also reported that the Carbondale peo-

balanced fell, rolling clear to the radia-
tor. He turned over, sat up and said
what do you tink of deeses' He
then jumped to his feet and followed
the other men out of the door in a
hurry"
Deputy Clerk and Recorder Kennedy
was called to the Office shortly after
eight O'Clock to issue hunting license.
He noticed the open door to the sher-
ih's Office. He looked inside, but failed
to see either of the officers. He no.
tieed the plastering scattered over the
floor and glancing upward he saw the
large hole in the wall and Immediately
started for Grand avenue where he had
seen Zimmerman but few minutes be-
fore. The sheriff hurried to the Jail,
but the birds were already gone and
were then hiking in an unknown direc-
tion. The report of the escape soon
spread over the city and within thirty
minutes men were scouting over the
roads and nearby hills in search of tn !
four men. The search was kept up all
night. but nothing was seen of them.
Fuller is thoroughly familiar with
every trail on the western slope and
should the others stay with him, he
will probably lead them safely to the
Utah line. He has several horses in
the Paradox country and it is believed
he will make for them and so to the
"bad lands" and there join the host
of other criminals, who seek that place
to avoid officers.
They are all desperate fellows, but
the mon after them are determined and
as oil are heavily armed with long
range rifles they will take no chances
with the fleeing men.
Dean says the work of saving the
bars was completed Saturday and the
men used shoe blacking to cover the
traces of the fresh steel. He holds to
his statement that the work was done
with the scissors, but the officers are
convinced that saw and acid were
used as they do not believe anyone
could cut that steel with the scissors.
1t is also said that at different times
peculiar sounds have been heard in the
Jail, but upon investigating the affair,
the sheriff failed to discover anything
wrong. Sheriff Zimmerman went to
New Castle on late train and seeing
four hoboes on the blind baggage, he
arrested them, but they failed to tally
, with his men and were Immediately re-
leased.

GO GET YOUR DEER.

Already the hills are filled with eager
watchers, who are seeking a shot at
deer. Tomorrow the law gives them the
right to kill one deer and it is safe to
say that ere the sun goes down be-
hind the mountains, more than a hun
dred OF the animals will have been
killed.
Every town in the state reports a
number of hunters, who are already on
the scene waiting for the hands of the
clock to pass the midnight hour to-
night, when they can then, without
fear of prosecution secure a goodly
supply of the tempting meat.
1t is to be hoped that more care
will be used this year than was last
and that the wounded animals will not
be allowed to die from suffering and
starvation, but will be put out of theil
misery, even if by SO doing the huntel
deprives himself of the right to kill the
big buck he sees later in the hunt.

mits, co lid be used By the commission
er in tho propagation and protection Of
game and Ash, with the cansent of the
Governor.
would further urge that the chief
game wardens be recompensed more
literally for the duties which they are
called upon to perform. Their duties
are arduous and disagreeable at timess,
and their salary and expense allowance
too small remuneration as compared
with services rendered.
And I would yet further suggest the
season for the legal taking of grouse
be from the first of September to the
twentieth of October, thus affording a
variety of hunting during the open sea-
son for the taking of deer, and Incl
IDENTIFY saving some of the deer which
are potted for camp meat.
And last, but certainly not least, 1
will make some remarks concerning the
lawful season for the wanton destruc-
ton of deer. 1t seems that by an un-
wise act of the legislature there was
n law enacted land / believe through
ignorance of conditions) giving the pot
hunter, and incompetent "a chance to
slaughter game, which a true sports
man would scorn to take advantage Of.
The law as it existed two years ago
was suitable to the true hunter. and to
the individual who desired deer to
hang in his smokehouse for future use.
But the wanton slaughter Of does and
fawns as permitted by law last fall,
and will again be permitted this fall,
will almost completely finish the ex-
termination of the species.
I shall therefore suggest that the le-
gal open season for the killing Of one
deer with horns, by one person in one
open season, be from the first to the
fifteenth of October.
And that some of our citizens and
sportsmen who have the desire and
time, will frame bill along those lines,
and use their best endeavors to induce
the next legislature to pass the meas
ure.

AN71ERs BOY SHOT.
Rifle Reveille.

Rlf1e hevellle.
Last Saturday afternoon David Nal
lory, the 13-year-old son of Mr.. and
Mrs. F. W. Mallory, who reside in the
Antlers country, was going hunting in
company with a young man named
Chapman, aged %. Young Mallory was
in the rear of his companion, who was
trailing his gun along. When near the
Tibbetts house the trigger caught in
some sage brush and the gun was dis
charged, the charge of the shot striking
the lad in the right breast, tearing
through the breast muscles and emerg-
ing near the arm.
Dr. Dymenberg was at once called to
the scene and rendered temporary medi-
cal aid snd then the unfortunate youth
was brought to the sanitarium, where
he and DR.. Beall did all possible for the
sufferer, and at present he is resting as
easily as possible. The case is further
complicated by the fact that young
Mallory had severe cold and it is
feared pneumonia may set in, in which
case his chances of recovery will be con
siderably lessened.
All sympathize with the boy and his
parents in this unfortunate occurrence
and hope that he may come through all
right. No blame attaches to Mr.. Chap
man for his part in the accident.

ISSUES WORTHLESS

From Wednesdays Daily Post.
Robert Baldwin, said to be fore
man for the Central Colorado Power
company at shoshone, was arrested yes
terday by Marshal Weidenhammer on
the charge of issuing worthless checks
to a number Of the Glenwood business
men.
1t is alleged that Baldwin gave out
a number Of these fake slips Of paper
and that Bart Petrini secured one of
them. They were blanks from the
Citizens National bank and when pre-
sented at their window, were promptly
turned down ~ the man Baldwin did
not have 4 cent ON deposit.
Marshal Weiaenaammef placed hi'
man in the county jail last night to
await further action in tho matter. II
is claimed that friends Of Baldwin are
making an effort to square the affair
and thus prevent his being given few
years in the state prison.

the exhibits of field crops, orchard
fruits, livestock, minerals, manufac-

Prom fussday's DAILY foss.

Prom fussday's Daily fost.
Swinging their blankets over their
shoulders, opening the door, bidding
farewell to their companions, last night
at eight O'Clock, four of the most des-
perate of the nine criminals incarcer-
ated in the Garfield county jail in this
city, once more breathed the free air
and struck out for freedom.
For some time past different prison
ers have been saving at thes fst steel
bars on the cage in which the prisopers
were allowed to spend the greater part
of their time. The saving is said to
have been started by F7agerty, the
Meeker man, who was held here for
several weeks pending hearing in the
district court of Rio Blaneoscopnty.-.
When Barclay was placed in the
keeping of Sheriff Zimmerman,.sit is
said, he and the others that escaped
with him, began planning their Pit.
But a few feet from them was Bar
clay's suit case and in this was pair
of scissors. During the absence 81 the
sheriff and uDdersheri6, Barclay by
means of mop pole, secured the suit
case and the rest was easy. So adept
was he in the handling Of the asair
that the officers failed to notice that
the case had ever been moved from
where they placed it when BARCLAY was
landed.
For days, it is said, Barclay and the
other three men took turns at saving
two of the above steel bars. They
elected two on the north side Of the
cage at the bottom and near the back
end. They did their work well and
when the bars severed near the cross
bar, it was an easy matter to pry them
loose from the floor Of the cage. Roll
ng their blankets and pushing them
through the small opening, they fol-
lowed, thus all were in the corridor
with only a light plastered wall be-
tween them and the Office Of the sher-
ia. Securing heavy iron bar, they
crushed the lathing and plastering and
crawled through into the ONCE. The
hole into the Office is said to be in the
| same place where other prisoners es'
! capped several years ago.
Dean, one of the prisoners who re-
NAMED in the Jail, tells of their es-
cape and shows that he and the otherA
were thoroughly familiar with all the
plans of the escaping ones. He said
last night, "it was amusing to watch

 There is therefore the additional amount of S288.44 due the Town of Newtown from Charles H. Northrop.
 1 have prepared statement of amounts due the Town from Taxpayers on account of errors and omissions from the Collectors Book, amounting to $255.S7, the same being under separ- ate cover, to which reference should be made for the items of the same.
 have prepared statement of liens, under separate cover, showing all liens unpaid and from this statement it ap- pears that there are liens uncollected, the knowledge of which the Tax Col lector in office since 1904 has not had from the Tax books in his possession.
 I have included in the summary statement of outstanding taxes under separate cover, statement of the un- collected Military Communication taxes for the IA years of enrollments of 1894 to 1907 inclusive, also the amounts paid the State Treasurer for the collection of this tax has caused loss to the town, for the IA years, amounting to $2,71LOO.
 All of which is respectfully submit ted, -[ Frank E. Soule.
 To the Town of Newtown: At a special Town meeting of the Town of Newtown the following vote was passed: (see Records of Town Meet ings, Vol. 8, p. 395.) Resolved, that Henry B. Coger. E. c. Page, Charles E. Beers, Edward Troy, and Charles C.. Morris are hereby appointed commit tee with full power to investigate and to cause to be investigated the books and accounts of the Town Treasurer together with books and accounts of any other town official which they may deem necessary or convenient for this purpose and to employ an expert ac- countant to act under their directions and to report back to this meeting or an adjournment thereof"
 The Committee appointed by this vote reports to the Town as follows:
 It has held large number of meet ings ana all the members have been present at every meeting except one, when MT Morris, through an accident, was not warned.
 At the first meeting, held on Decem- Der 4, 1907, the Committee, after 8 protracted debate as to what method of procedure would be the most etfec' tive, determined to employ Frank E. Soule and to instruct him "to immedl ately continue the investigation he has already made so las. to cover another

sometimes longer) after the collee- tors book was issued, it would indicate that such amounts as were considered by the Collector and Selectmen as un- collectable, for the various reasons al- lowed the selectmen to abate, were not abated, and the Collector was expected at those times to collect the balance then outstanding and under the law would be liable to the Town for the collection of the the total amount Of the book less the abatements. . Some amounts were thus abatedi that were afterwards collected, and other amounts were abated in error, the reports of the examination of each years lists giving the full information thereof. This method of drawing town orders for amount of abated taxes, which or der is given by the Collector to the Treasurer as a part of his collections and appears in the Treasurer's report as receipts of taxes" is misleading way of handling the matter, and should be discontinued, and taxes abated by the Selectmen. should be recorded in an Abatement Book kept for that pur- pose only. Such book has been pro cured by the Selectmen for further use.
 The 1901, 1902 and 1903 tax books were given to Mir Clark's successor 1T office, John F. Houlihan, after his cleo tion in October, 1904, and such amount as was uncollected on the same at thai time is deducted from the total amoun of the tax books issued to MT Clark.
