Eugene GOSHEN PICNIC. Guard .JUNE 14 THE PENITENTIARY ESCAPE. Tbe harvest of death that oon- viote Tracey and Merrill left behind them in tbeir een*a>ionel escape from tbe Oregon stat-» penitentiary Monday morning, and tbe ease with which tbe guards mi seed the men as they got a ladder and Kaled the prison-yard wall in plain view and easy rifle shot, are •uggeetiye. Tbe guards can’t eboot, •I m wore too nervous to eboot at that kind of game. We ouggMl in oam of tbe capture of the thugs that tbey be given guard duty Three dead men under each exciting circumstanoM is sufficient evidence •• to tbeir ability to handle tbe rifle. Armed aa they are, and deeperale •a men may be from tbe knowledge that tbeir livM are certain forfeit In mm of oapture, there io sure to be more lorn ot life if tbeir pursuers crowd them too close. Hunting •noh men !• not • pleaaant job. Their lack of knowledge ot the country will militate againat tbeir finally getting completely away, etill the season of year ia greatly in tbeir favor. Tbey oan oroM tbe country in any direction, tbe weather permits tbeir remaining or alMping in any plaoe of hiding, while tbey may procure food from gardens at night without risk of being obaerred or located. Of oouree they had their plane laid aa to the oouree tbey would pursue when onoe outside. And men aa oool as tbey proved them- Mlvee to be daring tbe trying mo ments of eeoape are not liable to loee their beads now that tbey are free men. They may be oaugbt and made to expiate their terrible crime on tbe gallows, but it seems to us tbe chances are against such a desired consummation ot justice. Incidentally it msy be remsrked that they are good men to leave alone unleee tbe pursuer oan catch them napping or off tbeir guard. Ordinarily men would be greatly excited under euoh oircumaUnoee, but tbey shot aa it shooting at a target. And thay got their man every time. SPECIAL SALE Great Preparation! Belog Made Mrs. J.
