They had several pieces of eavv blades concealed in the jail which they had used the other day and had brought them into use acrain. The plan of the prisoners was to get into the ceil from which they escaped in to the-cellar lust week and then liriih the job of re movinjr the brick which would allow them to escape. The bar on the door which leads to this ce.ll was sawed al most in two, and in a half hour longer they would have been free. Clark is tne leader of the scheme to escape and it is aid that he has given it out thai if he fails to make his escape from the jail hero he will make a pet-away from tho peniten tiary.

Autumnal SMrtH. Major Manchester went hunting for squirrels down south of town yesterday and Charley IJuthcrford accompanied him. Tftey liad great sport, but when they found what Charley called a "covey" of squirrels, Manchester got excited ard chased one up a small treo and instead of shooting it ho struck at it with his gun and broke the stock. This only left one gun between thorn, but they brought home fifteen .-(Tuirrels ana jack-rabbits. Ruther ford, who is a very reliable man, says ho saw something in the top of a tree nearly a hundred feet from the ground. Ilo drew a bead on it, and down came the jack-rabbit. According to Charley, they roost high down in that part of tho country, but the explana tion of how lie killea it increases our suspicion that it was purchased of some lucky boy. When they got homo they remembered "Dad" Karnes with two of the nicest squirrels, and to have seen Dad and Link Ilufler t?vke the ftir oST was fun enough for a iariro crowd at the depot this morning. Dad had .seen the Indians butcher hogs, which are robbed of their bristles by biilding a lire to singe thcru off. lie wanted to dress tho squirrels in the same way, but Ifuffer showed him how to peal them to the i-alisfaction of everybody. Curious I Hit Ahout .Silvi-r. Dr. KJward Bedloe, ex-consul tt China, made an in interesting address before the Herbert Spencer club upon "Silver in tho Far Hast." lie said: "The eastern mind is; practical and businesslike, and, in using silver as a medium of exchange, does so by weight. The expression 'tael,' whieh you read about so frequently, isinerciy a weight, and not a eoin. Iiy doing this they give full play to the law of supply and demand. It has few ad vantages, but many disadvantages. I he chief disadvantage is that tho v.-ilue changes from day to day, and, in doing any burliness with the civil ized nations, you are compelled to wait until the pi ice of silver, which is set in London, is telegraphed by cablo to the eity your are in. Kvery day, and even twice a day, these quotations from the London silver market aro Hashed to the furthermost corners of Japan, China, India and the smaller silver countries of the extreme orient. Tli n, if you are sending home a hun dred dollars to your wife or daughter in New- Vmm- lima --W-rmg: - - Krm-2 rrr' Shanghai, it costs you one day r.-" sil ver dollars and tho next I'-i". Worse j than this is tho gambling based upon the fluctuation in tho market. Men nuy and fell trillions of silver for-future delivery. At one time tho specu tion was t-o tremendous that almost every merchant in the east was en gaged upon it. Finally, in 1SJJ1, there came a crash, huudieds of ilrms, large and r-u;all, were ruined, and millions '10 I n s wore swept out of existence. 1 he li nii-f'i l'finmittP I-'tlnK. The democrat and populists got to ther esterriay at Louisville and or tai.eii a joint committee to take charge ot uie campaign in miscouuiy.

Hill, chairman, Chas. Grimes, secretary. The committee from private, ad vices claimed a certainty of carrying this county by from 140 to -W ma- ioritv. We are forced to remark that if Uryan carries this entire country like he carries the county, MoKinley will bo lhc president. Kflullicaii Comtiiitton .Mt-ftiiiR'. The Cass county republican central committee met at Loui.-ville yesterday and the reoorts from every precinct wero of the most hopeful nature, leav ing no question "but that McKinley s majority in old Cass will be over 5(K). The organization is in good shape, though handicapped somewhat for lack of funds. The theory that tho county ticket can foi-ago on tho con irrePsioriai and national without put ting up the money for necessary ex penses is wrong in principle and wrong in fact, and tho sooner the can didates find out that they must make their own campaign tho better they wi'd fare. The outlook for the sue tp.s of the county ticket, is bright, but it can be defeated if a selfish 'dog in the mangel "" po'icy is to li followed Tin county co'nmittee- should enforce its rules,or discipline and organization must fail.

Jack MacColl took a homestead ad joining what is now the city of Lex ington, in 1ST0. His ancestors were Scotch, and his early manhood was spent on a Canadian farm. lie left homo in 1S! and immediately set out for tho west.

J he first county clerk of Dawson county was removed for cause, and MacColl was appointed in his place. lie held the oftiec thirteen years, although he took it in the beginning under protest. He has never been an office-seeker nor a politician in the accepted sense, lie served one term in the Nebraska legislature, and was a capable, con scientious member. In 1SW his frionds in western Nebraska urged him to become a candidate for the re publican nomination for governor, and he reluctantly consented. L. D. llichards was nominated. Four years later he was an active candidate, but the nomination fell to T. J. Maj jrs. In 1S!0 his friends wero as loyal and enthusiastic as eve, and they went into the state convention with many new recruits and nominated him July 1. Jack MacColl is called tho Nebraska commoner." Such he is in fact. Ho is plain and easy approachable. Ho is sympathetic, cordial aid warm hearted. Ho is a f riond of the laborer as well as tho man of business and is loved by one and esteemed by the other. Personally he is closo-mouthed and conservative, but all the time strictly business.
