saltwater, Mimi, March IA nris.
;" guard whose name Warden wolfer
uoeS NOT wish to divulge at present. Il.
iocAeu UP in the county iail here on
the charge Of aiding Edward Leland.
d notorious convict at the prison serv-
ing d ten-year term for robbery COM
hlitted IN Minneapolis, in attempting
10 escape. There are two others i'm
plicated in the affair, one being a wo-
man. A clever scheme was conCocted
"hich Warden Wolfer succeeded in
nipplng In the bud. According to re-
ports the guard, together with a
FORMER guard and Leland's paramour,
mad been planning the escape of Lee
iand for some time. The guard ar
rested is said to have received nearly
s3O0 to secure Leland's freedom. and
II was TO be done early in the morning.
When Leland came from his cell to
enter upon his duties in the dining
room the guard was to give him a
Key which had been made in st. Paul
TO ft the cellroom door leading to the
yard n Leland was to escape ovei
h wall by means of a rope ladder.
where his paramour would be in wait
ing with a team to convey him safely
away from the prison, and
Aid Him in Getting Out
or the country. Leland has been a
clerk in the prison Irvine factory. and
notes are said to have been passed by
n guard both to and from him. War
den Wolfer says a search was made of
his desk, but nothing was found ex-
cepttng bits of torn paper in the
waste basket, which were pasted to-
gether and are said to reveal all the
plans. Warden Wolfer first became
suspicious one day last week when
Leland's paramour came here and was
met after leaving the prison by the
guard who, 1t is said, had spent much
time in the woman's company since
early in December. Last Thursday
the guard had a bogus telegram de-
livered to him at the prison, stating
that his sister was dying. He left for
st. Paul, where he was kept under
close surveillance by officers and was
arrested yesterday on q st. Paul and
Minneapolis interurban a by Cell
room Keeper Glennon, who had been
sent after him by Warden wolfer.
The guard was brought to this city
and placed in Jail. Warden Wolfer
says there are various reasons why
names should not be divulged at pres
ent. Some OF the parties implicated
are presumably not under arrest.

S~UPERPOSED LAYERS.
sword of a Thousand Pieces Made bv
japanese.

What do you think Of a cword blade
that contains a thousand sheets OF
metal? Yet they are not uncommon.
n as you will readily imagine. are
OF Oriental workmanship. Our Mains
taking, patient japanese friends are
the makers OF them. The blades OF
these sabers are made from
ores. The steel is produced in
small. very thin sheets, and the work
man begins by fixing one OF them TO
the end of AN iron rod, which serves
as a handle. To this are soIdered
other small sheets, until the mass has
a length OF about eight inches. a
width OF about two inches and a thick
ness OF a little more than a quarter
OF an inch. This bar is brought to a
white heat, doubled on itself, and ham
mered until it is down to it's original
dimensions. This process is repeated
nfteen times. Four similar bars are
then soldered together, doubled upon
themselves, resoldered and heated. the
operation being repeated five times.
This process makes the superposed
layers so thin that a saber contains
at least a thousand sheets of metal.
II you find one OF these swords that
has a veined appearance you may
know IL Is caused by alternate LAYERS
OF iron and steel being soldered to-
gether.
