LAID FOR SHERIFF
WITH A RAZOR
Crazy Man in Jail Had Weapon Con-
ceaIed in His Shoe and Con-
temp!ated Murder.

MT. PLEASANT. Sept. because
he was patient and kindly to one Of
his prisoners, Sheriff Goe was reward
ed with secret information which un-
questionably saved his life. Some
time ago prisoner was discharged.
Before leaving the premises he called
Sheriff Goe to one side and stated
that inasmuch as the sheriff had been
considerate to him, he wanted to give
him some information on which he
could act.
He startled Goe by announcing that
one OF the prisoners, a man named
Corbett, was planning to assassinate
the sheriff at the earliest possible op-
portunity and that he had concealed
on his person a razor which had been
smuggled to him by mis- wife.
Corbett, is the man who escaped
from the Dakota insane asylum, work
ed here as a painter, committed lar
ceny, and was chased by the sheriff
out near Highland, where a pistol
battle took place before he was ap.
pretended.
AS soon as Sheriff Goe heard of the
plot to kill him he went after Corbett
and thoroughly searched him Nc
weapon was found on him until he ex
ahmed his shoes and then under the
sole of one of them in recess care
fully cut out he found the razor.

He told the president that accord.
ing to the latest estimates the post
ofhce department will show a deficit

OF more than s2O,0O0O0u. This is the
largest deficit the postal service ever

ment.
The deficit for the fiscal year, end
ing June 30. 1908. was about $16,Ooo,-
600. The increase as nearly as can
be ascertafned, was due in part to ex-
tensions of the service; to the busi-
ness depreciation during the first part
of the fiscal year, and to the cumber-
some and expensive methods of hand

Nothing has been heard from DR..
Cook for the last eighteen months.
1t was DR.. Cooks plan to make his
base Of supplies or permanent camp
at Annatoak, in Greenland, about
Awenty miles north of Etah. This
would place him about 1000 miles
from the pole. He first made his way
westward out of tn cache and across
Ellsmereland: The Arctic club calcu-
lates that he reached this position in
the spring Of 1908.
The last news received from him
was dated March IL, 1908, when he
waa near Cape Thomas Hubbard.
He then reported that his health
was excellent, that he had picked up
a large party Of Esquimaux of superior
intelligence and that his prospects
for success were bright. He intended
to push on to the northern point of
Greenland and from there started his
dash to the pole in the winter of 1908.
He expected to return to his quarters
at Annatoak not later than next
month.
DR.. Cook was born at Calicoon de.
pot, Sullivan county, N. Y, in 1865
He was married in Brooklyn in 1902
to Miss Mary Hunt. His wife has
shared the belief of the Arctic club
that her husband has achieved the
goal of the north pole.
