lawyers would have had no trouble
in proving that the animal was
spawned, and ringboned. and de-
crepit and not worth a nickle, and
the young man would have gotten
off. But thirty dollars is thirty
dollars-under the gold standard
and man has to suffer the penalty.
The fact that the young man paid
debts with part OF the stolen money,
would to me have been a mitigat-

patrons, a short term in Canon

their part well, while the boys, al
though they belong to the bachelor

modesty and went in to please
those present. When those boys
are put to work they never shirk
duty. Seven gallons of cream and
three gallons of oysters, with the
necessary trimmings, supplied the

A fond mother corrected her lit
tie son for telling story, remark
ing that il he was untruthful he
could not possibly go to Heaven.
His small lordship pondered over
that punishment for some time,
and finally determined to find out
who would be his companions in
punishment. He launched the
question at his mother, "Did you
ever tell story, mother2" His
mother had to admit she had. Then
he assailed his father, and his father
too, had to admit that he had told
stories. The little fellow pressed
his inquiries still further, and
found that everyone had told stor-
les; so he delivered his conclusions
to his mother by saying: "Well,
l don't want to go to Heaven; it
would be too lonesome there; no
one but Jesus and George Wash

witnessed an affecting scene in
the district court room one day
this week. A youth of 20 was on
trial on charge of burglary. He
purloiIed $50 in cold cash and ad-
mitted the fact. With the major
portion Of the sum he paid some
debts that he owed, spent part of
it for "booze, "'and the remainder
was returned to the person from
whom it had been distracted. The
young man had an honest face aud
told straight forward story, and 1
for one, believed every word of it.
When the judge asked him his rea
son for taking the money. he limo
Gently replied that it looked SO
.seasy'' that he had not the least
idea that any one would ever sus-
picion him of it. The law is mex
orable and its mandates must be
obeyed, and the judge was obliged
to sentence him to the reform
school. The young man followed
the sheriff out of the court room
and back to jail with tears stream
ing down his cheeks, and l had
work to restrain q whimper or two
myself. There is no sentiment in
law and ! don't believe l would
make good judge. The officers
Of the court all sympathized with
the young man and regretted, ! be
lieve, the-action that it was neces-
sary to take in this case-at least
they gave evidence Of it afterward
when they all signed q petition to
the governor asking for : pardon.
Citizens Of Rocky Ford, who had
known the young man since his in
fancy, testified to his previous good
character and blamed whisky as
the cause Of his downfall. II the
young man had stolen . horse, the
