A MI.tAken Theory.

A remarkable fact in connection with
the capture of the condemned murderer
Volers, who escaped from the Fayette
county pail three days before the date
set for his hanging, ls that the capture
was made in the capital city Of the state
where reward had been offered for
him.
That a man under sentence Of death
should have sought refuge in the very
shadow of the capital was carrying out
an old theory held by criminals that the
closer they hide to the seat of justice the
less likely win they be found, as they
reason that officers Of the law are less
likely to look for them there, but are
more apt to search out-of-the-way
places. Volers however, found that the
theory didn't work and will lose his life
for the trouble he took to test 1t.
