two prisoners, who have been confiaed in

dinner and at 5 P. NJ. would go for the
basket and lock ihem up in the cages un-
til the next morning. On going to lock
them up on Thursday evening, he discov
ereo that they had sawed off two of the
bars that form the grating over the door
of the building, and by t,rce had burst
two more of the bars so that the partly
detached square of grating stood at a
right angle from the door, leaving a
square aperture of about l98 square

Missing.

A Portland paper says that on the last
trip of the steamer Eltcood up the William
cite. William Armstrong. the second en-
giueer of that boat, was lost overheard
while the boat was making the trip from
Oregon City TO Salem. NJ one saw the
young man tall overheard, but his sudden
disappearance and other circumstances
leave no doubt as to his fate. During the
afternoon, Armstrong was on duty in the
engine room. The chief engineer rvturped
to the room after a short absence and
missed Armstrong from his post.
The oil can used in oiing the machinery
was also missing and Armstrong; cap was
found lying on the machinist's bench, but
no trace of tine young man could be found.
The most plausible inference in come ction
with bis disappearance Is that he went out
on the fan tail to oll up the bearings about
the wheel. lost his footing and was preci-
pated into the willamette. That he could
not swim is fact verified by his own
statement to that effect, made to Captain
Lee few days ago.
