The Missing johnson Hardware Dealer
Found.
Chas. A. Riddle, the johnson hardware
dealer, whose mysterious disappearance
was recorded in The Phoenix, was found
last week Thursday in Boston by his cous-
in, w. H. Nye, who brought him TOT Burling-
ton, where he is now resting at DR.. Clark's
Lake View Retreat. Leaving home, Rid
die went to Burlington, thence to Boston,
where he took a boat for Philadelphia. 1t
will be remembered that he sent home $50
from the latter city. After journeying to
Baltimore he partially regained his senses,
and returned to Boston via Philadelphia.
His mind is blank with reference to near
ly all of his trip. 1t is thought that the
alteration was brought on by illness and
that he will soon recover.
Petitions for Pardon for Bennington
Murderers.
An attempt is now being made to secure
the pardon of two Bennington county MUIR
derers who are serving sentences at Wind
sor. Byron V. Roberts, who killed Lewis
Walker in Woodford, was convicted in
1899, and sentenced to prison for 10 years.
He is now in precarious condition. Gov.
Fuller, to whom petition asking for Rob
erts's pardon was presented, recently Wis
tied the scene of the crime. John Gun
shannon, for whose pardon relatives are
circulating a petition, received life sem
tence in 1888, for the murder of his uncle
Gunshannon has only one arm; his accom-
plice, John Keenan,, who also received
life sentence, has only one leg; John Con-
don, who was tried for completely in the
crime but acquitted, has only one eye. 1t
has been claimed that keenan, caused the
death of Gunshannon's uncle by breaking

NEW YORK, Oct. %. - O'Donovan
Rosa has sent letter to President
Cleveland protesting against the action
of Edwin F. Uhl, assistant secretary
of state. in refusing to issue a passport
to him. although he has been voting
here a number of years on papers
granted by Judge Larrimore in the
court of common pleas. Feb. 81, 1871,
Mr.. UhPs ruling was to the effect that
the papers were worthless ON the
ground that the qualifications of five
years continuous residence had not been
complied with. Mr.. Ubl's decision, Mr..
Rosa says, prevented him from visiting
Great Britain, where he had contracted
to lecture, and compelled his return to
this country from the continent of Eu-
rope. Before going to Europe in May
he applied for the passports in the reg
ular manner. and did not discover that
they had been refused until his wife
wrote to him on the other side of the
water. In his complaint to President
Cleveland he inquiries whether Mr.. Uhl
is an Englishman, an Orangeman or a
member of the A. P. A.
He gives an account of his applica-
tloll loI HIS HTSI papers, OI MS arrest
and incarceration in English prisons up
to January, 1871, and says that upon his
return to America Justice Larrimore
issued the second papers by virtue of
the constitutional clause which says:
Five years consecutive residence"
holds good for the man who has taken
out his first papers and leaves the coun-
try with the intention of returning, but
who is detained in a manner that makes
it impossible for him to return, and
who returns as soon as he can. Rosa
wants to vote at the coming election
and says he cannot again apply for
second papers because the judges have
ordered the arrest of persons who hav-
ing once secured second papers file ap-
plications for second issue.

bricks and mortar. Miraculously
enough, she escaped serious injury.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 22.-The steam
whaler Narwhal. came into port this
morning, and landed the happiest lot of
whalers that has arrived here this sea-

regions extended over period of thirty
two months. During that time she took
thirty-nlne whales, which it is estimated
will net her owners nearly half million
dollars The men in the forecaStle,
figuring on their pro rata of the profits
of the cruise. estimate that they have
$1,000 each coming to them, and, of
course. are jubllant. Ike Narwhal's
big catch was made last year in the
vicinity of Mckenzie river. Telling of
their experience today, the whalers
declared that during their phenomenal
run OF luck they could not kill all the
whales that came up to blow, and that
sometimes their men in the boats found
themselves in the middle of school
and In danger of being lifted out of the
water by whales coming to the surface
The Narwhal lost but one life during
the cruise. John Egan was caught in q
