LONG TIME.
To Get over Hurt of Coffee.


1t sometimes takes long period to get
over the effects of coffee drinking. A
little woman in Wadesboro, N. c., says

from dyspepsia, stomach trouble, nervous
ness and the train of disorders that fol

Characteristic Gem Of Short Speech
---Aon. R. W. Scot Makes

Once again the Academy of Music wa

REASONS FOB PARDON
AND COMPUTATION.
Roscoe Murrow Would Soon Die, and There is
Doubt About Wick in the Minds Of
the Jury.

The Governor yesterday gave out his
reasons for the pardoning of Roscoe Muir
row and the committing of the sentence
Of Fred. Wick.
Roscoe Murrow is the young white man
who was convicted in the Guilford county
court in February 1902 of carnally know
ling female child under fourteen years
of age and sentenced to seven years on the
county roads.
The reasons for the pardon are as fol-
lows:
'"The prisoner is pardoned at the request
of more than three thousand citizens of
Guilford and Randolph counties and upon
the certificate of physicians that his health
has been greatly impaired by imprison-
ment, and that longer confinement will re-
suit in his death. The doctor makes affi-
davit that prisoner is a wreck; that he
has disease of the heart which incapacitates
him from work the heart being greatly
lenlarged. He has become almost entirely
blind in one eye while the vision in the
Iother eye is greatly impaired. The crime
with which he stands convicted is a hor-
Irible one and justly deserves the seyerest
punishment, but it is not believed that
either justice or public opinion requires
| the death penalty in this case and 1T APP
pears to be certain that longer confinement
will lead, to this result. 1t also appears
that the offence committed by prisoner
was done several years before his lndlct-
ment, and that he was not indicted until
after ne had married. His conviction and
Imprisonment have brought to wreck his
young and innocent wife, who from a
strong, healthy woman has been reduced
! by suffering until she weighs today only
eighty pounds. 1t seems to me in view
Of all the facts and circumstances that
justice has been met and the hour for
mercy has come"
Fred. Wick is the young negro convict
ed of rape upon a colored woman at the
November 1902 term of the Wayne county
court, and sentenced to be hanged at
Goldsboro on May 10th On May 9Th he
was respited until the Both, and a few
days ago, as published at the time. the
sentence was committed to life imprison-
ment
Here are the Governors reasons for the
commutation:
THE death penalty in this case is com
uulCu 10 imprisonment III inc ptilbeHbldIy
at hard labor for life. This course is taken
at the earnest request of all the jury who
tried him, some of them expressing grave
doubt as to the contamination of the pur-
pose OF the prisoner. Many of the best
citizens of the county have earnestly
joined in the request. 1t appears from
the evidence in the case that the prose-
cutrix at first stated that the prisoner did
not accomplish his purpose. She after
wards changed her statement and the jury
convicted him upon her changed story
The change in her statement caused in the
minds OF judicious persons grave doubt
Of the guilt of the prisoner. In view of
these facts and of the youthfulness Of the
prisoner it is thought that impr ynment
at hard labor for life meets the ends Of
justice"

VIM. Prescott and j. j. freeman Become
Partners in Antlers at Grand Forks.

Fargo Forum, Nov. ID: For two weeks
there have been persistent rumors in
Fargo and Grand Forks about the sale
and future OF the new Antlers Hotel, a
new enterprise opened in Grand Forks
several months ago, but which under the
management in charge does not seem to
have been a financial success. The
owners of the building and furniture,
two weeks ago made approaches to
William Prescott of the hotel Prescott
in this city with the view ofinducing him
to take hold of the business, he being an
experienced hotel man, and we'll known
up at the Forks. This week very active
negotiations have been in progress and
adeal has been closed and the transfer Of
ne ntlers was formally contaminated
tonight.
In the enterprise MIR. Prescott and !. !.
Freeman OF this city have become ~assoCi-
ated and they have concluded a lease of
the Antlers and have bought the furni-
ture and fixtures or a cash basis and
each will have half interest. Mr.. Pres
colt states that the deal will in no way
affect the Hotel Prescott. Hesays it is
too good Il business to %relinquish and his
lease has several years to run vet and he
and his wife will remain in Fargo and
manage tine Prescott. The Antlers at
the Forks will be under the supervision
of Mr.. and Mrs. Freeman who will move
to Grand Forks at onc and take up their
residence in the hotel there.
Mr.. Prescott and MI. and Mrs. Free
man went to the northern metropolis
this afternoon to finally close the deal.
Mr.. Freeman states that his photo
studio business in Fargo will continue
as it is and will be in charge of J. A
Hubertz.
