4 Thrilling Adventure.

1t is reported that ex-senator John
Walker met the convict who escaped
from the State Prison the other day, in
the hills near Pinenut. Johnny recog.
nized the man al once as an old &C.
quaintance. As they were standing
together talking in the dusk, it is stated
that the escaped jail.bird pulled a
"dudeen" from his pocket and ordered
Mr.. Walker to throw up his hands
The Senator was SO frightened that for
several hours afterwards he was uncon
scious. Upon gaining his senses he
discovered that his friend had stolen his
blankets and 100000 in greenbacks
that Mr.. Walker had by hard work ac-
cumulated. The loss will fall heavily
on the Senator as he is getting old and
feeble.
