There is peculiar gravity in the de-

GURDINE HORTON SKIPS.
A COUNTY JAIL PRISONER GAINS
HIS LIBERTY.
An All-Around Crook and Bad Man Gen.
orally Eludes His Jailors - Sup
posed to Have Climbed Out ~
Through the Engine House.

Gurdine Horton, the all around horse
thief and crooked man generally, very
adroitly escaped from the county Jail
last evening about o'clock, and up to a
late hour last night, although number
of officers were searching for him, he had
not been recaptured. -
Horton was in the county Jail under a
for swindliDg Frenchman few weeks
ago in hay transaction. Another
charge was pending, of horse stealing, to
be brought up when he had served the
100 days. He is the same Horton who
nearly year ago ran away with girl
from Los Angeles, leaving his wife, and
taking with him also team which did
not belong to him. He was captured at
the girl when his wife had procured a
divorce. He managed to slip through
the hands of the law on the stealing OF
the team. and the officers could not get
him dead to rights until this recent
case. At the Jail he had been allowed
to 60 out OF the tanks as trusty, and it
was by reason of this privilege that the
slippery fellow made his ESCAPE.
At 6o'clock Deputy Sheriff Mic Quirolo,
who is one of the deputy jailers, went
out with two TRUSTEES, Jean Forrest and
VIM. Bonner, to have some slops
emptied. Jailer Russell was at supper,
and Deputy Roques in the front of the
jail. Quirolo unlocked the heavy doors
leading from the tank room into the en-
gine house. back of the Jail. and went
ahead of the TRUSTEES to the outer door,
a distance of about 25 feet. The slops
were emptied, and, with the men ahead
of him, the deputy returned inside the
tank. Nothing seemed wrong, and nc
sign of any slipping out had been noticed
Quirolo went off watch Immediately
afterwards. At 7 o'clock. when the rol
was called, Horton was missing. A
search failed to disclose any othel
method by which he escaped than tha
of having slipped through the door into
the engine room while the deputy ant
TRUSTEES we're going to the outside door
1t was nearly dark in the room and ht
could easily have secreted himself.
There is hole in the roof of the en-
gine room, and Jailer Russell found
evidences that he had climbed through
it and reached the street over the wal
| outside. Horton must have gone arounG
the south side of the lower tank anG
been ready to slip out of the door as soor
as the TRUSTEES had gone through. Thi
door, Deputy Quirolo states, cannot b
locked from the outside, and the custom
had been to only lock the outer doc
leading into the yard, when slop wa
emptied. The kindness shown by th'
jailer to the fugitive was very much mis-
| placed. Heis such an ungrateful rasca
that he should have been kept in tn
tanks, from which escape is impossible
1t is hoped he may be retaken, as he i
dangerous man to be at large.

Consumption Cured.

An old physician, retired from practice,
having had placed in his hands by an East
India missionary the formula of a simple
vegetable remedy for the speedy and per-
manent cure of Consumption, Bronchitis,
Catarrh, Asthma and all throat and Lung
Affections, also positive and radical cure
for Nervous Debility and all Nervous Com
plants, after having tested its wonderful
curative powers in thousands of cases, has
felt it his duty to make it known to his suf-
fering fellows. Actuated by this motive
and q desire to relieve human suffering,
will send free of charge, to all who desire
it, this recipe, in German, French or Eng
lish, with full directions for preparing and
use. Sent by mail by addressing with
stamp, naming this paper. W. A. MOVES,

Another Letter from H. S. Wood.

Owensboro, KY, March 26, 1892.
FRIEND COPELAND: Your letter and q
copy of the Leader came to hand a few
days ago, and was glad to see some signs
of North Dakota. They brought me news
of many things in the county, and, saddest
of all, the intelligence of the death of little
Arthur Satterlund. That was surprise,
and a sorrowful one, which had little
dreamed would come to pass. How sadly
he will be missed by his parents and sis
ters, and by all who were accustomed to
seeing him.
I observe that friend Casselman has
gone into another branch of trade-the
grocery and dry goods. I should think
Larry would be able to sell almost any
thing. also note that he is on the best
of terms with his old political enemy, which
proves that he is still open to conversion,
and have hopes of his ultimate reception
into the church. I remember that he did
once pass around the plate, acting as dea-
con for Bro. Brownell.
Well, Dick, we have been having some
very suggestive weather here; snow every
day nearly for week. In fact, March has
been generally snowy. Ihave been wealth
er-bound for the greater part of the month,
there being but few days that proved
pleasant. The roads here are most abom-
Unable. I do not believe the science of
roadmaking is yet acquired here, as I
have seen little evidence of it so far. A
gravel-road company got charter some
years ago to grade the chief roads of the
county, as they we're in rather poor shape.
The company put up toll-gate at the en-
trance to the city, and now the farmers
pay toll over roads they practically built
themselves. The Hardinsburg road, for
instance, is graveled for seven miles, and
the rates are for one horse and buggy, Csc;
for team and wagon, 35c. The road is
barely wide enough for sheader' to move
along without running into the bitches,
and no team could pass that implement.
"header" to cross-but they have no head
ers here. The roadway is usually about
16 feet wide, and between the fences it is
hardly two rods in most places. fancy
a gravel-road company running things
that way with us!
This town is great tobacco market
about the third in the United States-and
also ranks high as whisky district. Dis
tilleries are as thick as temperance halls
in prohibition town. Good whisky can
be bought here by the gallon for two dol
lars, which would bring IS to So up there.
They claim there is no So whisky made
at distilleries.
The tobacco crop was immence last sea-
son, and the price has been very good this
winter. The farmers have made great
deal of money, Three acres of tobacco
are worth from 5000 to $500, and some-
times more. No planting begun yet. The
season bids fair to be wet one.
Yours, &C., H. S. WOOD.

Conkling, April 11th, 1892.

Conkling, April 11th, 1892.
The past week has not been altogether
favorable to farmers.
The hard freezing at night makes it
necessary for the plow-boy to rest until
about 2 O'Clock p. M, and one or two days
the ground scarcely thawed out. On the
other hand the rain and snow which comes
by fits and starts-and now and then stops
keep the ground wet, but the earth will
be in fine condition to grow wheat when
the warm weather comes, which is only q
matter of time, and short time at that,
as Easter will be here next Sunday.
The Sunday just past was rather stormy
for our Sunday school, and as we believed
it would keep until next Sunday. we got
close to the stove and staid there all day.
We learn that there will be preaching
at Conkling on Sunday, April 18th, at II
o'clock a. m. As Sunday school is at 10
o'clock a. m. this will hit US about right.
A big prairie fire last Wednesday started
in at John Carlson's. and went southeast
on the fly. The Conkling people got out
head the blaze off. They hit it hard
cuOuSu Ou Uuo IAKuV AdAA w covO OIL VAAo
pasture at Conkling. -Four or five of our
farmers fought the blaze almost all night.
We learn that the fire started from the
burning of straw stack at John Carlson's
place. Our people cannot be too careful
with their fire.
At the meeting of the g. A. R. post Sat-
urday it was resolved, "That we make an
effort to properly observe Memorial Day"
Should the weather prove fine there is no
reason Why we should not meet and pay
our respects to the memory of those who
fell fighting for their country, and also to
those who have since fallen by the way
side. It will be as heretofor, 'eveybody
come, bring your wife and children-not
forgetting the big basket" There has, as
yet, been no arrangements made, and
may be shooting my wad little pemature.
Should this prove to be the case, please
excuse "JAcK OF CLUES"

Robinson e. Casselman have just re-
ceived carload of wagons and buggies.
The wagons are the Rushford make, man.
ufactured by the Winona Wagon company,
and are just what our farmers need. They
have also several fine carriages and buck
boards from the same factory, which can
not fail to please anyone desiring to pur-
chase vehicle for elegance and ease.
Jake Bureau brought up Thursday two
loads for the Headquarters" store. A
portion of his cargo was "King John," a
yearling Shetland pony recently purchased
in South Dakota by Laurence Casselman.
The little fellow is a thoroughbred and
took the first premium at the Sioux Falls
fair last fall. Larry will build him stall
in bandbox, and train him for the Derby
next summer.
Il. Robinson, agent for the Mortgage
Bank g. Investment Co., of Fargo, returned
to Washburn Thursday night from trip
through Mercer county on the west side
Of the Missouri. He says the condition of
things in that county are the worst he has
seen anywhere in the state. All the mort
gagged farms there are deserted, and he
could not find man to whom he could
lease single piece of land.
Rev. Geo. Mckay will hold religious
services at the Washburn school house to-
morrow at IL o'clock a. m. Mr.. Mckay
represents the Presbyterian denomination,
and will be stationed at Washburn during
the coming summer, and will probably
hold regular services here and at Coal Har-
bor during his stay. Rev. Mckay is a
young man, but possesses the appearance
of gentleman cultured and we'll fitted for
his mission.
The many friends of Nolan Katz, living
five miles south of Washburn, will regret to
learn of the death of his infant child, aged
about months, which occurred on Monday
evening, April 4th, 1892. The little one
had been suffering several weeks with the
whooping congh, which was the cause of
it's death. Mr. Katz, who had been absent
for some time on a trip to the coast and
through California, was met with the sad
news of the loss of his child on his return
to Bismarck last Sunday, and he fastened
home in company with his brother Joseph
with sad and heavy heart. The bereaved
family have our heartfelt sympathy.
We are sorry to learn of the loss sus-
tanned by Maj. j. S. Murphy few days
ago. 1t appears he was going to his ranch
located up the Missouri with load of
groceries and provisions for his men, and
that when he reached Shell creek he found
that stream bank full of water. Anxious
to reach the ranch he determined to cross
the creek and forced his team into the
water. When in the middle of the stream
the wagon turned over and the current
carried the team and everything down
stream, drowning the horses, which were
said to be quite valuable. The major
swan to the other and walked IA miles to
the nearest ranch. Nothing but the wagon
was recovered.
