LEWIS COUNTY DEPUTY

Garrison, KY. Thursday agout 9
p. m. some unknown person fired a
shot at L. D. McCalley, deputy sheriff,
who is doing guard duty for the c. &
o. at the pump house here. Mr.. Nc
Galley and VIM. Skidmore were sitting
On bench just outside the pump
house and Henry Waring was sitting
on a wheel-barrow nearby. A train
was passing and the shot was fired
from beyond the far side of the train
They saw the flash of the gun but were
unable to tell who used it, because the
train obstructed their view. The bullet
lodged in the wall of the pump house
near McCalley's head.
1t is supposed the gunman was some
one who "had it in" for McCalley be-
cause of his work in pursuing viola
tors Of the prohibition laws. Mr. Mccall
ley got in touch with Sheriff Lykins
and tried to get bloodhounds in order
to trace the gunman but found it i'm.
possible to get them.

TURNKEY DUPED
BY PRISONER, WHO
ESCAPES FROM JAIL
julius Tillory, Serving Term for
Moons Inning, Escapes from Local
Jail Through Main Doorway As
Turnkey Answers Call

julius Tillory, colored, serving
term of thirty days and fine OF one
hundred dollars and costs, escaped
from the Mason county Jail Thursday
night at about 1890 o'clock using
very slick method of getting Turnkey
Gaskins out of his way.
T1llory on Thursday served out his
jail sentence and had said he was go
ing to pay out the one hundred dollar
fine Friday. The grand jury few
days ago returned an indictment
against him for cutting and woundinS
with intent to kill and the returning
OF this indictment seemed to cause him
much worry as he had expected to gain
his freedom Friday.
The prisoner had been sick for some
time and had been taking course OF
medicine prescribed by the jail physi-
clan. At about 1890 O'Clock Thursday
night he called Turnkey Tom Gaskins
asking him to bring him some medl-
cine. The turnkey left the office un-
occupied and entered the jail through
tho ~" door. which cannot be locked
from the inside. All Of the prisoners
on both floors we're locked in the Bull
Pens" and the Turnkey thought there
was no danger. When he reached the
second floor Bull Pen" where TIL
lork was thought to be locked up, he
found the pen unlocked and Tillory
gone.
The officer thinks that after the pris-
oner called to him, he left the second
floor and hid himself in the main cor
ridor so that when the officer passed
through the corridor on his way to the
second floor, he slipped through the
~" door and into the Office and clear
OF the jail.
A search was made Thursday night
and Friday but no trace of the missing
man was found. Jailor Wheeler offers
reward OF twenty-five dollars for the
arrest and return OF Tillery.
