Sylvester Lady, a lad of 20 years, a fugitive from the mountain distrlrt of Kentucky, was arrested here this morning by Sheriff Mazo and turned over to officers from Kentncky, who came here to get him. Lady is charged with rape. He broke jail and escaped from Kentucky several weeks ago. • The hoy was arrested at the Gardner Ice house. He at first denied ever being arrested or having ever been in Kentucky. When confronted by the sheriff and jailer from his home county, however, he confessed being the one wanted. The charge against the boys is a I serious one. It is alleged that he forced a woman of his county at the point of a revolver to submit to rape. He was arrested and indicted by the grand jury of Jackson County, Kentucky. While in jail at McKee, Ky., awaiting trial on the chargo, tie. with another prisoner by the name of Harrison, escaped from the jail. The men used a big pipe wrench, which was passed to them from the out-1 side to get away. HIrrison was ar- . rested a few days after the escape 1 but Lady got away from the state. He arrived in Greencastle several weeks ago and has been living at the home of William Lady on the Strip. On last Thursday morning Sheriff

Tyra Lainhart of McKee received a letter from Mrs. Lady telling him that the boy was here. She told the sheriff that the boy was here and that he had admitted to her that he had broken jail in Kentucky. She stated that the boy was very bothersome to her and said that he had told lies about her and her husband. Sheriff Lianhart and Jailer John Farmer immediately came to Greencastle, arriving here this morning. Sheriff Maze was asked to make the arrest for fear the boy would run when he saw the Kentucky officers. When arrested the boy had an old breach-loading shot gun which he says he bought. The officers left this afternoon with their prisoner for Kentucky. The sheriff says that McKee is in the mountain country of Kentucky. The boy, iw says, lived with his parents about ten miles from McKee. The boy Is a bad character and has served a term in the Kentucky Boy’s Reform School. Ho says that the woman whom the boy attacked was of a fine family. The boy, he says, attacked the woman one afternoon as she was on her way to a spring for a bucket of water.

Last night fire again swept over the town of Cloverdale, and one of its best and most enterprising industries was consumed. The A. N. Holloway saw mill and planing mill near tlie north part of the town was comIdetely destroyed. The lumber already sawed and piled about the mill was saved. The loss is estimated, at $■',000 with some $1,500 insurance. The Are started about 11 o’clock latt night, supposedly from a spark from a passing Motion engine. The plant was far gone when the fire was first seen. There was no adequate way to fight the flames, yet by hard work the piles of sawed lumber were saved. The plant is a complete wreck. The mill was one of the most enterprising industries of the town. It was well equipped and was turning out much mill work of excellent quality. It is a coincidence that two years ago in October the mill burned down. It had been rebuilt and supplied with tlie best of machinery. Mr. Holloway is very much discouraged at this second destruction of his plant.

KELLEY’S

Last day of the Hospital Fair was the most beautiful one of the three, so far as the weather was concerned. It was warm and bright, and a considerable crowd was in from the country. The booths were much depleted by afternoon today showing that there had been a good sale. What remained was rapidly ehanging hands, and all hade fair to be gone before night. A new scheme was started today. Small tickets attached to strings were tied to the buttons of all the citizens who could be compelled to surrender by the solicitation of the fair workers (this may be interpreted as you please). After tlie ticket was attached the victim was informed that it was worth from a dime to a dollar and contributed according to to his interest in the hospital. Nearly every one was wearing a ticket this afternoon. Shortly after 2:30 the articles remaining on tlie booths were prepared to be sold at auction tonight, beginning at 7 o’clock. Just what the receipts and expenditures are is not yet definitely known. It is hoped that by Monday all will have been tabulated and the finance committee will he able to make a report.

Watson Goes Through. Hon. Janies E. Watson will pass through Greencastle on the VandaPn 8:55 next Monday. An effort is being made to have the train held long enough for Mr. Watson to make a ten minute speech.
