APainfuI Scene In a Court Room.

Charles f. Fredericks, night distribu-
ton clerk in the Newark IN. j. POST
office, who was detected in stealing let
tiers, was brought before Commissioner
Whitehouse in Newark. The father of
Fredericks, who is more than seventy
years ofage, came in and was led to the
chair where the prisoner was seated. For
moment he stood trembling before him
and then resting his hands on the Shout
ders of his son said 20 Charles, Char
les, you have, you have. Your mother is
gone, but before she died she said you
would some time break my heart When
the wife and child of the accused man en-
tered the room, the wife, regardless of
those present, threw herself into his arms
and cried: Charles, have you done this .
And have we been living upon these
theftsl "This was the first time" was
the answer The next moment his al
most-frenzied wife was upon her knees
before the Commissioner, and cried out in
an agony of grief: Kill me, murder me
do what you will, but let me have my

taken from the room. Examination was

The deadliest foe to mans longevity
is an unnatural excitement. Every man
is born with certain stock OF vitality,
which cannot be increased, but which
may be husbanded or expended rapidly,
as he deems best. He who avoids stimu
lants. takes light exercise, never overtasks
himself. leeds his mind and heart on no
exciting material, has no facilitating
pleasures. let's nothing rufiie bis temper,
keeps his accounts with God and man
duly squared up, is sure, barring acct
dents, to spin out his life to the longest
limit which it is possible TO attain while
he who lives intensely, who feeds on high
seasoned food, whether material or men
taI. fatigues his body or brain by too
hard labor, seeks continual excitement
gives loose rein to his passions, frets at
every trouble, and enjoys little repose, IS
burning the candle at both ends, and IS
sure to shorten his days.

A short time since the Marshal Of Dres
den appeared at little mining-town
Navarro, and, thinking Ike Linton was
at work in the mine, the men were or
dered out from the mine and, as they filed
by, the Marshal recognized his old prison
er. The local paper says of what follows
McLaren tapped him on the shoulder
and laughed.
We'll, Ike, I'm looking for YOU
Ike recognized McLaren and turned
very pale.
| !" Let me put on my boots, Wessl'' he
said. He put on his boots and asked the
Marshal if he could 90 home and see his
wife and child before he was taken away
| from them.
VI course, Ike; where do you liver
lie led the way to comfortable little
dwelling, and as they entered the door his
wife saw the changed manner of her hus.
band and knew Immediately what had
happened. Ike had told her long before
that he was liable TO be arrested at any
time. He kissed his little daughter,
Mary, called so after his mother, and shed
tears. The little girl is about ten months
| old, and his wife, whom he married about
two years subsequent to his escape from
the Perry County Prison, is tidy, good
looking woman. She seemed very much
cast down by her husbands misfortune.
The Marshal was himself yisibly effected.
Linton washed his grimy hands clean of
the coal-dirt and changed his clothes.
The Marshal then hurried him away.
1t appears that Ike Linton, known by
his neighbors rs "Bill Burris, had gained
the good will of the Navarro immunity
by honest, upright behavior, sober, indus
trious habits, and was well thought of.
Last Tuesday Ike Linton, handcuffed
and in charge of Marshal McLaren, was
conveyed, on the morning train, through
Dresden to New Lexington, where is stu
ated the Perry County Jail. He was
lodged in cell after being allowed to see
Jim Linton, who shook hands with him,
but did not deign to recognize Marshal
McLaren.
Jim Linton was captured about week
previous to likes srrest When found, he
had contract for getting out railroad
ties and was at work not far from In
dianapolis, Ind. His wife had lived with
hun only week when he was arrested,
the detectives having trailed her to his
hiding place.
Ike Linton says it is unjust to blame
anyone for their escape from the Jail for
| they received no outside assistance, but
dug their way out with case-knife.
The men have lived for four years in
peace with their neighbors, and Ike in
particular is very well spoken of by all.
Since all had been accomplished that
prison discipline could be expected to do,
| it remains to be seen whether Ohio will
add any more chapters to this actual
:Les Miserables tragedy, which, thus
far, cannot fail to impress one as parallel
to Victor Hugo's great work.
The Cincinnati Times very justly calls
upon Gov. Bishop to grant pardon to
these recaptured convicts, and not run any
risk in turning out az the end of the sent
ence two men who will in all probabili' y
