CONCORD, Feb. 6.-The controversary
over the payment of the reward for cap
ture Of Murderer Frank c. Amy, which
has been taken into the legislature is
creating no end OF a discussion.
There are two petitions before the lepis-
lature asking for the reward, one from
the mother OF the murdered girl and
Sheriff Randall, aid the other from
Messrs. Brown and W~hitcher.
Regarding them the Monitor saws
Mrs. Narden's petition for the states
reward bears the mark of nconsistency
when compared with her letter TO the
town OF Hanover. How far she may be a
free agent in thus seeking to profit by
her daughters murderer il too delicate n
matter for discussion. But the muir
derer's expiration should be her highest
reward. The claim of Messrs. Brown
and Whitcher seems to us absurd. They
were placed on guard by the county
and were TO be paid by the
of Grafton. There was no
thought of the reward. III their claim is
reduced to the last analysis the reward
belongs to Grafton county. But the legis-
lature must decide the question. The
better way would be TO 1--WE the petit

allowed his freedom.
DIR. Graves is hale and hearty and does
not show any traces of his imprisonment.
He retains his old time courtesy and
pleasant manner. The doctor Is happy at
being. free again, ga there is no probabili-
~ OF his ever being tried the second time,
because OF the great expense attached to
tn" trial and the absence Of witnesses.

said the doctor, "and that is. neither
now nor in the future will / have any
thing to say about the justice or inius-
tice of the trial. leave my case entirely
in the hands Of the law and the people OF
Colorado"
The doctor talked freely OF prison life
and the many peculiar characters among
the convicts.
During his confinement DR.. Graves
made observations upon the climate of

II hope TO see you in our lodge room.
You did perfectly right in removing the
charm, as its presence might have been
construed as indicating AN appeal TO the
Masonic fraternity"
