buckets and Weihunt, carefully
watching Tows movements, stealth1lv
stepped out behind him as he passed
out OF the cell and stepped around the
corner until Tow set the buckets back
and went away after carefully locking
the cells.
"eihunt then made his escape to the
mountains and timber, and as he was
an old hunter he knows every gcod
hiding place for many miles around
making his capture very doubtful, es-
peclally as he has friends who Will
supply his needs
Sheriff Joplin at once started a par
ty of deputies out to search in every
direction for the escaped prisoner but
up to the hour Of going to press no
trace had beer secured.
Weihunt was in Jail awaiting trial
for the murder of Mr.. Winch Lambert
last June, he being shot while asleep
in bed early one Sunday morning. He
was living alone at his home six miles
from Mem, and he had been dead sew
eral hours before the murder was dis
covered. Circumstances connected
Weihunt with the CRIME and he was
arrested. At the preliminary exani-
nation, so strong was the evidence
against him that he was held Cor MUIR

Deafness Cannot be Cured

BY local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portions of the ear
There is only one way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies
Deafness is caused By an inhamed con-
milton of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian tube. When this tube gets
inflamed you have a rumbliDg sound
or imperfect hearing, and when 1t is
entirely closed deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be Ia
ken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; line cases out OF ten
are caused by catarrh, which is moth

INTO THE TURNTABLE PIT.
An Unguarded Engine Causes Trouble
at the Roundhouse.

Last Friday evening about s o'clock
passenger engine No. IA, started off
with her own accord while unguarded
aud plunged head first into the turn
table pit in front of the roundhouse.
The engine had just come in from
her run and was standing over the
cinder pit few feet from the turnta-
bic while Fireman Ed Timberlake was
cleaning out the fire box. AS he
stepped off the engine to get another
tool, the engine without the least
warning started up. He sprang to the
cab, threw the reverse lever and open
ed the throttle, but could not stop it
and the engine went over the edge of
the pit to the bottom, distance of
about FIVE feet. The engine, while be-
ing broken up quite good deal, came
out of the wreck in better condition
than was expected.
All who saw the accident think it
was miricle that the engine did not
turn over which would have resulted
seriously for Tim berlake who stayed
with her to the last.
Frank Moon, master mechanic,
worked until 6:30 Saturday morning
in raising the engine and getting her
out on the track. No one expected he
could accomplished the work SO soon
nc h.a did and an engine was sent down
to Horatio, the first turntable, in order
to turn around and back up here again
ready to take the Saturday morning
passenger south. The south bound
freight which left here at 6 o'clock
that morning had to run out back
wards.

FOR FREEDOM OF CUBA.
Terzns on which the Negotiations Are
Being Conducted.

CHICAGO. March 12.-W. E. Curtis,
Washington correspondent of the Record,
says: For the first time the members OF
the Cabinet are beginning to admit that we
are likely to take an active part In the
Cuban struggle, and, while no plan has been
adopted and none will be adopted until the
report of the Maine board of inquiry has
been received. it is no longer denied that
the President is about ready to intervene.
He does not propose forcible intervention,
but he probably will tender his good Off
ces to both the insurgents and the Span
iards, and ask them to permit him to find
some basis of peace. This will be practi-
cally a recognition of the bellgerency of the
insurgents, but the Spanish government
cannot complain on that account, because
it is known to our government that the
autonomist Cabinet has been in negotiation
with the leaders in the field for several
weeks, endeavoring to induce them to sur
render and take part in the elections next
month. when members Of the Cuban Legis
lature are to be chosen.
It is not known here how far these ne
gotiations have gone, nor is there much
confidence in their success, although it is
admitted that in this movement lies the last
hope of Spain. If the insurgent leaders can
SASSNASAA ~,--S>
become candidates, or if by any means they
can be persuaded to accept a share in the
present government, the Spaniards will well
come them back as erring brethren and Of
fer a general amnesty to all who have been
in the field, or have been guilty of political
offenses of any sort.
The terms upon which the negotiations
are being conducted are Follows:
First-The withdrawal from Cuba of the
Spanish army; the disbanding of the volun-
teers, and the organization of new militia,
in which the insurgents viii be recognized
and their officers given honorable COM
mands.
Second-The absolute pardon of all politi-
cal offenders.
Third-Three positions in the Cabinet to
representatives of the insurgent party
Fourth-The division of the Cuban debt
into two portions, Cuba TO assume $780, co.,
GOO and Spain the remainder.
Fifth--The Cuban Cabinet and Legislature
to have absolute control of the finances. of
the island, the collection of revenues, the
disbursement Of public funds and the regu-
lation of taxes and customs tariffs.
Sixth-Cuba to be relieved of all financial
obligations, except $lD0,0e0.6 COO of the debt
Seventh-Cuba to pay S2.00o901 per annum
tribute to the crown.
Eighth-The crown to appoint tho cap
colonial Legislature, have the casting vote
