CART1OL.TON , Mo. , April 11.-At Si0 :
o'clock this evening the notorious Taylor
brothers , condemned murderers of the Mocks
family , broke from the county jail. George
Taylor made his escape , but Bill was retaken -
taken , and is again behind the bars in the
jaIl , In which the two brothers were to
have been hanged together on April 30.
The escape was made by their breaking off
a bar from the vest side of. their cell anti
making their exit through the garret to
the root , and letting themselves down to
tile ground by means of pieces of hose which
hail been used In clecning the celia. Juet
as Bill lied reached the ground , teputy Shier-
iff Cummings' little girl heard a noise and
gave the alarm , and before he could make
his escape complete , Deputy Shelton covered
him with a gun and PUt him back Into a
cell , It. L. Cunningham , charged with corn-
phlclty In the murder of 01 Ecton a few ( lays
since , also atternptefto escape , but failed.
Excitement Is high , and a large posse has
gone in eli directions in pursuit of George ,
but few think ho will be overtaken.
News from flroning and vicinity , where
the crime was committed , shows great cx-
citemcnt and a special train svili bring most
of the resIdents ot that vicinity to join In the
chase.
H. Leonard of Norborne , brothicr-rilaw of
one of the Taylor , li been here today. Since
oipper tie took a team out of a livery stable
and drove out of town. He may have stopped

Mi any rate , a telephone message from Nor-

deenis rather a hit of neglect , on the part
of merchants not to have provided before
this convenient means for hedgIng whecI In

Many a purchase has been lost to dovn-
town dealers on account of the lack of a
pioper place to stand wheels. Cyclers do not
care to run the risk of standing their bicycles -
cycles against the curbstone In a crowded
stto9t or to Icavo them against plate-
glass windows. It is rather remarkable that
storekeepers have not perceived this fact.

however , his sight huts beomo impaired and
