HOT BAT TIE WITH
NEGRO CQNV|CTs
Overpower Guard and At
tempt to Escape on Hand
Car.
ONE NEGRO is KILLED.
Four Recaptured and Returned to
Road Force-Injured Men in Seri-
Gus Condition.

Richmond, July 16.--Four negro
convicts attacked guard at the
State Prison Farm in Goochland
county on Monday, took his gun and
pistol away from him, and made their
escape. They were tracked by Blood
hounds and recaptured, after fierce
pistol battle, in which one of the con,
victs was fatally wounded and two
Others seriously hurt.
1t seems that on Monday morning
about $50 o'clock a force Of negro
prisoners under guard was packing
hay into one of the big barns on a
hill aG FAR from the railroad station
A mechanical device for hoistering
the nay into The loft became clogged,
and one Of the negroes asked the
guard to lend him his knife in order
that he might cut it loose.
The request seemed a natural one,
and the guard reached into his pock-
ct to comply. To do so he lowered his
gun. Apparently this was a prear-
ranged signal, for as he did so three
convicts jumped on him from behind,
knocked him down, and took away his
weapons-a ten-shot magazine rifle
and his pistol. in which there were
five cartridges.
Having disarnled the guard, the
four negroes broke away, down the
hin toward the railroad track, scizeG
a handcar, ana escaped westward.
superintendent Davis sent out an
immediate alarm, and gave orders to
assemble men on horseback for pur-
suit. By the time horses had been
Sada.cd and tic bloodhounds made
ready n message came by telegraph
from Alaidens, next station to the
wst, that the man had abandoned the
mar ar and escaped into the woods.
The dogs we're taken TO Maidens and
put on the trail. which was readily
followed
After some distance the dogs be.

dent signs that their quarry was near
All four negroes were found hidden
in Il clump of bushes
As the guawis approached one OF
them called out:
Look out, we are armed and won't
be captured"
A sharp battle followed. None of
the guards was injured, but when the
fight was over one negro convict was
found seriously wounGed in the ShOu:e
der and arm, one shot in the neck, an
Other in the hips 4 fourth, who had
laid down in ditch. was uninjured
and surrendered. The gun and pistol
showed that the convicts had fired
fourteen shots at their captors, the
pistol having failed to 20 off once.
Al four convicctS were carried
back to tke State Farm, distance Of
about five miles, ana at The prison
hospital the negro shot in the shoul-
der was found to be in desperate
condition. His arm was amputated
in an effort to save his life, but he
died shortly after the operation. The
other injured men are in serious con-
dition.

Waldo felt cold and clnmmy. He be.

looked back toward the forest.

most overcame him. No! thousand

had not the remotest idea. Hs was not
an Imaginative youth. But ne kept on
up the ascent In tho hope that At the
end no would ind the creature which
had escaped him the nisht before.
As It had fed for brief instant
across the clearing beneath the moons
soft rays, Waldo had thought that II
bore . remarkable resemblance to
human figure. but OF that he could not
be positive.
At last his path broke suddenly into
the sunlight. The walls on either side
were but little higher than his head.
and a moment later he emerged from
the cleft onto q broad and beautifui
plateau.
Before him stretched a wide. grassy
plain. and beyond lowered range oil
mighty hills. Between them and MIN
lay q belt Of forest.
A new emotion welled In the breast
Of Waldo Emerson Smlth-Jonea II

No less than tho wonder which the
sight Of him insoired In the breast OF
the hairy one, for wha. no saw was a.
truly remarkable to his eyes ~ was
his appearance 70 those Of the cultured
Boseonian. And Waldo did indeed pro-
sent a most startling exterior. His six
feet two was accumulated by his OK
treme skinniness: his gray eyes looked
weak and watery within tho innRned
circles which trimmed them and which
had been produced by loss OF slssp and
much weeping.
His yellow hair was tangled and
matted md streaked with dirt and
blood. Blood stained his soiled sai
tattered ducks. His shirt was but .
mass OF frayed ribbons held to him ct
all only By tho neckband.
As he stood helplessv staring with
bu,ging eyes at the awful figure glow.
ering at him from the forest his Jaw
dropped. his knees trembled and he
seemed about 10 collapse from sheer
terror.
Then the hldeous man crouched and
came creeping war.y toward him.
With an agonlzed scream Waldo
turned and fed toward tho cliff. A
quick glance over his shoulder brough
another series Of shrieks from tina
frightened fugitive. for II revealed not
alone the TACT that the awful man was
pursuing aim, but that l. hind hin,
