Stuart on Parole.

The adjourned habeas corpus hearing
in the case of Rev. d. E. Stuart, the
Wyoming minister, against whom war
rants charging murder and other crimes
were issued two weeks ago, did not take
place on Saturday, as arranged. Judge
Woodward, who granted the writ, was
out of town, and the associate Judges
refused to hear the case in accordance
with an established rule of the courts.
Detective Kulp, who arrested the de-
fendant, appeared with Il number of
witnesses and asked that a hearing be
held. Attorneys McQuade and Feist,
for the defendant, demanded of Judge
Halsey that their client be heard or
given his liberty.
Assistant District Attorney Mulhall
said the commonwealth was ready to
proceed with the case, but at the same
asserted that the accused had some
rights. 10 his opinion, there should be
some warrant for depriving the defen-
dant of his liberty.
subsequently, bail was forfeited be-
fore Judge HaIsey, and the accused was
released on parole to answer the sum
mons of the court.
DR.. Whitney, who made an investiga-
tion at the instance of the coroner, saws

From the Mahanoy City Tribune of
November "a last we clip the following
concerning the show which will appear
here Thursday afternoon and evening:
'Prof. Sipe's troupe of trained ami
mails gave performances at Kaier's
opera house on Wednesday and Thurs
day. This troupe of trained horses and
dogs and Prof. Wormwood's ponies.
dogs and monkeys performed number
of feats and many tricks which scarcely
any one would credit to dumb animal
unless an eye witness. They Jump
rope, walk the tight rope, make high
dives and do all manner of tricks. The
monkeys are the best trained in the
world and are really so Imaginable that
one almost needs an extra gridle. To
see the performance is to be cured of
the blues and to miss it should be the
cause for regret of a life time"

Lovers of first-class comedy can find
the real article at the opera house on
Friday evening and Saturday afternoon

plays of that variety in manner that

The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1900-07-06
TOMMY RICE PARDONED.

Governor Nash on the morning of
July Fourth extended clemency to
Thomas j. Rice, one of the oldest
prisoners in the penitentiary in point
of servitude and granted him a full
and free pardon.
Rice is AZ years old. He was sent
from this county for murder in the sec
ond degree and was to have served
the balance of his life If he had not been
pardoned. AS it is he escaped after
eighteen years in the institution.
Attorney Henry w. Harter was
prosecuting attorney at the time Of
Rice's conviction. He said Thursday
morning that he remembered the case.
He said there was a gang of tramps
camped out along the Ft. Wayne rail-
road, about where Stark siding Is now,
located and some of them came to town
to get food or chuck as they called
1t at the trial. After returning a dis
pute arose and a quarrel ensued in
which Rice stabbed his victim in the
heart causing death. He was arrested
and tried for murder in the first de-
gree and convicted for murder in the
second degree and sentenced to the
penitentiary for life.
Mr.. Harter prosecuted the case and
Judge Frease and the late John M.
Myers defended the prisoner.
