17,120 ' ,uul ,nartc their escape. An investigation proved
-— I that the report was true, and that the escaped
36,416 | prisoners were among the worst criminals con
fined in the jail. One or two parties who were
walking in the neighborhood saw the prisoners
as they hurriedly left the jail. One of them car
ried a pistol that had been taken from the jailer,
and they ran across the east commons, rapidly
leaving the city behind them. An Enquired
Hun reporter went down to the jail yesterday and
secured an interview with the jailer. As he
knocked at the front door it was opened by a
servant.
“Come right up here,’’ said Jailer Brooks, lead
ing the way to the second story of the jail. “I
want to show you exactly how it occurred. You
see, the prisoners are allowed to remain in the
corridor during the day and late in the afternoon
I came up and ordered them into their cells.

side door and stepped into the corridor to turn
on the large locks which are on the outside of
each cell, taking the precaution, however, to lock
the outside door behind me. Just as I stepped
into the corridor Courtney pushed open the door
of his cell ami mado at me. i drew my pistol,
blit the quarters were so close l hadn’t time to
use it before he grasped'it, and in a second four
other prisoners emerged from the same cell and
grappled with me. They dragged me iutothe
cell, and though I struggled with them
with all my strength, they finally choked
me uutil I was unconscious. They then took the
key to the outer door and $46 in money from my
pocket, and after re easing Livingston, who was
in another cell, left the jail. They tied my feet
and hands with a rope, but I do not think they
tied a towel over my mouth. They choked mo
terribly, and it seemed to me that I straggled
with them half an hour, but no assistance came.
They held their hands over .i.y mouth to keep me
from giving an alarm.
“ How did they manage to open the cell door?”
“You see there are three slots to each door.
Now, upon examination you find that they have
been sawed off, but they were stuck baek so tint
no one would have detected it. When I stepped
inside the corridor all they had to do was to push

Jkrnioan, Ala , November 5. Enquirer-Sun:
In up issue of the Enqihrkr-Sun, Ou jber 30th,
contains an article in reference t > K. W. Chap
man and myself which is wholly false. Chapman
is still living and uninjured by me. As so many
Arise reports have been circulated, uuii even gone
topreus, I wish to relate the circuuisU.uce, and
you will see that l acted only as a gentleman
with any respect for himself could. It was the
third time Chapman’s cows had been ou my
crop, making quite u destruction of it. 1 went to
him each time, asking him kindly to keep them
out, which he promised to do, until the l3tli inst.
I told him he ought to pay damages. He began
to abuse and curse me in the lowest, basest
language possible. He said ho would whip me.
1 told him I cid not come for a quarrel or tight;
that I would run before 1 would strike an old
man. and left film for home. He- followed me
about seventy or eighty yards, still cm sing and
abusing me I could take it no longer. I slapped
him over, put my knee on his head, slapped him
aeveral times with open hand, never kicked or
knocked him, only slapped him. Next day O. T.
Howard saw him one hundred yard* from his
duelling walking. He has been up and out
eveiy day siuce.
1 will refer you to the following gentlemen for
my character uns also): Dick Linds y. Herndon
Glenn. Seale; O. T. Howard, D. R. Mitchell, Jer
nigam Henry Woodruff, Umpire mills; Col. Wiu.
li. Biuiinon. Lee Kaufman, Columbus.
Respectfully, J. li. Thomas.
Juct. 1 thereupo wrote Livingston a note asking i overland to Nov. 1 1
1 Southern consumption to;
plied that I y. j .
him if t here was a conspiracy, lie
there was, but the danger
immediate. I afterward tried to get Livingston
to tell me the whole scheme, but he declined to
do so without first consulting his attorney. I
then saw Mr. Slade, but he said he did not pro
pose to give Livingston any advice in the matter,
as he did not think it amounted to anything,
and as he thought he hud done all that it was
his duty to do iu putting me on my guard. 1 told
him that unless I knew what the conspiracy was
1 would be powerless to prevent it-, but he still de
clined to have anything more to do with the
matter.”
“Who were the prisoners that escaped ?”
“They were Win. Courtney, a young white
man charged with forging orders on the Eag.o
and Phcnix: J. C. Jenkins, a white man charge *.
with forging orders ou the county commission
ers; J. W. Livingston, a white man, charged with
burglarizing J. J. Wood’s residence; George
Brooks, alias Miller, the negro charged with the
murder of James Mills; Willis McAfl’ee, the negro
charged with burglarizing E. W. Joiues’resi
dence, and Sc ip Williams, charged with assault
aud battery,”
“Were there any other prisoners iu jail ?”
“Yes; there were fifteen in all. Two or three
others came out of their cells, but refused to go
off.”
Jailer Brooks’ eye was badly bruised and thero
were several scratches on his throat. From what
the reporter saw, he was convinced that no negli
gence or carelessness on t ae jailor’s part caused
the escape of the prisoners. It was one of those
things that will happen occasionally in spite of
all precautions. It was first reported Jailei
Brooks lost only $<5, but upon examining his
pocket-book, he found they had taken $40 from
it. They also took a bunch of small keys.
Yesterdav Jailer Brooks sworu out a warrant
against Bertha Courtney, a young sister of Wm.
Courtney; charging her with aiding and abetting
the prisoners in escaping. She was arrested
while at work in Swift factory by Bailiff Abney,
and taken before Justice Wilkins. The ca e was
continued until 2 o’clock this afternoon, and
Miss Courtney gave bail in the sum of $100 for
her appearance at that hour. Jailer Brooks be
lieves she furnished the saw to her brother with
which the prisoners did the work. Courtuey was
under sentence of five years iu the poniteutiar;.,
but his case had been appealed to the supreme
court.
No reward has been offered for the capture of
the prisoners and none of them have been
arrested.
Robert Downing as S|mrtacus.
Mr. Robert L. Downing appeared at Springer
Opera House last night as "Spartaeus, the
Gladiator.” It would be putting it mildly to say
that he acquitted himself in a creditable man
ner. The fact is, his acting was faultless, aud he
won the heartiest admiration of the audiuce. He,
is unquestionably an actor of no mean abilil;
and it will not be long before he will rank umo/g
such leading stars as Booth and Barrett. He
already a favorite in Columbus, but wheiY
comes again the opera house will hardly/nold
the audience that will greet him. His suj^oil is
good, and we take pleasure in making special
mention <>f the spiendid acting of Mr/ Henry
Aveling as Pbasarius.

The Fire Yesterday.
An alarm of fire was sounded at 3:15 o'clock
yesterday afternoon. It was caused by the dis
covery of flames i-suing from the stable on 8ixtt\
avenue, occupied by Eugeue Lawrence & Go’s
dray lino. The building was a mere skeleton of
wood work and in a very few minutes it was en
veloped in flames. Thfe department responded
promptly to the call and did noble work. One
or two other small outhouses were burned, but
the residence which was occupied bv Mr. Law
rence was saved. All the fhrniture, however,
was moved ijiro the streets There were 250
bushels of corn apd other feed for animals de
stroyed with the stable, and two hogs in a pen
near by perished in the flames. Mr. Homer M.
Howard owns the property. His exact loss is
not known, but it is mostly covered by insur

become the home of living parasites. The idea is
a horrible on , but' none the less true, that these

We lake pleasure in announcing that our store

will apprekaje a share of your
patronage. With an entire aew, clean and first-
class stock, bought for cash and discounted, we
are in a position to offer such inducements as
cannot be had elsewhere. We do not advertise
any special article, for if we were to undertake to-
mention only the specialties kept by us it would
take the whole Enquirer-Sun. Therefore we
respectfully ask you to visit our store and see for
yourself. Our tinctures are all made direct from
ft'esh drugs, not fluid extracts, and are prepared
by the 1880 Pharmacopear, and no physician need
hesitate to send us his prescriptions, for they will
be filled accurately and just what he prescribes
will be used. Every article in our Prescription
Department has been c&reftilly selected by one
who delights in and will use only the finest that
can be had. Everyone likes to see pretty goods,
and when they buy, get new goods, so call and
see us, and we promise you shall be pleased.
