Having left his prisoners at Lansing.
Rice went to his old home in Bates
county, Mo, tq visit relatives.
On the evening of March 2H he ac-
companied his 14-year-old cousin, Miss
Maude Thomas, to her brother's for
supper an 1 to spend the evening. Re-

a severe storm was threatened, and,
with the girl. Rice was hurriedly re-
turning to lier home when they heard
a noise in the rear and observed some
dark object approaching. Supposing
it, probably, to be a mad dog or some
other animal that would do them in-
jury, they went as nearly to the ex-
treme side of the road as possible In
order to let the object, whatever it
was, pass. It turned out to be a man
with a chicken under each arm. He
was squeezing their necks in a vain
effort to keep them from making a
noise.
Rice says that instead of passing by
him and hU cousin, as they had hoped,
that he would, he turned directly to-
ward them and approached. He ut-
tered no v ord and seemed to be ad-
vancing In a threatening manner. Rice
says he told him to halt, which order

Rice was also unheeded, and when

Deputy Sheriff Sigman of Comanche,
thought ho had made a good horse
thief catch the other night when he
arrested a deputy from Kiowa. Sig-
man saw the other officer bring in a
lot of fine horses, and put up for the
night at one of the wagon yards there.
Sigman at once hustled him off to the
headquarters of his superior, where
the Kiowa man produced the creden-
tials which made Sigman blush, anl
sent the other officer back to the
horses with a clear title to them. Tne
animals had been stolen, and the of-
ficer was just taking them back to
their owners.

Jailbreaker Rodolpb
Still Eludes Pursuers
(By Associated Press.,
St. Louis, Mo., July 7.—No positive
trace of YVm. Rudolph, the Union
bank robber and alleged murderor ol
Plnkerton Detective Schumacher, who
escaped from the city jail yesterday
afternoon, has been found. Numerous
reports of persons believed to be him
have reached the police and they are
of the opinion that a man who crossed
the Mississippi in a skiff from the foot
of President street at 11:15 o'clock j
last night was Rudolph, although in i
the darkness on the water It was lm- ;
possible to make sure. The governor
today offered a reward of $300 for the
capture of Rudolph.
Shortly before his escape Rudolph
was let out of his cell to be shaved.
The exercise corridor at the time con-
tained abovt 20 prisoners. The guards
were engaged in locking up the pris-
oners for the night when, as Rudolph
passed through the east end of the
exercise corridor, a fight broke out
among the prisoners in the west end.
The majority of the guards ran to sep-
arate the fighting prisoners, and Ru-
dolph quickly ran up three flights of
stairs, jumping to the top of the cells
