Jail Delivery at Monticello.

Quite an extensive Jail delivery oc-
Cured here last Thursday night, in
which all five of the prisoners serving
out sentences for various oifenses
made good their escape. They we're
confined in the corridor of the iron
cage, which was thought to be about as
safe as the cells, but it seems as if the
patched place in the floor Through
which some prisoners broke away
several years ago proved defective and
by means of scraps of iron picked up
in some manner they managed to bur
row through and reach the outside
corridor. The matter then of going
through the brick wall was small at
fair, and was probably accomplished
in short time. At any rate, the birds
have flown.-L0ureHce County Press.
