BOOTLEGGERS
 EXPERIENCED.  Al. Parish and Ed. Hogle Given Heavy Fines and Sent to
 the Chain Gang.

Deputy w. l.. Stokes on Sun day arrested Al. Parish and Ed. Hogle on the charge of procur- ing and peddling liquor They were taken to Fayetteville and confined in the county jail for safe keeping until Tuesday when they were brought up and given q trial ill Judge Berry's court. The former was given S200 and costs Ill two cases and the latter Sf0o and costs in two cases. Parish's fine might not have been so heavy had he not made a break for liberty while the cases were on trial. Court was in ses- sion Ill one of the rooms over the First National Bank, and think ing the time was opportune to make lis getaway Parish made d break. In his haste, however, lie missed the stairway and ran into the room formerly occupied as an office by ]. S. Ewalt and was soon in limbo again.
 Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Pearson of Fayetteville came up to look after the interests of the state, and some interesting facts were brought out. It seems that brother of Parish is implicated in the business. He furnished the money to buy the whiskey and Hogle carried on the corres- pondence while Al Parish did the soliciting. They kept their supplies Ill the basement i'll the l Opera Block, and 1t was here where the whiskey was watered and doetored up so as to go as far as possible. They have been carrying on the business for probably six weeks, and the scheme was given away by par ty who turned in some money for whiskey which he failed to get. The other Parish boy skipped out and has not yet been appre- hended.
 Both Parish and Hogle were taken to Fayetteville and will be put on the county chain gang where they will have ample opportunity to ruminate on the error of their way.
