EGELSTON ESCAPES;
STILL AT LARGE
Charged With Horse Stealing, Prssner
Holds Up JaiIer and Hikes to
HiIls.-Reward for Cap

About 10 o'clock last Thursday
evening E. A. Egelston, a prisoner
in the Lewis county jail, held on
charge of stealing horses belonging
to Chas. Deschamp and I. S. Billow.
made his escape by forcing Jailer
Clyde Price, at the point Of an i'm
provised dagger, into a cell and
compelling a fellow prisoner to as
sist in tying and locking up the jailer.
l7e struck for the breaks of Law
yer's canyon and was well on his
way before an alarm reached the
outside; and has not since been seen
by any Of the several searching
parties that vent in pursuit.
Il is the general impression that
the fugitive has taken refuge in the
hills beyond the Clearwater south
east from here. A reward Of $50
has been offered BY Sheriff Shockley
for his apprehension OF information
leading thereto.
Egelston had planned to make his
break for liberty the night before,
and had held back a case knife from
his supper dishes which he fashioned
into formidable looking weapon by
breaking the edges of the blade SO
as ia form a point and then giving
the same keen edge BY whetting
it on the cell floor. Near midnight
Wednesday he made a pretext of
wanting to leave his cell and called
Jailer Price to let him out. but in
stead of being alone as the prisoner
had expected to 6nd him. Price vas
accompanied by Probate Judge Rob
erts. and Egelston gave over his at
tempt.
BY threatening Chess Emory. a
fellow prisoner, held on q charge of
first degree murder, Egelsson forced
him to secrecy as to his plans and
made him assist in the work of es-
cape, although Emory, who refused
to escape with the fugitive. states
that he tried all day Thursday to
gain an opportunity to inform the Of
hcers Of Egelston's plans. the latter
keeping too close watch on him for
any success.
About 8 p. m, while Deputy Sher-
IL ]. W. Anderson was at supper,
Tailer Price, following the usual Gus
ON, ordered the prisoners to enter
he single cell of the jail and went
n to lock them up for the night. As
ie swung the door shut Egelston
iorced it back, presented the knife.
which Price maintains was a large
lirk, at his breast and with a dire
hreal forced him to enter the cell.
Then Emory vas made to tie Prices
lands securely behind him with a
owel and close and lock the door.
The two prisoners then stepped into
he Office where Egelston secured a
mall revolver belonging to Mr.. An
|erson and with this forced Price to
ell him where to find heavy Colt
ran and belt of cartridges belonging

long campaign a touch OF personal
activity that emphasized the interess

More than the presidency is at
stake in the elections The Republic
an forces have concentrated their ef-
forts in doubtful states to prevent an
ouerturning OF local organizations or
capture Of the legislatures in states

Democrats have made en- organized
assault upon a number of states, to
control the legislatures, so that tile
majority IN the United States senate
may bes wing to the Democratic
column
Against Republican predictions that
the senate will remain Republican.
