And Made His Escape
 from Prison. Terr
Smooth Scheme of a LeaVen-
 worth Convict.
Desire for Liberty Furnishes Excuse for the Invention of Any
 Method to Escape.

LEAVENWORTH. Aug. 14.-On Sunday morning during chapel service at the Kansas penitentiary, a convict named William Chadburn managed to escape by working a scheme. When the convicts were in the chapel and while the preaching was in progress Cladburn asked permission to go to a closet. It was granted, when he slipped to the tailor shop, where he had been employed and on gaining an entrance to the place soon discarded his striped suit and put on citizens clothing instead.
 He waited and at the conclusion of the service Cladburn tried to pass out of the teamway gate by telling the guard that he was a relative of one of the officials This would not work and he then fell in with the citizens, going out the main entrance way and was allowed to go through without being detected
 He had no trouble in passing the outer guard and he was soon away from Lansing and into a cornfield Chadburn was absent about twenty manutes before it was discovered and no time was lost in starting a number of officers in pursuit. Officials hunted for Chadburn all day Sunday and dur ing the night, but no trace of him could be found
 Chadburn did not go far from Lan- sing during the night and he started going down a railroad track yesterday morning. A section gang that was told to watch for Chadburn stopped him and brought him back to the pris- on. They were given a S100 reward for doing so.
 Chadburn is bad man and was sent up for life for train robbery in 1893. He killed an express messenger in Labette county Chadburn was a daring prisoner and the officials are feeling happy over his recapture.

ANCIENT POTTERY.

Prescott Courier: H. Lemon is in receipt of a letter from Dr. Miller, writ ten from Walpai, Arizona in which the latter says he has succeeded far be- yond his most sanguine epectations, having collected about f150 pieces of old pottery and fifty pieces of new, and could get more if he had made proper preparations to do so. He attended the corn dance July 24 and will re- main and with Mrs Miller attend the snake dance, which takes place be- tween the 18th and 20th Of August, and expects to visit the Grand canyon be- fore returning to Prescott. He says the field is a rich, one for the antiquarian, but hard one to work He is highly satisfied with the result of his trip; has studied the present races there and thinks that in many respects the whites could improve by adopting some of their customs, habits and religion.

GOOD MINES.
Several Paying Properties Near 1 Phoenix.

Messrs. Fleming and Shirley, two mining men of Chapparal gulch, have purchased ten stamps from the Phoe- nix Mining company and will ship the stamps north today.
 Of the 100 stamps at the Phoenix mine but seventy remain and other parties are now negotiating for the purchase of thirty or forty more stamps
 A prominent mining man now in Phoenix said yesterday that the Phoe- nix mine would yet prove one of the best properties in the country. IA mis- take, he said, was made in trying to run 100 stamps when enough ore was not being taken out to keep them run ming. The ore was of a good grade, but there seemed to be a body of it, but no defined lodes. There is every indication that the body is there and when it is found it will be a very rich one The lode could be picked up, he thinks, with an outlay not to exceed $5 ,000 The Phoenix is situated in rich mineral belt and most elaborate reports have been made on the prop erty by the best mining engineers in the country The mine which is now in Litigation, will probably be run ming full blast after the next term of court.
 The Maricopa is another promising property adjacent to the Phoenix mine that will yet be a heavy pro- ducer About 2,000 tons of the ore was run through the mill of the Phoe- nix mine at a good profit. The own CTS, Messrs. McDonaly and Shaw, will endeavor to lease about forty stamps from the Phoenix mine, which on ac- count of being SO close, would be much cheaper than putting in a mill of their own.
 The Gold Hill, about eight miles east of the Phoenix mine in the same district, is another good property.
 The Mormon Girl in the same belt is now successfully working five stamp mill and continues turning out bullion. The Blue Bell and Gila Mon ster are also fine properties and give promise of being very valuable in time.

NANSEN'S TRIP.
The Adventurous Trip of the Daring
 Explorer.

VARDOE, Norway, Aug. 14.-Dr. Nansen left the Tram on March IA, 1895, in S4 degrees of north latitude. He traversed the polar sea to a point S6 degrees, 14 minutes, north latitude, situated north of New Siberia islands. No land was sighted north of 82 de- Josefand, where he passed the win ter, subsisting on bears flesh and whale blubber. Dr. Nansen and his companions are in the best of health.
 WASHINGTON, Aug 1f.-Without questioning the accuracy of reports that come by cable from Norway, an nouncing the return of the Arctic ex plorer, Nansen, safely from his novel and adventurous cruise in the Fran, Commodore Melville, chief engineer of the navy, who was a member of the ill fated Jeannette party which served as pattern for Nansen's attempt upon the north pole, holds that the result of the explorers voyage was not under stood here clearly. proves Nansen's s theory of the polar drift to be ground less. In the opinion of Melville, Nan sen has only closely paEallelled the celebrated voyage of Wyprecht and Payer in the Tegethoff( and has fol- lowed their drift. The Tegethoff rounded the north point of Nova Zem- bla with the intention of traversing the north coast of Siberia. Her com mander got in the ice and drifted north and east while the gulf stream favored in the early fall. Afterwards when the stream lost its force they drifted south and west, bringing up on Wiltz island, one of a small group south ward of Franz Josefand. ...
 During the winter their ship was crushed, and in the following summer they escaped in their boats and were picked up off Cape Nassau, one of the headlands of Nova Zembla. Melville says Nansen's experience was similar. He did not enter the ice on the side of the polar basin from where he was pickedup, so his trip fails utterly to prove that current exists that may be relied upon to carry ship across the polar waters and bring it down on the east side of Greenland.

who admits that despite his Rocky Noun
tain training he overshot the deer twice.
A great deal OF merriment was afforded
the ladies by Bacon, who had never slept
out OF doors in his life, and exhibited great
alarm at the proximity of bat or bug.
One night Haight shot at a tame cat,
thinking it to be skunk, and at the re-
port Bacon kicked a hole in the canvas
tent. On learning what had happened, it
may be stated on the authority of Haight,
the reaction on Bacon's nervous system
was so great that he nearly tainted. Later
on he emphstically insisted that before
any more nocturnal shooting was done he

During the trip many wild pigeons and
several grouse were bagged.

be held at Sheltons Grove, near Marys-
VILE, Sunday, August %. under the aus
pices of the Yuba and Sutter Gun Club
for the Appeal diamond medal. This

Srsnd Hotel, he having won 1t for the
hrst time under the terms in May, 1895.
few days ago Fay was formally noti-
fed of the shooting contest and invited to

the medal to e. Is. Hornung, chairman of

out of it, are working tooth and nail TO
get in the best possible condition, and as
this will be each crews last race the bitter
antagonism that is extant among them as
to which is the better crew will be wiped
out in royal battle of the oars Tor blood.
The Stocktonian crew are smashing
away at the oars night and morning, and
as they are more than anxious to have
crack at the local crew the most exh1iar-
ati1g four-oared race ever rowed Will Dc
feature of the days sport.
Jim Foley, the entry in the junior shell
from the South End Club, is fast reducing
his avoirdupois, and looks to have good
chance to win. He will have strong
backing from his club mem bers, and his
magnificent stroke and gorgeous costume
never fail to catch the ladies' eyes, as he
plies his frail craft along the bridge, with
his AmaZonian chest protruded and head
high in the air. The ladies are often
heard to remark as he passes by, 'Is that
Peterson?"
End junior crew perform claim that their
chances of oefeating the Stocktonian crew
are not of the brightest.
The boys are good rowers, but their in
experience In rowing barge against such
a crack crew as the Stocktonian one will
prove disastrous to them, thereby lessen
ing the South Ends chances of winning
every SfCnI Ou tAS programme
they are out to do.
The club is getting rather anxious over
the completion of their skiffs in time for
the races. Certain material to be used in
their construction had to be ordered from
the East, but as yet has not arrived and
when it does the boat-builder Will put on
an extra force to have them completed by
September g.
It is being rumored about that the Ala
media junior crew is going to disband.
There seems to be some dissension among
its members. This crew and the Stock
tonian crew were looked upon as the win
ners of the junior four-oared race at the
Stockton regatta.
McCausland, the Ariel entry in the
senior s1ngle-scull event of the regatta. is
now rowing in great form. His now she'll
is conceded to be much faster than his old
one, and with it he intends 10 give Du-
plissea the race of his life.
1t has been agreed upon by the mem
bers of the Ariel Club that Jim Wilson
and George Phelan shall both represent
the club in the senior outrigger event, and
that Frank Wilson and J. r. Bockman
shall row in the junior event. They also
have intentions of entering junior crew
in the coming regatta.
