THE CAVE ROBBERY.
The HiehwOymen Known, and
Rewards offered for Their
Apprehension.

A note received from Geo. Croghan,
one Of the proprietors of Mammoth
cave, yesterday, gives some interesting
facts touching the recent highway
exploit near Cave city,
ITO the Editor of the Courier-Journal
MAMMOTH CAVE, September 6.-I
wish you would state that a reward of
$3.50 will be given by the cave owners
and stage proprietor for the capture of
the robbers and on the conviction of
the same. The ave proprietors will
give $3.50, the stage owners 800.
The description Of the men is as
follows: The man who relieved the
parties Of their valuables was a person
about five feet ten inches in height,
rather compactlymade, lightish- brown
hair, mustache and whiskers of light
tawny color, cut rather close; wore a
handkerchief about his mouth, red,
checkered with white spots, a drab
hat, light-colored clothes, and was
armed with two r%evolvers, dark
colored. He was quick in bis move
ments, while his companion seemed to
be sluggish in his. He, the partner,
wore dark clothes, dark hat, trowsers
in his boots, black mustache and
goatee, and was armed with a Rem.
ington or Smith 4 Wesson revolver Of
large pattern, nickel. plated, and one
of smaller size; had around his waist
a belt full Of cartridges. Both had
gum or oil suits, which they either
wore or rode upon. One road a sorrel
horse and the other a dark brown.
Persons have recognized the mar il
light clothes as a party hailing from
Ohio county, who was formerly q
writing-master in Barren county, anC
a very bad character. Another, how.
ever, says that be is a man who livel
at present in Monroe county, anC
who at one time robbed the United
States mail in Texas, and was impris.
oned for that offense and subsequent,
pardoned. We pursued them vigor.
ously, but we're unable to overtakt
them. Both of the men had beer
taken for United States marshals
Their story about their being moon
sinners was humbug. Evorybod,
recognized them as they Oame through
the country, and they can be easil,
identified. Gro, CRoeHAN,

A MEMPHIS ANNIVERSARY.

To-day is the %anniyer aryo of the discov-
cry OF the Mississippi river by the Span
ish explorer, DeSoto, in 1911. From the
bluffs on which tho prosperous city of
Memphis now stands, he first beheld the
mighty Father Of Waters rushing towards
the gulf. What emotions would have
filled his soul if be could have pulled
aside the curtain Of hturity and looked
upon the scene that is now daily presented
on the Ohickasaw bluffs. Here he found
the Chickasaw indians in all the pride
and dignity Of their native ~Splendor,
smoking the pipe of peace beneath the
grand old forest trees. Smoking is still a
%favorite habit with the residents Of the
Chickasaw bluffs, and the best article is
Sol. Coleman's No, 10 cigar, found at Slt
Main street.
