Conspiracy at the Northern Prison.

On Thursday the officials of the Northern

port that a number of convicts had plotted
to escape, and were about to put their plans
into execution. Shortly afterward pris-
oner named Wesley Holmes, from Fountain
county, revealed the particulars of the in
tended break, and the plans were thus
thwarted. Attached to one of the principal
workshops within the walls is a small build

for the manufacture of buggy bodies, and
in this department three convicts are en-

each day excavating a tunnel beneath the

the west wall, distance of forty feet AS
fast as the work progressed the tunnel was
arched and paved. The underground pass
age was completed yesterday, and guards
ers were suspicious and would not leave their
posts. This morning Kelly and Campbell
were forced to confess, and they were sub

two others to he implicated, excepting

A New Theory About the Death of sombro
Near Dublin.


Near Dublin.
Special to the Indianapolis journal
RICHMOND, Nov. 5-M. Carlini a gentle
man of this vicinity who is we'll versed in
both the French and Italian languages, and
who is quite intelligent, has a theory of his
own in regard to the death of Sombro,
whose dead body was found in the woods
near Dublin, recently. He thinks it was a
duel, and not a murder He says that Som
bro and another italian, named Cappel were
formerly neighbors in Italy; that they came
to this country together in search of for
tunes, leaving their families at home. The
men were both quarrelsome and hlgh-temp-
cred and had frequent rows with each other.
Despairing of getting fortunes for both, Car
lini says he has good reasons for believing
they talked the matter over and deliberately
came to the agreement to fight until one or
the other was killed, the survivor to take
what little money they had and go back to
Italy. They fought the duel and Sombro
was the unlucky victim. There are some
features about the case that make this theory
appear plausible. NJ Carlini evidently be-
lieves in it sincerely. He has talked freely
with several of the gang of Italians with
whom the men were accustomed to associate.
Capped has been traced to Chicago, but there
the trail is lost. He told parties there that
he was on his way to New York. He is evil

Pluck on the Plains.

An instance of boys pluck. endur-
ance, and success is shown by the re-
cent sale of 4. c. Cowlc's half interest
in his cattle ranch ut North Platte,
Neb,, to his partner Tor S77, 800 Cowles
was born ut West Farms in 1915, and for
some twenty-five years lived and work
ed around Westiield. Ten or twenty
years ago he found himself with 800 in
his pocket, and, concluding that if he
ever was going to make anything of
himself he must break from his old
associates and habits, he suddenly took
the train westward and landed in
Omaha. From there he drifted TO
Texas, and for two or three wears drove
cattle from that state to Colorado. On
one Of these trips the drivers were all
killed by hostile Indians except himself,
he escaping by theswiftness of hishorse.
When he got a little money together, he
purchased n few head of cattle, and
from that time his success has been
gradual. He is now, and has been for
some years, connected with the United
States detective service, chiefly engaged
in looking up lawlcss bands of horse
and cattle thieves, and he has had more
than one prisoner taken from him by
Infatuated ranchmen and hanged to the
nearest tree. He will probably pur-
chase another ranch and remain amid
the scenes where he has so quickly made
u fortune. Springfield (Mass.) Rcpub-
