Round 2.-They went to a clinch.
Munroe received a left swing to the
mouth that made him spit blood. He
bored in but Jeff was unrelenting,
smashing him all over the body with
left and right and floored the miner
again. Blood flowed from Munroe's
face and ears, Then terrific left to

He sank to the floor and attempted to
rise. Jeffries was waiting for him, but
before the champion could land OH his
helpless victim Referee Graney grabbed
him and declared Jeffries the winner.

was horrible sight that met the gaze
Of Miss Emma Briggs and her sister
when they looked through the window

oners engaged III tearing out the wall.
The men were ordered into their cells
and confined behind iron doors where
they have since been kept and will re-
main until the new jail is completed.
Al close examination of the wall by
the sheriff and his deputies disclosed
the fact that bricks from the inside OF
the wall had been removed, making a
hole sufficiently large for the body Of a
good sized man to pass through. The
prisoners when detected had just COM
menced to remove the outside layer of
bricks, and in FIVE minutes more would
have made good their escape. None of
the prisoners are inclined to peach
and the sheriff is of the opinion that
all were implicated in the effort to-
escape.
