Mr. Richards could not tell definitely and a member turned to a cenaus report that lay on th table. In this It was revealed that between 1890 and 1900 the population of various counties had decreased as follows: Cheyenne, from 6,698 to 6.670; Keith, from S,66 to 1,851; Sheridan, from '8.687 to 6,083; Sioux, from 8,451 to 8,065; Dawes, from 9,723 to 6,261; Banner, from '. 1,435 to 1,114.

I may hay also that ' this is hardly a criterion of the adult pop ulation, as children are much more nnmer s there now than In 1890. Will Have Bad Effect.

OARING PLAN PROVES SUCCESSFUL Theodore McMawtne, Seat for Twelv Tear Frsa Doaarta Coaatr for Hla-hway Robbery I Hew at Large. Theodor McMsntn, sent up for twelv years for robbery from Douglas county last January, escaped from the penitentiary at Lincoln last Saturday and Is Still at larre. McManln was on of a gene of convicts working aa a hodcarrler on th new ad ministration building In tha penlteatlary enclosure. It Is supposed that the escape had been planned for some time, as several Incidents, all seemingly accidental, oc curred during Saturday forenoon to make K possible, and It I supposed also that other were In league with him. Little, however. la known aa to the details of th plot One or th guards gives this account: "McManln had been employed with sev eral others all tb morning carrying bods ef mortar up to th second floor, and I noticed that his clothe wer so daubed with th plaster that I could hardly make out th atrtpes. I thought nothing of It at tha time, as I supposed It was accidental. Then about fifteen minutes before tb gong struck for noon a hod of bricks fell from th see end floor. It made a terrible clatter, and several of th men narrowly escaped being knocked down by th flying bricks. Of course it diverted every one's attention for th moment. The guards got the order to look sharp, and when tb dust lifted th convicts were lined up and told off. While this was being don someone noticed a piece of scaffolding leaning against th prison wall. Over the Prleoa Walt. "We found w wer on man ahy and a reference to th list In th contractor's hands showed It to be McManln. Th scaffolding agalnat tb wall told th rest of th story. Th alarm was given at oae and armed guarda were aent out la vry direction to bunt him down. "At the time there waa a plcnto In prog ress in the grove outside th prison grounds and aeveral trolley loads of people had lust started back to town. Th supposition Is that ha had boarded one of these cars. He had ao much mortar on his clothes aa to thoroughly disguise his prison garb aad he might have passed In any crowd for a cltl ten laborer." The Omaha police and Sheriff Power wer notified of the escape by telephone about noon Saturday. Since then they have been keeping a sharp lookout for th man, but have seen nothing of him. Th theory gen erally accepted la that he boarded aa out going train the moment he reached Lin coln, and that he Is now several hundred mile from th scene of his spectacular eacape. McManlne- la described In the Bertlllon records aa follows: Age 23 years, weight 160 pounds, height 6 feet S Inches, com plexlon fair, black hair and brown eye. Bold Crime of Prleoaer. On the night of October it, lol, Theo dore McManln and a young man about his age named Charles Glover, both resident of South Omaha, aet out to paint the town. After visiting several aaloons and liberally patronizing each, they ran out of money. Attempta to borrow from acquaintances failed. Th pair became desperate and re solved to turn footpads. The railroad yards being a lonesome district, promised, a fruit ful field and they turned their stepe In that direction. There, at the Intersection of N street with th Union -Paclflo tracks, they came upon an old man, John Andrea by name, employed as a flagman. Pulling their hata down over their eyes. they approached him and ordered him to throw ap his hands. He resisted them and tried to give an alarm. Thereupon one of the desperadoes seised him by tha throat and hurled him to tha ground, whll th other tried to rifle his pockets, but tha old man struggled deaperately. After wrestling with him a moment on of tha pair put a Quietus to their victim by striking him on ths head with the butt of a revolver. They then took his money, In silver and aome small change, and hlr watch, and went away, leaving him for dead. The next day they were arrested and taken to the bedside of old man Andrea, who positively Identified both aa hla as- sallanta. They wer then locked up la th Douglas county Jail. For a whll It waa thought Andre would die of hla Injuries, and even a It waa he waa confined to hla bed for nearly a month. Tha men were tried before Judge Baker In December of last year on a charge of robbery. Both wer found guilty and Mc Manln waa sentenced to twelve years la the penitentiary, while Olover got off with ten years. An extra two years waa glvsn McManln because of his persistent at' tempts to shield his pal. In pronouncing sentence upon them Judge Baker said: "After th brutal way you treated that old man yon may b thankful I am aentenclng you for robbery and not murder." McManln and Olover wer taken to the penitentiary January 18 of thla year. EMIGRANTS KILLED IN WRECK Two DeaS mmd Forty-Five lafswedl a Bieawlt of Heaaoa CollUloa ta Peanaylvaala. C0NNELL8VILUS, Pa.

In this class la the act of the Barrows-Lancaster company, who offer a one-act comedy entitled "Tactics." This little playlet, which la really on of th most clever of Ita kind tn vaudeville, will he remembered aa having been on of the most enjoyable features of one of last season's programs. In th way of a novelty musical act It would be hard to put to gether on that would be any more en tertaining than that offered by Mallory Brothers and Brooks, two colored gentle men and a woman. Each ife a clever In strumentalist, as well as a vocalist, and they offer a repertoire of well choaen se lections on a variety of novel Instruments. Lotta Gladstone la on of those quaint monologue comediennes with a laugh that la so Infectious that ths least Intimation of a smile on her face causes a burst of sympathstlo laughter in the audience. Her oharaotef dialect atorles are new and de cidedly novel. La Fever presents a novel dog and cat act, tn which a dosen dif ferent greyhounds ar mad up with ar tificial heads, manes and tails t imitate horses and upon which a Ilk number of cats and monkeya ride bareback. There are the conventional boxing dogs, somer sault doga, high leaping hounds and skirt dancing poodles, aa well as an Interesting little black and tan that doea a rather clever Imitation of a certain dance performed by Egyptian girls In their native country and aometlmea in America.
