During the afternoon he was turned Into the corridor of the Jnll with the other prisoners while waiting for the 5:30 train on which he was taken barn to Boise. About 4 o'clock Deputy Funk was In some manner attracted to the lull and on investigation It was found that Lawrence had been trying to tun nel through the brick wall, on the east side of the room. He had gotten on top of one of tho cells an that side and with the use of a flatlron and a spike, was making considerable head way. The spike was one which held the sewer pipe in place on the wall and the convict managed to pull It out. Tho flatlron had boon given the prisoners to use In ironing their wash ing. ...... The brick wall of -the couuty Jail is 21 Inches thick, and In order to get through Lawrence would have been forced to do considerable work. How ever, he was making headway, and had he not been discovered by the deputies might have gotten out In time. When his trick was found he was locked safely Inside a cell and kept there until the arrival of the deputy warden at 5 o'clock.

I have read an article In your Issue of the 2Sd, entitled, VOld Ceme tery Problem Again," and as my name is connected therewith, I wish to reply briefly, stating the part I took in the matter, and to deny em phatically that there was an act of desecration on. my part An act of desecration Involves Intent, and I deny that I had any intention of firing the grass within the grounds. On the day of the fire. I had burned off the fox-tall grass around my horn place, as many others about the city have done, and as It burned rather slowly and was easily con trolled, I decided to burn off the heavy growth of fox-tall along the edges of the cemetery sidewalk, and on my premises adjoining, and had with me an old rug, saturated with water, thinking by this means to easily control the burning. At one point, however, sparks were blown into the tall wild grass near the fence, from thence spreading rapidly through the grounds, although I and others worked hard to prevent It. The tall grass In the grounds was a constant source of dnnger, as likely to get on fire at night or during a high wind, or In the event of children playing there, might easily endanger life. This Is said, not In extenuation at all, but as a statement of fact, and I regret exceedingly having caused an act wholly unintended. H. F. JOHNSON. Idaho Attorney Coming.
