Tail Break.

Thornton and Hendrickson, two prisoners confined at Fairbanks, overpowered the guards Monday and escaped, but were recaptured the next day.
 While P. s. Peterson, one of the guards, was unlocking the cells in the morning, the prisoners threw pepper in his face. blinding him, and then attacked him with case knives, cutting him seriously. Geo. Gallaher ran to his assistance, but was also overpowered and the men made their escape.
 It was thought at first that Pet erson would die but later reports state that he has chance of recov- ering. Gallaher was not fatally in- jured. Both guards were formerly residents of Valdez.
 There was considerable talk of lynching the prisoners but no att tempt was made to do so.
