A LAWYERS EXPERIENCE.
Story of a Convicted Man, Pardon
and a Pointer.

From the Detroit Free Press.
"a good many years ago. said a we'll
known Michigan lawyer who was reminis-
cencing the other day. II became greatly
interested in a state prison case. A young
farmer was charged with having driven off
ten out of a flock of twelve sheep and sold
them to a butcher. He put up fair de-
tense, but was convicted and sentenced to a
term of three years. .s-
There were plenty of people who believed
that he was perfectly innocent, and even
the butcher who bought the sheep came in
time to doubt IL he had identified the
right party. After the case had stirred up
a whole county / took hand in 1t. In my
petition to the governor l had the evidence
of the young mans father, mother and
sweetheart, and I got eight of the jurors to
sign it. l made out such a good case that
the governor took it under Amusement and
finally agreed to issue pardon. In speak
ing to me Of the case he said:
'''There is no sort of doubt in my mind
that this was a case of mistaken identity
and / shall be only too glad to restore the
young man to liberty
1T became my pleasant duty to drive
seven miles over the muddieSt Of roads to
bear the news to the parents that a pardon
was to be issued The old man was I'M
der the weather and in bed in a room off
the parlor. The wife received me and
sobbed over the good news and then went
in to break it to her husband. That par
tition wall was thin, and they both spoke
In loud tones, and l plainly heard her say:
"'Oh, Samuel, there's a man here who
says our John is to be pardoned tomorrow
You don't say! he exclaimed.
Eyes; it's certainly So
"'Going to be pardoned right out, ehT
eyes; he is
"'Waal, waal, that's good news Say,
Mary, what a fool John was not to get the
other two sheep while he was about it,
Il left the rejoicing farmhouse, intending
to wire the governor to withhold the par
| don,'' said the lawyer, but 1t presently
struck me that l had advanced about
twenty good reasons why the young man
couldn't be guilty. and 1 therefore decided
| to sing small and let things go on. He was
duly pardoned and sent home, and the gov
ernor never met me for years after without
congratulating me in rehabilitating an in
nocent man wrongly convicted!'

was educated. In the early eighties he
went west to Bismarck, in the then terri
tory Of Dakota. Later he went to Butte
Mont, where he held various positions on
the Daily Miner. In 1889 Secretary Garrett
came to Washington and Immediately. en-
rolled in the Columbia Typographical
Union, and has been an active worker in
that organization ever since. Beside hav-
ing been employed in the government
printing office he has worked in a number
of the local offices. He Is recognized as one
OF the most influential men in the organi-
cation. Beside being reelected secretary
OF Columbia Typographical Union at the
last election he was chosen by the highest
vote ever known delegate Of the Interna-
tional Typographical Union to the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor.
The special convention committee of the
Columbia Typographical Union, No. 1O1,
of which Mr.. F. N. Whitehead Is chair
man. Is hard at work in its effort to have
the International Typographical Union
hold its 1903 convention in Washington.
Letters have been sent all over the coun-
try to the various typographical unions to
ascertain the views Of the printers with
respect to that proposition.
The working cards Of the Building Trades
section of the Central Labor Union have
been issued for the quarter beginning July
1. The card. which was adopted by the

OF the many labor organizations OF the
capital city there is none which can COM
pare with the Columbia Typographical
Union, No. 10l, in the matter of age
strength and prestige; there is none which
has grown so rapidly both in the matter OF
membership and influence as that union
1t has grown to it's immense proportions
from a small number of men who assem-
bled as body Saturday evening. December
10. 1914. for the purpose of forming Typo
graphical Society.
AT this meeting it was ordered that a
committee be appointed to draft consti-
tuition. with instructions to model the same.
as nearly may be practicable, by that
of the Philadelphia society. Mr.. Andrew
Tate was chairman of the meeting. Mr.
William Duncan secretary, and Messrs.
Lewis. Coyle Gideon. Soutee and Suter
composed the committee to draft a consti-
tuition. During the following week the COM
mittee held several meetings at an ot1ce at
the corner Of 9th street and pennsylvania
avenue. where, on the Old imposing stone
still in possession of Columbia Topographic
cal Union, was drafted the first constitu-
ton Of the society. This constitution was
adopted at an ADJOURNED meeting held De-
cember IL. 1914.
1t was the next meeting of the printers,
held January Z. 1915. which was really the
birthday anniversary of the society, at
which time the first election of officers of
the then infant organization was held and
resulted as follows: Alexander Graham,
president; William Duncan. vice president:
Andrew Tate. treasurer, and John Suter,
secretary.
The constitution Of the society set forth
at that time that a person to be eligible to
membership must be a resident of the Dis
trict OF Columbia, and must have served an

PHILIPPINE WHISKY,
A Doctor Tells Its Nature and It's Eff
feet on the Soldiers.


From the Philadelphia Medical Journal
Vino Is manufactured in the nipa swamps
around Manila bay and the contiguous la
goons. Nipa does not grow inland or in the
higher lands. The greatest nest Of distil-
leries Is In the vast swamps in the delta OF
the Rio Grande. The parent stalk Of the
nipa fruticans is tapped and the sap col
lected much in the same manner that we
collect maple sap. A native fits out his
banka (wooden dugout, which Is eighteen
to thirty-six feet long and thirty inches
beam, with ten or twelve ollas, or earthen
bowls, holding from three to five gallons
each, and paddles through the narrow wa
terways between the small islands densely
covered with the nipa palm, and frequently
without leaving his position in the banka
can jab a tube into the spongy stem and
tie fast a section Of bamboo to collect the
sap. Making his rounds again he empties
these containers into his ollas and paddles
off to the distilleries. where 1t Is disposed
of for few centavos.
At the distillery the sap is mixed with the
juice Of the sugar cane-about % per cent
Of the latter being used-fermented, distilled
and in a crude way rectif1ed. The product
Is vino. taking that name from the Spanish
word for wine. Vino is a pungent, color
less fiued exhibiting an alcoholic strength
OF from so to 80 per cent and showing some
butyric ether, but I never saw a trace of
amyIic alcohol (fusel OLD.
The Misunderstanding those Of the larger
cities, who have adopted civilized habits
does not get drunk. 1t is a rarity to find a
drunken native. OF the 500 or more natives
We had in our. command we never had a
case Of drunkenness. The only case of in
toxicatton that ever saw among the Mac
cabees was our major domo," or head
| servant, when we lived at Colonial Blanco's,
and he had surreptitiously emptied bottle
Of cocktails that belonged to the command
Ing officer.
The native never drinks vino as it Is In
the market. He dilutes 1t with water adds
sugar and oil OF anise and drinks 1t as
"anisette." In the manner that his civilized
brother takes a cordial. For 'Iong drink
he has bottled beer, made at the native
breweries Of San Miguel in Manila, or Inn
ported Japanese beer.
The intoxication from vino Is purely pro-
found insensibility Of the toxic dose OF alco-
hol. The American soldier saw in vino q
substitute for whisky, and. to the amaze
ment OF the native, took 1t raw and in big
gulps. Az q result he was dead drunk in
remarkably short space Of time.

The Best Way to Serve Chicken.


Bill of fare for Nov. 4th 1902:
Procure two pieces of paper, one
piuk and one white, each with the
picture of a rooster at the top, see
that each fowl is inclosed in a circle,
then decorate each one with an x
within the circle. When
a chicken is served in this manner,
it is warranted to not cause indi-
gestlon, blues, or forebodings of
any kind, but your appetite will be
better, your mind clearer. with a
delicious feeling of security. and
you will feel at peace with all man
kind. Try 1t.
