BARKER SET FREE AT LAST.
Man Who Shot the Rev John A. Kellar
 Released on Parole.

Man Who Shot the Rev John A. Kellar
 Released on Parole.
 Trenton, July 1.-The board of pardons, sitting in Sea Girt yesterday, paroled Thomas c. Barker, who was serving five years in state prison here for shooting the Rev John A. Kellar in Arlington on February 3, 1091.
 Barker said he was justified in shoot ing the clergyman, whom he accused Of having wronged his wife. The town of Arlington, where both men lived, was divided in it's sympathies. The Rev Mir Keller lost his sight as result of the wound. He denied he had injured Barker or his wife.
 Barker lay in hiding for Kellar after he had heard the confession of ms wife. Sprfnging from his place or concealment he fired four shots. The first struck Kellar at the outer corner of the right eye, tore out that organ, clipped the optic nerve of the left eye and lodged in the skull on the left side. Barker walked away from the fallen clergyman and gave himself up to the police. He was found guilty of as sault with intent to kill and was sen- fenced on June 29, 1901, to five years hard labor. He has served two years and twelve days.
 Many persons in Arlington rerused to. believe Mrs Barker's story, but an equally large number thought Barker was justified in his action, and they have been trying ever since to nave him released.

 Across in 17-Foot Open Boat.
 Halifax, N. S., July n.-A dispatch from Sydney states that Captain How ard Blackburn, who set out some time ago on a voyage from Gloucester, Mass, to Havre, France, in II-foot open dory, and who was reported by the schooner Colonia, expressing his deternsin to persevere in his trip, put in at Louisburg. O. B., yesterday. badly used up and thoroughly discour- aged.
 He encountered tempestnous weather during the last few, days and was not able to get far away from the Nova Scotia coast. On one occasion the little boat in which he sailed was up set and the lome voyager came within an ace of being drowned. His stores were badly damaged.
 Captain Blackburn says it is unlike Fy that he will continue his attempt to cross the ocean, though he succeeded in doing this on former occasion, and he will probably return to Gloucester by vessel. If not able to get a pas sage in that way he will go by rail.

Sentence Deferred to Monday by Judge
 Robinson in Superior Court.
 New Haven, July 1.-The cases Sullivan, striking teamsters, charged with conspiracy and assault on John Kinney, non-union teamster employed by the Peck & Bishop Go, went to the jury. shortly before 3 o'clock yester- day, and after being out little over half an hour a verdict of guilty was returned on. both counts. Sentence was deferred by Judge s. A. Robinson to Monday.
 r The closing arguments were made during the forenoon by Attorney James M. Sullivan for the defense and States Attorney Williams for the prosecution. Each made a, powerful argument. After the verdict was in States Attor- ney Williams and MT Sullivan each had a few words to say as to the punish ment. MT Williams asked for a jail sentence on the assault charge and a term in the penitentiary on the conspir- acy charge. Attorney Sullivan asked for a light. sentence on both stating that the latter was a minor offense.
 The next case to be taken up was that against Timothy Bronson, another of the striking teamsters, charged with an assault on Minot A. Smith of Derby in this city, May IS. Bronson pleaded not guilty.
 The first witness was Smith, who testified that he brought wagon here to be repaired at smedley's, May IS. MT Smedley asked him to drfvea four horse rig to Westville, while his own wagon was being repaired, and he con- sented to do it. While driving down Water street he met Bronson and Free man, who asked him to take the team back to the stable. He told them to mind their own business and he would attend to his, then drove on.
 As he was returning late in the after noon he saw the two men again in Olive street ans they pursued him to Water street. where they obtained stones and threw them at him. He said Bronson threw four stones at him, but was not certain whether Freeman threw any or not At the conclusion of Smiths testimony court was adjourned to Monday morning.

Rome, July 11.-To-day brought to a close a full week since Pope Leo was stricken with illness, and it found him still battling against death. Last night he enjoyed considerable periods of repose. Dr Lapponi remained near the sick room throughout the night There was little occasion for his ser vices. When Dr Mazzoni joined him in the sick chamber at S:30 o'clock this morning they found that their pa tient had not suffered any serious de- pression in the night, although the same terrible weakness was still mani fest
 The usual bulletin was issued at 9 o'clock and it showed that the condi- tionss in the sick room were practically unchanged, the pulse, temperature and respiration being almost identical with those maintained yesterday. The most cheering feature of the bulletin diate aggravation of the pleuric condi- tions.
 Within the great co4onnade fronting g St Peters there continued the same gathering of anxious crowds, with steady lines of cardinals and dfstin- guished members of the diplomatic corps proceeding to the inner court of the vatican to learn the result of the doctors conference. Even before day light groups gathered at the entrance seeking the latest information.
 The weather conditions here are ideal and contribute greatly to the comfort of the patient. Usually Rome reeks in midsummer with the fierce heat of the sun and exhalations from the surrounding marshes, but now the elements are lending every encouragement toward the recovery of the illustrious patient. The sun shines from cloudless sky and the heat is tempered by balmy westerly breeZes. The temperature seldom rises above S5 degrees Fahrenheit during the day and the nights are refreShingly cool.
 An affecting interview has occurred between the pont1ff, Cardinal Satolli and three other cardinals representing various degrees of the sacred college Cardinal Satolli and his companions were admitted to the presence of the earnest entreaties. In the gentlest manner, Cardinal Macchi speaking for all, told the pontiff of the universal in terest taken in his condition, adding: Prayers are going up everywhere that the lord may preserve for the benet1t of the church the precious life of your holiness"

captain of the Vessel Discovery Made
 Some Valuable Finds

San Francisco, July 11.-Captaln William Colebeck of the relief ship Morning, tender to the exploring shnp Discovery, now in the south pole re- pions. is here en route to London to report. He says the main work of the Discovery has been the location of between 400 and 500 miles of new coast line and she worked as far south as latitude T7 degrees 59 minutes south. By sleds the members of the party got as far south as S2 degrees 17 minutes south Aitude, farther south than any - mas before gone.
 4 lot of new marine fauna had been discovered, also some marine plants, but they are very low type of organ iziSm. Seals abound, but the polar bear and the walrus are not there. No new large animals were found. The cold there is far worse than Tn the Arc tie. Tn the latter region in the sum- mer time the temperature gets up to 50 and 60 degrees above zero. Tn the Antarctic region below zero is summer weather. Valuable geological. seis- mic and meteorological data have been secured.

SLEEPING IN HE PARKS.
New York Police Ordered Not
 to Disturb Slumberers,

Rigid Rule in the Big City
 Men and Boys Sleeping for Two
 Nights in the Open Aair.
 New York, July 11.-Thousands of persons slept peacefully in the parks of Greater New York during the night, despite the heat, secure in the knowl- edge that no policeman would awake them and drive them back to their oVen-lke tenements, lodging houses and thickly populated apartment build 1ngs. One of the most rigid police rules was ordered suspended and the officers in all fe>oroughs were notified to see that no orderly person availing himself of the priv ilege was disturbed. The sus- pension of the rule will continue during the heated term.
 It has become almost imperative that some such relief measure should be taken by the city officials. Men and boys had been sleeping for two nights on benches and lawns all over the city, inviolation of the police reguka tions, and as a general thing the patrolman did not have the heart to disturb them.

cuIex punxens at Montelair.

MUNTCLAIR, N. J., July 11.-Wom- en residents here to escape torture from the increasing number of mosquitoes have adopted a new headdress. In their hair they place lighted Chinese joss sticks and wear them in their movements about town. The fad has grown to such an extent that the store keepers have bought large supply of the sticks and are doing a good busi- ness. The plague of mosquitoes is more severe than ever before. The pest is not the ordinary marsh mosquito but is of a breed known as the Culex pungens.
