Guards Look for Rife RANGE.
The Dodge Light guards are still look
ing for suitable site for a rife range
within easy distance Of the city. They
have the offer Of a field near Crescent, and
the officers Of the company will lock it
over Sunday. The site at Crescent, how
ever, is considered too distant, but will
be used until a better one is secured. The
boys have to get into field practice soon,
as the date for the state meet at Cedar
Rapids is drawing nigh. A team Of five
men will he sent to participate in the state
range meet.
Captain Greene of the company is in re-
ceipt Of a letter from Adjutant General
Thrift advising him Of the sale of the old
camp ground where the National guard has
met for the last three years and the subse-
uuent purchase Of a tract Of 500 acres north
Of Des Moines. General Thrift states that
the price obtained for the old l60 acres
was sufficient to purchase the new tract,
and he feels that the guard will be greatly
benefited by having at its disposal during
the annual encampment such wide area
of land on which to carry out the man
euvers.
II is the intention TO establish n rife
range on the SO0-acre tract, although that

JAIL BREAK is FRUSTRATED
Prisonsr in County Jail Detected in Scheme
Before They Could Execute 1t,
WRENCH TWO PIPES OUT OF RADIATOR
Had Them Concealed and Refused to
Tell where Until Put a Diet
of Bread and Water, when
They weakened.

Suspecting that the prisoners in the main
corridor at the county bastile were planning
some mischief Jailer f. NJ. Gallup made
thorough search of the place yesterday
afternoon and discovered that two pipes
had been wrenched out Of the radiator and
were missing. All Of the men confined in
the corridor disclaimed any knowledge Of
the missing pipes and a search by the
TALLER failed to locate them.
When supper time came, instead OF the
regular meal, the prisoners in the corridor
were served with bread and water. They
wanted to know the reason for the change
in the menu and Jailer Gallup informed
them that bread and water would be their
fare until they disclosed the place where
the two pipes from the steam radiator had
been hidden. The threat worked and It
was not long unit, the pipes were forth
coming. They had been hidden under the
big cylinder How the men succeeded in
wreuching the pipes from the radiator is
mystery to Mr. Gallup.
Jailer Gallup is of the opinion that GER
tain of the prisoners planned using the
heavy iron pipes as clubs with which to
attack him, could they have caught him
OF his guard, and then to take the keys
from him and make a dash for liberty
This is the second time within a year that
the prisoners have succeeded in tearing
out some of the pipes Of the steam radiator
Jailer Gallup will recommend to the Board
Of Supervisors that the heating plant in
the Jail be rearrauged so that the radiators
are outside the main corridor and out Of
reach Of the prisoners
William Rolph, who attempted to make
a getaway from Deputy Sheriff Groneweg
a few days ago, is one Of the prisoners
confined in the main corridor He is said
TO have stated that he would never be
taken to the penitentiary and Jailer Gallup
suspects that Rolph planned a jail break
and is responsible for the removal Of the
pipes from the radiator. Judge Wheeler
is to pass upon Rolphs motion for a new
| trial this morning and in the event Of il
being overruled, he is TO be sentenced to-
day. Roy Green, convicted of the theft Of
an overcoat from the store of the John
Beno company, is also to be sentenced to-
day in the event of the court overrulng the
| motion for a new trial

built him a house on the River road,

The Feminine Inquiry.

When l was in Howard Chandler
Christy's Illustrating class at the
Cooper institute" said a young gro
Ger, Mr. Christy told us that it paid
to make ultra fashionable pictures,
though sometimes such work had its
disadvantages.
He said that in the days before he
had arrived he had some things once
in New York eXhibition-some re-
iected magazine offerings that he
hoped to get few dollars for.
They were fashion pictures, the
same kind he does now, and one day,
as he was longing near them, he
saw a well-dres9ed woman stop and
leveled her lorgnette. Then to his de-
light, she said:
All if l only knew this artist per-
sonallyn

Permit me, madam he said, to
introduce myself as the artist

claimed. Now you'll tell me, won't

made that tall girls frock?'"
