PERHAM, Mimi, Dec. 4.-The train men
on the midnight freight were greatly
startled when, upon arrival at this place, to
discover in their caboose what appeared to
be the lifeless form of young man appar-
emily 81 years of age. The body was stored
away in that part of the car set apart
for baggage and was covered up by
a mattress and lot of other bedding used
by the train men. The appearance of the
man indicated responsibility, as he was
we'll dressed and intelligent looking. A
physician was summoned, who at once
pronounced it case of drugging. Powerful
emetics were given him and after an hours
work he was sufficiently restored to tell those
present that his name was Magee and that
he had been robbed of a gold watch and
$50 in money. The last he remembered
was being in Detroit, this state, in company
with two strangers. who induced him to
drink with them out of bottle which one
of them produced. How he came into the
car is a mystery He will recover.

A CONVICT ESCAPES.

A Notcriou. Life Convict Makes Ills Escape
from the Joliet Penitentiary.
JOLIET, ILL, November ga notorious
criminal, named A. n. McAlister, alias
Peoria Dan. escaped from the Joliet peni-
Tertiary at five o'clock this afternoon, or is
at present hiding within the walls. The
entire force of guards and police OF the
city are now on duty, searching the city
and endeavOring to recapture the eScaNed
convict. 1t is thought that McAlister eff
fec;ed his escape by going over the walls
with a rope which he had cOntrived to
manufacture, and as lie had friends in the
city was probably supplied with citizens
clothes on the outside. Since McAlisters
Imprisonment he has been employed in the
main engine rooms at the prison as Gil
gineer and has not been under as strict
surveillance as the other prisoners, conse-
quently he had better opportunity to plan
and effect his escape. The murder
for which McAlister was convicted
was one Of the most sensational in the
State. 1t resulted from quarrel in
Peoria bagniO and for this McAlister re-
ceived a life sentence. He was received at
the penitentiary here February &c, 1876.
Previous to conviction McAlister had served
three terms in this institution; first having
been convicted of larceny; second for bur-
glary; third for robbery. While serving
the second term he was pardoned by Gov
ernor Palmer. The escaped convict is
about forty-six years Of age, five feet four
inches high, of light complexion. light hair
and weighs IT'S pounds. He is of round,
chubby build, large head, bald on top, full
face rather pale and slow-motipned. He is
one of the best known men OH the Illinois
Central canal, and will probably seek en-
p,Oyment somewhere as AIN engineer.

There il as much truth as wit in the

More than this, without dust we should
probably have no fog, no clouds and
no rain. This is the utilization of dust
which Nature makes, but man has never

The Draft Horses Of France.

While some people in America call
all horses imported from France Nor
mans. it is a fact that there is no breed
in France called by that name by the
French people; the name, Norman.
therefore, is purely American. The
principal breeds of France are known
as Perchcrons and Boullanais. The
Perchcrons are the most highly priced of
all French races, anu all departments
of France go to the Perche for stations
to improve their local breeds. The
Perchcron stud book Of France, pub
ished ander the authority Of the French
Government, is the only stud book Of
draft horses that is or erer has been pub
lished in France, and now contains the
pedigrees of about 5000 animals. But
some importers are Offering certificates
from France of Norman draft horses
that may mislead people who do not
understand the French language into
believing these records of origin. Not
one of them issued contains pedigree.
They are furnished at the request of
American buyers by the secretary of
one of the French Agricultural socic-
ties, who says there is no intention of
Publishing them in stud book form. as
they have no pedigrces and are of no
value whatever. 1t is a well known
fact that what q man gives for horse
over from $500 to s;SC0-the price of a
good grade-is paid for purity of blood;
and where the seller is not able to give
the recorded pedigree Of the animal
sold as evidence OF additional value, he
has no right to ask it. With these facts
before him, no intelligent man will buy
a horse imported from France unless
he is recorded with his pedigree in full
in the Perchcron Stud Book of France.
