PRISONER EsCAPED.-Last evening an in
dividual named s. Brushy john" a prisoner
at the station house, sentenced to a few days
imprisonment for being drunk concluded to
desert the temporary Jail in the second story
of the old water works building. He had
heard of the high water, partaken of the eX-
element and was afraid that it would pass
before next Monday when he will be re-
leased. He has not been watched particularly,
and last evening taking his blankets he went
into one of the vacant rooms, tied them to
the bolt of the window and let hinsei down.
The rope was not long enough to reach to the
ground, so he had a jump of several feet
landing in the debris and slush which had
been sluiced out of the old tank. He scram
bled out, however, before he missed, and
it is hoped has gone into the wilderness to re-
main a veritable s. Brushy John"
SIDEWALKS, Nor HoUsEs.-A statement
was made on Tuesday in the report of the
storm that water had run from the street
through broken bulkheads into several side
walk areas-the space under sidewalks and
next to the street bulkhead Among other
places named where this happened were
Servers stables and the Mansion House.
Some people evidently read the item very
carelessly. Mr.. SERVER and others say they
have been fearfully bored by people constantly
inquiring about the flooding of their base
ment stories when they have not been
touched by water from drain, overflow or
otherwise, and are as dry as a bone, or as
two bones. The storm reports have spoken
of many places where the rainfall has ac-
cumulated beneath walks, but no one can
possibly conclude therefrom that the houses
adjacent are inundated.
