A Sensation at Sunbury.
CmiRidcinble exoitcment prevailed nt
Bunbury a few days ngo in consequence of
the discovery that n prisoner named Peter
McQulre bad escaped from his cell and
ltufns Dawess, another prisoner, bad made
an attempt to escape. The men stripped
themselves naked and soaped their bodies
well, and then one forced himself through
the narrow iron spaces used to admit the
light into their apartment. The attempt
was made between 11 o'clock on Wednes
day night and 1 o'clock ou Thursday morn
lng. MoGuire, buing the larger man.toap.
ed his body thoroughly and made the at
tempt first, as they supposed that If the
larger mon couM get through, the other, as
a matter of course, would have no difficul
ty in following him. Pushing his body
through the aperture, which Is about four
inches in width and about eighteen inches
in length, same as the Iron casings of the
skylights in the cells of the Dauphin coun
ty pilsjn, be made the effort and got
through, letting himself down a distance
of twelve feet into the jail yard by means
of a blanket. Dawess made the attempt,
but proving to have larger hips did not get
more than half through before ho wasconi
pletely jammed in, and could neither get
backward nor forward. McGuire took the
end of the blanket and gave two or three
strong pulls, but this course appears to
have made the matter only worse, wedging
Dawess still firmer between the unyielding
surface of the iron casing. In this terrible
predicament Dawess remained for Beveral
.hours uutil another prisoner beard his
groans and acquainted Mr. Peeler, the
turnkey, of the fact. The latter immedi
ately procured assistance, and after using
plenty of soap, attempted to remove the
unfortunate prisoner,first by filing off some
of the surface of the flange or outer edge,
but making no progress and fearing the
man would die if not speedily relieved, he
sent for a blacksmith. Dawess was re
leased after having been in the window 7
hours, and his body was much swollen.
Dawess, after having been properly attend
ed to, revived sufficiently to tell the follow
ing 6vory :
" McGuire waited outside the cell in the
I.rison yard for two hours ; tugged at the
blanket hard suveral times, but finding it
only tortured his comrade be desisted. lie
went into the engine house in quest of
rtools, thinking he could enlarge the
-aperture and release his companion,
lint failed to find anything to work with ;
that he hesitated about going over the jail
wall and leaving his friend behind him in
.such a miserable plight ; but finally with
the aid of a washlino and a book got on the
top o the wall. From this point ho gained
the outside of the wall, by means of the
same rope and hook and made his escape
before being discovered." He was captured
fibortly afterwards in an adjoining county.
Whipping the Wrong Boy.
While whipping a boy at school, the
master found him laughing heartily, and
the harder he whipped the louder the boy
laughed. Stopping, he angrily asked,
"What are you laughing at?" "Sir,"
said the youth, who could hardly suppress
his laughter, "you are whipping the wrong
boy." So physicians, when depending
upon a limited experience in determining
the nature of some delicate affection,
often treat the wrong disease. Many times
wotneu call upon their family physicians,
one with dyspepsia, another with palpita
tion another with trouble of the breast,
another with pain here and there, and in
this way they all present alike to themselves
and their easy-going and indifferent doctor,
separate and distinct diseases, for which he
prescribes his pills and potions, assuming
them to be such, when, in realty, they are
symptoms caused by some uterine disorder.
While the physician is ignorant of the
cause of suffering, he encourages bis
practice until large bills are made, when
the suffering patient is no better, .but
probably worse for the delay, treatment,
and various complications made. A proper
medicine directed to the cause would per
haps have entirely removed the disease,
thereby instituting comfort instead of pro
longed misery.
Mrs. Henry Patterson, of New York
City, writing to Dr.R.V. Pierce.of Buffalo,
N. Y., nays : " I had been under an emi
nent physician's care for eight months for
what he called "spinal disease." I be
came worse during all this time, when,
chancing to see a copy of your Medical
Advertiser at the residenoe of a friend, I
read that part devoted to Woman and her
Disease.' I soon became convinced that
my disease was a uterine affection, which,
as you say, caused sympathetic backache,
inward fever, nervousness, and general de
bility. I commenced the use of you
Favorite Prescription and Golden Medical
Discovery, applying also the local treat
ment which you reoommend in the Adviser,
and in three months I was well and strong."
t3J"At Harrison, Ohio, on Saturday
night a week, at a meeting in the Town
Hall, new gasoline machine, which was
lieing tested by those unskilled in its opera
tion, exploded, killing a member of the
Town Council and a little girl, and burn
iog several others. The flames spread,
causing the wildest confusion ; but the fire
was got under control and the building
saved in a damaged condition.
