Several young men went to the rescue
Of the fallen Grand Juryman and they
picked him and his load up together. One
side of him was a mudplaster. 1t reached
from the crown of his head to his foot.
His clothes were ruined and his face was
so concealed by the mud that his friends
did not recognize him. He was taken to
a nelghboring ''gin MILL" where he had q

New YORK, April 4.-Two desperate
burglars who recently escaped from a
Massachusetts, prison, were captured in
this city.
They were taken into custody by two
members Of Inspector Byrnes' staff after
a slight struggle. A companion at
tempted to assault the detectives, but
he, too, was arrested.
"Dick" Drohan and George e. Welles
are the two thieves who sawed their way
out Of the Charlestown State Prison last
March. Both were known TO be desper-
ate characters, who would stop at moth
ing in order to gain THAR liberty. The
prison was crowded, however, and they
were confined in the same cell. An
armed guard paced their cell door every
20 minutes, but in spite Of this they
managed, with steel ribbon saws which
had been smuggled in to them, to cut
asunder the steel bars on the window of
their cell. They then pried off the bars,
descended from the window by means of
ropes made from their bed clothing, and
scaling the walls were free.
