ALICE WHITE PARDoNED.
The Governor Thinks She Has Been
Sufhciently Punished.

Atlanta, Ca, Oct. 12.-Alice White, the
Savannah girl, who, as convict has had
a very. sensational record, has been par
doned by Gov. Northen. The girl who is
vet in her teens, was convicted of kid
mapping, and sent to the camp at Heard
mont, Elbert coutny, to serve a term of
five years. She has served about half that
time, and the presumption that she has
already Leen sufficiently punished, to-
gether with the recommendation of Judge
Falligant, Solicitor General Fraser and
the jury which convicted her. induced
the governor to restore her liberty as one
OF the last acts of his administration.
About a year ago Alice White escaped
from the penitentiary. At that time she
enjoyed the distinction of being the only
white woman in the Georgia penitentiary
her escape was surrounded by circum-
stances that caused suspicion to be cast
upon the officials, and her recapture was
also attended with unusual features To
get at the bottom of the case Gov
Northen had a special investigation made
Ihe report Of this INVESTIGATION exhoner-
ated the officials.
The girl created another sensation in
camp by claiming that she was whipped
brutally by the overseer. Her mother
came TO Atlanta and begged Gov.
Northen to pardon her on the ground that
she had determined to reform, but the gov
ernor was immovable.
Alice Whites crime was sending a
young girl to a house kept by a woman of
notorious character, where she was
detained. Her defense was that the girl
went voluntarily, knowing the character
of the place, but the evidence showed
that Alice pretended to be sending the
girl to dressmaker's.
Solicitor General Fraser and Judge Falli-
CANT OF the superior court, before whom
Alice White was tried and convicted on
charge of kidnapping, were, to certain
extent, instrumental in the matter of her
pardon. A day or two ago Gov Northen
wrote to both of them with regard to
the prisoner, asking their opinion in the
case, and the advisability of releasing her
from confinement in the penitentiarv.
Both replied at once, indorsing the petit
tion and asking that she be pardoned.
They stated that they thought the law
had been vindicated, that she had been
sufficiently punished, and they thought
there might be some chance for her moral
betterment If she was released, and they
were of the opinion that she should be
given that chance. Her term of imprison-
ment has been a hard one, and the punish
ment has no doubt been a severe lesson to
her. She will likely return to her rela-
tives here and begin her new life.

To Celebrate the Opening of tho

William Morris Hayes has plan for
the celebration of the beginning Of the
twentieth century of the Christian era
by an exposition tc be held in this city
during the year 1900 Mr.. Hayes has In
.e course of preparation detailed plan
embodying all the important features of
the proposed celebration. which he will
soon lay before the representative men
OF this city with a view to the organiza-
ton of a committee to arrange the pre-
lminary details.
He believes New York can. from the
lessons drawn from the Chicago Exposi-
ton and it's management, far excel Chi
cago in the matter of an exposition for
1900, with much less money. The Chicago
Exposition paid, he urges; why cannot a
celebration in New York?
Mr.. Hayes has had considerable expert
ence in exposition work and believe II
the right support is given. New York
will have an exposition in 1900 which will
far surpass anything Of the kind that
has yet been conceived.
