Chicken Had Unusual Dressing.

A roasted chicken enabled two prisoners to escape from the county jail at New Brunswick, N. J., despite the inspection of their cells every ten minutes and the armed guards who surrounded the building. To outward appearances the fowl, which was sent to the prison by a brother of the men, was brown, appetizing and Innocent. It was learned later that, instead of bread crumbs and spices, its interior held saws and files. When a keeper made one of his inspections the men were snoring loudly on their cots. Ten minutes later he found that they disappeared by way of the window from which they had wrenched the bars. Still later the brother who brought the chicken; and his high powered automobile, were also founded be gone. b
