gales and high head seas. During the remain

northwesterly Winds with heavy seas. After

THE JAIL BREAKER
Handcuiied and Locked Up He
 Was Free In Fourllinutes.

In the presence of some prominent representatives of the press and city officials "Brindamour' the famous jail breaker showed that stone walls to him do not prison make or iron bars a cage. This mysterious man Is appearing at the Jacques this week, and thousands are marveling at his cleverness.
 The exhibition took place in the po- lice station in the north tier of cells. His manager first divested him of his long coat, vest and all his personal ef- fects, plug hat and all.. He was then searched, and very carefully at that, by Constable Walter B. Lannen. Door, man Terrence Lynch then produced two pairs of handcuffs, such as are used on refractory prisoners and snap ped them on the wrist of. each hand. Brindamour then held up his hands so that every one could see the shac- kles and took his place in cell No F. After divesting himself of his upper garments he locked them up in cell No 13. Having placed himself in cell No 12. Doorman Lynch manacled Brindamours right hand to the lower part of the iron door. as far down to the ground as the arm would reach, and did the same with the left hand. The audience was then invited to sec that the manacling was perfect, whereupon at BrindamOur's request everybody left the corridor the lights were turned out, the inner and outer doors to the corridor locked and the man of mystery was alone. All this performance took about five minutes and 1t was 11:18 when the outer door was locked on the man.
 BrndamOur's manager stood at the outer door. Everybody had his watch in his hand and exactly at 11.22. the manager opened the door and called out ''stop work" and then shouted for Doorman Lynch. But before the doorman arrived, one of the specta- tors had opened the outer door and there at the iron door inside, still locked, stood BrindamOur, dressed, ready for the street.
 The iron door being opened by the doorman everybody filed in cell No F, in which Rrindamour was last seen, was still locked and so was cell No 13. In which he had left his clothes. But his clothes were on him. hat and all, and the handcuffs still locked. were hanging from the door of cell No 12. in the position in which they were when they held Brlndamour's wrists. The locking up of the man and his leaving the cell and rcsum- ing his garments occupied just four minutes. There was a blue mark on Brindamour's right wrist after the performance. but none on the left.
