Attempted Sail Break.

The four men in the county Jail,
held to appear before the Grand Ju-.
ry for robbing the express Office
here, made an attempt to gain their
freedom Wednesday by tunneling
under the stone wall of the Jail.
They raised three boards from the
floor of the corridor and dug hole
under the wall in the same place
that Swarts and CAVITY broke out
some years ago. On Tuesday Sher-
if Donnelly suspected that his birds
were up to some scheme and he
watched them pretty closely.
Wednesday evening while they
were eating supper he examined
their cells and found the mattresses
therein filled with rocks and dirt
After they had eaten supper he or
dered them into their cells and after
a little prospecting found the hole
they had dug, which only lacked a
foot of letting them out. The i'm
plement they used to dig the hole
was a piece of a broomstick with a
bunch of wire tied on one end of it.
Since the attempt to break Jail the
birds have been confined in the
cells, and they will probably not
receive as many favors now as here
tofore

Pretty little Emma Abbott is no more, and
thousands Of people ali over the continent
are very sorry to know it. She was really
an honest little soul as ever the American
stage knew. And the love that she Law
ished upon her husband was positively
pathetic. 1t was born of gratitude for his
gracefully kindly aid in the years of her
early struggles with fame, which he greatly
lightened in the most delicate ways. Unlike
the husbands Of most actresses he was
thoroughly a gentleman and entirely worthy
of her devotion. Those who have observed
her clingiIg caresses on the Stage may
form some idea of the passionate ardor of
which she was capable. Very likely it was
her own kindness of heart In travelling sever
al miles through the rain TO sing to a dying
man that killed her by superinducing pneu-
monia. But it does seem a trife strange
that she should have died on the anniver-
sary of her husbands death, saying that her
next song will be in heaven. Few stage
people have led SO blameless life as poor
little Emma Abbott, whose tender songs
are now forever hushed "In the voiceless
silence. of the dreamless dust"

The interest was due 70 an exhibition Of lace
window curtains. which had been embroidered
with heraldic devices of every conceivable or

III IS not an uncommon thing in Europe for the

appropriated run on bank by making
a very vigorous claim for recognition, such
as policemen usually make. He could not
understand why it was that any man in the
great river-town of st. Louis should not
recognize a policeman. 1t didn't so much
matter which policeman he was He had
draft that he wanted the cashier to pay, aud
from his actions one would naturally judge
that he had been subjected TO several strong
alcoholic draughts before he got to the
bank. AS his previous experience had been
so easy and agreeable he seemed to think
that the bank required no greater precau-
tions. So he began to tell the cashier that
he didn't believe the bank had the necessary
funds. This excited the suspicion of several
prospective depositors who had their pen
mics stored there. and they proceeded to
draw the largest checks they could. 1t made
trouble for a short time. but even a police
man cannot break solvent bank unless he
waits until Q officers go home.

Oscar Fay Adams in the January number
of the North american Rerieio writes
about the characteristics of men. Those
who take the trouble TO read his article
may have suspicion that he hasn't studied
his subject very carefully. For instance,
he says that men are indignant when they
hear of outrages upon women because they
look upon crimes against property as more
heinous than any other, and that sit is use
less to deny that the average man regards
his wife as his property" Continuing he
says: 1.-THE indignation which a man feels
at hearing of some assault upon woman
differs in degree but scarcely in kind from
the horror with which certain frontier COM
munites regard the crime of horse-stealing."
If this isn't a Islander upon men it is diff
to say what is.
