RICH AND RACY A Party of United States Marshals Accidentally Unearth a Sensation in Hart County, Ky. New Haven, Ky., August 3-During the past week Deputy United States Marshal Frank Clark and three special bailiffs have been engaged in a raid through Hardin, Hart and Green counties in search of persons against whom there have been old indictments in the United States court on the charge of making crooked whisky. Capt. Clark now comes to the front with his prisoners and a very interesting scan mag story that was unearthed and let to the world by himself. It is as follows: I had a warrant for one Clinton Aiken.In order to get him, I advanced within a few yards of his house under cover of darkness and waited until the dawn of day.As daylight crowded upon me too fast, I concluded to advance to a side window of his sleeping room, but discovering that the door was not locked, I walked up to and pushed it open. As I did so, a man rolled out of the bed.There was a woman in the bed that the man had left, and while keeping my eye on him, I asked, "Are you Clint Aiken?" "No, sir." Clark: "Who are you, then?" "My name is Dr. M. D. Higgarson." Clark: "Who is this woman?" Higgarson: "It's Clint Aiken's wife." Clark: Where is Clint Aiken?" Higgarson: "He is at his brother's about five miles from here..." (Clark) then proceeded to the house of Aiken's brother where he found Clint at work. Clark told Aiken of the infidelity of his wife, and the news of the discovery spread like wild fire over Hart County. Dr. Higgararson is the father of two grown daughters and always before this has been considered as spotless as is possible for a man to be. Mrs. Aiken is a native of Pennsylvania, but was raised near Bloomington, Indiana, and her maiden name was Mollie F. Shinn. They were married at Bloomington in 1870. Capt. Clark says she is a very beautiful brunette with an elegant form and from her manner must be captivating indeed. Clint Aiken, the husband, who is now under arrest, claims to be innocent of the charge of making "moonshine" whisky, and says that Dr. Higgarson got a man by the name of Kelly to go to Louisville and swear out the warrant in order to get him, Aiken, out of the way. Aiken is a very good looking man, dressed genteelly, and has the appearance of a hardworking, honest man. He is taking the downfall of his wife very much at heart. On Clark's return from the home of Aiken's brother, it was necessary to pass by the prisoner's house, and when the party arrived, they found the doctor and Mrs. Aiken seated at the table eating a late breakfast. The prisoner then lit in on the doctor with a shower of abuse such as the oldest citizen never heard before. There is no doubt but what he would have shot the doctor had it not been for the influence of Capt. Clark.
