The thief that passed through Dade county last Sunday night was one of the most bold, ener getic and notorious that has visited this section for a long time. He began operations near Rising Fawn by taking Mat Allisons mule eaddle and bridle a little after dark He proceeded north to A. M. Tatum’s farm where he took the bridle off of Mr. Allison’s mule turned him loose and placed the bridle on a fine two year old iron gray, 16 hands high mare mule belonging to Mr. Tatum. The latter animal bad never been bro ken to ride and the thief evidently lead it on to Trenton where no doubt growing weary walking and leading the animal, he visited Col. J. P. Jacoways barn and appro priated one of his buggies and a set of harness to his own use, hooking the mule to it and pro ceeding peaceably or. his journey toward Chattanooga. Mr. Tatum heard a noise at his barn about the time for the thief to get from Mr. Allison’s there, but let it pass uninvestigated, Col. Jacoway was sitting on the poarch of his residence when he passed with the mule his buggy and har ness, but never once thought the party passing was a thief. It was not known until Monday morning that the theft had been committed which having been early in the evening before gave the thief several hours the start. Sherilf Thurman was notified and he at once got into communication with county authorities of every countv in this section of the state, in East and north Ala bama, notifying them of the theft and ofiering a reward for the cap ture of and return of the thief and property. Wednesday local parties together with a deputy sheriff of Chattanoo ga were trailing the fugitive and property and came across a suspic ious looking character who to some extent filled the description of tie party sought and arrested him, taking him to Chattanooga for trial. At the trial yesterday sev eral witnesses testified that he was the man they saw with the stolen property. lie is being held by Tennessee authorities until the | Georgia officers get extradition pa I per* for his removal here. The | man gives his name as John Gib son of Daisy, Tenn. FESTIVAL.

Camp of Dalton, and two other parties on a rade for a wild-1 cat still on Lookout mountain near Rising Fawn on the Walker county line captured and destroyed an illicit whisky still of a hundred j gallons capacity last Monday a week ago. They also found 25 gallons of whisky and 2,500 gallons of beer and two parties operating the still. They succeeded in cap turing the whisky and beer, but the parties iu charge proved fas ter runnel’s than the Marshal and his assistants and they succeeded in escaping after a lively race. Mr. Camp chased the distillers several hundred yards to a very rough gulch where they being better acquainted with the premises suc ceeded in escaping through the rough. The whisky was taken in charge by the officer, the beer destroyed and the still cut to peices. One of the parties in charge of the still at the time of the raid was recognized by the officer as being Jack Nations, a*notorious wild catter and well known by him. The other party was unknown. Mr. (’amp stated that these parties have been operating at and near the place of capture for sometime, but it was only recently that he finally located them. He also states that this makes several stills that he has captured in that vicinity since the state prohibi tion law went into effect about a year ago.
