How They Eacaned.

Further investigation shows that the
tunnel made by Bassanella and Wollens,
and through which they escaped, was
about eighteen inches in diameter and
forty-four feet long. The floor Of the
carpenter shop was made of two inch
planks and was about two feet above
the ground. A short length Of plank
near the middle of the f1por was removed
and the tunnelling began in a sloping
direction SO that its depth beneath the
surface at the PRISONS outer wall was
seven feet. So nicely had the men
gagged the excavation that the outside
tunnel opening was close to the wall.
The earth from the excavation was
carefully spread on the ground under
the floor and covered with sawdust and
shavings, SO they had the best chance in
the world to cover. their tracks. From
hints cleaned from other convicts the
men were six weeks working on the tun-
mel, but no definite information on the
point can be secured.
The above is the press report given
out as to how these two men escaped
from the penitentiary at Bismarck last
week.

as it is told it looks very strange that
two such men, one of whom at least was
known: as most desperate man, could
have the opportunities necessary to DIG
a ditch of the size and as described, in
the day time. and from the floor of a
shop in the yard, and not be missed OF
detected by the guard. Just as it is
told it looks as if these men had been
turned loose into the carpenter shop and
let alone without surveillance of any
description until meal times. And it
looks hardly possible that they could do
the work unless this is true.
Here is one great reason for capital
punishment. When we learn that the
penitentiary is not secure enough to
hold such villains as Rassenella, then
we are glad to know that in his case at
least that he was shot dead by the off.
