And Make Quick Get-a-way.
(By Alaska News Bureau)
SING SING, N. Y. Oct. 8? Last
night, just befory; the time for the
turn key to make his rounds, five
convicts overpowered the guards, and
locked them in the cells, after first
binding them securely with ropes
made good their escape.
The five convicts were all heavily
armed, and the guards were power

When the turnkey found the guards
locked in the ceHs, he immediately
turaed in an alarm, and a strong poss

Up to the time of going to press,
no due had been found as to their
whereabouts, but the officers are pos
itive that they cannot escape, and
that they will be apprehended and
returned to prison within a short
time.
