Jail DellTeFy.-on Monday night,
at about half past eight o'clock, three
prisoners, J. HOffeeker, Demo Sloat
and F. s. Rub, made their escape from
the jail.
They removed the same stone, and
made their exit from the same hole,
that SiddeIl and three others escaped
from about three years ago. This
place is in an unoceupied double cell
IN the north side of the Jail, second
tier. It has been considered unsafe
for some time to keep prisoners in and
has been kept locked.
Several weeks ago, Mr.. Robert
Nichols, Jail keeper, discovered that
HOfecker was in the habit of picking
the locks of the unoccupied cells, ap-
parently Tor the purpose of giving
himself and the ether prisoners en-
larged grounds to occupy, with a
piece Of wire about three inches long
slightly crooked at each end. He
took the wire from the prisoner, end
supposed all was right. Monday
evening, while at Lodge, word was
brought to him that the prisoners had
broken out. This was told by Rub
one of the prisoners, who, as soon as
ne got out, came down town, bought
some cigars, and reported. He i'm
mediatelY returned to the Jail withthe
jailOr and others, saying he did not
want to get away although he assist
ed the Others in their escape. From
him it was learned that for about
three weeks HOffecker had been at
work trying to pick the lock Of the
cell from which the escape was made
with a wire similar 70 the one former
Y taken from him, ,and that he had
been unable to do it until the evening
in question. As soon as the prisoners
lad gained entrance they went to
work to remove the stone. They
took the iron frame from a valise be-
longing to SIoat and with that dug
and scraped the mortar from about
the stone. After removing the NOR
tar, they took their sheets, twisted
them into ropes, put the ropes around
the stone and drew it into the cell.
Che stone removed was about elgh-
teen inches from the floor, and is
about three feet long by eighteen
inches square. From the face of the
stone on the inside it tapers towards
the outside Of the wall, so that after
the mortar was removed it did not
require much effort to move it
We presume the Jail needs repairing,
4s any prisoner who has ordinary
sense and the disposition can get out
at any time unless closely watched.
We also think that new locks should
be procured unless the prisoners are
kept inside the cells. A lock that can
be picked by piece OF crooked wire
in the hands of an ordinary prisoner
cannot be as good as it ought to be.
Where the blame rests in this case,
we do not know, but we are satisfied
that If the Jail was what it ought to
be, prisoners would not get out of it
when left alone for two or three
hours.

MELNORE MEMS.


The death of Mr.. II. N. Becker, by
accidentally shooting himself while
on a hunting excursion in Ottawa
County, has cast deep gloom over
this community. He was Of the firm
of SaItzer & Becker, Merchants of
this place; and as a business man be
had the confidence and respect of
the entire community. His soeiable
and companionab.e qualities endear-
ed him TO all who knew him, and as
a community his loss will be deeply felt
in all its circles. The esteem in which
he was held was attested by the large
numbers who left this place on Mon
day last to take a last look at his
mortal remains while at Tiffin, before
being gtaken to the home Of his parents
in Pennsylvania. He was a young man
Of premise and Of good habits, and II
seems sad that he should be 30 sud-
denly stricken down.

Absent Mlnded.-Last Monday a
gentleman from the country left his
team standing a few moments in
'front.' Of Exchange Bank Block, with
the lady accompanying him holding
the ribbons, while he went to neigh
boring store on an errand. During
his absence another team containing
young man and his wife halted in
front Of the drug store Of Sans & Co.
Throwing the reins to his wife the
Young man went in to make his pur-
chases. While so doing, what was
his surprise to see another man enter
his wagon aud coolly seat himself by
his wife. Visions of a deserted house
hold, elopement, diyorce-everything
rushed upon his mind at once, and he
ran for the door. Before reaching it,
however, the absent-minded individ-
ual glancing into the face of the fair
one as he reached for the reins, sud-
denly made leap TO the ground and
retired in confusion to his own wag-
on amid the cheers and laughter of
quite a crowd who happened to Wit
ness the transaction.

BISCOM NEWS.


After delay of a few months, ]
again propose to take the liberty OF
giving to the innumerable readers OF
the TRIBUNE, the news Of Bascom and
its surrounding country. The farmers
)f this section Of country feel joyful,
IS all farmers do after a season OF
hard work, for which they are well
paid by well filled bins and cribs. The
products of the soil were abundant, as
they generally are, owing to the fer
tility of the soil. The village is as
lively as it usually is under prosperous
circumstances. It's inhabitants are
noted for their industrial habits and
are now seldom seen lettering on the
fPublic Square" or sauntering up
broadway"
Schools are under way, and are all
in fine condition. With little ex-
penditure of money they could be
made far better.

Successful Grab Game.-On Satur-
day afternoon last boy stole a five
dol ar grsenbac& from the counter of
Hartman & Son under the following
circumstances: Mrs. Hedges, who
lives IN the first Ward, was in the
Jewelry Store of Hartman & Son, en-
gagged in buying a pair of spectacles,
and had taken out her purse to pay
for them. From the purse she took a
five dollar bill aud laid both on the
counter. She turned around to speak
to Lew, and as she did so boy stand
ing by snatched the bill, and ran out
with it. Another boy was present
and he ran away with the other
probably an accOmpliee. The
boy who stole the note was above sew
enteen years old and the other about
two years younger. No one has been
able to identify the boys.
The young rascals have probably
made their election sure for the Penl
tentisry sooner or later.

Among other recipes for the pur-
pose published in the Cincinnati
Gazette we find the following remedy
for cold feet:
TIFFIN, o., November For =
preventive Of cold feet take two or
three pinehes Of Cayenne pepper, but
not Of the strongest, turn the foot Of
your stockings out and sprinkle the
Cayenne pepper lightly over the foot
of the stocking; if one sprinkling will
not warm the feet, in three or four
days apply a second; for some days
the feet may feel uneomfortably
warm. but the excess of warmth will
pass away, and the feet will continue
comfortably warm for months.
Try it, and you will suffer from cold
feet no more. H. G. SPAYTH,
