A COnyict'S Novel Mode of Escape.
st. Louis Republican.

William GOssard, a convict, made a
novel attempt to escape from the peni-
tentiary at Jefferson city. which came
near being successful. Hewas employ
ed as a packer in Priesmeyer's shoe
shop, and with the assistance of Fred
Faulkner, a fellOw-cOnvict, got himself
packed into shoe-case, which, with
the other cases, was to be shipped i'm
mediately. Unfortunately for him
there was a delay in the arrival of the
wagon which was to take the boxes to
the depot, and his absence being mark
ed a search was instituted, resulting in
his discovery. The guards had hunted
everywhere for the missing man, and
for time were completely nonplussed
when one of them kicked one of the
packed boxes and said he believed
Faulkner had packed him into a shoe
case. Gossard, hearing this, thought he
was discovered, and at once COM
menced kicking to get out, his place of
confinement having by this time be-
come intolerable, owing to his cramped
position and the insufficiency of air.
Gossard only weighed 130 pounds, ten
pounds more than the weight of that
sized case of shoes, and, had the delay
not occurred, would have succeeded III
getting away from the prison at least, al
though doubtless would have been
discovered before the box had reached
the depot, the hole made in the case
not admitting sufficient air to sustain
life in any great length of time. Cos
sard is from Kansas city, and is serving
a sentence of thirty years for the kill
ing of the marshal of Westport. Faux
ner is a second termer from St. Louis.
Both of these men We're awarded the
punishment usual in such cases, the
latter receiving the largest portion for
his share in the affair
A similar attempt to escape was
made some years ago by the notorious
John Reno, who succeeded in getting
himself coopered into a barrel. His
scheme was frustrated, however, by q
fellow convict giving him away.

MOnO's Dead Sea.
San Francisco Chronicle.

The propeller Rocket, which will
soon be placed on Mono lake, will have
no trouble about floating, as the density
of the water is remarkable, being Just
the reverse of that of Lake Tahoe, in
which the body of a drowned person
never returns to the surface. An ex-
change says that for bitterness and
prOmlscuOUs meanness the waters of
Mono Lake Surpass those of the Dead
Sea. They contain so much alkali that
on Il windy day the lake is a regular
tub of soap-suds. The writer has seen
a wall Of lather five feet high along the
whole of that shore against which the
waves were beating. Occasionally the
wind would take up Il bunch of this
lather as big as Il bushel basket and
carry 1t several hundred feet inland.
So buOyant are the waters of the lake
that quite party of men may navigate
them on a raft made of four or five
dry cottonwood poles. Out in the lake
are islands of rock (lava-lil1e concre-
tiOns) through which streams of water
boil up. The water of these springs is
like that of the lake, but in one place is
a large spring of fresh water This is
near the northwest corner of the lake,
and point where there is a depth of
eight or ten feet Of water. 1t is a sort
Of fountain. A column of fresh water,
some three feet in diameter, is project
ed upward with such force that it rises
to height of at least two feet above
the general level Of the lake in the
form of a mound or knoll, and makes
ripping noise that can be heard
considerable distance. But for the fact
that this fountain has depth of eight
or ten feet of water to contend against,
it would probably rise to a considerable
height in the air.

44AOAAS'
The saddest of news did that telegram bear
As it leaped DER the wires like light;
1t came to our class the second of June:
Dear mother died last night"
We thought of that fireside angel,
The hope and light of her home
Of the loved and cherished bereaved ones
Thus left so sadly alone.
All, little foresaw our dear clasSmate,
On that memorable first of June,
The cloud fast looming above her,
To burst, alas so soon.
Little thought she that Deaths Angel
Was Fastening on apace,
To lay his cold hand on that mother
Whom Angels could never replace.
But He who is always yearnlng
Sweet blessing to impart,
Thus gamered his hidden treasure
To the depths of His Sacred Heart.
Fond mother, look down on thy darlings-
Allure them with Heavenly charms
In mercy sweet Jesus viii fold them
To rest at length in thine arms.
o sink not, bereayed ones, in sorrow-
Your mother has just gone before;
Her spirit, which hoverS about you,
Will guide as in days of yore.
Ine cross, IL Is true, looks cumbrOuS-
But bears it not Mary's sweet Son?
While kissing it, cry in your anguish,
Father, thy will be donel"
Then upward, and onward dear classmate.
No time remains to be lost
For, the summer of life once ended,
We soon feel the wintry frost.
Our Rose will watch Ger our lambkin,
As she mOums that fond mothers love,
Who hovers around her grieved dariings,
Tho her spirit now lives above.
