Alva, Okla, August 15-Meager re-
ports from the various townships in
Woods county indicate that Former
Governor Ferguson has carried the
county in the primaries held today
over the two home candidates, Arthur
H. Geissler of Carmon and w. r. Mus
seller of Alva, in the race for the re-
pablican nomination for congress in
the second district Of the new state.
1t appears to be anioverwhelming ma
icrity for Ferguson, although nothing
positive has yet been obtained.
Geissler has been regarded as the
most formidable candidate against
Ferguson since he was backed by the
organization influences. BY winning
out in this county, Ferguson is believ-
ed to have won the nomination unless
he receives setback in his home
county

Constable Was In Pursuit.

Muskogee, August b.-Left alone

a prisoner, charged with assault with
intent to kill, in a bold break for lib
erty. jumped out of the window of a
moving NJ, X. & o. train three miles
east of Broken Arrow Tuesday after
noon, in the presence of twenty-five
or thirty passengers. /,
Officer Mcdonald was taking his
prisoner to the Muskogee Jail and had
him securely handcuffed. He saw Dep
uty Marshal Ledbetter in the smoker
of the train aud intended to get off at
Coweta and ask Iedbetter TO bring the
prisoner to this city. When he got
near the front of the ear the prisoner
dashed out of the open window, while
the train was going perhaps forty
niles an hour.
The train was stopped by the con
ductor and Mcdonald got off. The
last seen of the officer by the passen-
gers was when he was walking swift
ly up the track ia pursuit of his for
mer prisoner. AS Jones was handcuf
fed and perhaps injured by the fall
it is believed Mcdonald had very lit
tie trouble overtaking him.
The train WAS running behind time
