immediately began the study of the movement of the meD. For a time their habits were eratic, but in a few weeks they became more firmly settled : in life there and about the time the couple were arrested, one was accustomed to take a walk to the poe ^ > - ~r" office every day while the other usually remained in the front entrance ; of the hotel. The case was talked over and it i \ was believed that yesterday was the j time to make the arrest."

Montreal, May 16?Col. John F. Gaynor and Capt. B. D. Green reached here today and are at the Windsor hotel, under the close guard of Canadian detectives and United States secret service operators, who arrested them yesterday and won in a sensational chase by a tugboat and special train to this city. Mrs. Gaynor arrived shortly after her husband, but, despite her pleadings, was not allowed to see the prisoners.

"I say, said Ned Dalton, as he poked up the camp fire, "why didn't Bates aDd Sue Parker get married. "When I was at the Snake Creek protracted meeting last spring it sortor struck me that they was going to run the same brand." "Well," Raid Jim Walker, as he pillowed hie head on the saddle, "that was the general calkerlation, but it all got busted up on account of what happened at the fish fry the Jones's folks give down on the Spanish Camp on the San Bernardo." "What, Bill didn't get on no hifalutin' brszo like he's allers doin', and stir up a row," inquired Ned. "No, it warn't that," replied Jim, "but it might jest as well have been, 'cause Jim Bates predickament would've kDocked any courtin' match highn'er 'er kite. You see all the gals from Damon's Mound and up along Turkey Creek wer' at the fish fry, and everybody was having 'er hog killin' time, but the day wss hot, and while Bill Bates was dancin' with Sue Parker every set, so as to keep her penned up from the rest of the boys, he got a sweatin,' worser'n 'er niger at 'er 'lection. Bill knew when he got to sweatin' he wouldn't smell good enough to stay in company, so he asked two or three fellers who were loafin' 'round watin' fur the grub to be set out, to go up the creek 'er piece and have ?er swim. They was willin' and when they got a bend in ther creek a short distance from tber fish fry they commenced to shuck ther clothes. Bill he pulled off everything: 'cep'in' his shirt, then sot down on 'er log to cool off. Thar wus 'er yaller jackets' nest in the log and the bulge of Bill Bate's anatermy was kiverin' the hole to tho nest, and while Bill sot thar the yaller jackets held 'er convershun orsuthin' of the kind and made up ther minds that they wus goin' ter raise ther blockade. I guess everybody knows that your don't have to spit in 'er jacket's face to make him mad 'cause ther insect is born mad and dies in ther same fix. While Bill nrnn unnsfin! nn fVlflr 1 r\f* Q/trof AVlin' nao iwoviu uu uuo& iv/^f uv*w?vw?M aDd 'er coolin' of himself the yaller jackets riz in their wrath and Bill? he riz with 'em. They lifted him like a torpeder; and when be hit ther ground he wuz bleatin' lonnder'n 'er bull calf, and 'er hundred yaller jackets wuz under his shirt, spurrin' bim in ther flanks, and makin' him buck over ground like an unbroken stud. He clawed at his shirt and yelled to the boys to come and help bim knock ther darned things off, but the boys laid down behind logs and told him they warn'fc no durned Fools. Well, ther yaller jackets kept poppin' ther spurs to him first on me side, then on t'other till Bill got 3orter crazy, and he skedaddled down ther creek, beadin' square for ther Bsh fry. Sue Parker with a lot of 11 1_ J J 1 1 L_ jiner gais aau er parcel 01 guiuute wuz up the road pickin' blackberries' and when they suddenly heard ther ill firedst yellin' and snortin' and bher next minute thar waz Bill Bates' *alloppin' past them faster'n a scared ;ayote and tryin' his level best to 3rag his only remain' garment over bis head. Ther gals weakened on bber first glimpse and made 'er break for the bush, ecreamin' and askin' what it wuz, kinder innercent like, as if they didn't know, and ther fellers who wuz ga'lantin' 'em turned sorter red in the face and said they guess somebody's horse broke loose somewhere up the creek and that tbey bad Jjetter go up and help cotch ther anermal. In no time tber whole fish fry wuz talkin' of Bill Bates's ecanclerlous actions, and Aunt Dorothy Briggs said it was a burnin' shame, and said he oughter be hung, but Widdfir "RnlMorlr Raid hifl dftddv wuz took down with ther janders 'afore Bill wuz bom, and she thought insanity wuz in Bill's blood, considerin' as how she had often notice a curious look in his eye. Ther thiDg wuz talked about all over ther neighborhood and Bill writ to Sue Parker explainin' how it happened but sbe said he was diegraced in the whole community and she didn't want nothin' to do with him. Bill also heard it talked around that her folks Baid they'd put the dogs on him if he ever come nigh ther house again and feelin' bad over it, be jined Pete Jennings' herd and went up ther Kansas trail. That's why Bill and Sue Parker never married." How It Is Done. The first object in life with the American people is to "get rich;" the second, bow to regain good health. The firBt can be obtained by energy, honesty and saving; the second, (good health) by using Green's August Flower.

Fort De France, Martinique, May 16.?A furious mob of enraged refugees and citizens tried to lynch fifty ghouls caught plundering the ruins of St. Pierrie. They have just retured here from the rescue work, and say that only by a display of arms and threats of shooting by the troops were the pillagers lodged safely in prison. The muttering crowd and grief stricken refugees roam the streets still, and it is feared that an . _ _ I other attempt will be made to deal summary justice to the vandals, caught red handed in their fearful work. The authorities are taking steps to put a stop to the vandalism. St. Thomas, D. W. I, May 16 ? St. Vincent advices show that it is impossible to get nearer than eight miles to the new crater that has appeared on the volcano on the island of St. Vincent. The old crater was filled by a beautiful lake, but that has disappeared, having either sunk in the bowels of the mountain or been blown away in the shape of 1 steam and scalding water over the surrounding country. Fissures that have appeared in the side of the volcano continue to throw hot vapor, and subterrean noises are heard miles from the mountains. The j trembling earth indicates a possibility of further discharges. Washington, May 16 ?Secretary Moody has received a cablegram from Commander McLean, of the Cincinnati, sayiDg that six thousand refugees have come to Fort de France, 1 three thousand to Kingston. Others 1 are suffering for food aDd water and there is great difficulty of relieving j and saving as so maDy are scattered over a large area. A latter dispatch announces the arrival of the Cincin- i nati at Fort de France and also the Collier Sterling, which took supplies from San Juan, Porto Rico. Dangerous If Neglected.

Says The Augusta Chronicle: UA well drilled to the depth of 500 feet in Colorado is spouting up hot water, steam and volcanic stones. Apparently Sam Jones1 uncomplimentary assertion in regard to Augusta is pretty nearly true almost any where in the United States." Sam Jones was not the first man to locate the abode of his Satanic Mejesty near Augusta and there is no just cause for Augusta to rejoice V>n/innon Vlnf TT7 Q f CI* fifoam OTld T7/"\l _ UCv auor UVJV n C?tti ^ ovuoui ciuu canic stones come from a 500 foot well in Colorado. Not many yearR ago a learned divine in the city of Charleston, in the course of a sermon, argued that the garden of Eden surely must have been located on that portion of the globe where Charleston now 6tands. Some wicked newspaper man of the $orth took up the discussion and dicated tobacco .application, is le or inner skin, flow of mucus, blood, and through the circulation ing the Stomach, Kidneys and other assumes the dry form, the breath adaches are frequent, the eyes red, in the ears.

SPECIFIC CO., Atlanta, Ga, said among other things that he would not undertake to dispute the assertion of the learned Charleston preacher and would admit his premises, but that there was one thing sure: If the garden of Eden had been located at Charleston, hell was not far off, only just over in Edgefield are neighbors, and we call the attention of The Chronicle to the foregoing, not to make it unhappy, but simply as a gentle reminder not to put on airs because there is a little smoke and fire in Colorado. Augusta should be careful not to bore deep and she should advise her neighbor Edgefield to keep well on the top of the crust. Edgefield may be a hot place for other things than politicians and it is just across the Savannah river. His Satanic Majesty may dwell just a little way under the surface.

A woman who has had experience with this disease, tells how to prevent any daDgerous consequences from it. She says: Our three children took whooping cough last summer, cur baby boy being only three months old, and owing to our giving them Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, they lost Done of their plumpness and came out in much better health than other children whose parents did not use this remedy. Our oldest little girl would call lustily for cough syrup between whoops.?Jessie Pinkey Hall, Springville, Ala. This Remedy is for sale by J. E. Kaufmann. How to Go to Heaven.

The bill provides that the monument shall be erected in the town of Sumter, upon a suitable location. Paradoxic il though it may seem, it is hard to touch a close man. A Borrowed Platform. Thomas Dixon, Jr., author of "The Leopard's Spot," says that he discovered the curious fact in reading the daily papers of the South issued in 1865 that every word on the platform of Booker T.
