New CASTLE. May 19.-Frank Mccoy,
well known as big k'rankn the once
notorious bank burglar, who completed a
ten-years' sentence in New Castle Jail last
February for robbinG the Bank OF Della
ware, was in town last night During his
long stay here Frank who is an intellectual
and genial fellow made hosts of friends,
and the evening was spent in renewing old
acquaintance. lie also visited the jail
and shook hands with scores OF the
prisoners all of whom heartily greeted and
wished him good luck in his new vocation.
Franks looking well and hearty and there
is conspicuous absence of that pallor
i'll his face, which all long.term
prisoners contract. 10 a friend he
stated that he was now engaged in making
4 legitimate honest Living. and was striving
10 lead as upright life AS possible. His
business is that of bookmaking at the
Gloucester and Gravesend race tracks.
Franz when questioned as to how he
could consCiGutiously lecture in the in
tercsts of young mems Christian associa-
tons and wumen's Christian Temperance
unions. and the next day turn around and
sell pools un the races, said that the reports
circulated i'll the newspapers 10 the effect
that he had made addresses before atl-
diences i'll Philadelphia ava TIentcn \.
j., churches were all bosh, and if any such
Lectures actually took place, they came
from the mouth of some other ex. convict
named Frank. II is said that Big Frankn
Carter a name by which Mccoy was once
known, also a noted crook who was re-
leased from one of the Philadelphia
prisons about the time Mccoy was liber-
attd from here, was the reformed convict
who created such furore at the time by
his lectures.

NEW CASTLE, May 20.-Thomas Il.
Millllkin, the young man who posed as a
bogus theatrical agent, and who was
convicted at the last session of the gen
eral sessions court on the charge of
counscling to commit larceny, stood Mt
the whipping post i'll the Jail yard at
New Castle to-day, while Sheriff Gould
applied 20 lashcs to his bare back.
Miliikin squirmed and begged for
mercy as the blows of the "cat" fell
heavily upon his back, but the sheriff
carried out the order of the court to the
letter and Millikin received the full ex-
tent of the punishment.
The prisoner is very frail, weighing
bat los pounds, and suffered much
from his severe whipping. As the fifth
lash fell upon his back he uttered loud
cry which was repeated several times as
the cat fell in rapid succession upon his
well-blIstercd back.
The culprit was whipped to the point
Of bringing the blood. He glared
wickedly at the sheriff when leaving
the post, but said nothing. He was re-
turned to his cell to serve three years
sentence.
A petition had been sent to the COVER
nor TO have corporal punishment re-
mitted, in this case, but he refused to in

A petition is being circulated in Media,
Pa, and vicinity to be presented to Gov.
ernor Frank Brown of Maryland, asking
for the pardon of William NJ Tyler. who
was convicted last October of killing
William shaw at Denton, Md, and sem
fenced to an imprisonment OF five years in
the penitentiary. The shooting occurred
last July and was the ending of quarrel
over some farming utensils. Tyler's
friends in Media. where his family and
relatives reside, always believed in his plea
of self-defence, and the pardon is being
asked for on the ground that the boy was
unjustly convicted. The petition has been
signed by all OF the members of the bar at
Media, all the physicians, by Collector
Cooper and Congressman Robinson and
by every person Of prominence who knew
young Tyler personally. IL is also said
that six of the jurymen who tried the case
and found Tyler guilty have signed for his
pardon.
