THE TIMES, NEW BLOOM FIELD, PA., MAY 3, 1881.
A Prison Plot.
At Coin in bin, H. C, Inst week, one of
the guards was arrested, charged with
counterfeit ititf silver cuireucy. After a
preliminary examination he was vent to
jail in default of bail to await bis trial
nt the approaching session of the U.S.
Court.
Tlio clroumstnitces which led to the nr
re.it are as follows : Colonel Liscomb,
the superintendent of the penitentiary,
had information causing him to suspeot
that some of the couviota wore making
arrangements to escape. In pursuing his
investigations he directed one of tho white
prisoners to secrete himself under the bed
of one of the suspected negro convicts.
While there other uunvlots came in and
engaged in conversation with the negro
nbouc the plot and disclosed the plau of
operation, all of which was duly reported
by the man under the bed, to the proper
authorities, who immediately summoned
twenty or thirty of the oonvicts for exam
ination. When they found that thoir plot
had beeu discovered some of them peach
ed on other, and many openly confessed
their complicity in . the affair. It was
ascertained that eighty ef the negro con
victs had entered into a conspiracy to es
cape at all hazards. They bad managed
to conceal clubs, batches, knives and axes
and bad agreed to escape at daybreak
Sunday morning, May 1st. When the
guards came to release them from their
cells they would simultaneous rusk upon
aud overpower them, and if necessary
murder them. The plau was well arrang
ed, and doubtless would have been executed
but for the discovery made by the superin
tendent. When the officers were prosecuting their
search for evidence against the conspira
tors they discovered a band of counter
feiters among the white convicts, and
found dies aid other implements for coun
terfeiting concealed iu the cells. Large
quantities of coin, silver dollars, fifty cet
pieces and quarters were also found.
These base coins were so skillfully made
that but for their light weight no bank
clerk could have detected their spurious
character. It is said that Columbia is
flooded with this money. The matter baa
caused much excitement here, especially
since it is said that some of the guards
are implicated. It is expected that other
arrests will be made aud additional
facts elicited.
1ST" An English traveller says that iu
many portions of Russia, beds at betels
are not provided with sheets, and in order
to procure those " luxulres" be bad to pay
a considerably additional item in bis bill.
Had be made inquiries be would have dis
covered that it is oustomary with Russians
of any position when travelling in their
own country to carry their own bed cov
ering with them ; in faot on being shown
to a sleeping-apartment at an inn the
couch is provided with a mattress and
pillow only ; blankets and sheets are sup
posed to be included in the guest's bag
gage. Should be bave omitted to briag
such things, which would be unlikely in a
native, then covering would ba furnished
and charged for. The Czar's gently-nurtured
subject! bave a repugnance to sleep
ing under bedclothes which in their time
may have warmed the recumbent bodies
of any number of their miscellaneous coun
trymen, or au equally heterogeneous col
lection of foreigners. It is a whim of
fastidious cleanliness, that is all. The
people of every nation bave their little
peculiarities.
Terrible Western Floods.
St Joseph, Mo., April 2?. The river
at this point is twenty-two feet six inch,
es above low water mark and slowly rising.
Many families bave been resoued from
their inundated bouses in the bottom
lands during the day generally in destitute
circumstances. All the movable fiat boats
have been in use removing people and
stock. An old man and his wife 70 to 80
years of age were to day rescusd from
the Elmwood Bottoms, where they were
living in a small one-story bouse, having
been for two or three days Burrounded by
the swift ourrent a mile or more from
land and the water two feet deep in the
house. It is reported that Charles Mann
and two women were drowned mar Craig
to-day in attempting to escape the flood in
a small boat.
A Dying Convict' Request.
Three years ago a powerful colored
burglar was sent to the Eastern Peniten
tiary from Harrisburg aud shortly after
bis admission to that institution he con
tracted consumption, a disease that pre
vails to an alarming extent among those
subject to close confinement. Ills death
has been expected for several days past.
On Saturday last bis term expired and
lie called bis keeper to hira and in a feeble
voice requested that be be removed from
the Penitentiary, as he did not want to
die there. He was yesterday taken to
the Almshouse. Philadelphia ires.
tW A little boy was terribly bitten by a
rabid dog at Eldridge'a Hill, Salem county,
N. J., a few days ago. Tho brute knock
ed the little fellow down, and standing over
him tore bis flesh in a number of places.
