open on Good Friday.
Both the matinee and evening per

were well patronized, the Kdward

the first opportunity to overhaul them,
now that pleasant weather seems to
be on haa.

PRISONERS ATTEMPTED ESCAPE.
George P&tenauda and James Nicolet
ti Break Away From Officers But
Art Recaptured,
George Patenaude and James Nlco
lettl, two prisoners sentenced by
Judge Shumway during the March
term of court to serve terms in the
state reformatory at Cheshire, made
a sensational and nearly successful
attempt to escape Friday morning In
this city while they were being put on
to the morning exprees for Hartford.
The men have been held at Brooklyn
Jail since they were sentenced last
month, the sentence to the reforma
tory being for an indefinite period.
They were in charge of Sheriff John
O. Fox and Deputy Sheriff George F.
Holbrook when they made their des
perate break for liberty. The men had
been brought up from Brooklyn Jail
in an automobile.
When the prisoners and the escort
ing sheriff and his deputy were en
tering a car of the express while it
was standing at the local station.
Sheriff Fox at the head of the line, the
prisoners following and Deputy Hol
brook bringing up the rear, Patenaude
and Nlcoletti turned and made a
break out through the vestibule,
shaking off their handcuffs, which they
had managed to unlock with a piece of
steel while they were in the auto
mobile on their way up from the Jail.
Once out of the car Nlcoletti turn
ed south and, running at top speed,
made a strenuous effort to outdis
tance the sheriff and a score of on
lookers that immediately took up the
chase. Nlcoletti picked out familiar
ground for Sheriff Fox to chase him
over, the part of the city where the
sheriffs place of business is located,
and the fleeing fellow was soon over
taken and again placed in custory.
Patenaude made his break for liberty
In the opposite direction from which
Nlcoletti ran, Deputy ShlrtTf Holbrook
and all of those who were active and
had not gone with Sheriff Fox's party
going along on his trail. Patenade ran
In behind the A. and P. store on Elm
street ducked Into the cellar and se
creted himself behind somo boxes, but
he was pulled out and taken back to
the station.
The break of the prlsoneia and the
chase stirred up a flare of excitement
In less time than it takes to set it
down. There was plenty of uncall
ed for, but thoroughly appreciative as
sistance from those about the station
in helping rund up tho runaways, who
were at liberty only a very few min
utes. While the chase was on. however.
the train that was to take the officers
and prisoners had gone on Its way,
so NIcolletl and Patenaude were kept
In the agent's room at the station un
til the 10.30 train came along, the
wait bellng less than an hour.
Patenaude explained how easy it
had been for him to pick the lock of
the handcuffs that the prisoners had
shaken off and how he had accom
plished it with a little piece of steel,
which he afterwards picked up near
the station at the place where he had
thrown it away and showed V to
those who heard him tell his story.
According to what Patenaude told
some people he had unlocked the cuffs
soon after the machine which brought
them here had left the JaiL but the
prisoners had decided after gauging
the speed of the machine not to Jump
out as they had at first planned, on
account of fear of serious injury. They
finally decided to wait until they got
to Putnam and then try their luck
which was not in real first class work
ing order Good Friday, as subsequent
developments demonstrated.
Nlcoletti is one of the pair of Black
Hand men who sent a lotter to An
tonio Vito, the Thompson contractor,
demanding that he leave S 1,000 at a
designated place in the nearby town
under the pain of denth If !i failed
to carry out the order. Angelo Di
Angelts, Nieolettl's partner in the af
fair, was given a joil sentence when
the two pleaded guilly to the offer.so
mentioned last month, but Nlcoletti
