Harris escaped through the window ol bis room, o feet above jround, and the officer tells the Consti tution the story ol the escape : "The French Broad river wound around the foot of tbe hill and I noticed tbat Harris bad started in that direction. We thought we bad him hemmed in and started out faster. Down the bill he went like a scared rabbit and we were on bisheel like a pack of bounds. The river was not far off and I thought we bad bim. " "But that man did something I never dreamed of. He reached tbe bank of the river, hesitated a moment, and then plunged in beadlong. We stood there and wondered. The whole stream was full of ice and in places frozen hard. At' this point the French Broad it broad, indeed, and big lumps of ice were float ing down. But the man braved the cur rentthe icebergs and everything else. He went across the stream like a deer. and I wtll. I stood there on the bank and 'cussed' and wondered. He escaped and be deserved it. That feat was tbe talk ol the people about that section lor many months." Harris was catured tbe second time at Barnard Sunday night, wbile asleep at borne. He was taken to Fort McPher- son from Atlanta. ELECTION BETH. Money Seems to be lteady for 'Viinter In liutherford.
