Details have reached hero of the escape from the Chester , III. , prison of Joseph S. Hnrdln , the Ccntralla , III. , train robber , sent up for twenty years. It seems that Hnrdln , from the time ho stepped into the penitentiary at Chester , began to cultivate friendship with the trusty convicts who were employed as cart drlveis. Ho became a fast friend of one of these , nnd yesterday the cart driver permitted him to jump Into the vehicle and , lying down on the bottom of the bed , the tiusty driver loaded the cart with clay , completely coverIng - Ing the form of the train robber. When the cart was loaded the trusty drove out of the gates of the penitentiary and , arriving at the river bank , where n dump had been estab lished for the purpose of strengthening the lovce , Hnrdln was dumped with the clay down the embankment nnd into the river , and it Is thought that by prearraiipoinent there was a skiff near at hand into which ho Jumped and was rowed beyond the reach and sight of the authorities. < Hcr | > < meird tliu ( iimril.

Each has made an enviable reputation ns the head of n com pany , nnd In his respective line of work c. hardly bo equaled. There w 111 bo much In terest manifested in their combined appear ances , especially as the > have with them n remaikably strong company and elaborate scenery. The repertory has been arranged as follows : Wednesday night and Thurs day matinee , "Tho Lion's Mouth , " a lomnn- tic play by Henry Guy Carleton ; Thursday night and Saturday matinee , "Francesca du Rimini , " with Mr. James In his great char acter of Pepe , the Jester , and Mr. Waidc In the Into Lawrence Barrett's old role of Lanclotto ; Friday night , "Othello , " nnd Sat urday night , "Julius Caesar. " All the scenery for each piece is carried by the organisation. The supporting company numbers thirty pee ple. Boyd's theater will bo occupied four nights , beginning next Sunday , by the successful naval drama , "Tho Ensign. " The play scored n veritable triumph hero last season and will doubtless be warmly welcomed back. Its historical features are deeply Interesting and the skillful blending of familiar char acters In our history with a pretty romance ot the civil war period render the pioductlon doubly meritorious. The vast equipment of scenery seems almost extravagant , but of course makes the pioductlon additionally praiseworthy , nnd doubtless the engagement in this city will pro\o ono of the season's events. The better class of theater goers are now showing a lively and Intelligent Interest in that form ot enteitainment known ns the " \arlety show , " nnd a closer ni.n."alntanco with Its merits will glvo It a still gi cater popularity with them. There has never been any question as to the enteitulnlng quali ties or the genuine artistic skill that Is so often tthown In It , but Its surroundings have not heretofore been agieeablo to the fastidi ous amusement seeker. Now that It conies to the best theaters nnd modifies Its per formance to meet the desltes of their clients. that unpleasant feature of the \.ulety show need not bo learned.

As early ns the summer of 1SS9 the resi dents of Walnut Hill conceived the Idea that they wanted the streets In front of their property grnded , and In July , 1800 , S. D. Mercer nnd others petitioned the city coun cil , asking that nine streets be brought to an established grade the work to bo per formed under the threc-llfths clause of the city charter and without cost to the city. A few weeks Inter the final ordinance was passed and In December of that year the con tract was awarded to KaU & Callahan at the rate of 11 % cents per cubic yard. The next yenr the woik was completed and the coun cil passed upon the final estimates from the oiilco of the Hoard of Public Works , aggre gating the sum of $21),168. ) This tax was car ried to the books of the cltj ticasuror and nn nttempt was made to collect the taOn March 12 , 18)2 ! ) , and about the tlmo of the tax becoming delinquent , C. D. Hutehlnson and a number ot the other icsldcnls nnd prop erty owners In Walnut Hill Joined In n peti tion which was filed in the district court nsklng tlmt the city bo restrained from col lecting the tax , alleging that the city rhnnged the grade of the streelo without first securing the consent of the petitioners who originally signed for the grading. At the time a temporaiy restraining order was granted and the matter was hung up until now. In defending the suit the city contends that on the whole the proceedings were regular ; that the property owners all know of the change of grade and that the work was being performed under the terms ot the original ordinance ; that they sat back and watched the grading , kicking only when the grading was finished nml when they were nsked to pay for the tame , which was nothing but an honest debt , conn acted with their full knowledge and Consent City Attorney Connell In speaking of the matter stated that It was "Imply a case wheio some wealthy property owners had got permission to grade the streets in fiont of their property , and after the work vas performed they wanted to sneak out ot payment , leaving the city to hold the sack. 1'omil linnli TionliU4. When C. W. Davis of this city died , on Juno 1 , 1S87 , he was the owner of a large jlock of stock In the First National bank of Ponca , this state.
