"Smith caught a bullet in tho arm, broaking it near tho olbow, and another prisoner was wounded, but did not stop. "Tho gang then crossed tho crock nnd entorod tho brush back of Mr. Jo seph's house, where Smith wns caught a Bhort timo after by Policeman Man zoy. Ho was wading in tho crcok, and was captured without resistance;. Tim Garwood loft tho gang nnd ran in the direction of tho asylum, near which -plnco ho was captured by two 'trusties' and brought back uninjured. "Tho gang went through the timbor to tho Turner road, up which thoy started.

Whether it bo so or not, thoy cannot go far, as tho wholo country is arousod and on tho alert, so that by our noxt issuo wo hopo to record tho capturo of tho wholo gang." is city who romombor tho famous at mpt at a jail break that was mado tho prisoners at tho Oregon stato nltcntiary, Tuesday, July 3, 1883. o story of this opisodo was revived jy a friond of Tho Journal, who is in session of a copy of tho Salem Daily alk, now Tho Daily Capital Journal, ,as kindly consented to tho reprinting f it. Tho Talk sayB: "At about half past nino o'clock is morning tho pooplo of our quiet wy woro surprised by tho nppearanco f a messonger from tho ponitontiary ringing tho startling nows that an Attempt had been mado by tho prison ers at tho stato prison to ovorpower tho guards and officers and mako their scapo. Tho number that succeeded in ottlng outBido tho encloauro or stock- ado was 14, oight of whom succeeded is gaining their liberty and aro still at largo, tho remainder cithor being killed or wounded by Guards Milford Stillwater and Allio Veatch. Tho fol- wing aro tho particulars as wo learned ihem: "A plot had boen porfectod by tho iprisonors at work in Goldsmith & Low- nberg's foundry to overpower somo of ho ofllcors, nnd at a cortain signal ako a break for freedom. According- y this morning at auout nair past ight, as Warden George Collins was yoming from tho brickyard on tho east ido of tho ponitontiary to his ofilco, Fletcher, ono of tho overseers, told trim that trouble was browing among ho prisonors. As ho spoko, and whilo assing noar tho foundry, McKorn and .Old Bichamp, tho ringlcadors, rushed 'out, followed by about 30 of their tripod accomplices, who immediately soizod upon Collins and Flotcher nnd archod them in front up to a small gato on tho northwest aido of tho pris- t . ... - - ... ... . on, whore Miliord Stillwater was stand ing guard, and told tho guard that if ho shot any of them thoy -would kill Collins and Flotcher. Notwithstanding ihoso throats Stillwater pulled tho riggor, but tho gun missed firo. Run- Sing to his stand ho socurod another gun of Bridges and firod into tho erowd a3 thoy woro passing through ho gato, instantly killing ono of tho risonors named Charles Brown. At his timo Flotcher succoedod in freeing imsolf and, closing tho gato, prevented j o rest of tho prisoners from escaping. tho meantimo tho guard fired again, Wounding McKorn, ono of tho loaders, iho ball taking effect in tho lower part of the hip, just as they were entering Ho ofllco for tho purpose of securing rearms. Enraged at tho good marks- anship and tho inroads Mr. Stillwater jwns making in their ranks, Smith, ono of tho gang, attempted to cut tho throat of Warden Collins, ho having boforo threatened to do so. Mr. Go- bat, tho turnkey, observing tho act, drew his pistol and attempted to firo, but was ovorpowerod by tho convicts, but not until ho had fired ono shot, which ontorod tho wall of tho office. Mr. Gobat is an unerring marksman, and would havo killed his man had Knot his arm been thrown asido by one f tho gang. "Tho affray was now getting inter esting. Smith, realizing tho situation, grabbed a tamping iron, which had boon takon from tho foundry, from an othor prisoner, and attempted to striko tho turnkoy on tho head, but Mr. Col lins, by an almost superhuman effort, managed to got botwoon the two men just in timo to roccivo tho full weight of tho blow, thereby saving tho life of Mr. Gobat. "Tho convicts now began their search for arms, but found none, ox eopt an unloaded rifle belonging to Superintondont Stratton, and tho turn koy 's pistol, which had threo loads in it. Tho riflo was secured by Brad ahaw, tho noted desperado, who was ono of Tumor's robboro. "Stillwator was in tho meantimo keeping up tho good work, whilo in tho hall a convict namod Ben Rivers caught a shot in tho back, and his soul gently took its flight threo hours later. McKorn, another of tho Turner rob bers, whilo in the hallway, was shot by Stillwater in tho foot, but tho wound was not severe enough to bring him to terms. They now loft tho build ing by tho south doorway, and thoro encountered Mr. Veatch, ono who has a most honorable record as a guard aud marksman, but his ability was of little uso, for they kept Mr. Collins be tween him and themsolves, but as thoy passed out tho gato Veatch fired, the shot taking effect in McKern's band, carrying away tho first and second fin gers. Here they dropped Warden Col lins and took to their heels down the Sure Cure for Piles.

Tho board will bo self-supporting, nnd will havo tho power to forbid and to act againBt tho practicing of quacks, who claim to bo graduates of legalized Osteopathic institutions. Tho idea and desiro of the organization in this movo is to prohibit thoso who aro not grad uates of a legalized school of Osteop athy from representing thcmsolvos as such. Dr. J. B.

Dr. W. L.

The Kind You Have Always Bought Bears the Signature of Wffi& The man who enjoys a suggestion of his fnvorito perfume about his linen and neckwear is no longor considered a prig, whilo tho up-to-date girl is as particular in tho choico of tho frag rance which pormeatoa her clothing as sho was in tho solection of her shirt waist material or tho cut of her frock. Eeach year, howovor, ono certain per fumo has a particular vogue. Tho long popularity of tho violot's sweotnoss gnvo way last year to tho heavier odor of tho clover, followed thiB season by a decided tondoncy toward the pungent fragrance of tho carnation. This spicy odor ia obtainod from tho novelty French Mes Deliccs, and is carried also by tho lighter Ameri can porfumo, Du Barry. In spito of tho oppressive sweetness of tho oriental perfumes, of which san dal wood is invariably tho basis, thoy always enjoy n cortain voguo nmong porsona who rovol in carved toakwood and massive drapories. Ediol, Chrysis, a lasting Egyptian cologncy and Goislm rtowors, a combination of tho oriental odors, aro now nnd popular offerings. Viorono is an oriental sachot with a suggestion of violot. In mnrkod contrast to thoso heavy scents is tho exquisito delicacy of Enig ma, a blending of tho swootnoss of many flowers, as tho namo implies. It is an esppcial fnvorito with men be cause of its ovasivo fragrance Tho American housowifo has not yet learnod to appreciato tho valuo of lav ondor loaves as a moans of koeping tho household linon fresh and sweet. Eng lish women prefer tho piquant Bwoot ness of lavondor to any other scent, and thoir cupboards and chests aro al ways liberally supplied with bags of tho fino leaves. Vory pretty for this purpose aro tho flat cushions, six or oight inches squaro, in Japaneso crcpo paper, showing oriental scenes. San dal wood sticks an inch squaro and flvo inches long aro handy and useful for laying among curtains nnd draperies when thoy aro put away in tho spring, and tho fragranco will romain long after tho hangings aro nnpnckod in the fall. A splendid powdor for use in sachot s is composod of violot nnd carnation in equal parts. It has an especially deli cate odor. Anothor favorite combina tion is holiotropo and violet, and tho girl who prefers tho simplo violet scent will find tho sweetness of tho powdor moro lasting if she mixes' it with orris root. Combined sachot powders retain their fragranco longor if mixed at home. To givo a delicate fragranco to a bodico, tiny little bags made of china silk and filled with sachet should be sowed under each arm's eyo. These sachet bags also servo as padding for tho under arm seam, or for tho front of a bodice. Coat hangers covered with ailk aro filled with sachet powder and have 10 or 15 woo sachet bags dangling from long narrow ribbons on each ead. Dainty aatchets for keeping lingerie and neckwear sweet aro square cush ions of satin ftllod with three thick nesses of sheet wadding and finished around tho edge with silk cord. These aro prettiest when decorated with chil dren in Dutch costume. CHILDREN WATCHING THE WAR Great Interest Taken In SSt. Petersburg la st), Petersburg, Jnn. 12.

Somo of tho out flanking japs got right undornoath tho trco, and our machiuo guns mowed thorn down. Tho Chineso puppies lookod down and grinnod, and ono pulled off a twig nnd tried to drop it into a dead Jaffa mouth. "What happoned to thorn I don't know, as wo retired a moment later. But farther on along tho road wo camo upon a wholo crowd of childron smil ing as tho wounded mon wcro enrriod past. Ono of thorn had an artillerist's cap on his littlo lieud. I supposo tho heiijhou havo no souls and don't feel things. Or perhaps thoy didn't understand."
