evening another attempt was made with
bricks and clubs at the same place. The
windows were smashed and Haskell,

IN A FINE NEW JAIL.
Young Mr.. Leonard Probably Won't Es-

Especial to the Press.1

RocKLAND, December Is. - Thomas
Leonard, who escaped from the court
house Jail Tuesday night was recaptured
last night in Bath. ~ He had shaved off
his moustache and secured partial
shange of clothing, in which disguised
condition he boarded the train at Thorn
aston. His movements there were sus-
picious, and Sheriff gray was warned of
them by telephone. The latter prompt
ly wired Officer J. W. Peabody, who was
already in Brunswick watching western
bound trains, to return to Bath. In the
meantime Leonard arrived in Bath only
to find himself in custody. The Bath
police were only half sure of their man,
and were about to release him when Off
Ger Peabody arrived and Leonard sur
rendered instantly when he saw that Off
Ger. He claimed to have left vessel at
Thomaston, and was going to Boston.
His recapture is important, from the fact
that he had just been indicted for an un-
bailable offence and was in custody for
another. Heis now confined in the new
jail. The prison and Jail inspectors
were here yesterday, and pronounced the
jail one of the finest in the state.
