4 Scene Before the Pardon Board.

There was a hearted mother be-
fore the Board OF Pardons on Tuesday,
and a more pathetic scene was never wit
messed a n meeting of that body. The wo-
man. whose face showed the feelings that
agitated her, was the mother of Bobert j.
Cascaden. theyouth who was convicted
of numbering Philadelphia policeman,
who attempted TO arrest him while in the
act Of hurriedly leaving . store one dark
night three years ago. Cascaden had evi-
IDENTIFY entered the store for the purpose
of robhing il. aud, when detected by the
officers. the young man drew a revolver
and shot the policeman dead. For this
crime he was sentenced to Imprisonment
for life. His mother, who has since been
prostrated over the terrible fate of her
boy. decided to make personal appeal
for his liberty. and, as she moved toward
he bench, many sympathetic glances
were directed toward her. In a voice
choked with sobs and with hands crossed
appeaiingly, the mother began her adj
dress. She spoke about "her boy" and
how she missed his companionship, now
that she was on the downward road OF
life. How her heart was broken over his
wavwardness and how sad it had made
her to think that she had nursed him in
his infancy. cared for and cherished him
in his youth, and her only reward was To
see him with the brand of Cain upon his
forehead. isolated from the world, and as
dead to her as if the clods had fallen on
his coffin. The unfortunate mother was
weeping convulsively when she finished
her appeal. and there We're mists in the
eyes ofthe spectators to the little drama
when Mrs Cascaden retired. Her son

which arises is the admission of both

fore quite likely THAI she battle for the
control OF the Senate viii yes be fought

More English Sympathy.

The English newspapers continue their
comments upon the recent election in the
United States.
The Westminster Gazette says: 'While
Mckinley has triunphed and Wilson has
been defeated, the decision in West Nir-
ginia must be source of great regret TO
many Englishmen. Wilson is man of
high character and broad views, and his
non-success is a distinct loss To Congress"
The Gi0Jc remarks: "The main cause of
the Democratic collapse was the pitiable
weakness displayed by that party over
tariff reform. The Republicans viii make
a profound mistake if they interpret their
astounding victory TO triumph for pro-
lection. What it does represent is the in
dignation and disgust of great and reso-
Lutte nation at being half ruined by feeble
ness and incapacity in high places"
