EsoAPED FROM JAIL.

August Brehm OF waIiina ford Com
fined I'm the County Jail for Bur-
glarY and who Left for parts I'm
known Was Captured last Even
ing In wallingford by Sheriff Rod
Austin and Was Brought Back to
This City.
August Brehm. who was sent to the
county Jail from WalHngford for burglary,
escaped from that institution yesterday
morning and no clue to his whereabouts
has as yet been obtained.
Brehm and Thomas Nugent were
sentenced to one year in jail for burglary
some elk months ago. Brehm was put to
work as fireman in what is known as the
fire room. His good behavior won for him
special privileges and he went about al
most unrestricted. Yesterday morning he
succeeded in breaking one of the windows
and removing two or three bars and thus
made his escape.
Turnkey Hotchkiss of the jail yesterday
went to Wallingford and told the officers
| there to be on the lookout.
Brehm has a wife and sister living in
| Wallingford and Is quite well known there
He is about twenty years of age.
Brehm had been left to clean up some
ashes around the boiler and the keepers
were upstairs in the work room, where re
1igious services were being held, ane
Brehm seized this opportunity to squeez,
| through the bars-which he could well do
being q small man and thin and wiry
The force at the jail Is rather small aut
| some men have to be trusted.
Heretofore Brehm proved very faithful
and apparently trustworthy. He had blu
two months more to serve In jail and hi
escape is only accounted for from the be
lief that he had some special worrimen
upon his mind. He had been appsrentl,
very anxious and uneasy for several day
back.
Brehm was captured in Wellington,
last evening. He was found by Sheriff
Rod Austin at the home of his brother in
law in North Farms and was brought t

THE cHnIsrrAN,s HERITAGE.

An Excellent Sermon at Grace M. e.
Church by the New Presiding Elder,
Rev. J. Crandan North.
Rev. J. Crandall North, the present pre-
siding elder of this circuit, preached at the
Grace N. e. church yesterday morning
from the text, For all things are yours,
whether Paul or Appollos, or Cephas, or
the world, or life, or death, or present
things, or things to come; all are yours"
I. Corinthians Iii: 81, %. He took as bis
theme "The Christians Heritage" on
which he preached brilliant sermon. Mr.
Crandall ia a most forcible and incisive
speaker and has fine, clear vocabulary.
He'speaks entirely extemporaneously and
| imprsgses his audience with his strong
personality. He has seventy FIVE churches
under his care and Is the youngest pre-
siding elder in the conference. He will
make his headquarters in this city and is
stopping for the time being at Rev. Will
lam T. Hills, 81 Howe street.
| In his sermon yesterday he treated of
| the different positions taken by the various
sects in regard to many of the doctrines of
the Bible. He said that death was desir-
able heritage, and as forcibly illustrating
this he said that until the time of Christ
the river of death lay like q vague and IN
discovered region afar off in the distance.
1 But Christ revealed the mysterious coun-
try of the other side of the river just as
Columbus discovered America Then the
whole world rose up and claimed death as
its heritage just as England, France and
Spain claimed America as their own. He

the logician, and Apollos, the orator, and
Cephas or Peter were not altogether
right in any blind belief which
comprehended only part of the truth
They were much like the Inhabitants of I
certain city. who were all blind. Once, i
ia related, an elephant happened to pas
through the streets of the ancient town
The inhabitants could only describe 1t b.
the way 1t felt to them. They described
the parts they had felt of correctly, bu
about the remainder said nothing. 81
they were all right in part and yet al
wrong, as 1t was the combination Of 81
form and outline of the animal.
He also spoke of the memory of tn
names of our great men as q heritage o
which we are justly proud. The name
of Washington, Grant, Lincoln, Sumner
are most precious to the people in Americ
and Wellington, Nelson and Gladstone t
the English people. Yet no Englishms

1.-THE Span Of Life" which closed six weeks
run at the Fourteenth Street theater, New York,
Saturday night, comes direct to the new Grand
opera house for three nights and a matinee COM
mencing tonight. An intensely thrilling and re-
markedly exciting exhibition of nerve and
strength will be seen in this production During
a scene which is laid in most rugged and noun
famous region in Africa, it became necessary to
cross chasm with roaring cataract benea'h to
escape being killed by savage tribe of Arabs
Rather than be taken by these brutes the male
members of the pursued party, seeing all other
means of escape cut Off, in sheer desperation
mount each other, and when linked together exc
cute thrilling drop across the CHASTITY opening :,
thus by almost superhuman power forming a
veritabIe bridge Of bodies which serves as a
crossing for the others. This act, although sue
GUS undertaking, and has never been attempted
by any other athletes excepting the famous Will
son family of London, who appear in the preduc-
ton. These masterpiece of picturesque stage art
are furnished by Mr.. Raftef to ennbellish the
plot and add realism to the ensemble, the most
striking of them the "Peter's Fipgers'' pub
lie house, the light house on ''Cofffn Rocks, ~
Revenshire England, and the "Jungies and
Forests of Africa, and the great "King's
Chasm,'' with its roaring torrents of falling
water, where the span is made from which the
play takes its name.
