SIX DESPERATE C0NVICTS
ESCAPE ON WEDNESDAY
night FROM STATE PEN

main in their cells and rest. The
men who are not allowed to go to the
Low s.id those WIZ Prefer to remain
in nLir cells are locked into the4r
cells by the cell house guard as soon
as the main body of lien leave fo-
the auditorium.
The new cell house guard, acting
under these rules, made the rounds
of the cells and locked all of those
who did not go to the show, as he sup
posed, into their cells. None of the
six men who escaped were in their
cells when he made these rounds, so
he naturally thought they had gone to
the show. While he was making the
rounds of the cells, it is thought, the
six men were playing hide and seek
with him at the south end of the cell
house tier.
One of the seXtet is supposed to
have jumped over the wooden parti-
ton which separates the library, To-
Gated at the south end of the cell
house, unlocked the door to the libra
ry from the inside, and the other five
slipped into the little room. Then
they probably hid behind one of the
bookcases until the coast was clear.
The man who jumped over the Ii
brary partition probably knocked over
the bookcase, for some of the books
were piled on the floor.
While this was going on, it is
thought, the new cell house guard
was making his rounds, locking up
the cells of those prisoners who did
not go to the show and finally went
to make his report. He came back
and walked the galleries several
times between s and o'clock. The
six men are supposed to have made
their getaway about 8.
The men had a hacksaw and with
this cut two Of teh heavy one-inch
bars on one of the windows off the
library and on the south end of the
new cell house. They cut the bars
on the bottom only and used piece
of steel pipe couple of feet long
to pry the bars outward and upward,
This allowed them room enough to
get out.
They probably cut the bars while
the cell house guard came to the Of
fee to make his report.
When all of the prisoners returned
to the cell house after the show
about 10 p. M, the fact that these six
men were missing was first discovered
There were plenty of guards strung
out between the dollhouse and the
Auditorium so that there was no
chance for the men to escape be-
tween these two places.
Immediately upon the discovery of
the getaway the big penitentiary
whistle was blown and forces were
thrown out around the country afoot.

An Unfair Feature.

ThA Wheeling Register comments
,ttcn the New York T11nes's mention
Of q newsdealer IN Alabama being ar
rested for selling papers containing
iquor advertisements. The Times
characterizes the situation as PROFIT
bition running anuck,'' and says that
the people OF Alabama will have to
content themselves to reading papers
and magazines printed within the
state.
The Register remarks that the Ala
ibanla law which the Times considers
SO highly Objectionable differs from
the West Virginia law in that it treats
all publishers alike The law in this
state discriminates against the local
publisher by making it a crime for
him to accept liquor advertisement
and permitting the free and unre-
stricted circulation OF newspapers
and magazines published outside the
state, regardless Of the number Of
liquor advertisements they may carry.

the German cruiser which sank the
Frye to be hanged. They certainly
have lost the idea of neutrality, how
ever correct they are concerning the
right punishment for the Offenders.
The situation is entirely too delicate
even to think about asking that they
be hanged. The Frye owners are
foolish to talk that way
