vated. 1t is not necessary 10 follow the
ignus fdtuus of boom towns, but settle
down in pleasant surroundings, with
healthful atmosphere and good water, and

the grand lodge of Ancient Order United
Workmen was the creation of the office Of

W. w. Statesman: Charles Clark, the
convict, who last November endeavored to
escape from the penitentiary and was shot
by one of the guards, is playing the insanity
dodge, or at least such is the opinion of the
warden and guards. He rsved in his cell
during the greater portion of Friday night,
and broke into fragments everything break
able. such as chairs, stools, etc. He refused
yesterday morning to answer any questions
or enter into conversation, but sits ON the
floor of his cell mumbling incoherentIy to
himself. 1t Is very probable that he chooses
the insane asylum rather than the peniten-
tiary, anticipating thereby an easy means
Of escape. which, to his sorrow, he has tried
once before.
