possession when searched. The had
sawed the bar and paddock bolt almost In

around, he noticed the peculiar actions OF
a coupl eot other prisoners, who appeared
to be almost scared to death. He went to
open the cage door and the paddock fell
into his hand, completely cut in two. The
prisoners have been securely locked up in
separate cells and as soon as Judge Ram
sey passes sentence upon Gillespie they
will be taken to the penitentiary.

potent journalism is the gratuitious
boom OF candidates The publishers
space bears the same relation to his sue

doctors prescriptions do to theirs. Ii is
AS staple an article as the grocers sugar
and coffee. or the dry goodsman's call-
Goes and ginghams. 1t takes money to
buy advice, prescriptions, groceries and
dry goods. 1t should take money to
buy newspaper space; and the publisher
who presists in this gratuitous nonsense
brands himself as a ninny' who is rnfit
IN brains and courage to occupy the
sanctum. One of the reasons WHY the
newspaper profession occupies second
airy place to that Of law. medicine and
theology. is this matter of gratuit0us
service so prodigally rendered every

So far the greatest damage that has
been done at this place by the high

Monday night the penstock containing
the big turbine wheels also let 90 and
fioated down to the same bar where il

it became evident that it was only mat
