THE RE VIEW

OUT OF THE CAGE.

Four Prisoners Escape From Jail by Breaking Iron Bars. Last Monday night at 7:30 o'clock Judge Harney delivered his instructions to the jury in the case of the State of Indiana vs. Thomas Lyons, charged with stealing cutlery from the store of Mount fe Nobes, at Darlington. Immediately thereafter Lyons, accompanied by Deputy Sheriff Brannon and Read Hanna, returned to the jail and was turned loose in the big corridor. Hanna was left standing talking to Lyons through the bars, while Sheriff Bible and Brannon walked back to the court house to perform some duties. Hanna remained some fifteen minutes and then returned to the court house to hear the verdict of the jury, if any. At 8:15 Deputy Sheriff Henry, who was putting up his horse in the jail barn, saw some men jumping from the southwest window of the jail and ran rapidlv to the side street. Running hastily to the court house he notified Sheriff Bible and in a few moments a large crowd was at the jail. An ugly hole in the southwest window explained it all. The birds had flown that is, four of them Tom Lyons and Lew Miller, the Darlington Burglars Tom Lewis, the negro who ro&bed the Vandalia station, and Frank Clark, a plain drunk. Two others were in the corridor at the time and refused to take advantage of the opportunity, Julius McGuffin, of New Ross, and a half crazod negro. The uien had broken a strong steel bar from the railing around the rotary upstairs and with this had deliberately pried the bars out of the southwest window in the corridor, breaking them their united force being thrown agai.ist the iron lever. Three window bars were snapped off,' and then they deliberately tied a blanket around another and quietly lowered themselves to the ground. Tho work of breaking the-bars of course created an awful noise, but this the wiley rascals drowned by one of their number turning the rotary, When this rotary is in operation it is almost deafening and can be heard a square away. Mrs. Bible was aroused at one time by the awful din and crash, and going into the hall her suspicions were allayed by seeing Mr. Hanna talking to Lyons through the grated door. A person on the inside can hear nothing but the grinding of the rotary when tho boys "go riding in the merry-go-round" as they call it.

All efforts to get McGuffin or the negro to tell what they know of the matter were futile. Both declared they knew nothing, but of course this is untrue, for they'were the parties, probably, who turned the rotary while the bars were being broken. Mr. Bible at once dispatched men in every direction. Postals were printed and sent everywhere. He also offered a reward of $200 each for the capture of Lyons and Miller and $20 each for tho other two. Not a stone has been left unturned to apprehend the fugitives and the search will be vigorously x'rosecuted until all or most of them have been captured.

No charge of carelessnes can be laid at the door of Sheriff Bible. He allowed his prisoners no more liberties than any of his predecessors did. It is one of those unfortuate circumstances over whicn we have no control. The jail building held an old campaigner in the man Lyons, such as had never before been within its walls. In fact his method pronounced him an old jail breaker. He could not be classed among ordinary criminals. He was a thoroughly educated man, with a very pleasant appearance. With the pencil he is an artist, as many of his caricatures on the jail walls will testify. His penmanship is beautiful and he has literally covered the walls with such sayings as, "He who enters here leaves hope behind," immediately followed by, "The only cure propounded for the above is to employ Hanna & Hanna, attorneys at law.7' Others read: "God paves all His pity for the proud," "He who builds lowest builds deepest," "There is no placo like home," "Heed is violence." An excellent likeness of a wine cup with the traditional serpent creeping over the brim was among the caricatures and beneath it were the words, "Social cup of abomination. How the native character of the heart is changed." In another place ho pictures a meeting of the farmers' congress and has placed the faces of well known men on tho bodies of cows, hogs, sheep, etc., while prominently in tho midst sits a large bull dog label ed, •"Farmers' purchasing agent."

Emma'8 Troubles.

Miss Emma Connor, probably the most widely advertised lady in tho State through her "valor and patriotism" in defense of a flag that a "half hundred rough and disloyal hands" attempted to haul down from lior school houso dome, was in the city Tuesday consulting with W. T. Whittington in regard to bringing suit for libel against one, James Stark, a farmer residing in £Mark township. Miss Connor claims that Stark haB caused to be circulated a scandalous and ridiculous rumor to the effect that she had showe an over fondness for one of her pupils, Bertie Spencer, aged twelve years that she had taken the lad to Boone county and with him indulged in immoral practices. Miss Connor claims that it was not an infatuation she felt for the boy, but pity and sympathy that tho lad was an invalid, Buffering from spinal trouble, tho care of whom fell heavily upon the hands of his widowed mother that on two occasions she took him to a physician at Roachdale, and, finally, at the mother's request, accompanied him on a visit to an aunt in Boone county. While she admits that she and Bertie occupied the same bed at thiB relative's home it was made necessary through the request of tho boy's aunt, owing to the cramped condition of the rooms and a scarcity of beds. "Isn't it ridiculous," said Miss Connor to a

REVIEW man, "to imagine that anything wrong could exist between a woman 37 years of age and a mere child of 12, especially when the child had been under that woman's tutorage for a long time, and whose feeble .condition had enlisted a feeling akin to a mother's love. Jim Starke has vowed that I should never teach another school in this or any other county, and he has resorted to this method to carry out his infamous plans. I am a poor, unprotected woiiian and the man who is so low as to attempt to besmirch my charactcr by vile falsehoods is unworthy the name of man." Mrs. Spencer, mother of tho boy, said that while Emma had caused Bertie to disobey her, and that she felt aggrieved at her for so doing, yet she was perfectly satisfied that nothing wrong had ever occurred between him and Emma. Miss Emma says sho will prosecute Starke and will begin proceedings at once if ho does not make a public apology, including in which is to appear a general denial of all statements heretofore made by him against her character. If this case should come to trial it will no doubt prove a juicy one and a drawing card.

That Soldier's State Home.

There is no reason in the world why the new Soldiers State Home should not be located right here at Crawfordsville. Many neighboring cities are hustling for it in earnest and somebody will get it when the Committee meets on Juno 2G. A little land, a little energy and a little read money will bring the prize our way. The committee has already expressed a preference for our town on account of its healthy location, beautiful building sights and the moral atmosphere surrounding us. A little effort will secure the Home. If it comes here the city as well as the whole county will bo benefitted. Spoaking of its advantages a gentleman sets them beautifully forth in the following article to the Lafayette Leader: "The proposed State Soldiers' Home, if located hero, means a town of at least one thousand inhabitants, who will not bo in competition with laborers, mechanics or merchants. The United States appropriates $100 for each inmate, the Grand Army of the Republic will do its part, and we may safely count on the State doing something. It is estimated that at least one hundred and fifty thousand dollars will be spent in this locality, each year, for the maintainance of the inmates, to Bay nothing of the amount that the many thousand excursionists will leave here, during the "one or two days' sojourn. Every hotel mau, restaurant man, livery man. cigar dealer, saloon keepor, dry goods man, hat store man, grocer, wholosalo dealer, farmer, produce dealer, furniturd dealer, manufacturer, clothing dealer, and, in fact, every producer or exchanger in this locality will bo immensely benefitted in a business way. Thon why not everybody put thoir shoulders to tho wheel and secure this establishment, which will bo worth more to the county than any three manufacturing establishmens located here?"

Affirmed.

Tho case o£ Clow & Son, of Chicago, against John S. Brown and others, officers of tho old Water Works Company which was decided against the plaintiff by the Montgomery county court has been affirmed by tho Supreme Court. A rehearing will bo asked by Clow fe Son. Judge Miller, who rendered tho decision, states that in an action against directors of a corporation by creditors for failure to colloct the capital stock of the corporation, it was not qrror to reject oral evidence concerning the issuing of stock to other parties where there was a written contract, that being tho best evidenco of the purpose and circumstances Under which the stock was issued. 2. Statement of an officer of the corporation as to the cost of its plant made before the Board of Equalization is not competent evidence in such action.
