How Edward Demby Scaled the wall
and Escaped from the New Castle Jail
"A Reward for His Capture.
Special Correspondence of Gazette and journal
NEW CASTLE, Feb. 12.-Edward
DENNY, or Dempsey, colored man,
sentenced TO five years Imprisonment
for attempted felonious assault on Mrs.
Margaret Hukill of Middletown in Sep
TENDER, 1890, made most daring escape
from New Castle Jail last night Demby
was said to be the most powerful man
in the prison. Like some of the other
long-term prisoners, he is good work
man and seemed to be entirely satisfied
with his "home.n Sheriff Simmons has
allowed him to remain outside of his
cell during the day to do chores around
the corridor and yard, although strict
watch has always been kept over him,
Notwithstanding the above.
Last evening, shortly after s o'clock,
DENLY was sent to the west yard of the
Jail to kindle fire, which was to be
used in heating water to boil quantity
Of bed clothes and ticking in the morn
ing Warden Dennison in the mean
time had started on his rounds, locking
the outside doors of the cells for the
several boys who were playing on the
school green came and notified the
authorities that they had seen a man
scale the wall by means of a rope, and
he cut bee line for Orange street. A
search was at once instituted and
DENNY was found to be the only man
missing. Instead of making the fire as
he was instructed, he cut the bedding
into strips, made rope of it, and bend
ing the poker by means of heavy iron
CRATE into hook, threw it over the top
OF the wall, climbed up and let himself
down the outside.
The sheriff at once telephoned to Will
mington and several of the towns along
the Delaware railroad, giving descrip-
ton Of the culprit, and he, with Day
Warden Tucker, started in pursuit, but
up TO late this morning nothing had
been seen or heard from the runaway.
The runaway is described as follows:
About 5 feet inches in hight, heavy
build, very black and smooth face. He
wore cap, but no coat, and check
shirt with u hole burned in one Shout
der. 1t is reported that he boarded a
north bound train without purchasing a
ticket, but this is not verified by anyone.
Sheriff Simmons has offered reward of
$50 for his capture.
Thomas Davis, one of the prisoners
who escaped from the buns quarters
sometime ago has been re-captured and
returned to Jail. He will spend the bal
ance of his term in the dungeon and for
short time his "diet" will be limited

He succeeded in picking off six women
and seven men, followed the floating
vessel as she left the pier and floated
down the river. He says he saw some
Of the crew swimming ashore. He saw
two on a raft of three boards, and he
thinks he saw many struggling in the
water. When the steamer reached the
Fifth street wharf, after narrowly miss
ing Southern railroad pier on the way
the hull sank, leaving the cabin with the
passengers afloat. Here some Of the
people managed to get ashore.
The harbor steamer A. L. Martin wa,

DOVER, Feb. 18.-In regard to the
item in last nights EVERY EVENING
concerning the stealing of Frederick
Young's body, Sheriff Cole says he EN-
ployed James Clifton, the carpenter
who built the scaffold and also the
collins, to haul the two bodies to the
county almshouse and inter them. Mr..
Clifton says he took the bodies to the
almshouse and delivered them to Super
intendent Downes, who said he would
bury them on the farm remote from the
almshouse burial ground. This is all
the sheriff knows about it. He was
offered $40 apiece for the bodies by the
jefferson College students, who were
here on the day Of the execution, but of
course the offer was refused.

DARING BURGLARY.


A daring burglary was committed
early on Tuesday at the residence Of
| Thomas Davidson, No. $40 West Ninth
street When Mr. Davidson's family
retired at late hour Monday night the
house was securely fastened and when
Mrs. Davidson went downstairs Tuesday
morning she found the gas burning
contents of various rooms topsy turvey
and the kitchen door OPEN Upon the
latter there We're three marks, evi.
IDENTIFY made with jimmy, by which
instrument it is supposed an entrance
was effected.
The sole object of the burglars seems
to have been to secure money. They APP
parently did their work deliberately and
since they did not disturb many articles
which would have enriched them con
siderably it is conjectured that they
finally were frightened off.
During their depredations they visited
the room where Mr. Davidson was
asleep and did not awaken him. From
this room they took coat and vest
belonging to him and carried them to
the dining-room They also went to the
room whore Mrs. Davidson was sleeping
and without awakening her obtained
one of her dresses and took it down
stairs. The pockets of the clothing were
rifled but only the money therein, which
amounted to about $32, was carried
away. From Mrs. Davidson's dress $50
was stolen and from Mr.. Davidson's
clothing about So was obtained The
purse in which Mr.. Davidson had his
money was left on the dining-room
table and key in it was not disturbed
Another purse which was taken from
Mr.. Davidson's pocket was left on the
table and the papers which it contained
were scattered around, but none of them
were taken. Three cigars which he put
on pianoin the parlor Monday evening
were pocketed by the marauders, but
two pairs of spectacles, one pair set in
gold, which lay alongside the weeds
were not disturbed Nearby was a pair
of cuffs, containing gold buttons, but
they were not molested.
Since SO many valuable articles were
left untouched, Mr.. Davidson is of the
opinion that the thieves became fright
ened and departed hurriedly. He
thinks it is very strange that none of the
household was awakened. Both he and
his wife have been unwell, and FREE
quently of late they have awolSe nearly
every night. Afterretiring Monday night
they did not awaken until they arose
ON Tuesday. He does not believe they
were drugged, because they have felt
none of the symptoms which would
result therefrom.

Recorder of Deeds James T. Shall
cross Monday killed his famous big
hog, at his farm near McDonough.
He was rouser. The animal was a
Poland China, two years old last May,
and weighed, dressed, sos pounds. This
made an estimated live weight of 1856
pounds, and is doubtless the champion
Of the State. He measured 81 feet from
the end of his snout to the root of his
tail, and his girth was feet. His head
weighed As pounds. He measured 1874
inches through at the chime, and carried
4 inches of solid fat. Despite his great
size, he waddled easily out Of the pen
when the door was opened and walked
cheerfully to his death. He will be
rendered into lard,
