PARDON
WILL BE
OPPOSED

The chances that Martin L. Mowry, who
murdered the Reynolds family at Oak
land. in Burrillville, Sept Is, 1897. will OBJ
tain the pardon he hopes Governor Utter
will grant him. appear TO grow less the
more that tragedy Is discussed
The plee that the old man is Ill and
that he ought TO be set free to die at
home is already discontinued
Mowry is not and has not been III since
he began his sentence.
The old man asserted one day this week
that John q. Peckham OF 574 Union ave.
nue., who was foreman OF the jury which
convicted him. had been out 10 prison and
had said that he would sign petition Tor
pardon.
Mr.. Peckham denies ever making such
promise. Once he saw Mowry and talk
ed with him; but said nothing which could
be construed into the idea that ne would
favor Mowry's pardon.
Nothing had arisen since the trial. so
Mr.. Peekham said. TO cause him TO change
MS views regarding the guilt OF Mowry
The evidence against the accused was 50
strong In certain particulars that he still
believed the man guilty
Another Juror had talked with Peckham
who said he was OF the same opinion.
In Burrillville there is not only oppo-
fition expressed to the idea OF signing the
pardon petition: but some OF the people
assert that they will oppose the granting
or executive clemency.

About every one in Portland in

knew Long John Holmes. some
times called Swearing John Holiness .
for he was also one of the largest
hearted Of men, and was not awed by
wealth or position
This story about him was related
by the Hon. William Pitt Fessenden.
He said during the first year of the
civil war Holmes was in Washington
looking for something to do, while
he was in the United States Senate.
He was in Secretary Stanton's office
one day, and Stanton said: 81 am
looking for good man to buy horses
In New England for the army; can
you recommend any one for the posi-

one of his townsmen was in Wash

it best to be in no hurry, and went

CHOOSING THE IDEAL WIFE

The following original description
Of the perfect wife is taken from a
book by the late Max O'Rell, the
French humorist, just published in
Paris:
Marry a woman he writes, Small
er than yourself. Do not marry q
woman whose laugh is forced and does
not spring from the heart, but marry
woman who enjoys joke and looks
at the bright side Of everything.
Marry girl who is bit OF a phil.
osopher. If you take a girl to the
theater, and on hearing there are no
seats in the stalls Or circle, she gayly
exclaims: Never mind, let us go into
the gallery!' marry her 1t will be
easy to live happily with a girl willing
to sit even on the back benches with
her husband.
do not marry q woman who has
the fast ways of what is called smart
