DESERT THEIR HORSES.
Hole in the Wall Robbers Take a
Train and "Sdp the Country"


Train and "Skp the Country"
The recent Hole in the Wall ex-
citement is being reviewed and re-
hashed in Shelley and speculation is
rife as to just what became of the
stock rustlers in the late unpleasant
ness at Jackson's Hole, says the
Shelley correspondent of the Idaho
Falls Register.
Some say that four of the despera-
does escaped via the eastern foothills
and direct to Shelley, where they took
the midnight train for parts un-
known. At any rate, on last Saturday
afternoon, while the rain was pouring
down in torrents, four desperate look
ing men with their hats pulled down
and riding sorry looking and jaded
cayuses, passed through the streets of
Shelley.
On Sunday morning Charles An
derson, who lives on Ebbe Peterson's
ranch, found four horses with their
saddles on, in his corral. Putting this
and that together, and with scien-
tific figuring that would put Sherlock
Holmes out in a jlffy, local lights de-
tectively inclined, have decided that
the owners of those saddle horses are
| notorious members of the Hole in
the Wall gang, and furthermore they
know the color of their eyes; that
they came to Shelley direct, abandon
ed their faithful animals to the ten
der mercies of an unterrified COM
munity and skipped on the midnight
train going south. Be that as II
may, Mr.. Anderson says the horses
are no property Of his and he has
notified Constable Barron to come
and take them in charge.

SENTENCE CONVICT
Governor of Nebraska Exercises
Clemency in Case Where Jurors
Say They Were Coerced.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 7.-Executive
clemency was exercised today in behalf
Of Charles Russell, a convict at the
Nebraska state penitentiary, serving a
life sentence for murder.
Governor Mickey issued pardon
upon representation that convinced
him Russell had been unjustly con-
victed and imprisoned for the past year.
The crime with which he was charged
was the killing Of Alois Standemeier, a
cattleman In Sioux county, Nebraska,
in 1900.
Affdavits were presented from ten
Of the jurors who sat in the trial in
which they openly declare their belief
that he was not guilty Of the crime
The evidence at the trial was purely
circumstantial and subsequent events
proved this, and the jurors became in
spired with the conviction that they
had condemned an innocent man.
They even made affidavit that they
had been coerced by the prosecution
and that their verdict Of second degree
murder was compromise. Many OF
them favored acquittal, but the trial
judge, according to their representa-
ton to the governor, refused to accept
disagreement and kept them confined
in the juryroom for nearly one hundred
hours. 800
Governor Mickey's pardon was un
condition. and restores to Russell al
the rights Of citizenship.

instance OF Senator Carmack. says the

Carmack. and calls him Ned"
While visiting Columbia. the capital
of the county, during a recess of con-
gress. Carmack, hen a representative,
strolled into the county courtroom,
where the quarterly court was in ses-
sion. He took a seat in a corner. and
listened to the country orators. A bill
was presented for window shades for
the chancery courtroom. Instantly an
excitable justice was on his feet.
Darn the chancery cote. Let 'em pay
for their own window shades. That
cote amt nothing but an expense, no

During his torrent Of invective against
the offending body, Carmack scrubbed
a few lines in a notebook and gravely
handed the sheet of paper to n of the
solons sitting near him. When the
orator finished, Carmack's neighbol
arose and presented the following reso'

HOW Bass Rear Their Young.

The male bass reminds the female
from time to time that the nest being
ready. it is her duty to deposit the eggs,
which. at the proper time. she does. The
male pays unremitting attention to the
eggs. and also to the young when
Matched. and until the yoke sack, which
is attached to the underside of the little
fishes, is entirely absorbed by them
this is for their sustenance until they
are strong enough to swim and procure
their food. At this stage of their exist
