Big JAIL DELIVERY
At Ashland Neatly StOpped-PrisOner
Broke Concrete Floor With
Iron Ball.

Ashland, KY, September 5-Pris-
oners in the city prison last night had
very impressive demonstration OF
"lost energy" when they were per-
mitted to work for nearly five hours
to gain their freedom surreptitiously
and then informed by the police who
had enjoyed their efforts to make a
Jail delivery, that there was nothin'
doin' what they were thinking about
About half past seven o'clock mem
bers Of the fire department whose
headquarters are near the city prison
heard a noise like someone breaking
concrete with a heavy weight. They
listened for a few minutes and then
realized that someone in the prison
was trying to break out. Officers
Rice, Jackson and Gaines, who were
at the police headquarters were in
formed as to what was going on and
1t was decided to let the men doing
the work go ahead and then catch
them as they undertook to come out.
About midnight Chauffeur Waggoner
of the fire department saw man
poke his head out Of the hole close to
the ground on the side of the city
prison nearest the fire station and he
at once GRABBED hold of the head. One
of the police about the same time
grabbed hold Of the mans feet from
the inside and as neither the fireman
nor the policeman knew of the others
intentions, the owner of the head and
the feet. Tom Layne, who had been
locked up earlier in the day on an in
toXicated charge had rather strenu-
GUS time of it for a few minutes.
There were forty-two prisoners in
the prison last night, the unusual
number being the results of Labor
Day celebration.
The men who attempted to make a
getaway had broken the concrete in
the floor of the prison by means of a
heavy iron ball which they found in
the search room. The dirt was re-
moved with a shovel which was also
found in the search room.

PROMINENT RIPLEY CITIZEN
DIES
(RiDley Bee)

While not unexpected, the an
nouncement Of the death Of Mr.. John
Chambers Leggett, which occurred on
last Saturday morning. September l,
1917, was great shock. Mr.. Leggett
had been suffering from heart trou-
BILE for several months, but had been
able to receive and converse with
friends when they called, and 1t was
not known that the end was so near.
Mr.. Leggett was always an active bust
ness man and his business brought
him in contact with about all Of our
people, consequently he was we'll
known to all, and his passing away
will be lamented by all of our citizens
and those of the surrounding COM
munity. He was "a years Of age, hav-
ing been born in Ripley, September
20, 1S43, and living all his life among
us. The funeral was held on Monday
afternoon at the NJ. f. Church, under
the auspices of the Masonic Fratern-
ity, Cincinnati Commandry, No. 3, of
which he had long been member be-
ing in charge. They brought with
them some 81 Knights and band of
20 pieces. Highland Commandery, of
tlillsboro, also sent delegation Of
knights. The funeral cortege was the
largest and most imposing ever seen
in our city.

American Association
ALLIES ARRANGE GREAT DRIVE
TO BREAK AUSTRIA

Washington, September 5-To Offset
menacing possibilities in the Russian
situation and to force Germany into
peace more rapidly, the allies proba-
bly, will soon undertake new anti
Austrian campaign.
Strong pressure is being exerted on
this government to declare war
against Austria and then to aid in
downing her, so Germany would be
without her aid, and cut off Turkey
and Bulgaria.
Thus far American officials, in
Guiding Secretary Lansing, have seen
the rather imminent possibility of war
between Austria and the United States
though they have inclined to let Aus
tria take the initiative.
Just what form the new anti-Aus-
trian activities may take is shielded
as military secret, though appar-
emily 1t will come by way of Italy or
through more forceful tactics in the
near east.

An Ansco Kodak is lost-has been
lost for some time. 1t was the prop
erty Of William Gordon Smoot, who is
now in the U. s. Navy at Norfolk, Va,
doing duty as member of the old
Seaman's Guard. He would feel deep
ly grateful for the return of this
kodak or knowledge leading to its re-
Covery. Who will find it and return it
to his father?
