Attempt to EscODe.

Last evening just shortly after the time 'he county officials usually leave the court house, eight of the prisoners no~ 'u ail, and ~hnm 1t seems had not been 'cked up in ce.l-, made daring attempt, a get away. The iron bar door was 'l'ened by doubling up the bottom by main strength, and the wooden door mt. he j,ii,r's room vas brrst open and the
 fight prisoners rusbed through the room into the j ,il yard.
 Billy Bsnkenship and Sheriff N. Nj. Broadwsy happened to be in the sher' ff-s
 fice. just preparing to go home, when ,nry heard this rush, and stepping ou' Aith reyolvsrs In hand, they found th- 'rllo~s all iR the Jail yard, making wig ,reus endeavors to ciimh over the high fence, and ont. Emmett, the stage robber. was half way up 6 short ladder. which was against the fence. They were com msnded io halt, nut Bennet kept on climbing till he was ordered to stop n second time. The whole gang were then marched back into jail and locked up. rh- public is inclined to think that there IS terrib amount of c4relcssncss somr- where that makes such attempts success fu', or so nearly successful. There is no doubt of the fact that our County Super visnrs fail to do :heir duty to the public ID failing to furnish the iron grating g., often called for, and the necessity of which has been pointed out time and again Phoenix H-rn d.
