Planned to- Escape.

Woodford Hughes and James
Ratcliffe, both of whom are con-
fined in Jail upon charge Of rob-
berry, had planned to make their
escape, but their little scheme was
thwarted by the watchful eye Of
Uncle Minus Williams, the jailer
Seeing that they were plotting
some devilment on Sunday he
caused them and their cells to be
searched, when a long rope made
from the sheets of his bed, torn
in strips and plated, was found in
the possession of Hughes-part on
his person, concealed under his
shirt, and the balance in the mat
tress of his bed, which had been
cut open-and a knife made into
a saw was taken from Ratclihe.
1t was their intention 10 get out
on the roof through the trap door
opening into room in the third
story where prisoners are allowed
to remain during the day, then
lower themselves to the ground
with the rope. Or, failing in this,
the bars of window were to be
cut with the saw and through the
opening made to reach the ground
by means Of the rope. They have
now been separated and placed
where they would find it rather
hard work cutting their way out
even if they had the tools to do it
with.

A Great Improvement.

One Of the greatest improve
ments ma'le by the recent City
Council was the substitution OF
electric for gas light upon the
streets, without increased expense.
The lights were turned on for the
first time Saturday night and
Illuminated the streets beautifully.
AS is the case with almost all new
machinery, when first started,
everything did not work as
smooth as it might. and after run
ming Saturday and Sunday nights
the lights were turned off until
Wednesday, by which time every
thing was gotten into good shape
and the lamps lighted again,
much to the delight Of our people,
for when once accustomed to
electric light. to return to gas is
like going back to the tallow dips
OF our fathers.
All honor to the Council who
gave us this and many other good
things-the best Council we have
had in years. They started the
old town up grade, and let us hope
that those who are to come after
will keep her going in the same
direction.

Senator Voorhees,, if he did not exactly evolve
new idea, nj least served up an old fallacy in
a new form when he described the panic Of 1873
as the torrent of bankruptcy and ruin occlsioned
by the demonetization Of silver in that year.
The Senator did not try to explain how the de-
monefization of metal that was then selling at
a premium brought about the river, probably be-
cause he could not Neither did he try TO en-
plain his disbelief in Grcsham's law Of all financial
principles the most firmly established nor why,
almost before the declaration that lie had no de-
sire to assal the National banks had left his lips,
he launched forth into an abusive TRADE against
them.

FOREIGN AGRICULTURISTS SURPRISED.

Kibourn. Wis, Aug. 24-Through Wisconsin at
the rate of slxty-one miles an hour the special
train for the Worlds Fair bearing foreign rep
resentatives and newspaper correspondents was
whrled this morning from Milwaukee toward the
wheat fields of the Northwest. From the tracks
of the Milwaukee and st. Paul road on either side
spread harvest fields and belts OF well-trmmed
timber that aroused enthusiasm I'm the breasts Of
even the experienced agriculturists from France,
England and the still older countries of the Orient,
surprised at the advanced state of the industry
in the West and reluctant to believe that farms
of thousands of acres could be worked to the per-
lection of the small patches of garden. Alfred
Dckey, the executive manager OF the Dakota
exhibit. was informally installed as guide and lec-
turer and told stories of Dakota wheat crops
that opened the eyes of his hearers The first
stop was made at Kilbourn CITY, and visit
paid TO the Dells of Wisconsin after which the
train proceeded on It's way toward Minneapolis and
s. Paul.
