A Bold and Daring Attempt at jail De-
livery at Kalamazoo was Discovered
by Omcisls In the Nick OF Time
Warden Morse's Report for September
Daring Attempt at JAIN Delivery.

A most daring attempt at Jail deliv-
ery.wa discovered at Kalamazoo on
the I'd. The prisoners in the cage had
literally torn it to pieces and were
awaiting chance for suitable OPP
portunity to escape. By means of
wrenches and saws the big iron bar
that releases the door to the cell and
other bars had been loosened and fas-
tened up with wires. The large steel
hinge three inches wide, had been
pried and broken by use of one of the
big steel bars previously loosened. The
prisoners had the cage so well wrecked
that when the suitable time arrived
they could, by loosening few small
wires, open the cage and walk out.
Then they would have very quickly
made their escape from the interior Of
the Jail by means of the iron bars. The
men in the cage were Larry Spellman,
awaiting trial for the Richland bank
robbery; Holsinger, sentenced last
week to Jackson for burglary; John
Thompson, alleged horse thief, and
Frank Webb, charged with trying to
get books containing saws and files to
Slater and Allison, Richland bank
robbers.

Had Acted Before Request was Received

President Mckinley, through Secre-
tary Porter, has replied to the recent
communication, inclosing resolutions
passed by the Holy Name society OF

the subject referred to, is now under

quiry into such matters, and had de
rected the United States authorities in
the Philippine Islands, that special re-
spect be paid to all church property"

Game Warden's Report for September.
Game Warden Morse reports that
the work of his department last month
was confined to general enforcement
of the game and fish laws, including a
second inspection of the commercial
fisheries. With very few exceptions
the commercial fisheries were found to
be closely conforming to the law, both
as regards the size of the mesh and
the retention of immature fish, the de-
crease in the number and extent of the
seizures proving this. The total num-
Der of cases investigated during the
month was los. There were 90 prose-
cutions commenced. These resulted in
81 convictions, two acquittals, three
dismissals, while 80 cases are pending.
The total amount of fines and costs inn
posed was S7S3 O5, and the value of the
fish and nets seized $39O.2s. Forty
seven of the cases for violation of the
game laws and 81 for violations of the
fish laws

The sword grip is covered with fine
shark-skin, bound with gold wire and
tnlaid with gold stars. The guard is
an eagle terminating in a claw, which
grasps the top in which the blade is
set; the eagles outstretched wings
form the guard proper.
The scabbard is of thin steel, damas-
cened in gold, with sprays of delicate
sea plant. the ross marinus, typical of
fidelity, constancy and remembrance.
These sprays are interlaced; stars fill
the inner spaces, dolphins the outer
spaces. Sprays of oak leaves and
acorns secure the rings and trappings
Of the scabbard; above these on the
front of the scabbard is raised mono
gram in diamonds, entwining the let
tiers &c. d." and Immediately under
them are letters "U. s. NJ" surrounded
by sprays of the tea-plant.
The ferrule, or lower end of the scab-
bard, terminates in entwined gold dol
phins.
The sword box is of white oak, inlaid
with black velvet, and at the center of
the cover has a gold shield surmounted
by an eagle, and inscribed with a sin
gle star and the words: "Rear-Ad-
miral George Dewey, U S. N"

OLD-FAsHIONED WOMEN,

Have very natural prejudice against any
thing that offends their fine sense of deli

delicate organs of sex. Any suffering to
them was better than the shame of ques-

At the capitol the ceremonies were
singularly impressive. The presenta-
ton speech was made by Secretary
Long, who paid a glowing tribute to
the man who today fills the hearts and
minds of his countrymen.
The sword, except its steel blade. and
the body metal Of its scabbard, is en-
tirely of twenty-five karat gold. On
the pommel is carved the name of the
battleship Olympia and the zodiacal
sign for December, in which lucky
month Dewey was born. Circling these
is a closely woven wreath of oak
leaves, long employed to indicate and
adorn rank Below these the pommel
is embraced by a gold collar, on the
front of which are the arms of the
United States, with the blue field Of the
shield in enamel. Below them are the
arms of Vermont, Dewey's native state,
with the motto, Freedom and Unity"
and the colors Of the shield in enamel.
The plain part Of the gold collar is
decorated with stars, and a graceful
finish is given to 1t by narrow band

New York, Oct A dispatch to

learned on reliable authority that
Capt. Ben Parker, commander of EN-
peror Williams yacht Meteor, is now
in New York incognito. He sailed
from here on the liner New York on
her last trip, travelling under an as
sumed name, and landed last Satur-
day. His presence was carefully con-
cealed from the other passengers. Just
what his purpose is can not be stated,
but the surmise is that he will advise
with the captains of Shamrock and

The charred remains of man were

the house of Charles Felt, which
burned recently. Near the skull lay a
clay pipe, and kerosene can was close
by. Without doubt the body is that
of tramp who broke in the house
while the family was away from home
