Helena. Oct 2.-Through the action of
the state pardoning board. James II.
Denning of Butte is again free man in
the eyes of the law and will be made
free in fact as soon as the usual for
malities can be gone through with al
Deer Lodge state penitentiary.
Governor J. X. Toole decided on Den
ning's pardon Aug. so and at that time
presented the matter to the pardon
board. The prisoners wife had been in
defatisable in her efforts to secure a
petition to which We're signed the names
of the jurymen who voted her husband
guilty. and the prosecuting witnesses,
as we'll as a letter from Judge Henry c..
Smith, who presided at the trial. Con-
ley & McTague, the prison contractors,
also wrote letter to the governor, rec
ommending Denning's release.
The offense fer which he was impris-
oned was committed in Helena. June l.,
1900. He was arrested for uttering two
bogus checks and was Jailed to await
trial. He was prosecuted on only one
of the checks at first. He pleaded guilty
and was sentenced to fourteen months
in the state prison.
On the way to the Jail Denning made
a dash for liberty, but was soon recap
tured. This act on his part resulted in
his being tried a second time for the is
suance of the second check. He pleaded
not guilty this time, but the Jury de-
cided otherwise. and he was given a
cumulative sentence of eighteen months
In prison.
TIL fourteen months for which he was
first sentenced expired Aug. %. 1t was
believed then that he had sufficiently
paid the penalty for his crime and the
movement looking to his release took
definite form.

Soaking Corn for Hogs.

The farmer who has nice lot Of
shoats. some old corn and only stalks
from this years corn crop will want
to make his old corn tell for all it is
worth in making pork Of his shoats
before turning them OF.
To such one an experiment in
soaking corn for hogs carried on by
West Virginia experiment station may
be suggestive.
Observation-Disclosures and Po-
land China-Berkshire cross-bred pigs
we're used in the experiment. They
were divided into two lots similar in
respect Of size. breed and sex. From
carload Of western corn sufficient
was produced for the experiment. 4
portion Of this was ground into meal
and the remaining shelled corn was
soaked in water as needed until ih e
grains were soft. The meal was
mixed with water before being fed
No attempt was made TO feed the same
quantities OF meal and soaked corn,
but each lot was fed all that it would
eat mp clean.
The lot fed soaked corn consumed
PISS pounds Of corn and gained in
weight 555 pounds For 100 pound
in live weight they consequently re-
quired SS5 pounds 81 corn The LOT
fed on corn meal required 40 pounds
81 meal tor 100 pounds gain. there
fore the soaked corn produced his
more economical gain. 70 say nothing
about the extra expense Of grinding
the corn.
A. very few experiments have ever
been performed 10 determine the eft
feet q soaking grain upon its digest
Utility. the subject requires further
study The result T this experiment
indicates. however. that it is goo,
practice.

Friday a Fateful Day.

Superstitious persons will lind fresh
confirmation for their beliefs in study
OF the dates upon which three presi-
dents OF thesUnted States were assas-
sinated. Attention is called to the
fact that each was shot on Friday and
that President Mckinley died on Fri
dav. thel tl OF the month. The latter
statement is somewhat strained in
view Of the fact that the reports give
the hour Of death at 2:15 Saturday
morning, the l4th, but those who are
superstitious claim that death practice
ally ensued Friday. President Lin
coin was shot Friday. Apr. II. 1860.
President Garfield was shot Friday,
July ,, 1882. President Mckinley
was shot Friday, Sept. 8, 1901. The
dates afford coincidents enough with
out straining point TO add to the
list. It Will be largely appropriate,
however, 20 add to the list the dis
tinction of the life Of the assassin Of
Mckinley on some Friday in the near
future ANY Friday, so it is soon.
