Jurors Were Confused.

Richard Davis. the other convict sent up from Montgomery. was recently convicted of using abusive language in the presence of females. He was tried in the Montgomery City Court. He was subjected to a fine which, with costs added, amounted to $53. Davis had the distinction of having been tried by a jury of two. These jurors now admit that they were confused by the testimony.
 The statement of the Governor about Davis is as follows:
 Richard Davis-This applicant was convicted for using abusive language, and fined $ and costs. amounting in all to $53. By agreement, he was tried by jury of two. These jurors repre- sented to the judge that they were mis- taken in the meaning of the testimony and they requested the judge to set aside the verdict.

Solemn Reception of Young Women

 The closing exercises of the Iridium at St. Peter's Church last night were the most impressive witnessed there for a long time.
 A solemn reception of many young women into the sodality of the chill dren of Mary, was preceded by a state ly ceremonial in which the entire sodality participated. A solemn pro- cession headed by the fourteen altar boys in red soutanes and surplices bearing the crucifix and lighted candles wended its slow way from the sodality hall through the centre aisle of the church to the altar.

Governor Frees Clanton
 Ogburn.
Montgomery Negro Outrsn Fellow Prisoner wAe Attempted to Es- cape From wst.npk. walls.
 Four Others Get CIemency.

The celerity of Clanton Ogburn. a one-armed negro convict. was yester- day rewarded by his being paroled by Acting Governor Cunningham.
 Ogburn was sent up from Montgom- cry County on a charge of grand lar fceny. He merited his parole by out sprinting Eugene Williams. a negro convict who had attempted to escape, and by bringing him back to the We tumpka walls before the dog pack had started on the scent.
 The case of ogburn peculiarly ap- pealed to Governor Cunningham and parole was granted.
 The fountain of clemency was opened up yesterday to four convicts, the Gov ernor issuing paroles to three and re- hitting the fine of a fourth. In all the cases mercy was recommended by the State Board of Pardons.
 Clanton Ogburn and Richard Davis of Montgomery County, Robert Drew of Dale County and Matthew Howard of Autauga County were the fortunate convicts.
 The executives action in the case of Ogburn was recommended by both the Board of Pardons and President J. M Carmiachael of the State Board of Con- vict Inspectors. Ogburn had a clean record as a prisoner since he began serving in August. 1900.
 The endorsement of the Governor in the case was as follows:
 'Clanton Ogburn-This applicant was convicted of grand larceny in August, 1900 and sentenced to the penitentiary for seven years. His short term ex- pires September. 1905. It appears that this convict is a one-armed man and that on one occasion he pursued and caught an escaped convict and the President of the Board of Inspectors asked that he be paroled. The par doning board recommends parole. Therefore, let parole issue. .s

rrince Henry ceAt-ibutes to New
York gIAb's Menu.

NEW YORK, March 2.-Not only
will the Canadian club eRt rhnoceros
Mt Its annual dinner nj the'Hotel AstOr
tonight, but 1t has been announced that
the rhinocerOs has been presented to
the club by his royal highness p4'lnce
Henry of Prussia.
When Prince Henry made his visit to
this country he was entertained by
some OF the officers of the Canadian
club and expressed desire to return
their courtesy. He said that il they
ever wanted a scarce or In any way
unique animal to serve at a dinner they
had only to notify him and he would
send them one. The sportsmen took
the matter as a joke until this years
dinner was being prepared for. Then,
still considering the promise joke,
Prince Henry was asked to contribute
something to their feast. A week later
the club was informed that q rhinoce-
ros was being shipped to them, The
rhinoceros, which had belonged to the
Berlin Geological garden, arrived here
about week ago.
How the animal which weighs be-
tween two and three thousand pounds,
will be served is a puzzle. Mr.. Harry
V. Radford, secretary of the camp, said
that the proprietor OF the hotel did not
himself know how he would serve It,
1t may be wheeled in on a wagon or a
large wooden platter may be called
into use.
Mr.. Radford emphatically denied that
he said that the flesh of the rhinoceros
was not good to eat at is very ten
der" he said. land in every way most
desirable as food"
ExPresident Cleveland, who sup
piled the black bear which occupied
the center Of the table at last years
dinner, is expected to do his share in
dispatching the rhino. More than 800
sportsmen have been invited.
