FOR HER LIFE.

trial, the sentence, Mrs. Rogers inear-
eeration in the state prison, the hear
ing for stay of execution, and then
orders that the execution of the SEN
tenee be put of until june 2 and that
Mrs. Rogers be removed from solitary
confinement in which she has been kept
for the past few weeks.
Armed with this document, Gov. Bells
secretary, Mr.. Walter, left Waterbury
at six o'clock last night to deliver the
reprieye in person. 1t was not thought
advisable to trust the reprieve to the
mails, as it might be hindered by storm
or accident. The officials considered that
in such contingency the stay of the exc
cution could not, according to the strict
letter Of the law, have been allowed,
although Sheriff Peck Of Windsor coun-
ty had been notified over the telephone
that the governor had granted the stay.
So Mr. Walter went to White River juno
tion last night, and this morning went
to Windsor and delivered the reprieye in
person. He had three copies, one for
the sheriff, one for Mrs. Rogers and one
for the prison. A fourth copy was sent
to the clerk Of the Bennington county
court, in which Mary Rogers was con-
victed of murder and sentenced to be
hanged. The reprieye was made out
in the administration building Of the
state insane asylum at Waterbury, the
governor and the attorney general being
in Waterbury to attend the hearing on
the investigation of the asylum.
Gov. Bell is a hard worked man these
days, and he is constantly on the 60,
scarcely finding time to rest at night.
Yet he stands the strain we'll Last

him decidedly busy during the last few
weeks. He and his secretary have
burned up about bushel Of letters
that have come to him, mostly from
cranks. One OF the latest from the
last-named class was a postal card,
written IN "the shadow of Bunker Hill
