THE ROOT THE EVIL.

To thoroughly cure scrofula it is neees
sary to strike directly at the root of thu
evil. This is exactly what Hoods Sar>
saparille does, by acting upon the blood,
thoroughly cleansing it of all impurities
and leaving not even faint OF scrofnls
in the vital fluid. Thousands who have
been cured Of scrofula by Hoods Sarsap'
rilla, testify to its wonderful blood purify
ing qualities. Sold by all druggists.

A Modern Jack Shepherd.

EXTRAORDINARY ENGINEERING FEAT OF A
CoNVICT-ESCAPE AND PURSUIT.
The most successful effort at escape from
prison walls In the face Of seemingly insur-
mountable obstacles since the days of the re-
nowned Jack Shepherd Is seen in the exploit
OF Louis Viau, the convict Of st. Vincent de
Paul, who led the revolt of that penitentiary in
Canada on Sunday, the 25th Of April as here
tofore mentioned in The STAR. A dispatch to
the New York Herald from Montreal SAYS: sHe
Is man OF medium height wiry and tough
ana capable OF great endurance and pluck, as
was proven on his fight with the prison officials
a short time ago when being searched. After
and water. He, In some way secured q knife
and made saw with 1t. He had also Q piece
OF pail handle and fragment OF q stone.
With these he tunnelled q wall three feet thick
quilt Of stones and bricks. This brought him
70 the corridor, where he tunnelled another
wall, this time OF brick. There was still
another heavy wall between him and the outer
ar OF the prison yard. By the dim light Of q
coai OIL lamp he did the work OF tunnellihg
this latter obstacle, leaving the rubbish In the
inner passage. He had very little 70 do now in
the way Of tunnelling, but had to scale walls %
Ieet nigh. WOrkmen had been using q derrick
with which they were erecting q new wing
Cnmbing like q cat on this derrick, Viau cut
one Oh the ropes. he then with the aid Of the
rope climbed from the new wing TO the roof of
tue main building. Here he was seen by the
guard, o dead shot. The desperate convict
lodged back, ran along y wall, dropped into
garoen ON the other side and dashed through
the village, having just three hours OF dark.
