Odd Names for Birds.

There are some odd names for game birds far down the Chesapeake. A small shy snipe that flies with twit- tering noise is called the horsefoot snipe, because of its fondness for the horse-foot or horseshoe crab. It is called also the turnstone, from it's habit of overturning pebbles in search of food. The telltale snipe bears that name because it always sounds note of alarm at the sight of a. gunner. Chesapeake gunners believe that sin gle telltale can clear a whole region of game birds. The widgeon is locally called the bald pate, and the willet is so called because of it's cry: ''Will-will- wiletr'

THEY DIG OUT OF JAIL
Five Prisoners Escape from the
City Prison Saturday Night.
THEY PICK A HOLE In THE WALL.
other Prisoners Could Have Got Out
Rue Preferred to RemaEm Behind

Other Prtsone rs Could Have Got Out
hut Preferred to Remain Behind
Five prisoners escaped from the city
prison Saturday night by digging
through the north wall of the mems
apartment The prisoners who escaped
are Jerry Sullivan, Frank Vaughn and
Nate Click, tramps who were serving
twenty five days each for fighting; and
Frank White and Clarence Mcdowell,
who were in for twenty five days each
for petty larceny. The remaining ten
prisoners could have escaped but their
terms were nearly served out, and they
preferred to stay inside rather than run
the chances of capture and re-commitral.
An old broken pick with only q part
of the handle left was the tool the pris-
Oners used to effect their delivery Lit
was smuQgled in from the stonepile
The first attempt was made in the south
west corner of the room where there Is
a nook concealed from the door. Here
the floor was taken up but after digging
for awhile the prisoners concluded Ii
would be easier to dig through the main
wall A place was selected about three
feet above the floor behind one of the
large steel cages The heavy rain beat
ing down on the tin roof of the corridor
helped the prisoners by drowning out
the noise of the blows. The wall is one
OF solid stone and masonry. ABOUT el8u-
teen inches in thickness. 1t is estimated
that it required about two hours to get
hole through of sufficient size to allow
passage through. The five prisoners
who took advantage OF the escape
climbed over the north fence Of the jail
yard.
The escape was not discovered until
sunrise, when Dick Wales, the prison
trGsty, saw the hole in the wall He no
titled JaiIer Dagg, and soon the whole
force was hunting for the escaped
men. The other prisoners refuse to
tell what time the escape was made, but 1t
is thought to have been been between ~
and l o'clock. Charley White, Franks
younger brother, refused to take advan-
tage of the chance to escape. He is In
jail only for fifteen days. The hole in
the wall was filled up yesterday with
better quality of concrete and mortar
than was originally used. The escape
developed the fact that the walls of the
prison are made chiefly of very small
rocks and that escape through the walls
is a comparatively easy matter.
1t is only matter of time until Frank
White and Clarence Mcdowell are re-
turned to the prison again. They turn
up with great persistence and never get
far from Topeka. As for the other pris-
oners they have probably got a good
ways fT&m Topeka by this time, and the
police Ste glad Of it. They would have
released them any time on their positive
assurance that they would get out of
town.

JUDGE nAZEN'S DECISION.
In the New York Insurance Companies
Case Faverg the Companies.


Case Favsrs the Companies.
In the district court this morning
Judge Hazen decided the cases brought
by the state against IS New York fire in
surance companies, in favor of the COM
panles- The cases were brought by In
surance Commissioner Snider through
Attorney General Little, in the name of
the state, to compel the companies to pay
to the state tax Of five eighths of one
per cent on all Kansas premiums. The
suits were against all of the New York
nre insurance companies doing business
IN Kansas The tax was demanded on
the ground that foreign companies paid
similar tax into the state treasury of
New Yark. Judge w. G. Webb appear
cd for the state, and d. r Hite for the
insurance companies.
Judge Hazen decided the case against
the state on the ground that the act of
the New York legislature compelling
the payment of the tax was revoked by
subsequent act passed in 1885, and the
court cited a decision of the attorney
general of New York to show that the
law in question was now imperative.
Among the companies involved in the
suit were: The Germania, Hanover,
German Phoenix of Brooklyn,
Continental, West Chester, Williamsburg
City, Pacific Fire, Agricultural. American
and Niagara.
Court Notes.
AC CdS0 OA tue NdL1Oad1 OdSn Ib0RlS-
ter company against T. c. Magofin. who
started a Temperance drug store" at 81
Kansas avenue over a year ago, which
soon ended in the sheriff's hands, was
decided against the plaintiff today by
Judge Hazen. The cash register was
sold to Magotfin. but never fully paid for.
The price was 5000, but only about 800
was paid. When the stock was attached
by McPike & Fox. of Atchison, the cash
register was taken along with other fix
lures in the store. The Cash Register
people tried to ge it back from McPike
d Fox on a writ of replevin. The court
held that as there was no written con-
tract filed between the Cash Register
company and Magoffin, McPike 81 Fox
were entitled to the cash register.
When Nick Child's joint was closed
under an injunction, the counters and
other of the club outfit were in
cluded in the writ Now Childs wants
the writ modified in order to get out one
counter, which he says doesn't belong to
him, but some body else. Lawyer Jami-
son is arguing the case for him this
afternoon.

HOW HE LOST HIS JOB.
A Keg of Beer Put Four Santa F@ Me
Out of Work.


Out of Work.
The Valley Falls New Era tells this
story about Topeka man. at seems
that a little over week ago Pat O'Brien,
conductor on a Santa Fee freight from
Topeka to St Joseph, was discharged
from the employ of the company. The
cause that led to the discharge was a keg
of beer. O'Brien had received the keg
at Topeka billed to Atchison, but when
his train reached this station Pat con-
cluded he would sell the beer and make
a little money for himself" He pur-
suaded Will Hauck, day helper at the
station to buy the beer for $3.50. Hauck
thought it was all right and believed
O'Brien's plausible story of how he got
the beer at Topeka. When the train
reached Atchison they were short one
key of beer and the agent reported the
loss.
"a tracer was sent out from the freight
Office at Topeka and it was soon found
that the beer h ad been left here, and the
next thing O'Brien knew he was dis
charged. He then went to Atchison and
had the bill clerk there make out false
receipt for a keg of beer, thinking that
this would make the officials believe that
he had taken the beer to Atchison. The
bill clerk was fired and also the clerk at
Topeka Monday night Will Hauck was
let out here, on account of his connection
with the transaction O'Brien lives in

A. r.. u. ORGANIZING.
a Meeting of 125 Railroad Men in
Topeka Yesterday.
A SPEECH MADE By A DELEGATE
To the Chicago COMMUNICATIONS
Railroad Matters or Note.

/ To the Chicago COnventfOH-Other
| Railroad Matters OF Note.
About 125 enthusiastic men were pres
ent at the hall at 424 Kansas avenue yes
terday afternoon, to talk over the re-or-
ganization of the lodge of the American
Railway Union in this city. Harry Chap
man acted as temporary chairman, in
view of his having been the chairman of
the old lodge.
1t was decided with unanimous en-
thusiasm to re-organize, and r. j. Sioat
was elected permanent chairman of the
new lodge by reclamation. This was as
far as the election got, however. for at
this point Chairman Chapman introduced
Fireman Jack Mayhall of La Junta, Col
orado, who was on his way home from
Chicago, where he had been as a dele
gate to the national convention, and on
invitation he made a very interesting
speech.
at is a mistake that the A R. u. has
agreed to support the Populist party" he
said. 1.-THE truth of the matter is the
leaders of the Populist party have en-
dorsed the A R. .. The union has no
agreement with any organization, labor
or political, excepting the Knights of
Labor. with which it has been agreed
that if one cannot help the other, it shall
at least allow no antagOnism between
them.
%The A. r. U. is union of unions, and
the idea is to combine all railway. labor
into one enormous organization. In this
way something can be accomplished
All departments will work together. We
have an example of it now, in the order
not to handle Pullman coaches after
Tuesday. This order affects all classes
of employees in the A. r. o.. switchmen
well trainmen. The result of the
organization is that the roads
being afraid of strike of that
kind, and not liking the Pullman
monopoly any too well anyway, will
try to pull away from the car company.
Even now some of the eastern roads are
trying to get their contracts with the
Pullman company annulled"
The further officers elected were: Vice
president, P. S. Withers; secretary and
treasurer, G. NJ. Robinson; corresponding
secretary, II. W. Chapman. The next
meeting will be at Trades Assembly hall
next Sunday afternoon at two o'clock,
when the reorganization will be effected
finally and the rest of the officers and
standing committees elected
The lodge expects a chartered mem
bership of at least 200, and thinks it
probable that of the $500 railroad en-
ployes in Topeka. at least 500 will even
tually join the union.
The meeting closed at 6 o'clock, and
MIR. Mayhall left for the west the same
evening.
Heretofore all meetings of the A r
U. have been open to the public, but
after the Goth of July all meetings will
be closed
