MAKE GOOD THEIR ESCAPE.
Two cOnvicts Who Fled From State
Prison at Windsor.

Claremont, N. H., Nov. Sit is now
thought that Armour and German, who
escaped from the Windsor, VT, state
prison, have made good their escape, for
there has not been the least trace of
them obtained, not even report from
outlying districts Sheriff Spaford Of
White River Junction expressed himself
as believing that the conyicts had made
across country in the vicinity Of Ascut-
ney mountain.
There are several gangs of workmen
IN that district, and along the Black
river there are several gangs of Italians
working, and it is possible that they
might have obtained rood and clothing
among them. The interest is dying out
here and things are settling down to
normal conditions and the routine Of
country life.

Round

Philadelphia, Pa, Nov 81 Young
Erne and Eddie Chambers last night put
up the best six-round bout Of the season
here. Chambers was l5 pounds heavier
than Erne, and depended entirely upon
wild swings and fierce ribroasters with
his right, while Erne used his cleyernesss
speed and headwork to splendid effect
Erne had the better Of the first two
rounds, but in the yhird round Cham
bers got Erne on the ropes. Erne block
ed half a dozen wild swings and was
taen sent to the floor with right and left
swings to the jaw.
1t looked bad for Erne, but after this
he outfought Chambers both at long and
short range and in the fifth and sixth
rounds had Eddie holding on to avoid
punishment.
1t was Erne's bout, but both men
were considerably damaged at the finish.
only Erne's splendid physical condition
saved him in the third round.

Obituary.

Wallace A. Smith, after lingering
illness, died of Brights disease in Our
Lady of Lourdes hospital at Hot Springs,
Monday, the 2nd day of December, 1907.
Mr.. Smith was born in Newport,
Maine. November 10Th, 1868, and when
about nine years of age, with his par
ents came to the Black Hills and located
in Custer where he grew up to man
hood, and where he has since resided.
In the public schools of this city he re-
ceived his education. Here in June,
1898, he brought his young bride, nee
Lohand, and established his home, and
here for a number of years he has been
closely identified with the best interests
of the Town and County, the latter
he has served faithfully as Dep.
uty Register of Deeds, Deputy Treasurer,
Auditor and Clerk of Courts. In all of
these positions be acquitted himself
with satisfaction to his constituency and
honor to himself He was ever courl-
eous, atfable and gentlemanly, this won
for him the appreciation of all who
knew him. A little less than a month
ago, realizing it was impossible to con-
tinue his work longer, and hoping the
change would improve his impaired
health, he was taken to Hot Springs
where he was attended by his loving
wife, trained nurses and physicians, all
that could be done, was done for him,
but alas, death the inevitable end of all
that is human, must come to all, and to
him, not strongly constituted, it came at
an early age.
His remains were brought to Custer,
where it was his desire to be laid to rest
by the side of loved ones who preceded
him. Interment was on Wednesday
last from the Congregational Church
where his many friends gathered to pay
their last tribute of respect and bid him
last farewell. Rev. Katherine W..
Powell oficiated, and in impressive and
well chosen words, showed the beauti-
fu application of the Parable of the
Talents to his life, "Wel done thou good
and faithful servant, thou hast been
faithful over few things, / will make
thee ruler over many things; Enter
thou into the JOY of thy Lord"
The deceased was never man Of
strong constitution, but without COM
plant or murmuring, he bore the bur
dens of his lie and by stedfast and faith
ful performances of his offices and
through his forethought for his loved
ones, he was enabled to make provision
for them when he should be called
away. The people of this county will
miss Wallace at the court house, whers
for SO long he has been a familiar figure.
As man among men, he was an exem-
plary character, honest, kind, thought
full and Industrious; in his home, fond
father and loving husband Besides a
host Of friends and some distant rela-
tives. he leaves to mourn his untimely
departure from this life, an aged mother.
his wife, one sister, young daughter
and an infant sen.
