'If I had a saw, a! file, or any- . thing," he moaned, as he looked at the solid iron bars across the solitary window. Then a thought struck him, , his face brightened" like a Cripple Creek cocflagration. Rapidly running over hi supply of collars, which had just come from the laundry, he selected one fitted to his purpose. Five min utes later the great middle bar of the window, dextrously severed by the' saw like edge of the laun dered collar, fell apart. He was free. If he had had his collars Laun dered at the Concord Laundry he would be in jail yet.
