8 SHOTS FAILED
TO STOP CONVICT
CAPTURED half NAKED
JASPER REYNOLDS TAKEN BY
DEPUTY PAYNE AFTER A
NIGHT IN WOODS.

After having lodged eight bullets
from an officers gun and remained
half-naked hiding in the woods for
about six hours, Jasper Reynolds, an
escaped convict, was captured near
Bristol, Is miles east of Conway, at
an early hour this morning by Deputy
Sheriff c. 0. Payne. Reynolds, who
was convicted of embezzlement and
sent from this county last January,
was brought to Conway today and will
be taken back to the penitentiary to-
morrow.
Reynolds escaped from convict
camp near the Oklahoma line on the
Rock Island railway Monday of last
week. The officers here had not been
notified of his escape, but Sheriff J. S.
johnson accidentally heard Saturday
that Reynolds had been seen at one of
the wagonyards here, and ascertained
over the long-distance telephone that
the convict was an escape. He put
Deputy Payne on the trail, and the
latter learned yesterday that Reynolds
had gone to the home of Jim Teddle-
ton, his wife's brother, with whom she
is living.
The officer entered the house shortly
after midnight this morning, but Rey-
nolds took a flying leap through win
dow, and, although Payne fired eight
shots toward him, the convict escaped
in the darkness. The officer said he
could easily have killed Reynolds, but
did not want to do so and allowed
HIM to escape rather than shoot TO kill
when the first shots failed to stop him.
Mr.. Payne returned to Bristol and
summoned four or five men to aid him.
They went back and after ascertain
ing that Reynolds had not left the
field, began to search through the
woods for him. At $50 this morning,
Mr.. Payne was rewarded by stepping
up on Reynolds hiding in clump of
bushes. The convict made no resist
ance this time. He was clad only in
thin undershirt, but when he left the
house he grabbed coat, which he had
tied around him when the officer found
him.
Reynolds had only about five
months of his sentence left to serve.
He said ha was not mi eff 70 n cd in tba
camp and had plenty to eat, but he
was sent out of sight of the guards
last Monday to work on hog pen
near the camp and could not resist the
temptation to escape. The convict
was sent up after conviction of en-
bezzling $3.50 which had been sent
here by Press Harrod of Naylor for
deposit in one of the local banks.

PRICE OF BROM
CORN TO BE HIGH
FAULKNER COUNTY FARMERS
ADVISED TO SOW SEED
AT ONCE.

Enid, Okla, July 24.-Broomcorn
may offer farmers of this locality an
opportunity to recoup their losses on
wheat, oats and corn. Broomcorn
may be planted any time within the
next two weeks and make a satisfac
tory yield. Broomcorn men say the
best crops they have seen were plant
ed on wheat field after harvest. The
seed is not expensive, about 50
bushel, and bushel of seed will plant
fifteen acres. Ed Wall, who repre-
sents broomcorn house in Wichita,
was in Enid after an extensive trip
through the broomcorn district. He
says the crop is short and that good
broomcorn is sure to bring $3.50
ton in the fall. Four acres of aver
age Garfield County land, it is said,
will produce ton.
Chickasha, Okla, July 1S.-Brooms
will be the highest in years, judging
by the price the farmers are re-
ceiving for their broomcorn. The
broomcorn harvest began in this
county today.
The crop is short and of poor
quality, but the price is the best in
years. Buyers explain that gener-
al drouth has caused a shortage in
the broomcorn supply.

There 10 not the slightest question but
what electricity is the best for lighting a

brightest, but this kind OF lighting Is so
very brilliant that unless suhdued by

Injurious to the sight. Where neither

makes, however, a very good substitute.
1t is quite customary in places where
both gas and electricity are available to

the fixtures arranged to burn both gas

that once in a while when the electricity
is off. through power plant or cable
troubles. there is stll light available.
While this point is good one, It is really
so seldom that this precaution becomes
of value through the failure OF the cleo

sidered an absolutely necessity and II
saves considerable IN expense when only
one system of lighting is used, as well
as making the fixtures more handsome In
