PLAN FRUSTRATED.
Sheriff Thinks He Prevented an At
tempt to Liberate Teggmen'

LGWpl 10 LlBGIdNC tNSSi'Sh
Portsmouth, N. HIT is believed
that the discovery OF two men in the
county Jail yard Wednesday night by
Sheriff Coils prevented an attempt TO
liberate Joseph Gouin and the un-
known yeggman who are confined In
the Jail charged with the murder OF
Giuseppe Giampa on the train at
Rockingham Junction, Feb. 10, or at
least put an end to an inspection OF
the building preliminary to such an
attempt at rescue,
Shortly before 10 o'clock, as Sheriff
Coils was returning to the jail from
the Warwick club, lie saw two men in
the yard on the side where Gouin and
the unknown are confined
One of the men was cruching be-
side the building, and started to run.
Sheriff Coils ordered him to stop, and
then fred three shots after him. The
man succeeded In scaling the fence
on the Penhallow street side, and ran
down Sheafe street 10 the ""'e'
front
In the meantime his companion ran
toward the State street side OF the
fence, and being encumbered by a
heavy overcoat he threw 1t away IN
side the fence, where 1t was found by
Officers Shannon and Anderson.
This man, after getting over the
fence, ran down to Water street, pass
ing b. Frank Russell and several 9TH
ers, who are confident they can iden'
tify him.
The police started after the men
and made a search of all the places
on Water street, where it was though'
they might have sought refuge, Du'
we're unable to find any traces o.
them. A search is being made OF al
the lodging houses, and a Watch 1t
being kent at the B. & NJ. r. X. sta
ton
Sheriff Coils said that he though
the two men were looking the grount
over and getting the lay OF the lah'
for others to come and try TO eHec
the escape of the two yeggmen'
He said that the men were secure
ly locked in the Jail, and that he di'
not believe their rescue could be ell
fected unless dynamite was used
Both Gouin and the unknown, sine
they have been confined in the jail
have maintained an air OF indinel
ence, and the latter has passed cor
siderable of the time singing.
Should either of the men e'o~r
.u-,ne county official
/ would Vtoid be greatly handicapped in re
capturing them, as the pictures take
of both men are very poor, and II
Bertillon measurements have bee
taken of either of the men.

The EnnIish Girl.

The last decade, says the Bombay
Times of India, has witnessed no more
striking development in England than
that of the young English girl who,
thanks to her broader education and
indulgence in outdoor sports and
games, is now become a veritable
Diana. While still barely in her
teens, she towers above her mother,
and in passing along London streets
one is again impressed by the num-
ber of tall, vigorous girls who in point
of physique put their male contempt,
raries into the shade.

INFINITESMAL MAN

A man is but a cluster on the great
human grapevine. He begins to dry
up the moment he is cut off from his
fellows. There is something in the
solidity of the human race which
can't be accounted Tor in the sum
total of individuals.
Separation from the mass involves
mighty loss of power in the indi-
vidual, just as there is a loss of CO
hesion and adhesion involved in sep
aration to the molecules and atoms
of the diamond. The value of the
gem is in the close contact, the COM
pactless and the concentration of
the particles that compose it. The
moment they are separated the value
is gone. So a strong, effective man
gets a large part Of his strength from
the vital connection with his fellows.
