Shsvina on One Side.

The shaving on one side only OF the
heads and boards OF prisoners OF war
was obviously done to prevent any at
tempt at escape. But there have been
other motives for such half sha wing.
which occurs at all sorts OF points In
history. Sometimes the act has been
pure insult, as when Hanun. king OF
the children of Ammon, shaved Off
half Of the boards OF David's servants.
In these days the victims would have
mended matters by shaving the other
half. But Jewish reverence for the
beard forbade that, and David told the
men to ''tarry at Jericho until your
boards be grown" Demosthenes. when
he shut himself up for months in a
subterranean chamber to practice ora
tory. shaved half Of his head to cut
off all temptation to go abroad.-Lon.

kits under their arms and told him
they were to repair electric wires out
side the prison wall which. had been
struck by lightning.
The guard questioned the two work
men and finally allowed them to pass
outside. They made good their escape
and had nearly two hours start on the
authorities before they were missed.
Immediately upon the discovery OF
the escape the great whistle at the
penitentiary was sounded, telling peo-
pie for miles around that there had
been a Jail delivery city and county

RICH ORE BROKEN
BY AUST|N-OAK0TA
SECTION BEING EXPLORED IN
VIRGIN PORTION OF A
RICH DISTRICT

For more than two weeks the Re
veille has been aware of the fact that
phenomenally rich ore was being
stripped in the west drift at the 100
foot level from the X-Ray shaft on
the property of the Austin-Dakota
Mining company operating near the
famous old Whitlach mine on the
south side, says the Austin Reyeille.
Mention has not been made, await
ing the progress of the drift to ascer-
tain whether the rich shoot bears the
car marks OF permanency and impor-
lance, OF whether it might turn out to
be merely chance deposit.
Specimens brought in from the
mine this week by Superintendent
Littrell have been examined by most
of the old time miners In the Lander
Hill workings. The unanimous opin
ion IL that the rock Is the richest ever
brought TO the surface in Austin. II
is ruby silver and "black metal

ed by every man who ever sought un

which the drift is being run is eigh
inches in thickness. The streak vii

to Immediately sink another loo fee
