The grand jury in st. Louis
last week, after indicting
six more boodlers, went after the
assignation houses and disorderly
saloons. The grand jury in its
report declared: "a large number
Of the felony cases which we have
considered are directly traceable to
the disorderly saloon and its vi
ciOus influence; fully so per cent.
of assaults and murders are attri-
butable to this source; there are
more than 1900 saloons in St.
Louis, and althO a large public
revenue is derived from them, we
should not forget the fact that our
jails, almshouses and asylums are
filed with their habitues." Note
that last point; it is an actual fact
that there would be but little use
for "jails, almshouses and asy-
lums" in any portion of the State
if it were not for the whiskey dive
and saloon. The license money
does not pay the cost that whiskey

The Presbyterian church of the

John E. kimbalI Pardoned.

News has filtered through to Randolpb
OF the pardon Of John r. Kimball. " no
was serving a sentence OF not less than
two and one-half years and not more than
three years in states prison for bigamy,
having completed about a year Of the
term.
The pardon was procured by LAWYERS J.
c. Enright OF Windsor and &. W. Wing
OF Montpelier, who. with Kimbalis Sec
ond wife, appeared before Gov McCul-
Tough at Montpelier in his behalf April
18th.
II was represented to the governor that
kimbali acted in good faith when he mar
ried the Reed girl, having secured South
Dakota divorce from the Colchester wom-
an which he supposed was genuine. but
which turned out to be fake. No claim
that Kimball had such document as this
was made when he was tried, which seems
very singular, as II might have resulted in
his acquittal.
1t was further represented to Gov. Nc
Cullough that an unreasonable prejudice
existed against kimball in this locality
which interfered with his getting Justice
at the hands Of the court, and that he was
convicted on evidence that would not have
convicted a less unpopular respondent.
This is a queer claim to put forward, and a
serious charge against the court Itself
II was further urged that Kimbau had
property interests that were threatened
by his mother-in TO protect which
II was essential that he be at liberty. The
governor received some letters from
here and elsewhere and a petition con-
tanning quite a list u names praying
for kimball's pardon. conditional
pardon was granted about ten days ago
and Kimball is now out OF prison.
The pardon is not well received here,
where kimball's career il pretty well
known. II Is understood that no notice
was served 70 the counsel who repre-
sented the state OF the application for
pardon. and the claims put forth in
Kim balls behalf were purely ex parte.

been a strong political supporter OF Gov.

sentations he made

home, and who claimed TO have discov-
cred burglars making their exit from the
house. Bloodhounds were brought in
and went straight to the rooms occupied
by Father Walser, who was arrested. He
protested his innocence, and, the proof
beng adjudged insufficient, he was dis
charged after the inquest. Miss Reich

Old Man Turned Out by Daughter
is in Hands of Friends.

Ii is heart. sickeuing at times to
witness incidents showing entire alb
sence of "A sense of filial duty or de.
votion on the part of children And
such an instance was brought forci-
bly, to our notice yesterday.
1t will be remembered that after
George Collins so basely deserted his
wife and his aged father last spring,
Matt Lines accompanied the old gen
tleman to the home of his daughter
in Bsrtonsburg, Missouri. Yesterday
Granpa Collins, as he was familiarly
known in Florence, arrived in Canon
City and made application to the
county commissioners for admission
into the poor house. II. l.. White
'phoned to Mrs. Collins concerning
the matter. She at once directed that
the old gentleman be put up at the
hotel, and last night she and Mrs
Lines went to Canon and brought
him TO Florence. Mrs Collins will
provide him with home as long as
he lives. The old gentleman had
been given ticket to Canon, was
told not to stop in Florence aud then
was lett in the depot at Bartonsburg
at g in the evening to wait until in
the morning for his train.
In comparison with the altitude of
his unnatural daughter back in Mis-
sourI it is refreshing to see this appli-
cation of the milk of human kindness
by one upon whom the poor old man
now under the circumstances had no
claim whatever. GRANDPA Collins has
many friends in Florence WHO will
try to make up in a measure the
emptiness caused by the calloused
heart of an unnatural child.
