DEcEPrIoN.-A tramp in a down.
town street accosted a business man
the other day, and, in most piteous
tone whined:
Gould you spare a dime for a man
whose two hands are paralyzed and
can't do no work?"
I'm deaf" replied the man, kindly,
Write down what you have to say"
The tramp looked surprised. Deaf
eh," he muttered to himself. "Well'
here goes" So he wrote on the back
of a letter furnished by the business
man the following:
I've got a wife and six children
starvin' at home and I've been out OF
work a year. I'm in drefful state OF
destertution."
He handed the script to the business
man, who, after reading it, said: Il
thought you said you were paralyzed
in both hands and yet you can write"
"Durn it." exclaimed the tramp
didn't yes say We were deaf?"
"Yes, just to find out If you were an
impostor, as suspected" was the re-
ply Of the business man as he turned
away.
"You amt no gentleman for impos-
ing on a poor devil" yelled the tramp
after the man.

oYAMA's, GREAT STRATEGY.
Superior Numbers and Russian Lack
of Initiative Help This.


of Initiative Help This.
While prominent officers Of the army
are prohibited. under the order Of the
president, from commenting on the
progress Of the war in the far East,
says a Washington dispatch to the
Baltimore Sun, the general staff was
much interested in today's press re-
ports announcing the fall Of Mukden.
They talked freely over the remark
able strategy shown by Marshal Oya-
ma and his assistant generals. One
prominent officer of the general stafr,
whose recognized ability and high
rank make his views of considerable
value on any military subject, said:
For some time the general stan
could not understand why Gen. Kuro-
patkin did not make an attack In force
on Marshal Oyama's centre after the
Japanese had thrown out their i'm
mense fianking armies to the east and
west. The supposition was that the
Japanese centre must have been
greatly weakened by the formation OF
these flanking armies, and II, as we
have been led to understand, Gen kuro-
patkin has an army Of 250,OOO men,
why he did not attempt to cut his
way through the Japanese centre could
not be understood at first.
Later much to our satisfaction,
from purely military viewpoint, kur-
opatkin did make such centre attack
in force, and was repulsed with great
loss. This conclusively proved to us
that the japanese army is very much
larger than reports have Indicated
and must consist Of more than 3OO,ooO
men, and that the Russian force can
not consist Of more than about $4,000
troops.
1.-The strategy of Oyama has been
perfect. His methods would have done
credit to the great Napoleon. From
the inception of his campaign to the
capture Of Mukden, no detail or MS
military strategy has miscarried. The
manner in which he has handled his
immense army; the splendid methods
he has used in keeping his men In ex-
cellent spirits and we'll supplied with
good wholesome food and warm cloth
ing. the fact that his men have never
lacked ammunition at the critical
times. and the care with which he has
worked out every detail Of his cam
paign, testify to the fact that he Is
one of the greatest of living soldiers.

A LONG SHOT HUNTER.-There are
few men in the country who enjoy go
ing out with a gun and dogs more
than Deputy Controller Stevenson OF
New York city, says the Denver Re-
publican. During the season he runs
down on Long Island for a days
shooting whenever he can. A few
months ago he was member of
week end party that were out scour-
ing the fields for quail. His shooting
partner was a young college man and
knew all about a football game and
nothing about a gun. For all that, he
persisted in banging away with both
barrels long after each covey flushed
was out of gunshot.
What kind of a shot do you
think I'll make?" he asked Mr.. Ste
venson.
81 should say you would make a
fine long shot"
"why?"
Because you have missed every
bird you have fired at, but your shots
are sure to hit something before they
strike the earth. 1t might be bird"

Kuropatkin, who has evidently been
laboring against big odds. but 1t does
seem to me and to the other members
Of the general staff that the Russians
have lacked initiative since the begin
ming of this war, and that many Of
their defeats have been due to this in
calculable temperamental disadvant-
age. On the defensive, the Russians
are equal to their antagonists, but they
never seem able to take the offensive
with success. Gen. Kuropatkin Is
becoming noted for the masterful
manner with which he conducts his re-
treats, and If he gets his army out of
its present predicament he will indeed
deserve great credit"

at an exhibition Of pictures.
well, Mrs. H" said he. "and what
do you think Of the pictures?"
Think Of 'em? Why consider that
on the whole they was good, indeed,
for what they was"
What do you mean? I believe the
artists are all fairly talented"
20, yes, I've no doubt; but then, you
see, they was all originals"
Surely that would be considered one
of their merits"
II don't think so. Why, when
man takes a clean canvas to work on
he can put on it anything that comes
into is 'ead; but when hartist as to
copy a pictur, why, that's quite diff
ferent thing! He's got to do exactly
what the hother man did, and can't
alter anythink to is hown fancy"

well with one exception. Drink was
one of his failings, but he was not
drunkard in the general acceptance of
the term. One night while he was in
Pueblo saloon row was started in
which several shots were fired. The
saloon keeper was fatally wounded
All present were arrested, including
Irving and Edward Cruggs. At the
trial Cruggs testified that Irving fired
the fatal shot and the young man was
sentenced to the penitentiary for life.
He was a model prisoner and plans
were on foot to secure his pardon.
Then came an. opportunity for him to
escape and he made one of the most
surprising getaways from the prison
that has ever occurred In Its history.
There were several visitors at the
prison one day and In some manner
Irving obtained suit of citizens
clothes. Walking down into the pris-
on library he mingled with the crowd
and walked out with the visitors.
Going to Salt Lake Irving secured
employment and was getting along
nicely. Then an ex-convict, released
from Canon City, appeared on the
scene He found Irving, who bought
him clothes, fed him and found him
employment. AS often happens, the
man whom he befriended was an in
crate. Knowing that he could secure
a reward he "peached" on Irving and
the young man returned to Canon
City. His friends reproached him for
ever leaving the penitentiary, telling
him that he had spoiled his chances
for the pardon that had seemed so
sure of attainment He promised to
make the best of himself possible

EDWARD IRVING GETS
CHRISTMAS PARDON

The Christmas festivities at the
penitentiary were among the most
notable in the history of mat institu-
ton. In addition to splendid dinner
served under the direction CT the pris.
on steward at 12 o'clock the Denver
Extravaganza company presented in
the chapel the play, "a Trip to Mars"
| for the delectation of the 742 convicts
Before the entertainment began War
den Cleghorn stated that in pursuance
of a time honored custom of the state
a pardon had been granted by Gov
ernor Mcdonald to commemorate the
Christmas season, and that Edward
Irving hat been selected for the ex-
ecutive favor. The announcement
came as a great surprise to Irving
| and was cheered BY the assembled
convicts, with whom the beneficiary
was very popular. Irving was con-
victed of murder at Pueblo and was
received at the penitentiary May II,
1899, Under life sentence. He was
No. 47i4 on the prison rolls and had
been employed as a carpenter since
his Incarceration in :he pcnitentiary.
Irving who is about 80 years Of age,
left the prison Tuesday morning a
free man. Irving was regarded as p
model convict by the prison officials.
Friends of Irving, including Rev.
Walter s. Rudolph, who was chaplain
at the penitentiary for two terms, be-
lieve that Irving was wrongfully con-
victed. They think that he was made
the fall guy" in criminal parlance,
and that some one else was guilty. He
was convicted on the testimony of
Edward Cruggs, who turned states
evidence and testified that Irving was
the man who fired the fatal shot.
Irving has been a model prisoner
for several years and he was recon-
mended for the Christmas pardon by
former Chaplain Rudolph and Warden
Cleghorn, as well as others closely
associated with him both before and
since his Incarceration. He is about
% years of age.
Irving has had an interesting. If
checkered career. When quite young
his mother died. He remained with
his father in Colorado Springs, but It
is said that his home life was not con-
ducive to keeping boy In the straight
and narrow path. He had no training
nor advantages. Going to Leadville
he got into trouble and was sent to
Canon City to serve term on the
charge OF larceny. although the jury
that convicted him recommended
clemency. After his release he mar
ried a girl OF excellent family and
