.• The jail is located away frori|
the''business centre of the town, ou
a "two story building, the lower
story, the jail-proper, being built
of stone, the other story being of
frame and is occupied by the
shieriff as a-residencfe. There are
three cells on the north side of the
bui'ding, opening into a main cor
ridor. Smith was allowed the free
dom of this corridor, which was
lighted by two windows, well pro.
tected by iron bars, bedded in the
utone masonry. The doors lead
ing into the cell rooms are of wood
and are about' two feet in widf.h
and are hung .by, long strap hinges
bolted with four bolts to the door.
In some, manner Smith managed
to get this hijige unbolted and was
.us^asapryAud: a picl^ to dig
Qut tjie.niasonry..and, get .out ..one
iron rod running ..lengthwise of
the window. He had also secured
^knife-'iirmmie- -Skanndr'-andv.'had
cut awgy ^he wood casing through
which thie 'rods runs, sb that when
tiie masonry had b£en fofu away
the rod would come out.
Smi% had, placed his blankets
under the wfndow to deaden the fall
of the stone.' It' must have token
some time to. remove the masonry.
There was a large hole dug out by
tiie prisoner and t^e rod once out
it was fin easy matter to escape
through the window. ^-..jg**
Smith has been in jail since last
March and his trial was set for
the latter part of October. The'
man is desperate and will give his
partners a long ihiue. He left
hit hat andi shoes ill the jail, leav
lol
morning going
down tite river a run.

accused was one the most brutal

It is important to note that care
ful observers conclude that what
ever may go up in price owinp to
the great demand for everything,
food is bound to come down. Crops
are abundant everywhere. The
corn crop, which a year ago was a
partial failure in the corn growing
states, is a success this year. Po
tatoes will be lower this year than
last, and so on through the long
list of farm products. Our farmers
who want high prices for their
products may rest assured that
they will be able to get prices that
will fully remunerate them 'for
their labor and while there is not
going to. be any slump in prices,
yet there is no reason to look for
the soaring figures which tend ..to
make the farmers extremely happy,
but the consumer correspondingly
unhappy. The prediction is made,
and it looks reasonable, that the
products of the beef packers will
slightly $o down too, and if this if
%e .c^it means that the value
of eattie on the hoof will corres
pondingly decline.—Mandan Pi

a record of so many birds killed,
