NABBED AT PRISON DOOR.
Liberated Convict Is Alleged to Be
ParoIed Prisoner,

AS he stepped from the doors of the
Sioux Falls ~penitentiary, John H. Viii
son. alias Fox. was rearrested by an
officer from Illinois. 1t is alleged that
Wilson, as he is better known at Sioux
Falls, was a paroled prisoner from the
penitentiary at Joliet at the time he
got into trouble in South Dakota.
Wilson figured in a number of e n
sational episodes in Sioux Falls imme-
diately preceding and following his ar
rest on the charge for which he has
just completed a term in prison. When
he arrived here he was accompanied
by a woman, who was said to be from
Mankato, MINI. She posed as his
wife. Wilson succeeded in passing a
number of forged checks on Sioux
Falls merchants, and when an officer
went to arrest him he jumped from a
f%ourth-story window Of the Cataract
hotel to a root below and made his
way to the street, while the officer was
held at bay by the oma
Wilson finally was captured in Min
nesota and taken back to Sioux Falls
and placed in the county Jail. While
awaiting trial on the charge of forgery
he made a daring effort again to es-
cape. He succeeded in reaching the
street. but it IA only a few minutes
until he was one more a prisoner.
