Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
SAN BERNARDINO, Oct. 24.-Four
prisoners in the county Jail under SEN
tence of from thirty days to six months
last night broke Jail and today are
among the missing. They made their
escape by saving a bar from a corridor
window at the rear of the building.
The escapes are Harry Ward, under
sentence from Redlands for six months
for larceny; John Frisch, under sem
tence for beating a board bill here;
Wesley Stewart, under sentence from
Barstow for carrying concealed
weapons and Edward Walker, negro,
under sentence for 120 days for larceny
at Ontario.
Owing to the greatly overcrowded
condition of the Jail a number of the
prisoners have to be given cots in the
corridors until the new addition to the
building can be completed so that they
have much more liberty than they
would otherwise have.
Ward is supposed to be the ring
leader in the gang of escapes. He Is
the man who robbed Mrs. Conklin, the
Redlands bride, of her pocketbook, and
who was later captured by her. While
held in the Redlands Jail awaiting a
hearing he made his escape from there,
but was not prosecuted by District At
torney Sprecher because of the poor
condition of the Redlands Jail. He was
later captured and has been serving
six months sentence in the county jail
The escape was not discovered this
morning until Areakfast hour when the
men checked up four short. An investi-
cation showed the small aperaure in the
window where one bar had been sawed
off and bent to one side. After getting
through the window the rest was easy.
Sheriff Ralphs is watching all avenues
of escape and hopes to capture the men,
though they had several hours the start.
Others could have also escaped had
thew been able to squeeze through the
small opening in the bars.

The history Of the Dresden, Nielsen,
or Saxon porcelain factory (the three
names apply to the same establish
ment) is generally divided into three
periods-(D the kings, 1710-96; (2)
the Marcolini, 1796-1814; (3) the mod
ern. We propose to connne this arti-
Gle to the nrst period only.
The discovery Of porcelain in Ger
many was due to the munihcence of
Augustus H.. king Of Poland, and cleo

young chemist named Botticher to

However, instead Of solving the mys-
