WERE READY TO ESCAPE.


LEAVENWORTH. Kan, Oct. 1s.-The Of
ficers of the federal penitentiary have dis
covered that Gilbert Mullins and Bob Clark.
two OF the five convicted mutineers, had
filed of their shackles and were making
preparations to escape during the progress
of their trial. The convicts had filed the
chain shackle off and tied IL with a string
where II was fastened above the ankle. A
file was found in the cell OF one OF the
prisoners, and II Is believed 1t was slipped
to them In the courtroom. which was
crowded. During the progress OF the trial
a man who is believed TO have been Clark's
brother was seen signaling to one of the
prisoners. Nothing was thought OF the
matter until che mems cells were searched
later. In the meantime the stranger, who
Is believed to have been concerned In the
plot, disappeared.
The five men are TO be tried for the kill
ing OF Guard Waldrupe during the outbreak
at the federal prison at Fort Leavenworth
last November. when tw~enty-seven c~onvfcts
escaped. To-day ten others were indicted.

Hicks, Forecasts for January.

Reactionary storm disturbances, in the form
of rain, sleet and snow, will be in transit from
west to east at the opening of January. A
rapid rise of the barometer, high norhwesterly
winds, snow drifts and cold wave may be
looked for about the 1st to the 3rd.
The regular storm period beginning on the
4th, is central on the 9th, extending to the
9th. About the 4th, the barometer will fall
decidedly, it will grow much warmer, begin
ming in the west, and during the 4th to about
the 9Th, heavy winter storms of rain, snow and
sleet will pass in regular order from western
to eastern parts of our continent. Very gen.
eral and damaging sleet storms will be
marked characteristic of these storms, followed
from the west and north by driving, blizzard
Gus snow, rising barometer and very cold.
Look for severe and general cold over most
parts of the country from about the 7th to
18th, progressively, of course, not with the
that time. Watch for the wave to hit your
section some time between the 18th and 18th,
aud do not be disappointed if the north pole
is not dumped into your yard every day from
the 18th to 18th.
On and touching the 18th and 13th the
prevailing cold will moderate, winds will shift
to southerly, the barometer will fall, bringing
on marked change. or reaction to more rain,
snow, sleet and storminess. Moon is in peri
gee on the 18th and full on the 18th, facts
which always tend to aggravate storm condi-
tions that may prevail at the same time. Look
for another sharp and decided cold wave i'm
mediately on the heels of storms central on
the 18th and 18th.
The next regular storm period is central on
the 18th, reaching from the 10Th to the 10th.
Moon is on the celestial equator on the 18th,
hence general change to warmer will set In
about that date, With falling barometer and
marked return of general storm conditions:
Eros. abous SATURDAY. the 18th, to Iss;esday the
ooh, the storms Of this period will reach their
eliminating crisis in all central to eastern
parts of the country. The Moon passes south
of the celestial equator on the 18th, hence
high temperature for the season will be natural
on aud about that date, with winter lightning
and thunder very probable southwark. But
tropical features will soon disappear, and gen.
uine winter storms, turning 10 billiards in
many sections, will quickly follow. Be on the
watch for storms of such severity as will cause
great Inconvenience and suffering to man and
beast.
About the 22nd to oath, look for some
moderation of the prevailing cold, with falling
barometer, growing cloudiness and return of
rain and snow in wide sections.
The last storm period for the month extends
from the 9th to the 31st, being central on the
goth. New Moon falls on the 18th, a fact that
will hasten the change back to very marked
storm conditions.
There are good reasons to apprehend that
hard and general winter storms will occur on
sea and land during the last four days of jan
nary
