The escape of Harry Kendall Thaw

to bring another potation, he ex-

the county Jail he was in the hospital
ward. A few minutes before he made
his getaway he asked me to get him
two plates of chop suey. The oblig-

post of two dollars. McNicholas was
rich, and paid the deposit.

AZ years, until eight years ago, when

Rla Balloons to Have wheeIa.

German manufacturers Of dirigible
airships are seeking a landing ap-
paratus that will insure the safety of
their delicate gas bags. Many Of the

faulty landings.
A car of considerable length re-

NOT LOOKING FOR ANY MORE
Youngsters Supply Of Oysters on
Hand More Than Sufficient to
Meet the Demand.

A youngster whose parents had
taken him for the first time from his
inland home to the seashore became
interested in oysters. One day they
were served at table, on the half-shell,
and he asked:
Mother, what are those?"
oysters, dear. Raw oysters"
Can you eat them-like that?'
"Oh, yes"
Can / have one?"
why, yes, if you want it,"
He put the slippery thing into his
mouth, but retained it there for eX
Fermentation. The attention of the
company meanwhile was attracted
elsewhere, and when finally the
mother turned again to her son his
face had undergone a change.
Would you like another oyster.
dear?" she asked him.
For several seconds there was no
reply. There seemed some difficulty
of speech. and only after a struggle
was he able to gurgle: II don't (glub)
want this one."-Everybody's Maya

He knew he hadn't any to lose.
When you put those wooden shutters

pected his game. He knew, if the
alarm was on. it would ring when he
cut the wire. but he also knew that the
chances were 100 to 1 against the cut
being discovered, or the alarm put in
working order before tomorrow"
why can't we ambush him 2" I sug-
gested.
We might try, but it will be a
mighty risky undertaking, Lester"

III got out his penknife, loosened
two or three of the staples which held
the wire in place. drew it out, scraped
back the insulation, and twisted the
