A Brief Chronicle of Third Terner
The sweetest Home song ever written was
by one, IL Ia said, who never had one, but
that cannot destroy the sweet satisfaction
of he who, after weary absence, again
crosses the well-worn threshold aud sleeps
benrath the root tree that has sheltered
him in tie long ago.
b. it ever 20 humble there's no place like home"
How much more endearing, however,
must be the memories that cluster around

subtle, pervading spirit Of restraint that
induces one, even beyond his RIDER desires.

place TO introduce, according to the adver-
tising system of the day, a laudatory no.

other dent,irice, but such Is not the pur-
pose. The reflections are elected by de-
post within the pententiary walls Of
Charles Clark, sent up from Choteau
county for one year for the crime OF grand
larceny. IL will be- rememb ered that in the
long ago one Whiting was incarcersted for
seven years for grand larceny that mature
deIiberation on his msdeeds and the for
giveness that might follow repentance led
him to express deep remOrse for his trans
errssiOns. to avow himself sinner and
seek the consolation OF religion Represen-
tation of these facts led the Executive to
extend conditional clemency, aud in Au-
gust. 1878, Whiting was set at liberty I'M
der obligations to refrain froa painted
pastcbOards and moonshine Installations.
The spirit was willing but the flesh was
weak. Whiting snned again, was arrested
. l.nu
years without ever having, like Jacob, the
dazzling delusion Of q wife TO reward his
labor and seTvitude. At last he was freed
by expiration Of time he had atoned the
crime. He was good prisoner; It. seem
ed be might be q good citizen. Tho War |

reluctant palm the traditional five dollars, |

Alas, poor YorIck Whiting fell again |
and was recently arrested and i'm prisoned |
10 Choteau county for an assault with a
deadly weapon. During the interim be
had dispensed with his immaculate name
and turned up unSer the name Of Charles
Clark. We all know how Jean Vatican re-
sisted emptatiou and as W. Madelioe came
TO serve his second term in the galleys I'M
ueT ths WhplfaLibn Oh aLtilDuNPs Udt were
god like. II Ia TO be feared Whiting can
not show so creditable record. While 10
Jail at Benton with Others he sought "a re-
gain his liberty, was detected while snuff.
eng the very air Of freedom though his
body was In durance vile, and being tried
for the latter offeDse was found Rnilty and
sentenced to the Pen,tentlsry. II the new
tier OF cells shall be built the Warden may
find 1t convenient To chalk off some par
tIcular one for him and keep his bed aired
and suit hanging ready for bis imminent
return any evening after he has served bis
third term. His dreams Of empire seem
TO be confined to the Montana pAnitentiary
aud for the next twelve months he will find
them realized. Whiting is not bad fellow
apparently, In a good workman and ought
TO behave himself when be gets out. the
nrst thing he knows he will be an old man
without much Of a character unless he re-
forms, and the best thing he can do is to
behave himself while he is In and after he
gets out or course all the boys are glad
to ses him and the prison is very comforta-
bic. but some =. of .Etbeae days there may be
GERS, and then hs will wish he had gone
a-fshing when he bad chance.
