Mr.. VIM. E. DODGE was a controlling di-
rector of the Delaware & "Lackawaxen'
railroad las jim Fisk used to call it, and
powerful enough to prevent the running
of Sunday trains. No Don has the good
mar departed this life, than his wicked
partners in the railroad business have put
on Sunday trains. They say these are a
necessity, that they are an evidence of
Christian civilization, and not to run them
is wrong. This is the logic of the express
train times we live in, and shows that the
good Mr.. Dodge was a man of the stage
coach period.

More About the Three-COrners
Outlaws.
Little Rock Democrat, 8.


The Three Corners is q name applied
to that section of country whereMont
gomery, Yell and Garland counties
Joln. The country is rough, broken.
and almost uninhabited, and 20 far
from communication that it is difficult
TO get accurate accounts from the
posse Of men now hunting the outlaws
down. The best account yet pub
llshed about the affair is found in the
Dardanelle Post of the I'd, the news
being direct from the scene. Blocker
was captured last Thursday morning
week ago. He was betrayed by one of
his friends who, after being arrested,
told where he got his meals and water,
which was a certain spring. Deputy
Sberifs Charles Hearl and Hunni.
cutt, with native named Wander
slice, went to the spring and lay in
ambush. Alter time Mrs. Spears
came to the spring with bucket of
prepared food and gave three whistles.
No one answered, and she looked up
the hillside and called Blocker's
name. He still did not answer, and
the women discovered the men in
waiting, and hurriedly went away.
Blocker was found within half hour
from this time, and was easily cap.
tured. He is now in Jail at Dan
vile.
Blocker separated from the Daniels
boy because he was sick, and they sus-
pected that he would surrender and
give them away. They abused him.
and he feared them too much to re-
main with them.
Bud Caldwell was killed on the
Sunday following. The dogs were on
hot trail and the outlaws whipped
around on the brow of the hill and
came in behind the pursuing party.
Caldwell and Carter were both shot in
the back. Carter is still living and is
at the dwelling OF Mr.. Cobb Keener.a "a
well to do farmer Of Perry county.
There has been no rain in that
country for several weeks. The men
suffer from heat and the want of water.
They have to send regular trains back
for provisions. They are determined,
however, and will finish their work
properly.

recruited from the English penal col

South Wales. Ticket. of leave men
and old convicts who had served their
term were given good riddan ce by the
colonial authorities, and their presence
was soon felt by the rapid increase Of
crime. All manner of atrocities were
perpetIated, murder, theft, and rob-
berries, butwhat reused the people was
the frequent recurrence Of deyastat-
ing fires. Several times the oity had
been destroyed by ipoendlary con.
fagrations. Lynch laW tried once or
