With the night chief of police and twenty feet away Louis Harris, a ne gro. serving long sentence in the city iai; quietly sawed one of the iron bars ina, kept him prisoner bent it back out of the way and squeezed his body through an eight inch opening and disappeared vest r. day morning before five o'clock Th" night sergeant discovered the hole 2 tine grating about ! o'clock but the prisoner lad already gone The oth- CT prisoners of whom there vet about fifteen were sound asleep and were not aware that their eomraae had escaped
 The officers are at q loss to know how he cut the bar that gave him his liberty. The end of the bar Is smooth except for a small projection and S ems to have been cut most of the distance and then bent back Clar- ence Branson, the night sergeant, heard a noise in the quarters oecu- pied by the prisoner sand going back to the cage saw Harris standing up in the cell but noticed nothing that would further arouse his suspicious. He went back 10 the office and when he returned saw the hole by which the man had escaped. It is thought by the officers that some of Harris friends slipped saw to him with which he cut his way 10 liberty.
 The other prisoners in the city jail did not learn Of the affair until this morning when they were taken out to work on the streets II is probable {, that had they known it the jail would have been empty this morning. Harris was placed in jail about month ago after having been convict ed of assault for which he was fined $500 and year in jail. As he cou1d , not pay the fine he would have had 10 serve S65 days.

IRvE COLE ENDS LIFE
WITH CARBoLIC ACID.
Body Found Yesterday Morning in
Alley in Northwest Part
OF Town.

About seven O'Clock yesterday
morning the dead body of 5. |. Cole
was found in an alley in the north
west part of town about twenty-five
or thirty feet from a house fronting
the alley in which his wife lives.
The Sheriff was notified and the
body was removed and an inquest
held by Coroner J. II. English.
Cole and his wife, who at the
time he married her was the widow
OF the late Eek Rariden, had sepa-
rated, mostly on account of his
drinking, and for some months he had
been living in st. Louis. About Il
week ago he returned to Farming
ton, and it seems had been trying to
effect some sort Of reconciliation.
Tuesday night about 10 o'clock he
went to the house and rang the bell,
and when admitted he said he want
ed to tell her good-by and that he
wouldn't bother her any more. She
told him to hush talking that way
and to go along into the next room
and go to bed. He said he was go-
ing to kill himself, aud Leeman,
son Of Mrs. Coles by her former
husband, told him he couldn't kill
himself there. He then went out
side and lay down by the window,
and Mrs. Cole thought she saw him
pouring something from IA bottle in
to Il glass. She tried to persuade
him to get up, telling him he would
get cold lying on the ground, and to
come on in the house, but putting
his hand over the bottle, he said
that would keep him from getting
cold. Leeman then went after Sher-
III London and wanted him to come
out to the house, arrest Cole and
put him In Jail, but the Sheriff said
he had no right To do that IL Cole
were not disturbing the peace. In
the meantime Cole went to the cor
ner Of the house and knelt down as
If he were praying. When Leeman
came back Cole met him at the gate,
and Leeman told him il ha was go
ing to act that way that he must
leave. Cole then went out of the
gate and on Wednesday morning
his dead body was found at the in
tersection OF the alley and the
street, There was n glass by him,
but no bottle was found. The glass
smelled strongly Of carbolic acid,
and the verdict Of the Coroner's jury
was in substance that he had died
from the effects of carbolic acid TAX
en- with suicidal intent.

PASSENGER AND FREIGHT
TRAINS COLLIDE ON
THE BELMONT BRANCH.
Engineer Paul and Several Others Re
ported Killed-Several Farming
ton People on Train Escaped.

Yesterday afternoon the south
bound passenger train on the Bel
mont branch Of the Iron Mountain
railroad and the northbound local
freight ran into each other beyond
Marquand, badly wrecking both
trains. Engineer Paul of Bismarck
and Mr.. Holmes of Fredericktown
were killed, and 1t is reported that
several others were killed, but we
have not been able to learn their
names or verify the fact, while II
number of others must have been
badly injured.
Mrs. Norman Blue of Bloomfield,
who had been visiting relatives
here, was on the train on her way
home, but fortunately escaped with
few bruises. Secretary Tomlin-
son of State Hospital No. and Mr..
II. b. Gillespie of this place were
also on the train, but neither of
them was hurt; they made their es-
cape from the wreck through win
dow.
1t is reported that the freight had
orders to reach Marquand at IA GER
tain time, but If 1t could not do so
to hold up at Bessville and wait for
the passenger. The conductor
thought he had time to make Mar
quand at the designated time and
the train was going with fun steam
on. The passenger train, it is said,
waited at Marquand minute over
the time that the freight was due
there and pulled out, the conductor
satisfied that the freight had
switched off and was waiting for
the passenger to pass. The result
was that the two trains smashed in
to each other few miles south Of
Marquand.
