Out on Parole.

Mayor Davis on Tuesday ordered
Charley Orr, Tom Stillwel and Boots
Day, three corporation prisoners, re.
leased from the Cincinnati work house
on parole, the conditions being that
they do not return to Hillsboro. Still
well was sent down daring the fair in
August for 500 and costs. Orr went in
July to serve a sentence of one year and
$50 and Day has served out most of
three months sentence. The three
have made great deal of expense to
the corporation and it was thought best
to let them out to earn their board in.
stead of having it paid for them.
On Tuesday evening the Mayor re-
considered his action in Orr's case and
Charlie will "bide a wee" in the works.

JOHN LEWIS HOME.
PardOned After Servisg Two Months
H. Of His Seven Year Sentence.

ExCity Marshal John Lewis returned
home Friday evening free man after
having served two months OF his seven
year sentence for the killing of Ed.
Elliott. His coming was almost entirely
unexpected, as the petition for his par.
don was submitted to the Board only
the day before and it was expected that
weeks would elapse before any decisive
action would be taken.
The delegation of Hillsboro people
which carried the petition before the
Board was composed Of Hon. J. J. Pugs
ley, Capt. D. M. Barrett, Capt. H. c.
Dawson, John T. Hire, r. T. Hough, D.
Q. Morrow, L. s. Smith and Mayor
Davis. Hon. d. M. Massie was also
present. The petition was signed by
500 citizens of the county and favorable
sction on it was strongly recommended
to the Board by Circuit Judges d. A.
Russell and Thomas Cherrington, before
whom the case had been once heard,
and by the trial Judge, D. A. Pugh.
Senator Dudley Phillips, of Adams
county, State Auditor Poe, Attorney
General j. X. Richards, Clerk q. H.
Hester, Capt. Ed. Archer and Howard
Gilkey also gave the delegation valuable
assistance.
The rule is for the Board of Pardons
to suspend action until the next meet
ing, six weeks after the presentation OF
a petit On. The case is then generally
referred to the Governor for another six
weeks and by him returned, 80 that any
decisive action is rarely taken inside OF
three months. The delegation, however,
waited upon Governor Mckinley and
had The case taken up out OF its regular
order, so that they were enabled to re-
turn home with their mission fully ac-
complished and accompanied by Lewis.
The pardoned man y short confinement
has broken him considerably and he is
far from being in good health. He is
suffering from a severe throat trouble
and has not been able to be up town
eince his arrival at home.

PASSED AT LAST.
The Water Works Ordinance Goes
Through the Third Time.

Council meetings have been coming
30 think and fast lately that it takes a
good man to keep track of them, but
the members all seem to be of that kind,
for they we're all present Friday night.
The water works ordinance was put
on it's third reading and went through
by unanimous vote. Council realized
the opposition would become active
after the passage of the ordinance and
Messrs. Pavey and Morrow were retained
to assist Solicitor Smith in case tho ex-
pected legal difficulties materalized.
The resurrected annexation ordinance
was put on its first reading and passed.
Alta previous meeting the Building
Committee was directed to renew the
insurance on the city building. They
reported that they had done so and that
the insurance had been divided between
Agents Virgins and CLANCY. Mr.. H.
d. Waddell appeared before Council to
state that he had some time ago SUBJ
mitted bid for the insurance which
had been overlooked and to which no
consideration had been given. 1t devel-
oped that through some ones mistake
the bid had not been brought to the at
tention Of the Committee and the mat
ter was referred bacl- to them for a re-
consideration of the bids.
The Electric Light Co.'s bill for the
last quarter was again brought up
Council decided that 5000 deduction
from the 81, 100 bill ought to be made
and directed that 5000 be rendered in
payment.

A small audience sat and shivered
through the performance of the Shadow
Detective at the Armory Monday night.
Dan A. Kelly and his supporting com-

ceived. As it was they succeeded in
warming up the audience several de-
grees above the atmosphere. The
Armory will never shine conspicuously

can surely be made better than it was
