ARRANGE LETTER
Explains the Plans of the Almighty in
Creating the World.

Creating the WOrId.
j.. F. Kelly, prominent business man Of
Butte, Mont, who recently killed himself,
left the following letter, which contains
some queer philosophy, and is curiosity
in its way
To My Wife: When God Almighty made
the earth, he looked at same and said to
himself, We'll done, old boy, we'll done.
Could he have stopped then he would have
been all right, but like the boy who whit
ted out a boat, he had to have water and
something to occupy the boat. He started
to occupy the world and began with the
beautiful and good. Very quickly he ran
out of material for making good things,
and then of course had to take a second
grade of clay and consequently had to stop
making angels and nice people, but the
world had to occupied and of course God
had to fill it up with something. Of course
he picked out the best material to fill his
world with, but they had to be graded and
of course as he used up each grade the
quality deteriorated. He used the best first
and kept right on trying to fill the world
with everything that was beautiful and
good, but he could not do so; the material
ran. out But the world had to be filled
and he done so; selecting among all things
the best of the bad. He had got to the end
Of the string, had just used up all the toads,
cells, and snakes but he was still one short,
and had to fill in with me.

OPPRESSIVE RESPONSIBILITY
'Sympathies Of the Blaine Household
Brought 4 Respite to q Condemned

|. MAN
/ Ex-President Harrison's paper on
.'This Country Of Ours" in the June
Ladies' Home Journal, treats Of 'The
Pardoning Power and Impeachment. !"
OF the former he cites an incident in
showing the oppressive responsibilities
It places upon the shoulders Of Presi-
dent. He says:
"A reprieve is temporary suspension
Of the execution of a sentence. This
power is often used for the purpose OF
giving the President time to examine
an application for a pardon, or to enable
the condemned to furnish further evil
dence in support Of such an application.
In the summer Of 1889 an application for
pardon in behalf Of a man condemned
to death for murder was presented to me,
and after careful examination the ap-
piication was denied. On the day before
the day fixed for the execution arrived
at Bar Harbor on visit to Mr.. Blaine,
and found that just before my arrival a
telegram had come asking for reprieve.
The message had been teIephoned to Mr..
Blaine's house and received by Mrs.
Blaine Her sympathies, and those OF the
whole household were at once enlisted
for the poor fellow, and though the glib
bet was over twelve hundred miles away
the shadow of it was over the house and
Twas the hangman. A telegram to the
United States marshal granting short
reprieve was sent, and the day Of the ex-
ecution was again my uncomfortable Sc
cret. 1t is not pleasant thing to have
the power of life and death. No graver or
more oppressive responsibility can be laid
upon public officer. The power to par
don includes the power to commute a
sentence, that is, to reduce it. When the
sentence is death the President may
commute it to imprisonment for life, or
any fixed term; and when the sentence
is Imprisonment for life, or for fixed
term of years, he may reduce the term
Of imprisonment, and if fine is imposed
he may reduce the amount, or remit 1t"

The annual stated meeting OF the

AS only those who were residents OF

Patrolman Dunlap's Alertness Averted
 a Serious Accident.
 Patrolman Robert Dunlaps alertness and bravery saved a child yesterday afternoon from being run down by a rapidly driven team at the corner of State and Chapel streets. The plucky officer heard a scream, which came from a twelve year old girl named Mamie Loshe, living at IF Water street. She and a companion about the same age, were lodging a trolley car, when they saw the team bearing down upon them. Mamie's companion, who was a few feet in advance, suc- ceeded in getting out of the way, but Mamie was so startled that she seemed to loose presence of mind as to any at- tempt to get out of the way. Her cries attracted Patrolman Dunlap's atten- tion. At the risk of being seriously in- jured he sprang for the girl. So close was the team upon the little girl that the horse struck Dunlap's boot as he passed, nearly tripping the officer.
 The scene of the accident is one of the most crowded thoroughfares of the city during the busy days preparing for the Christmas holidays,
 The electric cars, pedestrians and teams keep the officers stationed at this corner constantly on the lookout that no accident occurs
