Crow, of Hail county, left last Satur day afternoon for Coster, South Dakota, where, last week, Chub Wall, notorious as a North Georgia desperado, was ar rested by the sheriff of the county there. He will return to this city with his pris oner as soon as possible. Last August Wall escaped from the Hall county jail-the first prisoner to effect his escapo since Sheriff Crow lins been in office. He was furnished a saw by parties outside the prison and left letters to the sheriff, the jailor and others explaining in detail his planB as executed for gaining liberty. For nearly a year Sheriff Crow has been tracking Wall, informing the she riff in the Dakota town a few days ago that Wall wa? in that place, and locating him exactly. The arrest was made o. this informa tion. The sheriff of this county will be at an expense of about ?575 in recover ing the fugitive. The Governor's reward is $100. The prisoner wat) not a Hall couuty|ward, but was being kept safely here for the Rabun oounty authorities. For the past seven year? not a court has passed in Rabun, .but one, in which there was not a oharge of some kind against Wall or his family. He last year killed a man in Rabun, was sentenced to hang, the sentence reduced to life im prisonment, and he was afterwards par doned.

At last the burro did as he had done out West Tb? rest of the story Billie can tell best He came down from bis back (the do scent was quick,) Over him jumped the burro and gave a big kick. But Billie was determined the burro to break. If it did create a llurry or a big earth quake. Just after this unusual and great catas trophe The boys of the city all extended sym pathy.
