The Pioneers "Prairie Bunk -

The necessity of finding a more
convenient and comfortable place
than the ground upon which to sleep
produced the ''prairie bunk This
one legged bedstead, now piece of
furniture of the past, was improvised
by the pioneer in a unique manner.
A forked stake was driven into the
ground at a proper distance for the
corner of the room and upon it's poles,
usually of hickory, were laid reach
ing from each wall. These poles
where they touched the walls rested
in the openings between the logs or
were driven into auger holes. Upon
these poles Stats of clapboard were
placed, or linden bark was interWov-
en- from pole to pole. Sometimes an
old fashioned cord bed" was made
by using basswood bark for the cord.
On this framework the housewife
spread her straw tick or piled the
luxurious mound of her home made
feather bed. Such a sleeping place
was usually known as a ''prairie
bedstead,' but sometimes it was call
ed "prairie rascal"

TAX RESOLUTION NOT DECIDED.
Governor May Veto Measure if Pass
ed by General Assembly.

Columbia, Jan. 30.-The eterna
question of taxes has not yet been
settled and neither has the PROPOSE
ton to extend the time for paying
these taxes which has so far caused
more trouble in the general assembly
than any other question. Both
branches have adopted resolutions
extending the time, the house pro-
viding for a sliding scale of penalties
of 1 per cent. in January, per cent
in February and per cent. in March,
and the senate for only 1 per cent
for the entire time from January l
to April l. but Z per cent. after
April l.
The matter of a compromise is now
in free conference and it is believed
that the will of the senate will have
to give in considerably before the
house will be satisfied.
While the question is still in the
air it is being talked around that
the governor will take the bill by the
horns and veto any resolution eX-
tending the time for paying taxes
without penalties. The governor is
said to be against the plan where nc
penalties are provided, as it is most
likely to seriously hurt the credit OF
the state and at the same time be
unfair to the SO per cent. or more
of the people who have paid their
taxes.
Comptroller General Duncan is
also said to be against such plan
and a large number of county treas
urers have pointed out that to delay
the payment of taxes much longer
will seriously cripple the counties.

BURN WAY OUT OF JAIL.
Four Boys Gain Liberty-Three Are
Captured:

Laurens, Jan. 23.-Four white
boys who had been held at the coun-
ty jail for some days on different
charges burned their way to liberty
while the sheriff was in Columbia on
official business. Three of the young
prisoners have been recaptured.
The names of the boys and the
charges against them are as follows:
Floyd Outzs, housebreaking and lar
ceny near Kinard, Leonard Garner,
housebreaking and larceny at Lydia
Mill, near Clinton; Ed Finley and An
sci HoltzsclaW escaped prisoners from
the refermatory at Florence.
The escape from the Laurens jail
was made by burning a hole in the
ceiling of the room in which they
were incarcerated, and through this
exit they made their way to the top
and there broke out the skylight,
passed out on the roof and completed
the escape by sliding down the light
ming rods at the side Of the Jail build
ing. The sleet and snowstorm was
raging, thus giving the boys good
opportunity to carry out their little
enterprise unnoticed and undisturb-
ed. Outzs and Finley were found in
freight car ready to leave town
when the train pulled out, without
concern as to what direction or sched-
ule. Holtzclaw was caught at Clin-
ton and is back in jail, while Gar
ner is still at large. 1t is stated
that he had been paroled after serv-
ing a year of three-year sentence
in the state penitentiary. An officer
from Florence came up and carried
his two charges back to the reform
atory.
