Grinnell, June 21-Mrs Sarah Hayes,
who has lived about ten miles northeast
of Grirnell for years escaped from
Sheriff Binnegar at Burlington while on
the way to the hospital for the insane
at Mt Pleasant and Is still at large.
She made daring escape from the
second story window of the Western ho-
bedding. The Sheriff had engaged two
rooms. The insane woman was locked
in one while Binnegar and his wife oc-
cupied the other. Her escape was dis
covered by the night watch at the ho-
tel at :45 in the morning. He noticed
the rope leading from the window and
awoke the sheriff to find that his bird
had flown. The sheriff spent yesterday
searching the city and surrounding
country for her without success.
Mrs. Hayes was we'll known here and
in the vicinity of Chester Center and
has been thought mentally weak for a
long time She was, at one time worth
$4,000 which has mostly been dissi-
. pated by bad investments and trades

We're not complied with. II was thought
best to send her tothe asylum for treat
ment and she was on her way there in

Will authorize the establishment of

1t will be about half way between
