The Jail bird trail has its tough foot
ing, especially when your shoes are
worn out, and the joys of overland
hiking hold little appeal when you're
hungry and afraid to stop to eat, was
the frank opinion offered by w. u.
Ralph, escaped Jail bird, arrested near
Havre Wednesday, now q prisoner IN
the county Jail here. =,
Ralph and Ben Aldrich, a 19-year-old
youth who had served "a days of a
To-day sentence for burglary, escaped
from the Lewis and Clark county jail
at Helena Friday night, hiked through
the mountains about 40 miles to Adel,
continued to Cascade, where, it is al
legged, they stole an automobile belong
ing to r. f. Bancroft and drove toward
Havre. Near Havre they drove off the
road to wait for darkness and to rest,
went to sleep and awakened to a greet
ing from Sheriff Henry Swartz of Hill
county, who had discovered the car,
recognized it as a machine wanted by
Sheriff Bob Gordon and placed the
men under arrest.
Ralph told of their experiences since
their escape from the Jail at Helena.
Both had been TRUSTEES and had been
given good treatment by the Lewis
anu SIdTh tOuhty
plenty of opportunities to escape, but
did not want to break the trust OF the
sheriff and escape when they were
honor prisoners.
Would Not Escape as Trusty
at would have been a cinch TO get
away. but it wouldn't have been square
to quit the place while I was doing the
work of a trusty, and besides it would
have cost the sheriff some money. SO
7 Just waited for a good chance and
then broke out of JAIL" Ralph said.
"Aldrich was flunky in the kitchen,
so it was easy for him to get a can
opener. We cut a hole through a tin
in the ceiling on the fourth floor, crawl
ed into the attic and went out through
the skylight, and swung off the root
with a rope. 1t was early Friday
night and ! felt as conspicuous as a red
nose sliding down that rope"
Ralph told Sheriff Gordon Thursday
that he assumed all responsibility for
taking the automobile at Cascade and
would stand the gaff' for it. He had
induced the kid" to leave the Jail and
accompany him because it was lon
some travelling alone and considered
him his guest, he said.

Blazing Kettle
Gives Firemen
Morning Workout

A kettle of doughnut grease caught
fire in the Doughnut Shop, 221 Central
avenue, early Thursday morning, neces-
stating a call to the city fire depart
ment to e~xtinguish the flames. The
fire was of short duration and did little
damage beyond the burning of the
grease.
Three gallons Of Fire Foam were
used to no avail on the burning grease.
and it required six gallons of chemicals
to put out the fire. Firemen say that
this is the first experience they have
had in using Fire Foam when it had
no effect on the fire. 1t failed 10

lone SHUT OUT BY
HEPPNER SUNDAY

A perfect day and an extra fine ex-
hibition of ball playing made the
game on Gentry field Sunday, be-
tween Heppner and lone, choice bit
of entertainment for large crowd
Of fans. In retaliation for the drub-
bing Heppner received at the hands
of lone two weeks before, Heppner
added three professional ball players
to her lineup and came back strong,
shutting the Egg City lads out in a
2 to 0 score.
1t was not pitchers game, though
hits were few. Heppner got only one
hit off Rocky, while lone got six off
Moeller. Rocky was little "leary"
of Heppners professionals, however,
and walked them nearly every time
they came to bat. The ball was struck
often, but there was always a man
on deck to get it, and he knew what
to do with it. S. Hopkins, Heppners
third baseman from Portland, made
both tallies for the locals, and Ed
wards, professional first sacker, got
their only hit.
The lone lads, all local talent and
longtime residents of the Egg City,
played professional ball. Dutch
Rietmann on first and Werner Riet-
mann on third showed all the class
Heppner's professionals did in like
positions. 1t is also thought by many
that Arch Cochran, who received for
lone, handled himself just as we'll as
did Gleason, Heppner's catcher who
played ball many years in the big
leagues. Few errors by either side
made the game most enjoyable for
the fans.
