ATTEMPT AT JAIL - BREAKING.
Novel Way Adopted Ity Some Prisoners
to Gum Freedom.
This morning while Deputy Sheriff
Kelly was engaged at his desk he noticed
that one of the prisoners was exceeding
ly cheerful, and strode from one Bide of
the jail to the other, singing songs and
making as much noise aB he possibly
could; at the same time trying hard not
to arouse the suspicion of the sheriff.
Although Mr. Kelly was very busy with
his books, he could not help recalling an
incident that occurred three years ago,
when a prisoner became equally mirth
ful and made a like play while his con
federates were making an attempt to
dig their way out of jail.
While he was thinking this matter
over, John Fitzgerald, the jailer, came
in, and he was asked to go inside and
see if evervthiui; was all riuht. Mr
j-uzgeruiu uiu so, aim upon entering
soon saw the cause of all the singinti. I

Mr. Kelly suspected what they were
doiug, they would, at tho very, least,
have made a thorough investigation us
to the structure of the jail wall, if they
did not succeed in gaining their liberty.
As a consequence of their folly they
are now confined in their respective
cells.
Little Alice Wells i)i owned.
This morning Win. Michell received a

also that they would arrive in Hub city
with the remains tomorrow morning.
The family of Mr. Wells had made
The Dalles their home until last full,
when they moved to Prosser thut'they
might be with Mr. Wells, who was thbre
superintending the cure of his sheep.
No particulars of tho accident were re
ceived, but its announcement alono was
sufficient to sadden the hearts of the
many JriendB of Mr. and Mrs. Wells in
this city.
Little Alice was a pretty little girl of
about G years, particularly bright and
vivacious, and being the only daughter,
her loss will he doubly felt.
