Men, he said, should not look so much
upon the exterior of things but upon the
heart within. The order of Odd Fellows
was based upon such fellowship. Its aim
was to assist in uplifting the human race
and teach men that there is golden rule
which bids one do unto others as he
would have others do unto him. The great
trouble seemed to be that mankind so fire.

the local police authorities, and who was
arrested in New York on Tuesday after

with one Elias Turner. now in Maryland.

PLEADING FOR sTRATHERs.
Mrs. Belvn A. Lockwood With Others
Sees the President.


Sees the President.
A last effort was made yesterday by the
friends of William NJ. Strathers to save
his life. He is condemned to die on May
g. for the murder of Rosa Tolbert, whom
he killed while she was sleeping, on the
night OF October Is, 1897.
Mrs. Belva A. Lockwood and two Of the
condemned mans spiritual advisers called
upon President Mckinley and appealed to
him in the name of civilization to COM
mute Strathers' sentence from the death
penalty to imprisonment in the peniten-
tiary for life.
Mrs. Lockwood made an impassioned
plea and said that she regretted the fact
that she had declined to defend Strathers
in court and pleaded for the Communication
of his sentence to life Imprisonment. She
based her argument almost entirely on the
ground that capital punishment is relic
of the barbarous ages and should have
no place in modern civilization. She
emphasized the fact that several of Strath-
ers' relatives have died of insanity.
The petition for Strathers' pardon had
been adversely reported upon by Attorney
General Griggs, Justice Bradley. and Dis
trict Attorney Davis. and President Nc
Kinley had already intimated that he did
not intend to interfere with the course of
justice. Mr.. Mckinley, however, promised
Mrs. Lockwood that he would take the
case under consideration The President
declined to interfere in the Strathers' case.
