The Escaped Prisoners.

Marshal +. i. DuUOlS was dI w"
dleton when lie heard Of the escape OF
the conyicts from the Penitentiary, and
he Immediately started i'll pursuit, be-
ing accompanied by Deputy White,
Harry Humphrey and man from Mo
dleton. whose name we did not learn.
Thinking they would head for Mander-
sons ferry, they hurried there, hoping
to reach that point frs, and make the
capture. Being unable to secure sad
die horses at Middleton, they were
obliged to follow in light wagon, and
upon arriving at the ferry and recon-
noitering, everything looked quiet and
as they were congratuating then-
selves upon their good fortune, when
out of the house on the opposite bank
walked Hayes, and an instant later
Hicks, who upon recognizing the pur-
suing party Immediately sought shell
ter. one in the stable, the other in the
house. The Marshal's party sprang
from the wagon and also took to cover
behind brush corral on the bank of
the river, leaving him Mr. Dubois) to
look after the team, which he secured,
and as he was returning to his party,
Chambers opened the door of the house
across the river, stepped out and hpr-
riedly took shot at him with his
needle gun, but in his hurry did not
get good aim. The Marshal sue
ceedcd in getting back unhurt though
his escape was a narrow one, as Cham
bers is fine shot, Each party now
kept the other at bay until dark, mel.
Their being able to move without incur.
ring the risk of being killed. As soon
as possible the Marshal sent two Of
his Deputies TO Silver City TO head off
the runaways, while another party
was put on their trail at the ferry and
followed them from that pollt. A tel
egran was received Sunday from Bax-
ter, Oregan, saying that messengers
from the two parties had met there,
having left the trail Of the convicts
six miles from Camp Lyon, heading
for Owy hec ferry, all in hot pursut
1t Is race now for that ferry, and the
party making it first will have the ad-
vantage. The reward of two hundred
and fifty dollars each has been doubled
and Marshal Dubois wants it to he
distinctly understood that it will be
Immediately paid upon the delivery OF
the prisoners to him.
