ESCAPES BY WAY OF WINDOW.

Prisoner Leaps from Third Floor and Evades the Officer. Albert Brewer, a plumber claiming Chicago as his home, was arrested at Muncie on charges preferred by Miss Sarah Smith, of Ladoga, Ind. Deputy Marshal Snodgrass, of that place, arrived later and took charge of the prisoner, who asked that he be allowed to go to*the Madison Hotel and secure some clothing. This the officer permitted, and while the latter was waiting below Brewer jumped from the third-story Window and escaped.
