Search of Assistance-Tried to
Pass It OFF as Only

Bob Cole, who is awaiting trial on
charge of murder, and another inmate
of the county jail made an Intellectual
attempt to gain their freedom Sunday
evening at about s o clock. The two
men, who were out of their cells in the
large cage, and Jailer Cantrell decided
to have game of cards to while away
the time. Cole went to his cell to get
the cards, and when he returned carried
behind him, and out Of sight, a Colts
shotgun, which he had gained possession
OF in some manner unknown to the iaier
and which he pulled on Cantrell, order
ing him tO.runlock, the cage. Cantrell
could not see the matter in that light,
and made his exit from the jail as
quickly as possible in search Of assist
ance. Upon his return with help it was
found that Cole had given up the weap-
on, which was not loaded, and tried to
pass the matter off as a joke on the
jailer.
This is the second time Cole has had a
gun in his possession, in the first in
stance the gun being loaded with buck
shot, but which was taken away from
him before he had any chance to use it.
