There was a small Jail deli
very sunday night at the CITY
prison that was easily accom-
piished and that may result in
other arrangements being made
tor the safe keeping ofprisoners.
Ii appears that the keys OF
the prison are kept III the Office
OF the Chief OF Police in a
drawer SO that at any time the
small force Of night police can
get Mt them to incarcerate per-
sonsl who fracture the laws.
Evidently friends :. OF one or
more of the three prisoners,
negroes, were aware OF the loca
ton of the keys and during the
night when the office was un
watched slipped in aud took the
keys cut of the drawer.
Ii was an easy matter then to
open the door OF the prison and
let the prisoners escape, for the
night force of Police is so small
that it is frequently out of sight
of the prison. When the day
police arrived Monday it
was found that the prison door
was unlocked and the three oc-
cupants gone.
