We were shown lump of the sill
yer ore taken from the mine on the
Lockhart farm in Green Township,

count on. A small portion of it was
taken to Cincinnati and placed in the
hands of an assayist, which yielded
nine dollars of pure silver. 1t is es.
timated that this ore will yield $50,
to the ton. We have not learned the
extent of the mine. Afew days more
will establish the fact.

Bold Robberies and Bur.
gIaries--Prompt Arrest of
the Guilty Parties.

For the credit of our county we
hope we may not often be called up
on to record such q series of bold
and outrageous robberies as occurred
last week in Buford, Danville and vi
cinity. Our Buford correspondent.
in another column, gives graphic
account of the affairs, which we be-
Iieve is substantially correct as far as
it goes, but at the time he wrote he
had not learned the sequel, which we
are now fortunately able to furnish.
1t seems that information of the
robberies was Immediately given to
our efficient Town Marshal, Mr.. Sam
Lyle, who from all the indications
concluded that Cincinnati would be
the most likely place in which to find
the perpetrators. Accordingly to
Cincinnati he went, and there, as he
anticipated, soon obtained a clue to
their hiding place, which proved to
be a house of Ill fame in the western
part of the city, kept by Mrs. Lane,
formerly of Danville, and an old ac-
quaintance of Swim, she having once
prosecuted him in our court for an
attempt to commit a rape. After a
vigilant watch of the premises for
nearly two hours, the Marshals pa
tience was rewarded by seeing both
Swim and Davidson enter the side
gate leading to the back of the house.
Calling Policeman Williamson of the
city police, whom he had previously
taken into his confidence, Lyle placed
him at the gate, to be within call if
he should need help, and boldly fol
lowed his men into the house, where
be surprised them both, sitting on
bed, in company with some of the
degraded women. So completely Ia
ken by surprise and dumbfounded
were the guilty young men by the
sudden apparition, that they made no
to resist, but at once obeyed
The summons to surrender, and sub
nitted to be handcuffed, though both
had revolvers.
Marshal Lyle then proceeded to
search the house, and turning up the
oed-clothes found some of the goods
stolen from Mr.. Moon of Buford. On
searching their persons he also found
! receipt for two of that gentleman's
inc beaver overcoats, which they had
eft at the hotel where they stopped.
These were recovered, together with
.bout $40 in nickels and 2 and 8 ct.
pieces, stolen from Mr.. Sanderson,
which they had deposited at the Gus
;om House, in the name of Mr.. Du-
7all.
The Marshal returned to this place
With his prisoners on Friday night,
md deposited them safely in the cal
Iboose, where they spent New Years
Eve and celebrated the opening of
he Centennial year in manner very
no doubt, from what they
had anticipated the day before.
On Monday they were taken before
Mayor Stoddard, but waived an ex-
and were held to bail in
he sum of $500 each, in default of
which they were committed to Jail.
Davidson and Swim are both quite
much over 21-and un-
married. Swim is said to be an or
,han, and Davidson is a son of Jas.
who was tried several
Tears ago for killing Vance in Buford.
