A Close Call,

John Dougherly, who Was serving lte
sentence In New Castle jail for murder,
made successful ia, h for liberty and ut
the Same time Thomas Mitchell who Is
serving asentsnce for burglary, who made
. Similar attempt. was unsuccessful and
but for the timely aid Of Jerry Harrlgau,
who has one arm, Chief Warden Gould
might possibly have boon an angel TWAS
tho closest cali Warden Gould ever had, as
the powder smoke from the exploded re-
volyer blaekened his face. Such thshg
would never have happened II the prison.
srs had been confined In u peuitentiary
Instead OF the New Castle pom called, by
courtssy of Dclawareans, a Jail. The only
wonder is that more prisoners have not
broken ont OF jail, The Legislature in
stead of spending the peoples money in
other useless ways. should pass bill to
erect sufficient buildings 80 that tho prls-
onsxs could DO confined in separate cells
and not have the liberties they new enjoy
while serving out the sentences imposed
BY the Court for their misdeeds The pris-
oners have the freedom Of the corridors and
nothing could prevent the prisoners from
, making break for liberty any time they
NV IT. There are only two keepers Oh duty
at any one time and only one when the
men made their dash for liberty. Jerry
Harrigan has certainly earned recon.
snendation to the Board Of Pardons for his
pardon. which he has been seeking for sew
eral years, by his prompt and heroic action
on Saturday afternoon, in preventing the
sb0oting Of Warden Gould. The prison.
ers should be made to work instead of be-
Ing kept In enforced idleness. AS both
prisoners had revolvers when they made
tieir dash for liberty, 1T shows that it is
not difficult to provide them with any
thing they need in the way of arms :and
the necessary tools to break jail.
