How Hadley Escaped.

Howard, the Bridgeport burglar, who was sentenced to state prison from Litch- field county along with James Higgins, alias Dick Hadley, gives the particulars of how the latters escape was effected. It was agreed upon between Hadley and Howard that the two should escape while being taken from the jail to the court house in Litchfeld and Howard had his irons all unlocked, ready to go, when Hadley cautioned him to bide 8 bit saying that there was plenty of time. Then, after he had persuaded Howard out of his idea, Hadley waited 8 favorable opportunity and slipped away, leaving Howard to go to prison. This was the last straw for Howard and he then confessed everything. He said that keys for the shackles were furnish ed to Prescott, Hadley's lawyer, by a woman who was visiting at Prescott s house and that theslatter gave them to Hadley and Howard. The latter is much incensed over his pals treachery and VOWS vengeance as soon as he is hberat- ed.-Hdryoad Telegram.

 Ne tilink--both your coinpaily and the general public are to ba congratu- lated upon the rhorougi, character of these renewals and the lldiclous manner in which the necessary expenditures have been made.
 ,Ihis strong endorsement by the board after an examination of the whole hne is we'll deserved. Good judges say that no better road bed can be found on any road in the state and its excellent con- dition and efficient and careful manage ment have enabled the company to- serve the public fully and promptly. Delays are rare and accidents unknown on the Connecticut Western under MT Jones' management. During the last five years, 1t is understood, the compa- ny has proved more than self-support- ing. It is said that as large sum as $500, 900 has been invested in the inn provement of the property over and above the amount borrowed for that pur- pose. This work has been of perma- nent sort and it's completion means larg- CT net earnings ill the future.
 Briefly stated the improvements cov- CT: Steel rails now laid on all the part of the road in this state; safety switches and other we'll known appliances which have been adopted and added; thous- ands of yards of masonry; the rebuild ing of all the bridges; trestles filled with earth or thoroughly rebuilt, track ballasted and much improved by widen ing banks and cuts; construction of ad- ditional side tracks, increased depot and terminal facilities; new depots, shops, etc.; new passenger and freight cars and locomotives and 1n fact a general remaking as well as extending of the road and its equipments.
 All this work has been done under the supervision and direction of Super Jones and the success of the road will be due to his constant care, his economy, and his general ability as 8 railroad manager, which, though he Is young man, has already come to be widely recognized.-Ha1yor'd Com'a'et, November 3.
