JAIL DELIVERY H)LED
Conspiracy to Break From Fed
eral Prison at Leavenworth
is Discovered.
Officials Notified by Convict
Who Overheard Prisoners
Making Plans.
Men Who Escaped Recently and
We're Recaptured Are
Ones Concerned.

Leavenworth, Kas., Dec. 30-Warden
| McClaughry, of the federal prison, thru
one of the inmates, learned Saturday of
a plan concocted by five prisoners to
seize one OF the guards and the deputy
warden, and with them as shields to
force their way into the prison armory
| and then escape. The plot was con-
cocted by five of the prisoners who es-
capped in the mutiny in the new prison
site on Nov. and were afterward caps
tured. The ringleader of the plot Is Gill
bert Mullins, who held up and disarmed
Sheriff Cook, of the Topeka police force.
Frank Thompson, negro; Fred Robin
son. Bob Clark and Turner Barnes are
the others.
The plot of Saturday was given away
by convict, who overheard the men
talking about 1t. The recaptured prison.
crs had been put to work in the stone
breaking shed, which Is inside the prison
walls. They We're secured by ball and
chain attached, and have been kept hard
at work. Mullins in some way secured
| file. Another of the convicts had Sc
cured a case knife, which had been
sharpened to a fine point. The plan of
the convicts was to use the file to re-
move the shackles, and then tie them to-
gether so that the guards would not
suspect that they had been cut.
The attempt to escape was to have
been made Saturday afternoon. At that
time four OF the prisoners, as BARRIERS,
come to the sheds to shave the men.
It had been arranged that when the
signal was given the BARRIERS razors
| were to be seized, the shackles torn OH
and the guard seized and oxerpowered.
One OF the men was then to be sent to
| the deputy warden's office and he was
| to be told to come at once to the stone
| shed. AS soon as he arrived there ne
was to be seized, his hands tied, and the
| conyicts were to use him and the guard
| as shields to force their way out OF the
| first gate. They intended to place the
razors at their throats, march them to
| the first iron gate, and here to demand
the gate be opened upon penalty OF
death of the guard and Deputy Warden
Lemon. They then intended to make 9
rush for the armory, where the rlnes are
kept, which is just inside the nrst IRON
gate. AS soon as they had seized the
guns it would have been an easy matter
ia force the outside gate. Their inten-
ton was to XIII any officer who inter-
vened.
When told of the plans OF the convicts'
! the officials Of the prison lost no time IN
searching Mullins and the other four.
They found a file concealed IN Mullins
clothes and the knife was on another
Of the convicts.
II is said that Warden McClaughry
NAV ask the department OF Justice to
| transfer these Ave men to the Kansas
state penitentiary at Lansing, which Is
considered safer place.

Women who have pride in valuable

If Peosta soap is used the clothes need

NEW STEP in MODERN LIFE.
Movement in Germany to centralize
Housekeeping.

Movement in Germany to Centraiize
Housekeeping.
Berlin. Dec. 30-Early in the new
year women prominent in German lit
erary and philanthropic circles will in
augurate a movement for the founda-
ton of a housekeeping union modelled
on the plan in operation in Evanston,
Ill.
The ladies assert that individual
housekeeping is irrational in an age
when the number of women engaged
| in professional and commercial oc-
cupation is rapidly increasing.
It is proposed to institute great GEN.
trail kitchens and laundries, and to
maintain huge stats of janitors and
Ichambermaids, with the intention of
relieving members of the union of the
evaporation and worry of ordinary
housekeeping.
Miss Lilly Braun, of Berlin. the
author of the movement, said:
Capitalization of housekeeping is
| as necessary feature of modern life
as combination, which is now recog-
nized as an indispensable factor In
business life. Women have taken per-
rnanent places as mental and physical
workers, and these new rules demand
a reformation of home duties. We do
| not hope to compel the woman who re-
CARDS housekeeping as calling to for
sake 1t; neither do we seek to revolu-
tionize women from the home atmos-
phere. We mean to enable them to
breathe more Of 1t by Kidding them of
the drudgery Of the cook stove. wash

| When asked what would become OF
the traditional German "hasfrau" in
case OF the success of Housekeeping I'M
ions, Mis- Braun said:
..The German hasfrau' is an imagin-
ary person, in whose real existence
only foreigners believe"
