A DARING ESCAPE.
Two Prisoners Plan Jail Delivery Well
They Get Out and Away, ard No
Trace of One of Them Can
he FOuud.


Trace of One of Them Can
be Found.
BOSTON, December ga we'll planned
and daring escape from the State Prison at
Charlestown was made about 8 o'clock last
night by two prisoners-Frank. Ritchie, q
years of age, and Thomas COnaty, 20 years
who were sentenced from Springfield to II
,years each for breaking into james Cooms'
factory, in Long Meadow, and attempting
to kill the proprietor. A block of granite,
IA by % inches, in the roof of Ritchie's cell
had been removed, allowing free access to
the ventilator. Two geography covers had
been inserted in its place, and the change
carefully concealed.
Last night the prisoners had been attend
ing evening school in the chapel, as usual,
and on their return to their cells, Conaty,
whose cell was directly opposite Ritchie's,
stepped into the latter's cell with him and
quickly made his way into the ventilator.
When the officer came around to make his
count he found Conaty's cell vacant, but
Ritchie responded to his name. The officer
at once reported the absentee, and when the
keepers returned to the cells Richie had
also 0OW0s
The men had ropes, which, alter they had
crawled up the ventilator and made their
way to the roof, they attached to the water
spout and descended to the prison wall.
Then they dropped to the ground, and went
in different directions. Conaty emerged
from the main oate OF the prison upon
Austin street just as Patrolman Moore, of
station Is, was pulling in his regular signal
from patrol box opposite. The officer saw
Conaty, who started on a run, with Moore in
hot chase, and after a short trial of speed
the convict was captured.
So rapidly were all the details of the es-
cape and capture executed that in ten min
utes from the time Conaty left the chapel he
was brought into the prison Office captive,
by the alert officer. Ritchie succeeded in
in making his escape, and has not vet been
heard from. A reward of 500 is offered for
his capture.

Oregon is Getting Out OF That Rut.

There is widely diffused throughout
Oregon q very mean spirit which man
ifests itself in expressions of discon-
tent and envy whenever it is reported
that individuals or localities are grow
ing in wealth and prosperity. An old
fogy notion prevails that whatever is
gained in property and prosperity by
an individual or by a locality is wrong
fully taken from other individuals OF
other localities. Hence there are
throughout Oregon great numbers of
persons whose thoughts are mainly
employed in endeavors to prevent
others from making money, or in
grumbling if others do make money.
This notion that no person or place
can make money except at the expense
Of some other person or place, is one
of the characteristics of old Oregon.
Hence an active, energetic and pros
porous man is regarded as a public
enemy, and prosperous and pro-
gressiye town. is denounced as rem
devious of robbers who are getting
rich off the unrequited industry of the
country.-OregopiGn.

sewer In Victoria, B. c., so freely
last Friday as to cause an explosion
that ruined 500 feet of pipe.
The sheep raisers of eastern Oregon
are selling off their fiocks as fast as

Capt. J. NJ. Weatherwax, the exten-
sive Aberdeen mill man, is putting In
a ship yard at that place and new
vessel will soon be built there with a
capacity of over 100000 feet of lum-
ber.
The Seattle relief committee has
at present S42, ,592.Q in its treasury,
left over from the contributions from
all parts of the country, made in re-

Captain Hinton and his navigating
officer, Lieut.. Barrett, of the British
war steamer Anphtora, have been re-
prima anded by a court martial, at Vic
toria, B. c., for the recent accident,
and one years seniority deducted
from Barrett.
The plans for the new steamer to be
built for the 0. r. & n. Co.'s Sound
division are now done, and bids for
the construction are being received
The Portland builder has compiled
the figures for which he will agree to
build the steamer. The cost. includ-
ing the furniture, is estimated to be
about 100000, and when done, the
steamer will be the finest on the coast
as well as the fastest.
At $40 o'clock Wednesday morning
the first through fast mail train from
Omaha arrived at the Union Pacific
depot in Portland. The train con-
sisted of the mail car, express, one
coach, a dining car and a Pullman.
The time from Omaha to Portland
was fifty-nine hours and twenty-four
minutes, the best ever made between
the two points. The mail which came
in on this train was delivered at least
one day earlier than if it had come
under the old schedule time.

voyage, and making one of the quick.
est trips on record. The BorToa0dale,
which left Astoria July IL, and in.
tended to try conclusions with the
WeStlG1d, arrived out November 4
making the voyage in 110 days. They
are both smart ships and their owners
may well feel proud of their latest
achievements. The WeStla1ld was
dispatched by Meyer, Wilson & Co.
Speaking of quick voyages, probably
the fastest time yet made between
Astoria and Queenstown was that
made by the CGithLOch, Captain Phil

THAT MISSING MANI
He Is In San Francisco By This Time.
A Few Well Meant Suggestions Thereon.

Our contemporaries are supposed
like all newspapers, to work for the
good of the town, but ever since they
were started, they have been doing
their little best or worst, unintention-
ally, perhaps, to give Astoria black
eye.
Here where the facts are known,
people generally read and laugh at
their sensational efforts to make out
Astoria to be headquarters for thieves
and cut throats, but their items are
copied and do widespread harm.
People who know no better have
the idea that this is a terrible place,
and an unsafe city to live in-and give
us wide berth.
Thus capital and immigration are
scared away, and, unwilttngly perhaps,
but no less surely, these publications
injure it in very material sense.
The Historian dislikes controversy,
or local disputes, but its duty to the
city whose interests and welfare it
has so long labored for, justifies it in
alluding briefly to this matter, in q
way not intended to be unkind, nor
to provoke malicious reioinder, but as
a statement of manifest fact.
Take, for instance, the last case;
that of Bennett.
| THE AsToRIAN gave the exact facts:
that he came here, passed worthless
check, got $500 on it, and jumped the
game.
That was all there was or is to it.
Yet in both our contemporaries we
find it reported as mysterious dis
appearance" and all sort of dark al
lusions to dreadful possibilities, and
in yesterday evenings Transcript it
is thought that he has 'had his throat
cut by some murderer and thrown
loverboard."
Now, we submit to any man who
has the interests OF our city at hea rt,
is this business? Is it common sense?
TO thus surmise and create the i'm
preston abroad that man can't come
here without danger to life and prop
erty.
Isn't it better for a newspaper to
spend little time aud money in get
ting the facts, than to rush hastily
into print with such horrible sur
mises?
The facts were easily ascertainable.
The Historian unearthed and pub
lished them yesterday, and further on
gives the sequel to the affair. Our
contemporaries, by similar exertion,
could do the same.
The AsToRIAN thinks that it would
be better to confine these things to
the recital of facts-they are bad
enough sometimes-without exagera-
ton or uncalled for suppositions.
Nothing should be suppressed;
crime or violence or rascality should
be showed up, but nothing should be
published that can not be clearly SUBJ
stantiated. or that the facts do not
justify.
In saying this, THE Historian is
either right or wrong, and will leave it
to Astorians to decide.
