Attempt at JAN De,Ivery.


There was well executed effort dis
ce vered last night to break jail at the
court house, and give those incarcerated
their liberty. This was done by cutting
a hole through the roof Of the corridor,
and this had progressed so far that the
| prisoners would soon have breathed the
| air of freedom if the officers had not
nlpped it IN the bud The lathes and
plaster of the ceiling were cut through
with jack-knife, and the roof offered
but little obstacles to the prisoners. The
place was covered with square piece OF
white muslin. and held in position by be-
ing pasted at the corners. For some time
the officers were aware of the fact, and
only waited for it to be ready to be car
ried into execution before they efectually
stopped 1t. They knew the man who was
the principal actor, and since noon he
has worn heavy jewelry on his right leg.
OF course the men had TO work IN a very
inconvenient position, standing on the
ledge of the iron window frame; but
they were almost at the fruition OF their
hopes when they halted at the call OF
Sheriff Ward and Deputy Phirman. This
attempt disclosed the fact that the ceiling |
makes the county Jail very unsafe, and
should Immediately be made more secure. |
