The prisoner not only explained away
the points bearing hardest against her,
but accused the broker so circumstan-
TALLY that it seemed to be case where
he had evoked the law to carry out a
private spite. She spoke without halt
ing or hesitating. She seemed to an
ticipate every question and have an
answer ready 1t was not her words
alone, but she knew just where to fetch
a smile and where to shed a tear and
at times she looked so sad and heart
broken that you wanted to pat her on
the mead and tell her to put on her hat
and walk out. 1t may be a mean thing
to give the commissioner away, but I'll
bet boots to buttons that he was a bit
stuck on our prisoner when he left the
institution
l don't know how things would have
turned out in the matter of securing a
new trial or a pardon had not some
thing occurred to render further pro-
ceedlngs useless. The doctors wife
was an almost daily caller at the pris-
on, and Of course she had the run of
the place. She was greatly interested
In Miss Saunders, but not foolish
enough to help her to escape 1t
amounted to the same thing, however.
She brought laudanum to cure a sup
POSITIONS toothache, and in return Miss
saunders gave her q dose of it in
something they were drinking together
IN the matron's private room. When
the ulug mad taken effect the fair priS-
oner dressed herself in the others raj
ment and passed the guards and got
safely away.
The search for her was only half
hearted and she made good her escape
and later on we heard that she was
living in France. Her escape could not
be concealed from the public this time
although every effort was made &c
hush things up. The papers got hold of
it and made the most of it, and the
governor was so cut up that he resign
ed and was followed by most of his
staff. The doctors wife claimed to be
innocent of all intent, and she proba-
bly, was, but her husband lost a good
situation and she passed three months
in a county Jail before the authorities
finally dropped the case against her.
AS Tor the London commissioner. he
told me later on that he would have
recommended full pardon had not
Miss Saunders escaped. 1t was well for
England's peace of mind that she was
forced to fee the country.-(C Copyright

Of a nation that had just accomplished
one of the most ennobling and self

IaYless spirit in President Roosevelt.
when he, as Governor, removed Dis
trict Attorney GardineF. The New
York Times comments upon the I'm
termyer letter and says editorially:
This newspaper was not reckoned
among the ardent admirers of District
Attorney Asa Bird Gardiner We de-
plored and censured his indiscretions,
personal and official, and al any mo-
ment during his term of Office we
should have acclaimed a successor TO
him appointed in conformity with the
provisions of law. Yet when Governor
Roosevelt removed Mr.. Gardiner we
were compelled to declare that the &C.
ton he had taken was wanton, law
less, and a dangerous usurpation of
power. The Commissioner appointed
by Governor Roosevelt to hear the
charges against Colonel Gardiner had
reported that they we're not proved,
and that no action should be taken.
Subsequently, without further hearing,
and, as this community pretty general
iy believed, without proper cause, ne
Governor removed the District AtsGT-
ney and appointed Mr.. PhiIbin il his
place.
1T was a perfectly characteristic
act, yet New Workers did not Know
then that it was characteristic of Mr..
Roosevelt They would have been dis
posed to regard it as a sporadic out
break. They now know by repeated
exhibitions of Mr.. Roosevelt's disre-
gard of law that having his own way,
either with or against the statutes and
the Constitution, is a confirmed habit
with him. The Gardiner incident is il
Illustrative of the Roosevelt tempera-
ment."
