A Clever Escape.

Bud Vanhooser, wanted in this county
on charge of horse-stealing, and whose
whereabouts mas remained profound mys-
terry to the officers here for some five years
past, when the offense was committed, was
found and arrested in Colorado City, and
an officer sent from this place to bring him
back. Believing him to be an exceptionally
hard case the sheriff of that county furnish
ed three rangers to assist the officer, but in
spite of these precautions, Vanhooser having
made request to be allowed the use of his
feet, which was granted, succeeded in
jumping through the open window of the
car while in motion and made good his es-
cape. This occurred about Il o'clock at
night, and though the train was stopped be-
fore going two hundred yards further, and
a careful search was made the 'hoss' (s)pec-
ulator was non est. The same man is want
in Blanco county on similar charge.
