 MT Hays is one of the most popular young men in Woodstock, and has a host of friends there and elsewhere who will regert to learn of the sad accident. He was accompanied to this city by an inti- mate friend, who has remained at his bedside ever since their arrival here

well-hidden hollows in the mountains,
through which run streams whose wa
tiers are always just cool enough to
give the distillery worms the right
touch.
Capture of Betsy.
Betsy has year by year become
more and more daring, and more
beautiful. A few months ago she be-
came extremely bold in her sales of
whisky, going to and from the stills.
sometimes alone, and sometimes with
male companions. Finally the state
authorities decided it was time to
stop her, so they sent three deputy
sheriffs for Betsy. The deputies had
the good fortune to find her, on foot,
and very near the South Carolina line,
which she knows perfectly well.
When she saw the three deputies
coming, she knew they were not her
friends, and made bold dash for the
line. AS a sprinter she is a success,
and her running was like that of the
Grecian girls who competed in the
ancient Olympian games. The depu-
ties did not stop to admire, however,
but gave chase and dashed across the
state line, coming up with and taking
hold of the stout and charming Betsy
about hundred yards over in South
Carolina.
Betsy was nearly out of breath
from the run, but had voice enough
left to give a signal, which brought
out of the thick bushes near by five
tough-looking moonshiners, any one
of whom was ready and willing to
die for Betsy any time. Betsy had a
good-sized revolver slung about her
waist, and very poorly concealed by a
checked apron, but her moonshine
friends made no concealment what
ever of the pistols which they had
in hand, and while they fingered
these, they parleyed with the detain-
ing deputies, letting them understand
that they were willing to pay cash
for Betsy's appearance in cot" and
that they were 'willin' to put up S25
in greenbacks if Betsy could be sot

whisky, and SO it came about that
then and during the remainder of the
month of April Betsy sold nine bar
rels of the stun, some of 1t in Polk
county. some in Rutherford. and some
over the line in South Carolina. But.
although she kept in touch with her
business all the while, she showed up
at the term of Polk county superior
court the second week in May. es-
corted always by a party of her moon
sinner friends. She wore a different
dress and different hat on each of
three days. this being the most i'm
portant event in her existence to date.
Got Cases Continued.
There were three Indictments
against her. but she contrived, on one
plea or another. and by means of tre-
mendous lot of swearing by moon
sinner friends, to get the case contin-
ued, always putting up cash bond for
appearance. She thus invested 5000.
Then the attention of the judge was
directed more particularly toward her.
and he found the extent of her work
and the damage she was doing in parts
of two states, in her open violations
of she law. She must have felt in
the very air that something was wrong,
