II He Prince Edwsrds?

Sheriff Adair received a telegram
yesterday reading as follows: + Have
Prince Edwards Iii Jail here. Scslff
man to identity him.
1t was on Wednesday morning, June
y, 1901, that MIR. John Gray Foster
was assassinated by the negro Prince
Edwards on the Foster-SMith planta-
tion (this parish) Of which he was res
ident manager. Prince made his escape
and has ever since been sought. but
two other negroes-F. D. McI4and and
{. Prophet Smith-fotnd to be inpli-
Gated in the crisne, We're a week later
taken from the Parish jail By. q mob
of 200 white men and hanged.
a liberal reward was offered for the
capture Of Prince Edwards. and the
search was well organized and persist
ing. But he evaded all officers. no doubt
through being shielded and abetted by
those of his race. Otherwise it would
seem that he surely would have been
apprehended and made to pay the pen
atty of his crime. 1t may be that he
has at last been captured. though many
reports Of his capture during past years
have only proved disappointing when
some one was sent to identify him.
Always it was not the man wanted
who was being held.
The telegram above quoted Is from
st. Francisille and bears the sigma
ture OF +. G. Wilcox, Sheriff for West
Feliciana Parish. Sheriff Wilcox has
for about two months past had the
negro now held shadowed and he and
Sheriff Adair exchanged number OF
letters prior to the time Of the arrest
Of the negro. Recently the. sheriffs OF
the state formed mn association, the
chief object of which was to assist each
other In the apprehension Of criminals.
While In attendance at one of the meet
ings held by the sheriffs Mr.. Adair met
Mr.. Wilcox and talked with him about
the long sought criminal. That has In
part, no doubt, led up to the arrest that
has followed
Mr.. Hen Monzingo, an oyerseer on
the FoSter-Smith plantation ut the time
the crime was committed. hut now a
resident of Texas. has been wired to
proceed to st. Francisyille to identify
the negro. So 1t will soon he known II
he Is really Prince Edwards.

Town UPSET OVER
CALAMITY SPECTER
Mute RevivaIist Predicts Disas.
ter and SO the CreduIous
Beqin to Move.

LEXINGTON, KY. Feb. IA deaf
and dumb woman evangelist has
thrown superstitious people about
Madisonville, KY, into state Of
panic. She is a Holy Roller and is
holding a revival at MadisonvilIe,
which is a coal mining town in the
western part of the State. She has
predicted in sign language from her
pulpit that a great calamity will be-
fall the town in a short time. but
has not specified the date.
She cannot read or write, and her
sign language is Interpreted by one
OF her co-workers. The prophet is
Mrs. Jessie White and she has been
an evangelist for several years. Scores
have been converted by her sign
language pleas. She has gained a
great hold upon her congregation and
hundreds attend at every meeting.
Several people are reported to have
left Madisonville and vicinity be-
cause of the woman's prediction OF a
calamity.
Efforts are being made to secure
from her some definite idea as to
when the dire visitation will take
place, but so far in vain.
The Holy Rollers recently predicted
a calamity at Louisa, in the eastern
part of the State, because of the al
legged iniquity of the citizens, but II
has not materialized. Hundreds OF
people fed that vicinity at the time
and most of them are still away.
