ESCAPE FROM JAIL.

James Mcdonald and William
Leonard, prisoners at the house of
correction at Rutland, broke out of
their cells on Tuesday morning and
assaulted Keeper John Holland, in
an attempt to escape. Mcdonald
got away, but Leonard, while he
had an equal opportunity with the
other prisoner, apparently weakened
and returned to his cell. LARGE
parties of citizens assisted by hounds
searched for the fugitive all day, but
did not succeed in locating him.
Keeper Holland, who was beaten
with an iron bar, has seven ugly
wounds on his head, but it is thought
he will recover. Mcdonald was in
Jail awaiting trial in September on
charge of assault with intent to kill

WINDSOR COUNTY COURT.

Two cases were tried during this
week-one civil and one criminal.
The former occupied but few
hours and did not get any further
than one side. The case was War
rem F. Taylor VS.. Alonzo Hubbard
and was to recover damages for the
taking of four-year.old horse.
ana ne impounded the animal.
When the plaintiff had testified and
closed his opening case, the defend.
ant moved for verdict on the
ground that plaintiff had not shown
himself to be in possession of the
horse when it was taken. The
court ordered a verdict for defendant
and the plaintiff takes the case to
supreme court on exceptions. G..
A. Davis for plaintiff, Stickney &
Sargent for defendant.
The criminal case was State VS..
Fred II. Austin of Rochester. It
was prosecution for adultery and
was connected with the case of State
VS.. M. Ryder tried a few years
ago and acquitted of a charge of
killing the infant child of Cora
Smith, of which it was alleged the
respondent was the father. The
woman was the mistress of one 7.
w. Smith of Keene, who had de-
serted his wife. She gave birth to
child and swore respondent was its
father. The respondent denied the
charge, and relied on alleged con.
trary statements made by the Young
woman as ground for disbeliev,ng
her story.
The case came to sudden close
before it was finished. One Of the
jurymen was sick and unable to 90
on, so the case was continued and
the panel discharged.
There are some more criminal
cases for trial. They will be taken
up July 18th.
