OFFICERS SPREAD WIDE NET FOR CONVICTS WHO STOLE AUTOMOBILE AND ESCAPED AT HEBRON SUNDAY te { ry = ze, (ee) > i ‘1 r ne ? f qi ; 4 a | THE WEATHER Unsettled THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE [== PRICE FIVE CENTS BISMARCK, NORTH DAKOTA. TUESDAY, SEPT. 7, 1920 Car Seen Going West of Hebron After Ball Players of Prison Team Disappear ONE CONVICT A “LIFER” Harry Smith, Former Resident of Bismarck, and William Singheiin Get Away Sheriffs, chiefs of police and: other officials. throughout western North Dakota and eastern Montana are searching today for the two convicts, who escaped at Hebron Sunday night. This afternoon no trace had been found on the fleeing men. The two who escaped were Harry Smith, formerly a resident of Bis- marck, who was sentenced to life im- prisonment in 1916 for the murder of his wife, being received at the prison from Grand Forks county, and Wil- liam Singheim, of Rolette county, re- ceived at the prison in 1918 to serve a three-year term for auto theft. Play Ball Game The two convicts were members of the prison baseball team which play- ed the Hebron team at Hebron Sun- day afternoon. It was the last‘sched- uled ‘game of the season outside the prison grounds, and it is believed the two convicts had planned to make their getaway on this last day out- side the prison walls. The team was to return to Bis- marck from Hebron on Northern Pa- cific train No. 4. The train was four hours late, not leaving Hebron until after 9 p.m. There was a large crowd of townpeople at the station, it be- ing an unusual sight for the people to see a baseball team composed of convicts. Steal Chiefs Car The prisoners, who are members of the team, are considered “trusties™ when out on a trip. They are put on their honor not to escape. When the train pulled out the two men were found missing, and a search was started. It was learned that the automobile of Chief of Police Fred Klein of He- bron, had bten stolen while he was attending the Evangelical church. The car, an Overland, was parked in front of the edifice. “IT am sure, that it was the con- victs that stole my car,” said Chief Klein over the telephone to a Tribune reported. ‘The convicts were around the streets while waiting for the train. Seon Going West “Two men made inquiries of He- bron people as to the best road to take out of town to the west, asking particularly about the Red Trail, its course and its condition. We got a report from a man who saw two men in an automobile three miles west of. Hebron Sunday night which tallied with the description of my car. They also were seen going through Rich- ardton.” Immediately after the escape of the convicts was discovered sheriffs and others officials over a large area were . notified. Chief Klein said that his car was painted dark blue, had a spotlight There were two new Portage tires on the rear and a tire rim. Nothing else in the town was miss- ing, so it is believed that the con- victs did not obtain guns. Their pur- pose, in the opinion of Klein, was to drive west as far as they could safe- ly, and then catch a train, either east or west. However, no trace of the car has been found, and it.is pos- sible that they drove it into the Bac Lands. No blame is attached to any one of the prison guards, according to Beech- er Stair, son and assistant of Warden L. L. Stair. He said the prisoners were put on their honor when taken with the ball team and had lived up to their trust in the past. No disciplinary measures toward prisoners “has been taken as yet,” he added.
