Jail Delivery.

Lost Monday morning, tho iailor
on proceeding to the jail 10 feed the
prisoners confined therein, discov-
cred that they had quietly taken
their departure, and gene to parts
not lald down on the maps. The
prisoners, who thus escaped, were
Martin Mitchell aud Tidwell, the
former charged with the murder OF
II. Clay Goti, and the latter, with
burglary. Many theories and spec
ulations are indulgcd IN rs to the
mode. and the means employed TO
o;fect their escape and some OF
them, we are sorry to say, among
the thoughlless, have led TO bitter
personal anilmadversions and recri.
limitations, which almost amounts
20 an open declaration of war. But
when We consider the insecure con.
dilion OF the jaJ, its isolated posi-.
ton, the wonder is that prisoners
have been kept at al without a con
slant guard, and claiming them in
side the cells.
On Monday, young Blnklcy and
one Horton, instlgators of the row
at the picnic grounds, were arrest
ed and lodged IN Jail they remain
ed in it Just about fifteen minutes.
Without the sign OF II tool or implc-
nsnt OF any sort, they tore down
half the the ceiling on one side wall
aud made their escape; however,
only for short time, us sheriff J.
b. Driver was soon notified, and
they were recaptured.
The county would save money by
tearing down this mis.callcd Jail,
and building another.

Masonic Picnic.

4 'nc iiNsoiliC CVlSuiatoh VI wv
feast of st. John, was universally
observed and enjoyed by our
community as gala day of recrea-
ton and merriment.
The cedar grove on the Whit
more place, tastily and carefully
prepared for the grand basket pic
mic and social reunion, by IL a. m.
was swarming with the brawny,
stalwart sons, and fair, charming
daughters of the vicinity of Osceo-
la lntersprinklcd by many notable
guests from all portions of the
county and from abroad--form-
ing one of those brilliant pitures of
beauty and festivity, so well ealeu
lated to please the eye and glad
den the heart.
After the delivery Of the Masonic
address by j. o. Blackwood, Esqr.,
rendered in very effective man
her to the large and attentive au-
dience present, tho order was Civ
en-, "prepare for dumer )" where
upon, almost as if under the inspir.
rtons of Alladin's magic lantern,
the vacant grounds were covered
with impromptu tables, literally
groaning beneath their wealth Of
viands, confectionery and innum-
cradle delicacies. which we never
could learn to name. AT this cle-
giant and sumptuous banquet, the
immense throng of hungry and
apprecIatlve humanity, Tasted, as
only know how to feast, those who
have had previous experience Of
the art de c055iUe Of the Mississippi
county house wife. After roaming
from table to table, to find at each,
something new, further TO tempt
the palate, surielted nature was
forced to desist from the onslaught
leaving untouched sufficient mate
rial with which to have fed AS
many more as had already feasted.
A few moments in which to re.
cover healthy and comfortable res
piraiion, and then to the stirring
strains of good string band, the
gay couples plunged merrily into
the rolicklng quadrille and still
more exhiliarating waltz
Thus was everything passing of,
as happily rs a wedding feast,
giving promise of one OF the most
pleasant aud satisfactory reunions
within the rcminiscence of the par
ticlpants i; when the fatal hand OF
dIscord, in the shape ola few indi
Y duuls, agged on by too much
whisky, dashed with an o"ercharge
oi politics, as If envlous of the har
mony, which all day, had been
reIgning supreme, ruthlessly sun
dcred the bonds of lratcrnal unity ;
and, for Il while threatened to in
volve this hitherto peaceful assem-.
blage into seething disgraceful
riot. Fortunately, the affair was
qucllcd in time to prevsRt serious
results; but 1t threw such Il damper
over the festive scene, as to result
in its rapid dispersion. No cepsure
can be too great for this outrage
upon our citizens. when assembled
on such an occasion; and it IS high
time the proper steps were taken
to prevent Il recurrence OF similar
dlsgraceful broils.
At night, a numerous and select
party of Ladies' and Gentlemen as
sembled at the Planters House,
where unmindiul of the unfortunate
disturbance of the day, they were
compensated for their previous dis
appointment by the smiles Of Terp-
sichoro lptIl the "wce sma' hours
OF morning" sustained by an excel
lent and substantial supper, contrib
uted from the bounty OF the morn
ing's pic mic.

Knights Of Pythias Bali.

One of the most brilliant and pleasant parties ever given in th,s city, was that of the Knights of Pythias last evening. The management spared no labor or pains to make the affair vie with anything of the kind ever gotten up in this territory and in their efforts they succeeded beyond meas ure. The new Theatre building was pro- cured for the occasion, and the whole in side was cecorated with flags. streamers, evergreen wreaths, darts, shields engrav- ings, etc, and when illuminated by the magnificent chandeliers that hang sus- pended beneath the frescoed ceilings of the hall, presented a dazzting appearance. The members of the order were nearly all pres cnt, and were easily distinguished from the fact that each wore badge of the lodge. Among the notables present we noticed Gov. Fremont and lady, Mir. and Miss Fremont ana Gov Hoyt and lady. The ladies were beautifully dressed, and were, as usual, the handsomest in the land. The supper pre- pared by Wm. Doverney. wa' grand. and all we might say in praise of the same would hardly do it jusuce, and taking tue affair all-in-all, II was just splendid.
