A piece of the iron flooring of the jail 18 on exhibition at J. M. Phillips’ store, showing how thin it is and how easily it can be broken through. This last jail break revives the question of building a new county jail. It was voted down last fall, but if the county intends to keep prisoners at all, it is evident something must be done. Supervisor Phillips ox pressed himself yesterday as being in favor of calling a special meeting of the board, so that the question could be properly laid before the voters again this fall, Jailer Schontz was yesterday showing to the curious questioners about the jail break a sample of the iron used for the floors of the cells, and through which the break was made. It has been there long and was none too thick to start with, while the rust has eaten nearly through it. The other floors are doubtless in a like condition, and the jail is thercfore incapable of holding prisoners who are Lound to getjout. The only preventive constant vigilance on the part of officers, and this is not always sure. A young man named Londsberry, who has suffered greatly of late from injuries received three years ago, had his leg amputated day by Dr. Bollinger. The injuries were caused by falling from a ladder while cleaning out a cistern, the knee being badly hurt. Since then there has been a constant enlargement of the joint, and contraction of the muscles and tendons. The young man is a laborer, and dependent on his own_exertions for a living, and of late he has been confined to his bed and suffering so intensely that the only show for his life med to be the taking off of the limb. Although in a greatly reduced condition he survived the operation, but there is some doubt, naturally, as to the final result, though it is hoped he will pull through. Our readers will remember the “‘slick one,” Rochelle, formerly owned by Mayor Ledwich, which we Mr. Ledwich having heard that she had been ruined for the track, desired to got h for a brood mare, He wrote to the pre ent owne d d the follow answer for sale; she won last week 4, and can trot_one-half mile in 1:10; she is going to be fast.” It will also be remembered that Rochelle is a half sister to Mr. . B. Hunt's th year-old stallion Avenger, who is liable to make people think he is a trotter, also to his four-year-old mare Sparta, dam_ of Durango Chief. All these excellent Shelby county steppers are out of Mr. Hunt’s former old brood mare Temple Abdallah, acknowledged to have been the best trotting bred mare the state of Iowa ever produced, being the dam of Badger; record, 2:29; trial, 2:20; and grand dumn of Gypsy Boy, 2:20; and who can speed a quarter mile in 30 seconds. * Blood will tell.—[Harlan Tribune. J. W.

Shug The Results of O s Day in Police Circles and Other Items From the Stars, As usual after a circus day there were numerous casos yestorday morning for police court to dispose of. Among these was a woman, rather a well-dressed good looking one, too, who had to answer to the charge of being drunk. She was arrested by officers Leonard and Mullen, who found her in a beastly state. She admitted that she had been drinking some, gave her name as Mamie Hansen, and got Stella Long to go security for the payment of the $8 assessed against her, “Jack, the painter,” gave his real name as Caull yesterday morning, and was fined §3 and cost for being drunk. He left his watch as security, and walked forth. Pat Harrigan, a farmer who had been dead drunk and interred in the calaboose over night, and was fined a like amount, but had spent all his money and could not pu{. He promised to send it in. Ed. Broderick, a doubly blind man- blind in the eyes and blind drunk—was arrested cireus day by Officor Barhyte, Ho had no money to pay his fine, and was sentenced to thirty days in Des Moines, promising to go there at once, without any officer accompanying him. Thomas Gregg, « burley fellow, a han- ger-on to the circus,and who had'a lively street fight with another fellow named Hauser, at the corner of Brondway and Main stroet, was fined $6 and “costs, Houser was fined a like amount, Michael Kildon and Thomas J. Moran kicked up a muss in the rear of a saloon yosterdny morning. Moran is the man who run one of the numerous street stands on circus day, and the other fol- low hails from the country., Chairs were the weapons used, in which Michael Kildon got the worst of it, he getting one wound on the cheek and the other on his back. He followed the man of ‘‘Japancso nerve-tester” reputa- tion several blocks, and collared him again at the Main street oftice, when Offi- cer Mullen stepped in and arrested both, They were AR Ty e Corn Cobs for salo. Address, L. B. Cousins, box 109, city. e Held for The wan Murphy, L sted for stealing clothing at Forman's store, had his pro- liminary examination before Justice Ab- bott yesterday. He was identified as one of the two men who were in the store looking at goods, just before the pile of coats were thrown out of the window, and besides the evidence that he had an opportunity to do the stealing, it was shown that when arrested he had ona coat which resembled closely one of Mr, Forman's stock. The prisoner claimed that he got his coat on a tvade, and he denied that he had anything to do with the robbery; but liw Jjustice deemed the evidence against him sufti cient to bind him over to the grand jury, being fixed at $800, but net given. Mur- phy is ono of th ‘eight prisoners who roke jail on Thursday, but was recap- turned. He will now have until next December to work out again. E. J. Davis lmvmy moved from Pearl street, can now be found at 109 South Main street, where she has a fine stock of fancy goods and notions, ONLY HALF DROWN The Attempt of a Get Rid of Li an Girl to A youny German girl named Catherine Schlapkohl attempted suicide at Avoca, but failed on account of a secarcity of the water supply. about a year ago, and for some tim She came from Germany A8t has been employed in the family of Geo. Pahl. On the morning of her attempted suicide she arose about 4 o'clock and made every preparation to do the wash ly. When Mr. Pahl arose some time later he found that the ing for the fa fire in the kitchen stove was nearly out, and the girl not to be seen. After hunt ing for some time, and inquiring of the neighbors, she was found in the cistern, where she w anding in water up to waist. She was helped out and d for, hut would say noth ing about the matter except that she had fallen in She had heen very despondent for about six weeks, and it is reported that on a former time she attempted to kill herself by cut ting her throat. Theee facts, taken to gether with her strange reticence about the affair, and the further fact that she had no necessity for going near the cis tern, there being a pump inside the kitchen, and a cover over the top of the cistern, lead to the belief that she really tried to commit suicide while temporially insane. She is now being cared for at Mr. Hans Wieses, a few miles from Avoea, e Dr. West, dentist, 14 Pearl strect. — Burning a Barn, Yesterday forenoon about 8 o'clock fire was discovered in the barn belonging to Joe Miller, who lives on Benton street, and whose barn is at the rear of his prop- erty and faces on Harrison street. The alarm was given to Rescue engine com- pany by somebody who dashed down to the house on horseback. That steamer, had to cross the creck above the Metho dist church. and then back to the cistern Madison street, and hose was laid from back across the again to the fire, & long stretch indeed. The other steamer also responded promptly, but another delay was caused by the burst ing of the hose, sothat the fire had much advantage, and ruined the building and much of the contents. Some cultural implements were ren alittle corn. In the upper part of the barn wasa quantity of baled hay and this made a hot fire. The cause of the fire is mot known, but as there are many tramps who have been sleeping ahout in barns in that vicinity, the blame is Taid off onto them. PERSONAL. H. F.
