SUSPECT ARRESTED.

A man giving his name as Chas.
Wagner, who had been acting in a
suspicious manner near the court
house, Saturday afternoon, was
placed under arrest late that after
noon by Chief of Police Link, on a
charge of being suspicious charac-
ter. Wagner was taken to the Pari!
Jail.
When arrested he wore overalls
and army shoes and talked in bro
ken English. He was asked by the
officer to show his registration pa
pers, but pretended not to under
stand what was required of him. He
declined to make any statement con-
corning himself, his home, or as to
where he had been previous to COM
ing to Paris. Nothing of suspicious
character was revealed by a search
of his clothes and what few personal
effects he had with him. 1t was the
officers belief that Wagner was an
escaped prisoner from the internment
camp at Atlanta, Ga. Chief Link
has communicated with the author
tiles at Atlanta, detailing the cir
cumstances of Wagner's arrest an
giving an accurate description of the
man.

CAPTURED THROUGH THE
ETERNAL TRIANGLE"

The eternal triangle this time, in
the case of Charles Crafcraft, Oh
Bourbon county, was composed of a
jealous woman, a telephone and a
policeman. Unfortunately for Charles
all three made the circuit promptly
thereby causing Charles arrest and
Imprisonment.
Craycraft has been under indict-
ment in the Bourbon Circuit Court
on a felony charge, it having been
alleged that he had wilfully and fe-
loniously distracted and appropriar
ed to his own use sundry geese
ducks, chickens and other kinds of
poultry, the property of various
farmers in the North Middletown
neighborhood. Upon learning OF
the indictment Craycraft disappear
ed and was not located until last Fra
day, when an unknown woman call
ed Chief Link by long distance tele-
phone from Lexington and informed
him that Craycraft was at that time
enroute for Winchester. Officers in
Winchester set dragnet for Cray
craft, who was taken into custody
at the railroad crossing as the c. &
O. train came in. He was brought
to Paris by Patrolman Lusk Satur
day afternoon and placed in tn
Paris jail.

The weather man pulled bad
trick on us Saturday and Sunday,
and with the assistance of Jupiter
Pluvius, driver of the celestial wa
ter-wagon, sent a downpour of rain
Saturday night.
For about two hours the rain fell
in torrents, causing great discom-
fort to pedestrians and shoppers.
The rain was of great benefit TO
growing gardens and farm crops.
which, with a few days of sunshine,
will spring up with renewed vigor.
Sunday the weather was raw and dis
agreeable, a cold wind prevailing
nearly all day. Yesterday was
bright and clear, but cold, the Their
mometer registering so degrees.
The forecast for the Ohio Valle7
and "Tennesse is for fair weather to
day and tomorrow, with prospects
for a continuation of the SAME

ed by County Attorney David D.
