He Drops the Document at the Feet of
the Convict.
! 1t was dog that brought liberty
I 10 a convict in the Kentucky peniten-
tiary recently. The intelligent brute
acted as a messenger between Gov.
Brown and the felon, carrying the par
/ don in its mouth from the executive
mansion to the prison and, after gain
/ ing admittance. to the recipient of
clemency himself. The dog is the prop
erty of the governor, and the convict
/ IS o. G. Garden, of Louisville, who was
sentenced two years ago TO serve a
term of eight years for manslaughter.
For some time Garden has been en-
ployed as ''trusty" at the executive
mansion, doing chores and running err
rands. The dog, a fne-looliing speci-
men of the shepherd breed, is a fam
lily pet and is unusually intelligent
1t was part of Gardens duties TO look
nfter the animal, and they came to be
fast friends. When the prison doors
were opened IN the morning the collie
was there to meet his convict friend
and accompany him TO the mansion.
At night he returned with his striped
playmate TO the grim portals.
When the pardon was made out il
was suggested that the dog be permit
ted to carry the welcome of freedom
10 his devoted friend. The paper was
Enclosed in stout envelope and given
10 the animal, which was told to 90 TO
the penitentiary. With a wag of it's
tail it left the mansion and ran down
the old accustomed route TO the prison.
A telephone message appraised the
guards of his coming, and he was ad-
mitted without delay.
Garden was in the yard patiently
awaiting the arrival of the governors
messenger, never dreaming that the
dog had been selected. Catching sight
of the well-known face the dog ran up
70 the convict and laid the envelope at
his feet The glad cry of happy sur
prise that the oveTjoyed prisoner gave
vent 10 on catching up the official en-
yelope and tearing it open was re-
echoed by a succession of joyous barks
from the four-footed harbinger of good
tidings.-Cincinnati Enquirer.

Dissgreeable Experience of Burglar
While Pursuing His Vocation.

visit to a state penitentiary, and by the
kindness of the warden he was permit
ted to have an extended talk with the
wickednest man in the prison. This
man had been burglar and tough, had
killed several men in fights, and is now
serving a ten-year sentence for man
slaughter. He was communicative and
his talk was certainly interesting, for
he liked to tell over the stories of his
experience, and he put into his narra-
ton a good deal more life than he had
ever put into his victims.
Tell me-" said the visitor, after an
hours talk, what you consider your

The Lost Mine.

The story of The white cement" mine
IS curious one. One day gold seeker
| named White came into Horse Head
Gulch, CAL, from northern New Next
co, and took out of his pack number
of pieces of what looked like hard
white clay, glitteriDg with specks of
metal. Before night it was known in
the camp that Whites specimens
showed 1000 ounces to the ton. The
excitement was intense. In the morn
ing party called on the owner of the
specimens and told him that he must
pilot the men to his find. He should
have the pick of the claims and help
to work it, but go he must, and, on his
refusal, was warred tina. his life would
not be worth shucks if he "stood off,
the camp. Then he consented. The
trail went down and across the Rockies.
1t led along rocky trails. up aud down
canyons and across mountain crests.
On the evening of the third day White
said the miners were near to their jour
ney's end. Everyone lay down that
night expecting to. rise a millionaire.
In the morning White was gone, and
had left no trace. One-half of the par
ty, after incredible suffering, got back
TO life and civilization; and vet, despite
their story, 100 men started back over
their trail two days after. Three years
after White reappeared in Salt Lake
City with his cement specimens as be
fore, incredibly rich, and again disap-
peared, and from that time to this has
never been heard of. But men still
wear out their lives in seeking this lost
white cement" mine.-Chambers'
