JAIL DELIVERY IS
F0|LED
TRIO OF BAD MEN HAD ABOUT
COMPLETED ARRANGEMENTS
FOR THEIR ESCAPE FROM
COUNTY JAIL.

With only a few inches of steel
Intervening between them and lib
erty, the long, arduOus labor of
weeks came to naught yesterday
when j. Miller. burglar, and II. A.
Lewis, convicted of grand larceny,
were removed from a cell in the
county Jail where an inspection re-
vealed the fact that the duet, to-
gether with Charley Phillips. MUIR
derer, had been saving through the
steel sheets of their cell and were
almost ready for a break for fl, \
dom. II
The authorities believe that the
work was done during the day, two
of them making noise enough to
cover up the grating of the saws
through the steel.
Pieces of saws were found hidden
in the bedding, and the sheet steel
in the back of the cell sawed
through and three bars started.
Phillips was removed to another
cell and the other two taken to
Walla Walla to serve their SEN
fences. The attempted Jail break
will do much toward keeping the
men in prison the limit of Is years.
The sheriff's office is at sea re-
garding the identity of the person
or persons who struggled the saws
to the prisoners.

PITTSBURG, Jan. 21.-With five
prominent business men under ar
rest, charged with conspiracy, per-
jury or bribery, all Pittsburg is ex-
cited. 1t is now believed that the
complete operations of the men
higher up in the graft scandals,
revealed year ago, will be uncov-

The prosecution hopes to show
that there was conspiracy among
certain prominent business men
and bankers and members of the
city council to defraud the city out
of enormous amounts of money by
designating certain banks as depos.

Sickness in Flowers.
Not even the flowers are TO be per.
mitted by those germ fiends who arc
ever on the lookout for bacteria. A
London physician says that many skin
diseases are caused by flowers, and
gardenias, jonquils, narcissi and white
arum lilies are the cause OF sickness
among those who are near enough to
smell them. The volatile oils that
produce the perfume also induce
headache and sometimes nausea.
