Convict Murphy Recaptured
-------
El Reno, Nev., August 24.—Convict Joseph Murphy, who escaped from Folsom prison, was captured here late last night. Convict Frank Miller was with Murphy at the time, but jumped off the sidewalk into the willows. Several shots were fired at him, but he escaped in the darkness. A large posse is on the trail of Miller and his capture is expected at any moment.
