ESCAPED FROM JAZZ.
Two Prisoners Work Their Way Out OF
Jail at ChestertOwn,

Jan at CnestertOwns
CHEsTERTowN, Mp, Sept George
Parker, who was recently arrested In
Baltimore and lodged in Chestertown
jail, charged with stealing $75 from
Captain Mcpherson, of the schooner
Carrie L., escaped from prison in conf
pany with a colored man named vii.
liams, who had been sentenced to the
house OF correction for fighting.
The prisoners gave Sheriff Dodd a
genuine surprise. They were safely
locked in the same cell at late hour ON
tuesday night. The sheriff and his
deputy retired, and not until the sheriff
was called at 9 o'clock this morning did
he have an idea that his birds had flown.
Al $50 O'Clock Mr.. Robert Calder, who
had occasion to pass in the rear Of the
Jail, discovered blankets hanging from
one of the windows. He at once noti-
ned the sheriff that something was
wrong.
An examination disclosed the fact
that the men had removed the iron
brace from their bedstead and had con.
Verted 1t into a screwdiiver, with which
the screws were removed from the lock
OF the cell door and both gained access
to the corridor. The screws were re.
moved from the iron casing Of the steel
grating of the bathroom window. A
portion of the iron casing was pried Off,
and with the blankets tied to piece of
the iron from the window, and that
placed across the bars, the men safely
lowered themselves to the ground and
were free. The other prisoners claim to
know nothing of what was going on
and did not know until they were told
that the prisoners had escaped.
The fugitives had evidently only been
gone a short time when their absence
was discovered, for, Notwithstanding
That rain was falling, the blankets they
@ad employed to escape were not wet
Every possible effort is being made to
recapture the fugitlves, but no clue has
been found as to their Whereabouts.

HOW He Captured the Republican Com
yention of Sussex County.
Sussex journal, September 22d.
Last Tuesday was busy day with
the Republicans of Sussex. The con.
vention to nominate the county ticket
was attended by all the bosses and
would-be bosses and they acted as
though there really was some chance OF
the people reversing the majority they
are in the habit of giving the Democrats.
The contest appeared to be as to
whether Higgins or Addcks should
secure majority of the legislative can.
didates and, commencing the night
before, the battle ragged hot and long.
When the names were announced il
was discovered that there had been
great slaughter among the Higgins men,
and his opponents claimed that all OK.
cept two, or possibly three, were Cd.
posed to the Senator being returned.
With the Republican nominees in Kent
favorable to Addicks, if they shonld be
successful in the two lower counties
his election would be an assured fact.
The reason of the defeat of Higgins
candidates in the convention is easily
seen, when we consider the enormous
wealth of Mr.. Addicks and his reported
Willingness to spend it in the campaign.
The same consideration governed in the
choice of a candidate for governor, and
upon the part of the Republicans this
will be another Doodle campaign, for
which they have become famous, though
our people nave shown them over and
over that they cannot be induced by
such means to give them their allegiance.
IL is fact that cannot be guinsayed
that the candidate of that party for
governor is man who would not have
been thought of had he not possessed a
"barrel," and there is no reason except
that why their choice for Senator should
have fallen upon man utterly unknown
TO the people of the State and not at all
in touch with them.
We shall be greatly disappointed if
the attempt to purchase the people of
our state shall succeed, and the motive
that caused the nomination of Maryil
and the downfall Of the friends of
higgins is SO evident that none can fail
to see it, AS we have said before. this
is no new thing in tue politics of Della.
ware, and the voters have heretofore
shown the party "of great moral ideas"
as its members are fond of calling il.
that there is limit to corruption and
that majority of the voting population
cannot be induced by such means to
give them their sufGrages. II is an insult
to the intelligence and honesty of the
citizens Of our county and State to
attempt to debauch them in any such
way, and they should resent it in the
most emphatic manner possible by cast.
ing such a vote for Tunnel, Bancroft
and the whole ticket as will make the
conspirators against them hide their
beads in shame and flee from the wrath
of an INDIGNANT nennle.

The AMBITION OF ApplCKS.

Another Rich Man who Has Set Out TO
Buy His Way Into the United States
SENATE.
Now York Evening Post
Another rich man has set out to buy
his way into the United States Senate.
j. Edward Addicks, who has made a
great fortune in speculations, largely in
gas stocks, in Boston and other cities
outside of Delaware, concluded that he
would like TO be Senator from Delaware,
and has secured the nomination by the
Republicans of candidates committed to
his support in two-thirds Of the districts.
The seat at which he aims is the one
now occupied by Republican, Anthony
Higgins, who is the first Republican
elected to the Senate from Delaware
since the party was organized,
and whose record entities him to re-
nomination, He would have secured it
without opposition but for the intrusion
of Addicks' money-for Addicks with
out his money would never have been
thought Of as a candidate. Fortunately
there was only slight chance of the
Republicans carrying the Legislature
this year before the appearance of this
rich man as the beneficiary of their
victory, and that chance will be still
further diminished by the odium which
his candidacy must arouse. There is,
consequently, good reason to expect
that the Democrats will carry the Legis-
lature, in which case they may do the
country service by sending Thomas +.
Bayard back to his old place.
This Addicks candidacy will be seized
upon as another argument for election
OF Senators by the people, on the ground
that such a man could not secure his
nomination by State convention. But
1t is by no means uncommon for man
to secure the nomination for governor
solely on account of his wealth, and
there have been cases where the same
millionaire who finally reached the
Senate had previously been nominated
for governor. There is no GER
tainty, therefore that nomination
by State convention would work a
cure of the evil. On the other hand
it would open new opportunities for
combinations, trades, and intrigues il
the candidacy for the Senatorship were
to be settled at the same time and in
the same way as for governor and a
number of other State officers. 1t is not
by any mere device of method that
scandals like the election of Brice of
New York and Ohio, and the nomina.
ton of Addicks of Boston, New York,
Philadelphia and Delaware, are TO be
prevented. Tho people must be made to
realize tine disgrace of such things, and
then they will be stopped.

CREEDON is ALL RIGHT.
No Reason why He should Not Give

No Reason why He should Not Give
Fitzsimmons Hard Fight.
The story now going the rounds Of the
papers about Dan. Creedon's attack OF
muscular rheumatism and how he cured
it in time to train for his contest with
Fitzsimmons, which takes place in New
Orleans on September 26th, has aroused no
little discussion in the sporting circles
Creedon's own We sion of II as told to .
reporter of the 81. Louis Chronicle. in the
presence of his hacker and manager, Col.
John ID. Hopkins was to the effect that he
first took cold by going from the stage In
persplration to q cold dressing room. The
trouble progressed rapidly and when ordi-
nary remedies did not give relief, physi-
clans were called. but they also failed to
hit upon the right treatment BY this
time his muscles were swollen and his
joints SO stiff as to make him utterly uss-
less
1t was now apparent that something out
OF the ordinary must be done or Creedon's
days as pugilist were numbered.
To make matters worse Creedon had
lucrative engagement to help train Jim
Corhett for his fight with Mitchell, which
he would have to give up.
Col. Hopkins at last discharged the
physicians and took the case in his own
hands. He prescribed DR.. Williams Pink
Pills which Creedon took with the best
results as is shown by the fact that short
time afterward he started for Jacksonville,
Fla, to train Corbett. He withstood the
change of climate and has had no return
of the trouble.
That's the rheumatism story in nut
shell and anyone wishing to back Creedon
in the coming contest need give the rheu-
matism no second thought.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills have not only
proved an infalible specific for muscular
rheumatism, hut some of the most noted
pugilists and athletes have found in them
sure method of creating new blood and
new tissue. These pills act directly on the
nerve centres and hold the life forces at
the highest ebb. The kidneys and liver
are, kept in perfectly healthiul condition
and every function properly performed.
All these constitute reserve force upon
which the athlete can draw at all times
with the best results.
