ESCAPE FROM PRISON.
A young man named James Baldwin, who was sentenced to three years' reformative treatment for breaking and entering, escaped from the Mount Cook prison, Wellington, on Thursday, and has not yet been recaptured.

"I heard to-day of a man iwith 14 children having been accepted for active service," said Mr Cray (Timaru) at tbe, Conference of Patriotic Societies in Wellington. "No wonder he i.s going to the war!" somebody remarked, amidst laughter.
