JUMPED FROM TRAIN
AND is AT LIBERTY
Slim Braxton Was Being Brought Back
to Burlington from Montreal by
His Bondsman.

Burlington, Nov. l0.--Slim BraXton
who Is wanted by the authorities on q
charge of selling intoxicating liquor, was
ordered deported by the Canadian courts
but escaped from the custody of Joseph
Agel Saturday night by jumping from
a fast moving train a short distance
from Colchester. In spite OF the fact
that a strict search has been conducted
for him, no signs OF his whereabouts
have been discovered and reward OF 500
has been offered by Agel to anyone who
can give clues which viii lead to BFax-
| tons arrest.
Braxton formerly operated a resort
near Fort Ethan Allen and was several
times arrested on charges of selling in
| toxicating liquor. On the last arrest
Agel went Braxton's bail for $1,000 and
the respondent disappeared. That was
more than a year ago and since then the
bail has been been called. Agel stood to
lose the money but asserted that
Braxton was in Montreal and secured his
deportation. At the time he was arrest
ed, Braxton is claimed to have been run
ming resort similar to the one he OPP
Grated here. His headquarters were at
2,26T st. James street
At the first hearing Braxton was or
dered deported but he took an appeal
That was week ago Thursday and
since that time Agel has been in Mont
real On the second trial, Braxton was
ordered deported under the section OF
the immigration laws, which provides
that any citizen who has been convicted
of crime in any other country within
a space of three years shall be classed as
an undesirable citizen and be deported.
AgeI started out with Braxton Satur-
day afternoon and he was handcuffed.
At st. Adams there was wait and
Braxton was locked up in Jail during
that time. After leaving st. Adams, the
captive pleaded with Agel to take oil the
handouts and this Agel did. A half
mile or so out of Colchester, while the
train was going at the rate Of 30 miles
per hour, Braxton asked If he might go
to get a drink OF water To this Agel
consented and Braxton went toward the
drinking tank. The door was open and
the negro dashed through il and jumped
off. Agel saw that he intended to get
away and started for him but was
trifle too late.
Braxton is about six feet, two inches
in height, weighs nearly 200 pounds and
is an exceptionally we'll proportional
mulatto. At the time he jumped from
the train, he wore light colored SLOUGH
hat, gray overcoat, and brown suit. He
had Sl3 when he jumped from the train
A bench warrant has been sworn out
for him and the sheriff's department is
assisting in the search.

The Greenfield (Mass.l Gazette says
that some of the hill towns in Massa-
chusetts never before saw real live
candidate for governor; so they were
nightly pleased when Charles S. Bird
took a turn in their midst, pleased to
such an extent that they voted for him
in large numbers. That makes very
slimsy reason why over 10000 more yot-
ers registered their choice for Bird over
Gardner; indeed, it is probable that
there were other and more powerful rea-
sons why they didn't vote for the
straight Republican ticket as they used
to do in those hill towns of the Bay
state. Perhaps if Gardner cleans house,
as he proposes to do in his second cam
paign for the position, there will be
greater disposition to vote for him on
the part of those 10000 voters and more.

GOVERNOR FELKER AND THE
THAW CASE.

A formal demand was made upon Gov
the state of New Hampshire for the re-
turn of one who had been indicted on a
charge in the state of New York. IL
was not Governor Felker's business to
go back of the Indictment and investi-
gate the action of the grand jury which
reported the indictment; but it was his
part merely to recognize the requisition
of another state having equal right as
his own for the return of person whom
the state Of New York held to be within
it's righfful claim, although that person
was temporarily removed by the bound
airy of the state. Sentiment might have
swayed the executive Of New Hampshire
to do otherwise and to refuse the de-
mand of the sister state, but interstate
law prompted and directed him to honor
the requisition, or formal demand, of
New York state, and he could scarcely
have done anything except to surrender
that person to New York state. There
FORE Governor Felker followed his clear
course of procedure and agreed to grant
extradition papers in the case of Harry
X. Thaw, thus settling one of the prob.
lens that are being raised constantly in
this notorious action. The matter has
now gone beyond the authority of the
state of New Hampshire and into the
jurisdiction of the United States courts.
When the people of New Hampshire
think the situation over thoroughly,
they will be quite sure to commend
their executive for his position
