TOOK BOY AWAY
At HORSE BRANCH
Queer Turn Taken BY AL
legged BOOtlegger.
CAPTURED BY U. S. OFFICER,
But Released on Account Of
the Absence Of Prosecut-
ing Witnesses.
The Owensboro Inquirer says:

Inc ON6USDOIO
Logan Gary was arrested at Horse
Branch by Deputy U. S. Marshal
Ament Thursday on the charge Of
selling whiskey without license and
taken to Leitchfield for examining
trial. The witnesses which were to
appear against Cary failed to show
up and it was necessary to release
him on account of lack of evidence,
Gary was the man whom Ament was
after several weeks ago. Gary, with
several other men, were camping in
the west end of the city, and when
officers Day and Ament went to the
tent, Gary escaped and Powell, an
other one of the party, was shot
thu ongh the wrist. Powell escaped
and was later arrested and lodged in
the workhouse to serve term for
breach OF the peace.
One peculiar feature of the incident
was that Gary kidnapped Romeo Mas
terson, CT Harse Branch, nephew OF
Mr.. Ament, a 13-year-Old boy. The
boy left home last Saturday and was
caught by Gary in Central City. II
is not known what the boys intention
was for leaving home, or Gary's OBJ
ject for the kidnapping the boy, I'M
less it was to entrap the marshal and
do him bodily injury. It was first un-
derstood that the man was holding
the boy for ransom, but as none was
claimed. it is thought this w2s a mis-
take. The boys mother offered re-
ward of 500 for information leading
to his whereabouts.
Mr.. Ament was notified Tuesday
that the boy had left home and later
found that he was in Cary's possess
ion.
The marshal went to Horse Branch
and got trace OF the runaway and
found them aboard n freight train
Thursday afternoon. He arrested the
an aid sent the boy home. The boy
refused to talk much, but he said 1t
NaH his intention to go to Dayton, o.
He also said that Gary treated him
well, having given him money on sew
eral occasions, and that he only had
to beg once.
NOTE-After having investigated the
matter pretty thoroughly we are OF
the opinion that the Masterson boy
was not kidnapped by Gary but just
happened to fall in company with and
voluntarily accompanied him.

Bad Runaway.

A team of four mules driven by
Mr. Horace French, ran away near
Prentis last Saturday. Mr.. French was
hauling sawlogs and had three on
the wagon and on starting down the
hill near the ThOroughfare bridge a
splinter on the log jobbed the lead
wheel-mule which caused it 30 throw
Mr.. French. The team began to run
and when near the foot Of the hill
and within a short distance of the
approach to the thoroughfare bridge
one of the fore wheels broke, caus-
ing the logs to slip down, thus lock-
ing the wagon.The sudden stop threw
the mules down in a heap, breaking
the leg of one Of the wheelers. Mr.,
French was painfully bruised, but II
is not thought that he is seriously
hurt. Had the wheel not broken, 1t is
thought the whole team would have
gone over thhe high precipice at the
approach of the bridge.

PARTICULARS OF
VOTING CONTEST
The Ballots and How They
Are Voted.
MATTER MADE PLAIN TO ALL
Ohio County People Urged
To Make the Race Large
And StrCng.

For the benefit of candidates pros
pective candidates and their friends
we are called upon TO further explain
a ruling in regard 30 The Heralds
voting contest.
All ballots clipped from The Herald
are good for ten days only. This plan
az explained in a recent issue, is to
avoid the accumulation OF large
patches Of these ballots, while it gives
ample time for them to be clipped and
returned for deposit in the ballot box
in this office.
When a person pays as much as
year or more OH subscriptions Certif~
icate is made out which is good for
the number Of votes indicated-twen-
ty for each dollar paid. These Certif-
icates are filled out in The Herald
office and nowhere else, and they
are not good unless countersigned by
one of the editors of The Herald.
They, like the clipped ballots, are
good for only ten days from date OF
issue, and for the same reason as in
the-one-vote ballot case. When sub
scription is sent to us by mail and the
sender names the candidate for whom
he wishes his votes to be cast, a
Certificate is at once filled out. indi-
eating the number of votes called for,
by whom cast, (that Is, the name OF
the subscriber paying), and Is depos-
tied In the ballot box, which is kept
locked and in readiness at all times.
After being counted by the judges,
these Certificates are preserved, as
are also the clipped ballots, 50 that
the subscriber and the candidate can
see at any time that the vote has been
recorded as requested.
Candidates or subscribers may take
these Certificates from the office II
they so desire, but they must be
polled in the ballot box before the
date expires in order to be counted.
By this method candidates can form
a very fair idea of how each stands at
all times, while 1t also gives ample
time for elaboration in the premises
We intend that this contest shall be
absolutely fair and impartial to all
candidates or parties interested, hence
these stipulations. We are certainly
using our best efforts in this direc-
ton,
We are rather surprised that more
candidates have not entered the race
by this time. The presents are GER
tainly handsome and valuable, and
the offer is genuine on our part. The
presents are worth spending both time
and money TO secure. ANY lady OF
gentleman living in Ohio county may
enter the race, or be entered by a
friend or relative. 1t is free for all
under the conditions named. We hope
the people will wake up and take
more interest in this matter. You
can enter yourself or name friend
or relative living in the county. We
hope to see big bunch Of candidates
within the next week or two. There
is time enough before the close tc
give all splendid chance. We invite
the closest inspection of the whole
business.
