LEAVE YODR MEASURE AND HAVE US MAKE YOU SOME PERFECT FIITING Last evening about 7 o'clock there was a sensational eeoape from jail by which Sol Speed, the colored crook who was put in jail on the first day of March for breaking the safe at Bobt Ray's saloon and who la alao thought to be perpetrator of the J. D. Taylor diamond robbery; ChaB. Williams, the tramp highwayman who was arrested Saturday night together with Andy Ryan, a ditcher, lor rob- blng Chas. Hoffman, of Washington township on the highway, and Hamilton, the all-around thief and tough who after serving aiall sentence for a murderous assault on Policeman Skelton, was arrested and waa awaiting trial on an affidavit charging the theft of a watch from Gufl Dreyer, were successful In making a dash for liberty.

In the celling above the west corridor is a scuttle trap, secured by a padlock. The padlock hangs, or bung, about two feet from the bars of the upper tier of the inner steel cage and could be reached by a person of a suN floient lenght of arm who might, un molested and by the exercise of an Infinite degree of patience, be operated upon with a flle. From the west corridor of the jail the arrangement of the bars of tho cage offers a snffl oient ladder by which the scuttle hole might be reached by an ordinarily active person. Jt was thus tbe delivery was effected. The hasp of the pad, lock had been filed through by some one reaching from the upper tier of tbe cage.

Last evening when the prisoners were called for supper all responded and their evening repast was set out. The sheriff then sat down to his own supper. Upon the completion of the meal he eaw to the locking of the inside cage. Thinking that Borne of tbe prisoners had already retired to the Inelde, he saw that all were out of the corridors and locked the cage up for the nipht. About a quarter of an hour afterward roan Selgmond, who lives across the street on North street came over the jail office and said that some one was climbing, up to tbe west windows to hand tools in.

The sheriff and found that Instead of some one climbing up from the oul- lide. others had been climbing down the inside, and the startling act was disclosed that Speed, WU- iams and Hamilton were gone. They lad while down stairs for supper, climbed the outside of the cage and wriggled through the trap door to the garret. With few well directed movements had broken through the ilate roof and emerged upon the roof the free air of liberty. Having previously taken the precaution to Into strips and knot pieces of mattresses they bad a strong rope upon which they safely slid to the earth.

It was this last act in their which Selgmund saw and which he thought was the act of some one trom the outside climbing up to windows. It was found later that a bar near the floor of the cage at tbe north end, next to the stove, had been sawed off at one end and broken below, giving room for a man to wriggle through opening. It is therefore probable that all wont to their cells after supper and later the trio got out through the broken bar. The remaining prisoners are petty culprits who are serving out jail sentences and who preferred to finish their sentences to incurring the pen- ally of a needless escape. The highwayman's partner was confined in another part of the jail, as ia customary In cases where two are put in together and of course knew nothing about his comrade's plan of escape.

Sheriff Homburg notified the police and stationed his deputies on the lookout. It was soon ascertained that the fellows had been seen dodging around Uhl's mills and had run across the Clcott street bridge. It was then thought that they were laying for the Vandalia 8:40 freight south nrhloh they could board is it started up Clymer's hill. Deputies were Boot to Clymera, and found that upon a lumber car of this freight there were three nuob persons. Telegrams were Bent down the road, and It Is not unlikely that the trio may be captured before they are many hour, out.
