fugitive succeed in retaining his free
dom for more than day or two at
the most. The prison is situated in
the midst of desolate moorland re-
gion and is surrounded by bogs and
morasses. which offer tremendous OBJ
stacles to the convict who makes a bid
for liberty. If he betakes himself to
the few roadways he is almost certain
to be caught, because they are care
fully watched when it becomes known
that anyone has escaped. Stimulated
by the reward of $25 which is paid for
the recapture of a prisoner, the farm
ers join in the manhunt zealously.
Before he dares enter town the fugi-
tive must manage to exchange his
Jail uniform for ordinary clothing.
This he can obtain only by stealing it,
Destitute of money he has to resort
to the same method to get food, while
still wearing rhe garb that brands him
as criminal doing time" Escape
from within the prison walls is almost
impossible-except in sensational nov-
els. 1t is only when fogs come up sud-
denly, as they are apt to do on the
moors. that those who are working
outside the prison occasionally find a
chance to give the guards the slip.
A gang Of 60 men were working on
Christmas eve, 1897, in the rear of
the prison and some distance from it,
when fog was observed sweeping
down upon them. Three of them,
Ralph Goodwin. William Carter and
William Martin, decided to bolt when
the mist enveloped them. At signal
given by Goodwin the three men dug
their fingers into the earth, threw
the handfuls of soil into the faces of
the guards and took to their heels.
The wardens were thrown into tenn
porary confusion but soon recovered.
"Cover them; fire!" shouted the chief
warder. Shots rang out; a scream
followed and Carter was picked up
dead with bullet through his heart.
He was undergoing a life sentence for
brutal murder of an old man and
only through the skill of his counsel
had succeeded in cheating the gal
lows. The retribution that had over
q just one.
Martin was soon afterward brought
to bay under a tree. He threatened
the warder who had run him down
with piece of granite, but was felled
with a bludgeon and carried insensi-

AS Goodwin leaped over hedge he

And the footghts begin to die

When the grave in the grass is yawnng
And We totter, decrepit and gray;
When the darkness begins TO hover
And the end of the day
It Is good look back at the flowers
We have planted along the way.
When the candle has burned to the socket
And the flame in the wind is bent;
When life to the utmost limit
or years Is nearly spent,
1t is good TO look back at the kindness
Our lives to others have lent.
When the windows begin to darken
And bid farewell 20 the sun;
When the singing is turned to silence
And the end OF It all is won
It Is good to gaze back through the twilight
At the good that may have done.

dons famous experimentation mer-

on January "a, and the trial took place
last Friday. 1t lasted but a day, and
the jury was out but nine minutes.
The prisoner pleaded insanity, insist

moment by brain storm, induced by
the pangs of poverty, and by the fact
that he had been led to believe that
Whiteley was his father. Unless the
Home Office commutes the sentence
Rayner will be hanged within a month,

Room Needed By the County

The big county of Jefferson has
cally gone out of the borrowing bust
ness. All its funds have balances, ex-
cept possibly the flne-and-forfeiture
fund, which is gradually overcoming
its indebtedness. When the fineand-
forfeiture fund has a working balance
the county will in every respect be on
its financial feet. But there is no need
TO wait for that consummation, for

and money is coming into the office of
Treasurer Miller in a strong and
steady stream.
Why, then, should the county go
along with insufficient accommodation
for its courts. its officers. its prison
ers? Is it good policy to do without
elbow room when the county has both
credit and cash? Is it wise to rent
space when the county owns spacious
lot on which a court house of sufficient
size can be built?
This is a practical question, and the
county will surely render a practical
answer. The county will surely sup
port the Board of Revenue in any step
1t may take to give the county govern
ment, including it's courts, all the
room they need. A big county should
look to the future, and it should above
all else put aside makeshifts If an
eight or ten-story building on the site
of the present Jail be the best solution
there is nothing in the general condi.
ton of the county that stands in the
away. 1t would involve an issue of
bonds, but those bonds could be easily
carried until the time should come
when they could be easily called in

man Yesterday. when l saw thing,
or rather two things that set me think
inc. A poor half -starved looking fellow
came in and paid Is cents for a drink OF
whisky: a fat and prosperous-looking
business man came in and paid 10 cents
for lunch.
'If the cases had been reversed | would
not have given the matter moments
consideration. but why the starveling
preferred whisky to a good hot lunch is
what surprised me. l noticed as he paid
for the drink he put down dime and
nickel. evidently all the money he had,
and as he did SO he looked around and
cast a longing look towards the tables
where men were busy eating a good,
wholesome meal.
Here's u subject now for your sociol-
ogists or philosophers or some other body
of learned men who undertake to analyse
the causes of mems acts. If the man had
been under the influence of drink at the
time 1t would be a simple matter to ac-
count for his choice, but he was not; he
didn't take a big drink, such as drunk

Summer Heat in March

A persistent southwestern warm
wave has set the people to thinking
Some say the comet does it, and some
say volcanic disturbances in Jamaica,
Martinique and San Francisco have
changed the situation, but the weather
people who have no kinks in their
gray matter say the prevailing wave
Is due to the absence of an anti
cyclonic movement from the north
west. There is nothing, in other words,
to stop the course of the tropical cur
rents from the southwest, and they
have broadened themselves until they
have very nearly overspread the
country.
Weather observers say that when a
seacon begins with predominance of
warm southwestern waves, it is apt TO
be warm and dry throughout. Some.
thing is holding down and back the
cold currents that are bred in the
northwest, and the southwest is estab-
fishing in it's own way its own climate
throughout the country. Even in
Washington thermometers are record
ing 90 degrees in the shade right
along.
Let us hope. however, that the north
west will rouse itself to send a few
precipitation for the benefit Of the
sprouting seeds and the hesitating
grass. An April as warm and dry as
March has been would be good for
blowing purposes, but not altogether
best for the purposes of termination.
