LOCK SHERIFF IN JAIL
And Three Prisoners Escape From
St. Matlhews Prison
. St. Matthew.;*. Jan. 2<?.?Officers of
Calhoun county conducted a wide
spread search today for three prison
ers who last flight knocked Sheriff
Frank Hill v unconscious and locked
him up in the jail with his own keys.
Sheriff Hill had recovered today and
was able to join in the search, which,
he states, is expected to place the
men again behind the bars.
At the cell of one of the prisoners,
who had feigned illness, the sheriff
went to the jail about nightfall with
food taken from his own kitchen for
the prisoner. When he entered the
door of the jail a companion of the
reported sick prisoner struck the
sheriff with a blunt instrument.
They then disarmed the officer, and
are thought to have liberated a .ne
gro prisoner in another compartment.
The escaped prisoners are Law
rence Heed and Banton Bosh, both of
New York, who were held for lar
ceny of an automobile, and Hockey
Wilson of Cameron, Calhoun county.
The sheriff recovered consciousness
tshortly after the scape, and gave the
alarm, h required some time .to find
keys that would open the jail door;
but at length the sheriff was a frOe
man. Throughout the night and
through the day the search continued,
with neighboring cities and towns
warned against the escapes, who were
characterized as dangerous men.

Cannot Grant Extension
Major John F. Jones, collector of
international revenue, stated Satur
day that he wished to ?call especial
attention to the fact that under ho
revenue act of 1924 collectors no
longer had any authority to grant
extensions of time in which to file
income tax returns. The commis
sioner of internal revenue at Wash
ington only is authorized to grant an
extension and only then when ap
plication therefor is made before the
date prescribed by law for filing the
return. Collector Jones said that in
the past his office had granted hun
dreds of extensions on account of
sickness, absences from the state and
other legitimate causes rendering in
ability t <> file returns by March 15,
and that since the new law carried
no .such provision he desired to bring
the mattei- to the attention <>f the
taxpayers that they might take such
precautions as to avoid incurring pen
alties on account of failing to file
retu:n within the time required.

had been arrested on a charge of
violating the Mann White Slave act.
Silver was arrested by a department

months through Kansas, Missouri,
Florida, North Carolina and South

was married to a girl accompanying
him, giving her name as Emma Hous

fessed that the two were not married.
The case originated in Kansas City,

On charges that he struck his
mother over the head with a stick,
causing an ugly wound on her fore
