JAIL BREAKING CHARGE
AGAINST RODGERS NULL
Justice Court Jury Decides That He Was
Illegally Held in Jail at the
Time He Escaped.

Pat Rodgers was acquitted OF the charge
of jail breaking by the jury in Justice
Dancers court at Meadervile The de-
fense showed TO the satisfaction Of the
six men that Rodgers was not legally held
at the time of the Jail delivery.
Jailer William Dolan was the principal
witness for the prosecution. His testi-
mony tended TO show that Patrick Rodgers
did not assault him, but that he simply
ran out when the bars were opened.
1t was then shown by the defense that
there had been no commitment in the case
Of Rodgers. The record of Department 4
Of the district court showed that Rodgers
was remanded TO jail in default of bail,
but that there had been no regular com.
mitment.
On this evidence it was argued by
counsel for the defendant that Rodgers
was simply a visitor at the Jail, and was
justified in walking out when the oppor-
tunity came.
1t is understood that the charge of
second degree assault which was filed in
the district court some time ago, will not
be prosecuted.

QUESTION ANSWERED.

Yes, August Flower still has the largest
sale of any medicine in the civilized world.
Your mothers and grandmothers never
thought Of using anything else for Ind-
gestion or Biliousness. Doctors were
scarce, and they seldom heard of Appen-
dicitis, Nervous Prostraton or Heart fail
ure, etc. They used August Flower to
clean out the system and stop fer1nenta-
ton of undgested food, regulate the ac-
tion of the liver, stimulate the nervous
and organic action of the system, and that
is all they took when feeling dull and bad
with headaches and other aches. You
only need few doses Of Green's August
Flower, in liquid form, to make you sat
isfed there is nothing serious the matter
with you. You can get this reliable rem

ing can be rented at small cost to the dis
trict and children who attend the lower

In the matter OF transfers the teachers

the classes are so crowded that proper at

have been made
