Resolutions.

WHEREAS: The Rev. W. II. Chidley has
submitted his resignation from the pastor
ate OF the First Christian church OF Ran
dolph. Vt, and has refused to withdraw
his resignation, though the society Of the
church has declined to accept the same, IL
is ordered that the following minutes be
placed upon the church records.
RESOLVED, That the church regretfully
accepts said resignation and expresses its
sorrow at the severance OF its relations
with its pastor.
RESOLVED, That while we disclaim any
intention Of pronouncing any eulogy up
on Mr.. Chidley, we feel that 1t is his due
that brief statement be made OF the facts
pertaining to his ministry and official la
bors in the church.
We recognize that during his term OF
service no shadow has obscured the re-
Election of pure and honest life; that his
ministrations to the poor, the sick and az
fiicted have been faithful and untiring
that, as a preacher of the word, he has
spoken with courage and power; that as
an administrator he has been prompt,
systematic and efficient.
We recall the devoted and earnest labor
OF our pastor in the mid-week meeting,
the Senior and Junior Endeavor and IN the
Sunday school.
But Il is Mr.. Chidley's quiet work in the
church and in the community, by word
and example, for the upbuhdlng ana re-
timing OF character, work which no figures
can represent, that itself constitutes the
best tribute to his influence.
We shall miss Mrs. Chidley and the
Misses Chidley in the church and recog'
nize their faithful and efficient assistance
in the different phases OF church work
which they have ever rendered during
| their stay with us.
RESOLVED, That the church congratu.
lates Mr.. Chidley that when the time
comes for him to withdraw from active
connection with the society OF this church
he can carry with him the consciousness
that his work has been that of faithful
servant, and the assurance that the respect
and affection of his people will follow him

BROKE BLACKSHEAR'S JAIL.
Five Prisoners Fool the Sheriff and
Cut Their Way Out.

Blackshear, Ga, July 25.-The citi-
zens of Pierce county. who have prided
themselves upon the security of their
Jail, awoke this morning to find their
confidence had been sadly misplaced.
During the night the five prisoners
confined in the Jail had effected an
exit and quietly disappeared as from
the face of the earth. There were
four negroes, charged with highway
robbery, and one white man. charged
with car breaking, as follows; Sheperd
Rosie. Pikey, Robertson, Joe Robertson
and Kid Shine, colored; and Allen
Britt, white.
Yesterday Sheriff Carter. who is also
jailer, allowed the prisoners to come
out of their cells in order that the
cells might be thoroughly cleaned.
When he returned in the afternoon to
lock them in, the floors of two cells,
in which the negroes had hitherto been
confined were covered with water.
The prisoners claimed that they had
not. had sufficient cleansing material
to finish the job, and asked that all
of them might be confined in one cell
over night. The sheriff didn't suspect
anything wrong and readily assented
to this arrangement, which now proves
to have been the practical completion
to the plot to escape.
There is a small door in the bottom
of the steel cages, which is locked with
a paddock from the outside. The staple
of the cage, in which Britt was con-
fined. had been sawed in two, so that
he had little difficulty in getting out
of the cage and into the cell room,
after which it was easy sailing. The
paddock of the cell in. which the ne
groes were confined for the night was
sawed off, and the escape from the
iail effected through window opening
into the cell. There can be no doubt
that the prisoners had worked several
days, and had succeeded in hiding their
work from the sheriff. There is little
probability that any of them will ever
be caught. The negroes are probably
from Savannah. having been arrested
on an excursion train from that point
several weeks ago.
