Six Prisoners Escape from jackson
County Jail by Cutting
Bars.

A Wholesale Jail delivery occurred
at Jacksonville last Saturday night
when six persons confined in tn,
county jail effected their escape
about 8 o'clock, during the temper,
airy absence of the sheriff and jail
keeper. Two bars securing one OF
the windows of the Jail were sawed
in two with an old knife fitted up
as a saw, and egress was made
through the opening. Three of the
prisoners escaping were held OF
charges of burglary, and two were
accused of stealing and butchering a
calf, being held pending action of
the grand jury. The escape was a
clean getaway; no tidings of the
missing men have yet been received
The two Walsworths, one of whom
was the day before convicted of man
slaughter and the other of whom is
awaiting trial for murder, and man
named Boosey, who is serving a Jail
sentence for contempt of court, made
no effort to get away, but yelled for
the officers Immediately after the es-
cape was effected.

PresIdent Taft undoubtedlr needs.


Regardless of party the people OF
the Pacific Coast feel that President
Tart deeply interested himself In the
welfare Of this section by securing
full information on all important
subjects. 1t is to be regretted that
II was not possible for him to accent
the invitation of Mayor Kinney TO
stop at Grants Pass and partake of
the hospitality of its citizens, but he.
through Senator Bourne, received
the needed facts regarding the me-
cessities of this part of the Rogue
River valley and there is every rea-
son to believe that he will aid In
the work Of opening trails through
the Siskiyou forest reserve and. II
asked. will help in the construction
OF the proposed wagon road from
the mouth OF the Rogue river to
Crater Lake. The scriptures say:
ASK and ye shall receive" II the
people of the three counties. that is,
Curry, Josephine and Jackson, will
ask the help OF President Taft In
this matter the appear will not be In
vain. Since leaving home the presi-
dent has taken a deep interest in
the national forestry question and
we are told has now become an en-
on the subject. He sees the
of roads through these for
ests and, II appealed to, will, with
out doubt, give his powerful aid to
the construction of our wagon road,
which is, to large extent, through
the forest reserve.

COURT UPHOLDS WOMAN
SUING JERSEY CENTRAL.
Railroads Effort to Quash Cons
plant Fails.
[ Special to the Newark STAR

TRENTON, Dec. 17.-Justice Bergen
has filed in the Supreme Court an opin-
ion denying the motion of the Central
Railroad Company of New Jersey and
the New York and Long Branch Rail
road Company to strike out the decla-
ration in the suit for damages brought
against the companies by Margaret
Northrup. The plaintiff was injured
at the railroad station in South Am
boy.
According to the declaration filed by
the plaintiff her injuries were due TO
the companies providing mo proper and
sufficient platforms and lights and IA
cilities wherein and whereby the
plaintiff might have safely alighted at
the station" also that the platforms
and passageways provided for passen-
gers were insufficiently lighted, UNI
safe and insecure and out of repair
causing the plaintiff to fall and receive
her injuries.
Justice Bergen holds that the Ian
guage quoted is a sufficient statement
for a cause of action. The opinion says
that under the relation averred to exist
between these parties the providing of
safe platforms upon Which passengers
may alight and leave the premises of
the defendant is Il legal duty, the omis-
sion to perform which is negligence, in
law, and if because OF such neglect a
passenger is injured, without fault OF
his part. he has Il right OF action there
for.

In anticipation of the promised visit
to the neighborhood of the STAR office
of he Pan Dandy girl, aTlarge num-
Der of people took points of vantage
today in Broad street neal the entrance
of the STAR building. They had the
Pan Dandy girls word for it that she
would pass this office between 1890 and
1880 o'clock, and in consideration of the
reward of $50 offered for her capture
they wanted to see her do it,
Many amusing mistakes were made
during the time of the expected visit
of the mysterious young woman who
has been sought day after day by large
numbers of amateur Hawkshaws. APP
parently incipient powers of deduction
had not yet been developed to a point
necessary to the detection OF the Pan
Dandy girl, as she triumphed again.
Several young women who resembled
the crowds general conception of the
Pan Dandy girl to some extent were
stopped and asked the necessary ques-
ton, but each and all of them denied
emphatically that she was the much
sought for person and hurried away.
