Guarded by Fifty Men.

Fifty picked deputy OnileO OldleS
shals accompanied the prison van in
which the two prisoners were taken for
arraignment before the federal commits
sioner.
For six years police in all parts of the
world have searched for Eddie Fay. An
accumulative reward of $4,000 has hung
over his head and was payable for his
arrest, either dead or alive. His thefts
are said to have been more than 81, 600, 900,
and his present fortune, a great part OF
which is invested in Chicago real estate,
is estimated at from $4,000 to $500, 900.
He kept a sizing of race horses, racing
them under the name of Frederick Gun
ningham. He posed as a sporty broker
and banker in London.
Fay and Harris were arrested through
a ruse. Detectives, attired as baggage
men, had watched the trunks from the
time they left Richmond. Harris went to
the depot to claim the boOty-laden boxes,
while Fay remained outside. When Har-
ris stepped to the desk, the detectives
bounced upon him. A desperate battle
followed. Fay started to run, but was
overtaken and beaten into submission.
Chicago. April 6.-When the news Of
the arrest was flashed to General James
z; Stuart. chief postofflee Inspector IN
Chicago, the latter official pulled worn
and tattered picture from his pocket 1t
was that of Eddie Fay.
"Since one day IN 1904 said the in
sDector grimly, and with some great de-
gree of relief, i've carried that picture.

Wis, to face a charge of robbing a post
office there. On the train he told me he
would kill me. Eddie escaped from the
jal there. Since then I've carried the
picture. l knew that if we met, Eddie
would try to make good his promise TO
kill me. / feel now as If a ton of iron
had been lifted from my shoulders.
He is the most desperate criminal In
the world said the inspector. HE would
not hesitate to murder a man. A hui
man life TO him is the cheapest thing in

Morning Session.
When the morning session was called
to order by President Joseph +. Smith
he announced the singing by the choir
and congregation of the hymn, Guide
Us, o Thou Great Jehovah" Invocation
was offered by President L. W. Shurtliff
of the Weber stake. The choir and con-
gregation sang, oh Say What Is TRUTH
Elder Ben E. Rich, president of the
Eastern States mission, was the first
speaker. He bore a strong testimony that
the angel which John the Revelator saw,
while banishsd upon the isle of PatmOs,
having the everlast ting gospel to preach
to all men, had flown carrying the gOs-
pei message; and that the same was be-
ing preached to all nations, kindredss
tongues and people by the elders of the
Latter-day Saints. Do we appreciate the
fact that we are living in the day spoken
of by John the ReVelatOr, when the gos-
pei, in all its fullness, was to be preached
on earth? Where much is given much
is required; those who have been warned
must warn their neighbors, for only by
applying the principles of reciprocity, to
do unto others as We would be done by,
can the gospels joyful sound be spread
abroad.

ting them out of Richmond so soon. Then
in getting the trunk away we should
have had an automobile
During the same interview" the in
spectOr continued Il asked Cunningham
what was in the bottle we found in the
trunk with the extra fine set OF safe
blowers tools. He replied: I've been a
little worried about that. That's nitro
glycerine. You'd better get rid of it be-
fore it does any damage. l poured the
nitro-glycerine down a waste pipe of a
sink in this building"
The two robbers were captured after
desperate battle with detectives. In their
possession was found a trunk containing
81, 600 in stamps and 5000 in cash. Fay
fought the officers for two hours when
he faced the camera for the Identified
ton bureau, twisting his face out OF shane
and rolling on the floor. Efforts to take
his Bertillon measurements were futile.
Detectives in New York found two more
trunks and a satchel. belonging TO the
robbers, from which they recovered S26,-
600 in stamps.
In ore was what detectives say is the
most elaborate and highly finished set of
burglar tools they have ever seen. Each
tool was in a separate case OF RUSSIAN
leather. Even the rougher jimmies were
wrapped in tissue paper. and the drills
were of the hardest mOdesn high speed
tool steeel. With them were a set of lock
picks some of which were is inches long,
and six sets of skeleton keys Another
set. not so finished, was seized last night.
More interesting yet was a manuscript
showing that the compiler had in mind
a wholesale raid on southern and west
ern banks. Hundreds of banks were
listed. and with them appeared the names
and addresses of the treasurers, cashiers
and jauitors, and their habits and hours.
There was a particularly long item about
a bank at Nashville, Tenn. There is still
another trunk TO be found.

COTTON HAS LOST
ABOUT ONE FOORTH
DETERIORATION CAUSED BY THE
RAvAGES OF THE BOIL WORMS.
GOOD CROP WILL BE GATHERED

Within the past two weeks cotton
has deteriorated in Carter county.
Tha. does not mean that a good crop
will not be harvested, but 1t does
mean that the perfect conditions that
prevailed here on the 10Th of August
have not been retained. The chief
and almost the only cause of the de
terioration has been the effect of the
ravages of the worms that attack
the bolls. Every year The worms do
more or less harm to the cotton plant
but this year they have done more
than usual.
Cotton men who make 1t their bus
mess to keep up with the conditions
of the plant and make their observa
tions. not from one patch or commu
nifty. but from the county as a whole
estimate that the deterioration has
amounted to one-fourth.
This one fact remains that the
WORMS nave dbuul lNi Nh'lA NNNi ~
the hot wave stopped the increase OF
the pest and every farmer reports
that they are growing fewer in mum
bers each day. There is also one oth
or good feature, and that is cottor
has from ten to fifteen days yet tC
nut on forms that will mature before
frost. 4 rain now and a late fall vii
make a bale of cotton to the acre. Nc
rain and an early fall will mean abou
a third to a half bale to the acre.
Ab Overstreet of Cheek, who wa'
in the city yesterday, says the worms
have done him some damage but tina
he has the best all round crop h
has raised for the past ten years ant
he believes the people will have abou
all the cotton they can get gathered
He says the crop has been bette
cultivated this year, that the farmer
are taking more pride in their work
that they are using their brains NOR
and the result will be the gathering
of more pounds to the acre.

BUILDING UP COTTON.
Jim Chandler Has Variety That viii
Produce Two Bales to Acre.

James ]. Chandler, who operates a
farm east of Ardmore, has begun the
task of building up or breeding fine
staple of cotton. He began the build
ing up process with twenty-seven bolls
which he hand-picked and planted.
The process of building up has been
continued. until this year he has a
quarter of an acre planted in the
Chandler seed and from this quarter
acre he expects to make one-half bale
which would be at the rate of two
bales to the acre on upland.
What improvement can be made in
cotton is not short of wonderful. An
oil mill man who came south and
located at DenisOn few years ago
was attracted to the work of build
ing up a variety of cotton. He set
his stakes at a grade of cotton which
with proper cultivation would make
five bales to the acre. lie had sue
ceeded so well with his demonstra-
tions that three balos to the acre had
been gathered from one crop, when
he experiments were stopped by the
Unfortunate death of the man who
would have proved himself a benefac-
Tor to the south.

RECOUNT SEEMS DOUBTFUL
The Nominee For Sheriff Feels That
Mo Crooked Work Was Done.

Buck Garrett, democratic nominee
for sheriff, in speaking of the talked
of recount OF the votes in the county,
said that if ne had not won the nofni-
nation in fair manner that he did
not want it. That very few if any OF
the election inspectors and officers
were his political friends and he did
not believe there were any votes
thrown to him, nor to anyone else for
that matter. that did not belong 10
him. He said as far as he knew the
election officers throughout the coun
ty were very careful in holding the
election and he believes that re
count would not change the result IN
any of the nominations.
1t was generally talked today tha'
the recount would not be held. The
ballot boxes have been exposed FOL
% days with the keys in the locks
they could have been tamDered witt
if anyone desired to do such thing
and il is alsa said that some of thu
ballots were removed to take th'
boxes for the holding of the schoo
election which was held since th'
primary was held.
The peopel generally condemn th'
idea of going into q recount and !
is said very few of the candidate
desire to have it held.
