But she doesn't get "all right" She

She has lost faith in him; hope van

Her doctor, if he knew, should lave

and she was allowed to suffer. BY
chance she came across one of Mrs.

her very symptoms described and an
explanation of what they meant. Then

Indianapolis, May 29.-Ten years in
the penitentiary. That is the reward Jno.
F. Johnson has earned by robbing and
wrecking the State National bank, of
Logansport. Judge Baker pronounced
the sentence yesterday morning on a
plea CT guilty by the prisoner. John
sons wife, devoted in time Of trial, was
present, and neither she nor her hus-
band showed signs Of emotion. Mrs.
Johnson was heavily yelled, however,
and her face could not be seen. John
son will doubtless prove a model pris-
oner, and in doing this will reduce his
time TO about seven years. The court
room was crowded during the pleading
and sentence and the chief culprit had
to sit by and see q number Of ordinary
criminals get their deserts, one getting
a year for passing five counterfeit
dimes.
