Three Persons Escape From Charles
Town Jail.

By the use of wire to open lock
on one of the inside doors, and then
saving hole through the floor, that
enabled them to get into the coal Gel
lar, thence through a window to the
outside, three prisoners escaped from
the Charles Town Jail Wednesday
night between six and ten o'clock. The
men were Jesse Fuller, Ellis Poles, and
Hayward Johnson, all colored and all
serving time for bootlegging.
The getaway was effected while the
prisoners were allowed in the corridor.
The door leading from the lower cor
ridor to a closet under the stairway
was unlocked by means of piece of
wire, the successful use Of it for the
that would have reflected credit on an
experienced Jail breaker. Once in
side the closet the prisoners proceeded
to saw and cut small hole in the
floor. This opening by tight squeeze
allowed them access to the csal cellar.
From there the route to freedom was
easy. A spacious window easily OPP
ened invited them out. They, each
and every one of the three accepted.
When Jailer w. B. Alder went to
lock them in their cells for the night,
he discovered to his dismay that the
men had gone. Fuller was committed
to Jail on March l, on a sentence of
ninety days. The other two were put
in Jail on March 16, each to serve a
60-day term.
Poles and Johnson are registrants,
the former in Wood county, w. Va,
and the latter in Rappahannock coun-
ty, Va. Only few days ago the jail
er had an order from Governor John j.
Cernwell to release johnson as soon
as the required order was issued for
him by the War Department. They
will have much more difficulty in keep
ing out of the army than they had in
escaping from Jail.

West Virginia viii Be Compelled To
PAY Debt.

Washington, April 22.-The SUI
preme Court today ordered reargu-
ment of the proceedings instituted by
Virginia to compel West Virginia to
pay judgment of more than $4,000
600 resulting from suit to collect
Virginia's old Civil War debt.
In announcing the opinion, Chief
Justice White declared that under the
constitution there is no reason why
West Virginia should not pay the
Judgment; and if no effort is made 70
meet the obligation, the Court reserv-
ed the right to appoint master to
investigate West Virginia's financial
situation and its taxable resources
with view to enforcing the judgment

The sponsors for the third Liberty
Loan campaign in this county are now
looking forward to winning a Liberty
Loan Honor Flag" before the month
is over. The honor is awarded to
every town, city, county or state which
subscribes its quota of the loan, and
there is evidence enough now to JUS
tify the belief that the county will
have secured its quota, if the present
rate of purchases continues.
One other feature of the honor
award is the privilege which is accord
ed any community to add a blue star
upon the white field of the flag every
time it increases it's subscriptions by
100 per cent of the quota. The num-
Der of stars is intended to be the meas
ure of dinstinction.

Many who suffer from baekache

does constant backache "get on the

Cut Wood Now.

Fairmont, w. Va, April 22.-When
the people of West Virginia burn wood
they save fuel to make guns and
shells, to make aeroplanes, to fire war
ships and to aid in the fight for free
dom. When people who live at some
distance from the coal mines burn
wood they conserve the energy of man
and team in hauling of that coal and
provide more coal for war needs by
using wood as fuel
The wood lot will be better for the
removal of old trees which have stop
ped making growth and of SCARED and
stunted trees. 1t is not argued that
trees which are valuable for lumber
should be cut down for wood. Leave
the thrifty trees of the better species
below ten inches in diameter for the
future crop.
These are the suggestions of the
Federal Fuel Administrator of West
Virginia to the people of the state who
can conveniently use wood as fuel.
The following table has been prepared
in this connection.
Wood seasoned IL months being es-
timaed as having fuel value of 100 per
cent.
Wood seasoned 9 months has fuel
value of 95 per cent.
Wood seasoned 6 months has fuel
value of 80 per cent.
Wood seasoned 8 months has fuel
value of 50 per cent.
Wood seasoned 0 months has fuel
value of 65 per cent.
One cord of the following woods is
equal to a ton of coal: Hickory. oak.
hard maple, beech and ash.
One cord of the following woods
equal three-fourths of ton of coal:
Soft maple and elm.
One cord of the following woods
equal one-thrid of ton of coal: Pine
hemlock, cedar, spruce and butternut

In 1914 one bushel of corn would
buy about 60 lbs. of good corn ferti-
lizer. Today that same bushel of corn
will buy about $50 lbs. of the same

fertilizer as that same bushel did in
1914. Place your order now for ferti-
lizer and lime and prepare for a good

Warning To Consumers Of Coal.

1t is earnestly urged by the United
States Fuel Administration that all
consumers of coal who can do so, shall
Immediately place with local dealers
their order for whatever coal is neces-
sary to carry them through next win
ter, so that arrangements may be
made by him to deliver the coal as
soon as possible.
Unless continuous flow of coal is
kept from the mines to the consumer
the spring and summer, serious
shortage next winter may result.
