Judge Hoar, of Massachusetts, has
written q letter, denouncing the sever
ity of Guiteau's confinement in jail,
because it has not yet been legally
proven that he shot the president.
Judge Hoar has a heart as tender as a
spring lamb, and it is a pity to crush it
by the icy GOODNESS of a sin-twisted
world. Guiteau is only too happy to be
In a strong and secure jail, where he is
safe from vigilantes, and the menu is
much better than given to the other
prisoners, who every way excel him in
meanness. Judge Hoar ought to be an
Indian agent and teach them agrioul-
ture.
The Denver Press says: There is not
a day but what the police should arrest

and Maud Fay, a prostitute, were out
airing their arcasse in a fine team
hired from Hartman's stable, on the
west side. They dashed the horses un-
mercifully through the town and SUI
burbs, to the great danger of pedes-
TRANS, and then halted in front of
Madame Duell's dive, near the Blake
street bridge. Then the barkeeper of
the deadfall took a drive, in order to
get the worth Of their money. Ore of
the horses died and the other will not
recover. The three brutes were jailed
on the charge OF cruelty to animals.
As drowning men will catch at
straws, so will men doomed to be
hanged grasp frantically at every legal
technicality that offers aver a shadow
Of hope. 1t was generally believed
that Gilbert and Rosenkrantz, the two
men whose reprieves will expire on
Friday, and who will on that day be
launched into eternity from the gal
lows In Leadville, had made up their
minds that their fate was inevitable.
But 1t is not so. Judge Fishback, Gill
sert's counsel, is in the city on behalf
OF his client, andRosenkrantz' attorney
will come down from Leadville to make
a last appeal for the formers life.
