Boggs of Bossier, we suppose is
one of these reformers-when 1t
don't touch his own pocket. His
bill that has become a law with refer
ence to witness fees should have
been defeated. This bill provides
that witnesses in preliminary trials,
who have heretofore received Sl.5o
per diem and milage, shall receive
anv remuneration whatever. At the
regular trial the per diem is cu'
down TO 81 and no mileage is allowed
This will be pretty hard on witnesses
living from ten to twenty-five miles

A HOLE in THE WALL
Arthur Arey and James McCarty Pull
For Liberty-A Sunday Eseape-HOt
On The Trail.

Last Sunday about 8 o'clock P. NJ.
Arthur Arey and James McCarty, con-
lined in the Canyon county Jail on a
charge of highway robbery, succeeded
IN etfecting an escape. They were con-
nected with the hold ups reported in
The TRIBUNE couple of weeks ago.
Sheriff Campbell and Jailor Jones
were both in the Sheriff's office in the
Court house wheL the escape was
made. There we're a number of prison
ers in the Jail, but only two seemed to
desire liberty. One of the remaining
prisoner thus relates the method of
escape. He said, it took the escaped
men about three minutes to punch a
hole in the wall. This was done by
picking out brick from the inside, and
then stick of stove wood was used as
battering ram. Only a few shoves
were necessary to make a hole large
enough to permit the men to crawl
through. The first person to notice the
hole in the side of the Jail was B. F.
Hartkopf's little girl. She promptly
notified the officers who ran out to the
jail at once. From all accounts the es-
capped prisoners could not have been
gone more than 10 or Is minutes before
the officers were at the. Jail. They
could scarcely have got out of
sight. They succeeded, however,
in getting under cover and
up TO this writing, Tuesday, are
still at liberty. The officers have secur
ed clews which they believe will enable
them to capture the runaways in few
days. They are hot on their trails now
and may bring them in any hour
Sheriff Campbell has offered a reward
of S25 for the apprehension of each of
the escaped men. Arthur Arey is
about % or 80 years old and feet Z
inches high, weighs 145 pounds, dark
complexion, small dark moustache, tat
too marks on back of left hand, both
wrists and breast. James McCarty is
30 to 80 years old, 5 feet inches high
weighs 175 pounds, dark complexion
small black moustache, speaks with
slight German accent. Sunday night
two strange men were seen at the
trgssle bridge about two and half miles
down the track These were probably
the escaped prisoners.
