Tonopah daily bonanza. [volume] (Tonopah, Nev.) 1906-1929, 1907-09-17

back. The next time, he habaes cor
pussed himself out. He worked him
self through the Stats In the back OF
the cell and made break for town.
In a moment the whole pack was in
full cry. A dozen men on horseback,
with big bus, formed the posse that
went down the ravIne after him. Up
hill and down hill they chased him,
and he finally made a getaway into
cottage. The policemen say that they
dragged him out from under a bed,
but he declares that his hiding place
was under carpenters bench. 1t
cost him fifteen dollars when the
judges got him.
Another attempt was made to cap
ture Cashier Cushman, and this time
his horse nearly threw him. Zeb
Kendall and two deputies almost
caught the horses tail, but the ami
NAL lunged forward and the saddle
almost rolled over. Mr.. Cushman
had been feeding the animal on grain
for three weeks to make this get
AWAY. History sayeth not what the
horses grain cost him, but the willy
cashier saved at least dollar by not
being caught.
All this time the game had been
going on, and the Elks were piling
up the runs. Ed Malley had knocked
ball over the row Of automobiles,
and brought home a man, and then
stopped, himself, at third base and
the keg. That made the score eleven
to ten in favor of the Elks, but after
that the antlered herd ran away from
the Eagles and the poor old birds
never got another run.
On Sunday night the Elks attend
ed the second performance of the
Butler theater in a body, and such
a time there was-a burlesque in
miniature of the days doings. The
colors of the Elks were much in evil
dence, both before and behind the
footlights, and there were happy hits
by Onslow and O'Brien.
1t had been a great day and those
who were responsible for the fun and
the entertainment are deserving of
everyhody's thanks The music was
especially fine. The Tonopah band
contributed its services gratuitously
and they furnished the very best kind
of music all through the game.
