Broke Out of Jail and Escaped.

Five colored prisoners, confined In
Jail at Accomac G. H., broke out Mon
day night and escaped. Another
prisoner, Thomas Smith, a young
white man charged with the murder
of his brother-in-law In a family

Smith, the cells in which four OF them

the five at night, which key, 1t is
stated, he obtained from the wife OF
Ben Ames during visit to him. Out
of their cells they succeeded In about
fire hours In burning the sheathing
of the wall with a poker, and 10
breaking the iron bars with which
| it was overlaid. This being done
the prisoners soon picked hole In
the wall, let themselves down win
blankets tied together to the ground
and quickly scaled the outside walls
The names of the prisoners who
escaped and the crimes for when
they were held are as follows:
Ben Ames, alias Ben Jubilee, for
brutally assaultipg with club Mr
Gusts burlington, merchant OF
Fair Oaks, while he was off his guard

There is more Catarrh in this
section of the country than all 9TH
er diseases put together, and until
the last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced it q local disease
and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it incur
able. Science has proven catarrh to
be a constitutional disease and there
fore requires CONSTITUTIONAL sr~eL
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufac-
tured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo,
O., is the only constitutional cure on
the market. 1t is taken internally in
doeses from 10 drops to teaspoonful
1t acts directly on the blood and mu-
cous surfaces of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case
it fails to cure. Send for circulars

Proves to Be Skilled Politician and

such a woman about the headquarters

She Is one of the half score of

grasp of the situations, she has be-

OF "affairs politique.''
Miss Fanny Butler of Winchester
is her name. Before coming to Indi-
annapolis she had never thought much
about politics, but when she became
involved in the busy moil of cam
palgn fight, she immediately shared
the fascination that comes with it.
Her services at headquarters have
become almost imperative. She knows
good part of these state secrets, be-
cause she has contributed some sug-
gestions to shaping them, and as
letters are dictated to her, she is ask
ed about the correctness of certain
plans. In short, she has become a
manager in herself, for she, has
charge Of all the stenographic work
and oversees things in general.

"No, I wouldn't start any contro-
