THE GOVERNOR SAVED Her.
a Foolish Girls InfatuatIon for a
Desperate Criminal

In one OF the Indiana prisons is a
convict who is serving a life sentence
for the commission or one or the most
horrible crimes, says the lndidRdDoEiS
NetrS- II has been said that no man is
so bad that he has not friends. The
friends OF this man from the beginn no
OF his sentence have never ceased 10
work for his pardon. Influential clti-
zens and public officials have been in
duced TO write personal letters TO all
the Governors who have had Office since
thu term of his confinement Legan.
Petition after petition has been pre-
pared and hundreds of signatures Sc
cured.
1t is related that at one time a Gov
ernor was almost persuaded to pardon
the man. The sentiment in his favor
seemed fairly overwhelming. As a
last prec cautiOn he sent for his private
secretary TO talk over the whole case
with the prisoner himself. The prls-
Oner ,Old his story forcibly, but so
gllbly as 10 indicate that he had care
fully prepared il and committed it TO
memory. As his recital closed he drew
a photograph of a beautiful young wo-
man from his pocket.
The first thing l shall do when 1
anl released will be to marry this girl, -
lie said.
who is she?" asked the visitor.
''She is Miss NJ he replied
land is the daughter OF one or the rich
est AMI proudest families of the city Of
-. She Will marry me the minute I
am set free"
"How do you happen to know
her?'
''Ob, that's all right. She visited the
prison one time and 1 got acquainted
with her. She fell in love with me at
first sight. Don't worry about me;
I'm solid with her."
The secretary looked at the photo
graph again. The face shown there
WAS delicate and refined, and every line
indicated the condding truthfulneSs of
innocent girlhood. He looked at the
prisoner. In his eve was a wicked leer
of triumph. Evil and sin were stamped
upon every feature. When the secre-
tiry made report to the Governor he
told the story of the photograph. The
Chef Executive pOndeIed over it
awhile, then bringing his fist down
upon his desk with a force that set all
its light furniture to rafting, he said:
The photograph settles it That
sweet girl and the happiness of her
home and friends must not be ruined
by any act of mine, The prisoner
must serve his time"

ALMOST every Jay furnishes an Illus

national Marine Conference. Recently
the steamship CITY Of Paris came into
collision with another steamer in the
River Mersey, and now the Britannia,
while careeriug over the Irish Sea, has
run INTO and sunk slOw-paced brigan-
tine, which, under any reasonable rule
Of the road at SEA, was entitled TO i'm

needed revision, vet they certainly
guarded against such recklessneSs in a
crowded waterway As was displayed by
the officers ot the Britannia.

On Another Errand.

a Vermont Baptist miRister, who is
not too grave and dignided to enjoy a
gJOl joke, even when it is on himself,
narrates ludicrous incident of his
early life. Soon after being settled over
new congregation, he one day re-
ceived a note asking him 10 be at home
that evening at eight O'Clock. The
writer added that he was fntending t.
be married at that hour, aud would
call at the parsonage with his bride
IL was but a few minutes before
eight O'Clock when the door bell rang.
and a moment later the servant an
nounced that young couple awaited
the minister in the parlor.
Going down into the parlor, accom-
panied by his wife, the pastor found a
u atty dressed, intelligent appearin :
young man and bright looking youn,.
woman, who rose to receive him.
- am Mr.. Homer" said the young
man, "and this is Miss Cross. -
Having another engagement for the
evening, the minister said immed lately:
Il received your note this mornin ?.
and We will proceed with the ceremony
at once. Please join your right hands. .
In great bewllderment, which tile
minister mistook for natural embarrass-
mclOs lue young GU PIE tlLlll4y CldSpel
hands, and the ceremony Was about to
begin, when the young man said:
'I-we-what ceremony is itT''
why, the ceremony of marriage, OF
course"
''O-o-o-hl" shrieked the young lady,
withdrawing her hand and covering
her face with "A handkerchief.
Il don't understand this at al, 4" sa d
the young man sharply. 1--WE came
here simply as a committee from ths
Young Peoples Society of the Method
ist Church, to ask you and your wife to
be present at public entertainment we
are about to give, and"
1t was now the ministers turn to say
'O-O-O-hl' and he said it in genuine
astJnIshment at the very moment that
the maid ushered in the young couple
who had matr, monial intentions.
The mistake evidently started the
first young couple into new lines of
thought; for, year later, their own
l'ast"r being i'll, they called upon the
B Iptist pastor, and did not protest that
lie WAS going too far, when he again
asked them to join hands.
