The officers came across the boats
between Clarks river and what is
known as the Plum Orchard" and
in one of them found two men, John.

knew where the Charity boat was,
about two hundred yards below, and
Butts was taken with the officers to
point it out to them, and Carter was
left, to remain under the espionage of
Officer Enoch Lynn.
The officer was armed with a Win.

ease, and asked the officer il he
thought they would arrest him and
take him to the lookup. The officer
to relieve the prisoners fears, replied
that he didn't think they would, and
about this time Carter struck him q
terrific blow and made for the woods
that skirted the bank.
As he disappeared in the gloom of |
the trees, the officer, who fortunate.
ly had not been knocked down by

FOUND GOLD WHILE
DIGGING BAIT.

Saturday afternoon two small boys
named Hudson and Smith, who were
playing about on Farley Place, un-
earthed near an old post quantity of
what appeared to be gold rings. They
were of the plain variety, and the
youngsters found twenty or twenty
five of them lying loose under the sur
face of the ground, before the supply
of them became exhausted.
The first one turned up was when
they were digging for bait. No one
knows from where the jewelry, which
proved to be cheap goods, came, but
the indications are that it was stolen
for genuine gold, and then thrown
away by the disappointed thieves.
