THE NEW WARDEN

The new Warden told him point
blank though that he would not de-
prive him of any privilege within the
prison but that his pilgrimages out
side the walls would have to cease
as he was not entitled, to such priv
ileges that men who had been there
ten and fifteen years could not re-
ceve. Even such compromise
spelt defeat to Bob. One evening
shortly after Bob was missed from
his cell at the last count, nine
o'clock he being excused from all
other counts, and it afterwards de-
veloped that under the cover of
darkness he had hid out and climbed
over the wall to freedom which id
not last long however as yithin q
couple of days he was caught and
back in his cell. Even then he was
not placed in the "bull pen" as was
customary, being merely locked in
his own cell.

expired he lost his political lob
overall shop. He immediately be-
gan refenge for what he took as his
dethronement of power. To further
his end he had to gain and take INTO
his confidence others, chief of whom
there was a real bad man named
Perry" who had once escaped the
moose and twice escaped from state
prisons in other states. Perry was
genuine bad man and one who had
taken several desperate chances to
escape from Marquette. A more
desperate man there was not in Mar
quette Prison. Bob confided in Per-
ry hold ng up a supposed chance to
escape which brought the yhole
hearted support of Perry. With
this pair others augmented them
selves.
THE GREAT TRAGEDY

the writer was yithin a few feet of
the entire tragedy same i'll be re-
lated. as It comes back to the men,
ory of one who has tried to forget
the most gruesome sight ever VT.
messed by him.
As was the custom on Sunday
morning the prison populace was sit
ting in the chapel enjoying the reg
ular moving pictures yhen within
the darkened hall and but few
seats Immediately in front of the
WI ter, some figures moved in the
dark and. when opposite the writer
to the right one of them blurted out
c.
you are dead birds" The Warden
and his deputy as was theft custom
were sitting in easy plush seats to
the ght Of the auditorium and With
in few feet of the writer. 1t was
the assailants' purpose to steal upon
the unsuspecting Warden in the
darkness, stab him to death and re.
turn to their seats before the lights
were turned on, at least that was
Bob's idea. Perry thought however
that 1t meant a jail-delivery and
that the Warden would be forced to
lead them out of the prison.

This however was due to lack Of evil
dence and not fact. The loss still
remained. simultaneously the death
of Warden Russell occurred and dep
uty-warden Catlin was temporarily
in charge of the prison and it was
due to his iron-clad rule and square
ness that he had become known as
square-deal dep" a cognomen that
he justly deserved. Mr.. Catlin, for
that was his name, insisted upon a
thorough investigation and house
hold cleaning and IL any crookedness
was going on in the front office he
insisted upon it being purged thor
oughly.

WANTED THEM DISMISSED

In doing SO he insisted upon the
dismissal of every official in the
front office. Before the investigation
had gone far, the newly elected Gov
ernor, Mr.. A. j. Groosbeck, appointed
Mr.. Catlin Warden. However Mr..
Catlin would not take full possession
of the front office and administra-
tive end of the business until the
investigation had been completed
and confined his efforts to the dis
ciplinarian end, leaving the admin
istrative end to the public account
ants who had. been placed in charge
by the prison board of control After
a few months of such administrator
the board appointed Mr.. Anderson,
one of the accountants, as chief
clerk, responsible only to the board
until it's findings were complete. 1t
was Mr.. Catlin's desire, possibly
urged upon him through the moral
support of Mrs Catlin, that secure
a front office appointment and while
he had the authority TO place me
there he did not care to do so with.
out the approval of Mr.. Anderson.

AN UNEXPECTED OPPORTUNITY

E.
The opportunity however came un-
expectedly for both of ns. The girl
stenographer had been on her yaca-
ton and Mr.. Anderson had an accu-
mulated lot of correspondence that
he wished to clean up and, suggested
to the warden that they engage an
additional stenographer for few
days till the regular one returned.
The warden told him that he had
young man inside the prison who
could do the work quite as satisfac
torily If he wished, to try him. The
chief clerk assented and / was sent
for. BY that time / had gained, the
good wishes of most of the officials
and when the Hall-master came after
me he told me to dress up in my
Sunday best as I was going into the
front office to work, something that
was unheard OF at that time. 1 hur-
riedly dressed and was speedily pas
sed through the gates to the front
office where in the hall the warden
was waiting for me. He told me
that the chief clerk had some steno-
graphic work for me to do temporar-
lily but for me to do my best as it
meant a possibility of my remaining
there for good. This / had all in
tentions of doing anyway / took
the clerks dictation for couple Of
hours, described and transcribed in
quick order and returned the COM
pleted work to the clerks desk and
offered to return to my cell when
the clerk was so agreeably surprised
with the quickness and quality of
my work that he asked me to do
a little billing for him If i knew
how. Certainly ] knew how and did
that work in equal dispatch with the
result that what started as tempo
rary work continued as permanent
A NEW DESK FOUND

The regular stenographer soon re-
turned and a new desk was found
for me and as fast as / showed cap

work same was assigned to me with

|NSTALLS NEW
 F|RE-BOXES

The new system of fire-alarm boxes for Ketchikan is now being installed under the supervision of Joe Diamond, fire chief. Twenty seven modern boxes have been pur- purchased by the city council at cost of $4,7OO to give the city am pei fire protection.
 Ketchikan believes that an ounce protection is worth a pound of re- grets and thousands of dollars lost. Petersburg does not even have bell alarm system which would in d. ate whether a fire was on front street, Paulsbo or Timbuctoo. It might be we'll to start this new year off by making fire districts aed bell tolls to designate which district fire is in. A few minutes delay will oft times mean the dit ference between a minor loss and a heavy one.
