"What y' in for?" asked the jailer's sj -daughter, peering through the bars. ., She was a gangling girl of sixteen, w with l)Iue eyes and light wavy hair \ >< hanging loose over her l?aek. The i il ^prisoner was a stalwart young fellow 'I 'of twenty. j " "Horse stealing." "Couldn't y' tiud nothing better t' M do than that?" j "I didn't steal any horses. A man (| with a grudge against me put up a job j., on me." u "Is that so? Y' ortn't t' swing if y' didn't do It." I n The prisoner went on reading a pa- I ,, per that had been given him. "I'd let y' out." she added in a low ()! tone, "only pop keeps too sharp a ;j watch on the keys, and there ain't much time." j, The young man turned from his pa- n ner. "You can heln me to iret out if - you wisli," lie said. "How?" A "Can ymi get a saw?" "Nothing but a buck saw." "That won't do. Bring me a file and a case knife." ! , "Pop's got a lile among his tools. I . can get tlie case knife easy enough." , She went away, returning with the , j, articles asked for. The prisoner, coyerlng his hands with the bodclothing : that the tiling should not be heard, | i, proceeded to make a saw of the knife. i aj With one or both he proposed to cut . f( away the bars to his window. This he (\ did while the jailer's daughter strum- ^ med ou a piano directly over his head 0. so that the noise of cutting could not j, l>e heard. i n When he had finished, the girl came I g( again, and he said to her: "CJoodby.

Hi He was joined by the girl, and together they ran for a time, then when c< they could run no longer walked and consulted. hi "It's only five miles t* the railroad ft this way," said the girl.
