sprang repeatedly. at the horses threats.
Cariey walked out on the pole and began
kicking at the animal every time it jumped.

MRS. EDWARDS CONFESSION.
Exonerated the Negro Greason From
Completely in Murder.
fe6-d&ds

Exonerated the Negro Greason From
Completely in Murder.
A dispatch from Reading, Pa. last night
says: Mrs Kate Edwards, who is under
sentence to be hanged with Samuel Grea-
son on Thursday next for the murder of her
husband, made a statement to her counsel
today, in which, it is said, she eXonerates
Greason from completely in the murder.
The statement will not be given to the pub
lie until 1t is presented to the board of
pardons but the inference is left that she
has admitted that she alone committed the
crime.
Mrs. Edwards and Greason, who is col
ored man, were convicted of the murder of
Edwards, and since the death sentence has
been pronounced extraordinary efforts have
been made to save them from the gallows.
The board of pardons has heretofore re-
fused to interfere and the state supreme
court has affirmed the lower courts ver-
dict
Mrs Edwards confession, it is thought,
will place the case in an entirely new as
pect before the board of pardons. The
board will meet at Harrisburg February
Is, the day before the date fixed for the
double execution. If the womanS state
ment is accepted by the board. it may save
the mans life. If the woman is spared it
will therefore be entirely on sentimental
grounds, as strong pressure is being
brought before the board not to permit the
woman to be hanged.
In the trial much testimony was pre-
sented to show that Edwards was dis
solute character, that he drank heavily and
that he treated his wife in brutal man
ner. 1t was shown that Edwards was
killed while he lay drunk at his home. 1t
is expected that the execution will at least
be postponed in view of the statement of
Mrs. Edwards.
1t Is said Mrs Edwards conscience has
been troubling her since she has been re-
ceiving the spiritual ministrations of her
former pastor, Rev. Stephen Schweitzer,
that today she could restrain herself no
longer, and sent for her lawyers and made

chise and your nonproductiye acres will

That was the strongest temptation
| that faced me during my entire may
| oral term The ordinance was popu-
lar The street car line would supply
a want The changed route was better
than the original. And my property,
purchased years before ever dreamed
of, being mayor, would become prof
liable investment
But the hand of the briber lay on
that map; the finger Of the briber
pointed to a promised reward. The
changed route was as much of bride
as the money which would be paid me
for my influence to secure the company
its franchise.
The president called me fool for
refusing to take advantage of an OPP
portunity by which | not only could
perform an act of great service and
value to large district, but do a good
| thing for myself as well. Apparently
he did not see the difference between
bribe in effect and a bride in fact.
I have cited these attempts to IN
duce me to commit a crime because
| many citizens are prone to impute base
motives to every official act of their
| mayor. It unfortunately is too true
that many good people are convinced
that the instant a man takes the oath
of office as chief executive of city he
begins to feather his nest There is
scant encouragement for a public Off
eial to be honest when he is tried and
found guilty by a cynical public before
he has even learned the way to his
office door. The fact is. many men,
who in ordinary business affairs are
scruDulously honest, do not hesitate to
| commit the crime of bribery when their
selfish interests are involved They at
tempt to bride mayors and other city
officials by direct and indirect methods.
They use the church, the club, family
connections and friendship to consum-
mate their criminal designs-and SEEM
ing1y see no crime in so doing
