an argument before him upon the
question of pardoning Miss Rose Zol-

for the alleged murder of Ella Maley

There are great many things which
lead US to believe that Miss Zoldoske
IS not guilty. We are satisfied that
her conviction was upon insufficient
evidence and that her defense was
poorly conducted. We trust she will
be pardoned. The New Star Dodge

surprised. responded feelingly and
thanked the ladies for their consider

The present to the Post was from
Mrs. Chatiield. who in few graceful
and well turned remarks, called at
tention to the interest which now at
taches to war relics; presented the
picture, taken at Gettysburg, OF a
seventeen-year-old boy rugged out for
dress parade; and explained that
when the picture was received by
her over thirty years ago, she had
been informed ..that it was only a
little Budd that would one day
blossom into full flower" and
that watching the exercises Of the
evening she observed that the little
Budd had blossomed into the flower of
the Tom Cox Post.
Rev Macs was invited to address
the company and made some stirring
remarks which were well received by
his auditors. Later, every body sang
army songssand had a good time.

The writer Rev McKillop is prom

Church of Milwaukee.
MILWAUKEE. Wis, JAN. Urn
DEAR BROTHER MILEs:-In refer
ence TO Rev. i. l.. Sovieski and wife,
they are members of our church ia
good standing. They are well known
in the city. He was priest in the
city for many years; his wife was a
sister or nun here for the same time;
they are what they represent them
selves to be.
| baptised them both. but they had
left the Catholic Church some wears
before they joined the Baptist Church
they were for some time members OF
NJ. f.. Church.
Treat them kindly for they are
certainly to be pitied for they are con
stantly followed Nv misrepresentation
Their past training has made them
a little peculiar but they have our en-
tire confidence. Treat them kindly
for Christ's sake; there seems TO be
no place for them in this world.
They need to be sheltered and help
ed rather than prosecuted.
Your brother in Christ.

Frank Granger, the accommodating
hostler at the Wright house. met with
painful accident a few days ago
While riding a horse, the animal
reared up and Frank, fearful of being
fallen upon and crushed, jumped from
its back to the ground. 1t was icy
and he fell, whereupon the horse
kicked him in the head infiiciing a
severe scalp wound.
A friend of Rev. Sovieski received a
letter from him on Mondays mail
stating that the little daughter had
lost the sight of her other eye and is
now totally blind. and that he himself
is still suffering from the effects of
the qulnsy. He expects to return to
Lancaster in the near future if he gets
able to travel. Many of his friends
express the hope of his speedy recoy-
cry and return asserting the belief
that his work in this vicinity is not
completed but only just begun.
