Two Burglars Escape.

The two burglars, Scott and Becker
confined in the county Jail pending
their trial made good their escape last
Thursday evening at about 9 O'Clock
The two men were IN the corridor of
their cells, when Jailor Stevenson alb
sented himself from the building for a
few moments. By the aid of crooked
wire which they had secured by some
means, they succeeded in pushing out
the paddock which locks the corridor
door and by some means showed the
bar back and got into the ,rds. From
the yard they scaled the high stockade

Says He Lost His Home.

H. A. Fieser, the man whom Governor
Rogers advertised few days ago as a dan
gerous crank, is in Tacoma says the Led
ger. He does not deny his threats against
the Northern Pacific, but rather justifes
them
Mr. Fieser tells connected story, but
one that is apparently highly incredible
He says the railroad company elected him
from his Mason county farm in 1891. after
he had lived four years on the place.
Since then, he says, he has appealed to
three different county attorneys of Mason
county, the states attorney general and
assistant, two governors, one legislature,
the secretary and assistant secretary of the
interior, the attorney general of the United
States, committees in both houses of Con-
gress, the state legislature on two occasions
and has also seen railroad officials AL
save Paul Schultze, he claims. turned
a deaf ear to him. Schultze, he declares
told him that the railroad never owned the
land, and this, Fieser says, was confirmed
at Washington, d. c.
According to his letter to the governor
unless the Northern Pacific settles with
him by May it will be dangerous to ride
on trains of that road after that date.
Fieser repeated the threat last night

LAYMEN WIN THEIR FIGHT.
Methodist General Conference Comedies
Equal Representation.

Chicago, May BY a unanimous
vote to-day the delegates to the
Methodist general conference decided
to give equal lay representation in
all Methodist conferences. The an
nOuncement of the vote was greeted
with cheers, as it was a victory which
had been fought for 100 years.
A fight was expected over the mat
ter, but 1t did not materialize The
matter was introduced by the Rev. j j..
NJ. Buckley of the Central New York
conference. He moved the adoption
of the rules of the last general con-
ference, with the exception of | and
Is. This was carried almost unani-
mously, and DR.. Buckley asked the
vote on the Rock River conference
proposition for lay representation in
all Methodist conferences, annual and
general. The proposition was read
and the unanimous approval fol-
lowed. The book of discipline in ref
erence to representation was changed
to read thus:
1.-The lay delegates shall consist of
one layman for each annual confer
ences as have more than one minis
terial delegate, which conferences
shall each be entitled to as many de-
legates as ministerial delegates. The
general conference shall not allow of
more than one lay representative for
every fourteen members of an annual
conference; nor of q less number than
one for every forty-fve; nor of more
lay delegates from any annual CON
terence; provided, that when there |
shall be an annual conference a frac-
tlonal of two-thirds the number
which shall be fixed for the ratio of
such annual confer
'hce shall be entitled to an additional
delegate for such fraction: and pro-
Tided also, that no conference shall
'e denied the privilege of one minis
erial and one lay delegate.
The provisional delegates by a
unanimous vote were ad-
nitted to seats in the conference.
There were some doubts as to the ,
OF this matter early, but the ;
'ote over the equal representation
cleared these away and
he overwhelming victory was not a
