Good Results EXpected-OsthoR
Takes Track Men.

Track men under Coach Osthoff,
and baseball men under Coach Bob
Ter, will begin work this week in
earnest, and until conditions permit
the real outdoor work, training, will
be carried on within the Gymnasium.
Coach Boiler is now planning the
construction of a cage for his base
ball aspirants, where plenty of hit
ting practice can be INDUCED in by
his pupils previous to outdoor work
later on in the spring.
"Ostie, with track men, looks like
the real stuff Not that he is better
than Boiler, for we think that would
be impossible, but we are confident
that his success with track will equal
that of Coach Boiler. AS for Bob
Ter and baseball, nothing could be
more characteristic of filling a long
felt want than this very arrangement.
Ever since Boiler has been in the in
stitutiOn, it has been the hope of
baseball tossers that he would some
day have charge of the direction of
baseball activities That he will
make decided success is assured,
for although some may not know it,
Bohler is no SLOUGH at the game him
sell.

Colfax, Wash, Feb. 21.-Deputy
Sheriff Cole walked, daily, in the
face of death when he made the
rounds Of the county jail locking the
prisoners in their cells for the night
His would-be slayer is John w.
Burns, confessed assailant of Con-
ductor r. J. Reader at Riparia, who
last night picked hole through the
thick brick wall of the jail and made
his escape.
This information was impaired to-
the officials today by the eight pris-
oners, one of whom is Lester Blaine,
convicted of second degree murder
for the killing of James Silvey at
Palouse, and who refused to leave
the Jail with Burns.
According to the prisoners, Burns
had made plans to kill Deputy Cole
when he came to lock the cells for
the night, take his keys and break
jail. His only weapon for the crime
was a piece of brick which the pris-
oner carried in his sleeve.
When Blaine and other prisoners
learned Of this attempt to kill, they
rebelled and refused to allow Burns
to carry out his threat. The pris-
oner then resorted to digging a hole
through the wall.
Burns, who is one-fourh Indian,
also told his companions at the Jail
that he and partner broke Jail in
Oregon by knocking down the jailor
and taking his keys The fugitive
said he would make haste to the In
dian reservation, where he would be
safe among friends.
Burns dug his way out of the coun-
ty jail last night after having labored
for five days with caseknife SNUG
gled into him by friends. He pre-
pared for short stay away from
civilization by eating an unusually
hearty supper and by slowing away
a sandwich or two in his pockets. He
left the Jail at $50 o'clock.
Burns gave the name of his father
as George Burns and said his par
ents live near Walkerton, Marshall
county, Indiana Burns stated to an
officer that he left home six years
ago and has been tramping through
the northwest since
