Prisoner Writes to Governor Miolsy
Asking 10 be Released - Says Die
Voted for the Governors Now f. e
FIFTY and Wants New Start.

Lincoln Ncb., Oct 3l.-"G Govern ~,

good turn deserves another So
leave the matter with YOU hoping for
the best"
So wrote James r. Wright, a "a
rolled convict now living In sheridan
county. to Governor Mickey In supuurt
Of his request for a communication of
sentence. This plea did not gain him
fun freedom, but other circumstances
In the case which Governor Mickey
considered favorable to Wright in.
duccd him to grant the desired boon.
The principal reason that Wright
gave for wishing communication was
that he desired to take mp 400 acres of
land on White Clay creek under the
terms Of the Kinkald act. He had an
opportunity to buy n REIMBURSEMENT
from the present occupant, enabling
him to file ON the land himself, but SO
long as he remained a convict he did
not have the right to do so. There
fore he appealed to Governor Mickey.
| The latter having ordered n pardon,
| Wright may now become home
stcadcr with full rights.
In 1892 Wright was sentenced from
| RushVlllc to fifteen years i'm the pCni-
Tertiary, for the crime of incest on his
daughter. He has served seven years
and four months, and earned two
years and four months, counting good
time and about two years which he has
been out on parole. This left three
years longer to serve, doducting good
time, or five years and six months
without It, Wright has been working
for Judge w. H. Westover on the lat
ter's ranch near Rushville
Judge Westover and Adjutant Cen
oral Sulver both recommended the
Communication. The former in letter
to Governor Mickey stated that Wright
had farm and 100 head of stock be-
fore going to prison, but that his wife
soon aftcrward got a divorce and all
the property was transferred to her.
Wright addressed Voluminous let
ter in his own behalf to Governor
Mickey stating that he could get pc
tition signed by everyone in and
around Rushvillc if it were necessary
and asking for the chance to get an
other start in life before it Is too late.
He is now past fifty years of age.

THE LODGES MAY BUILD
FRATERNITY BUILDING is ONE
SUGGESTION MADE.
QUARTERS SAID TO BE SCARCE
Some of the Members of Fraterna Or
ders in the City are Discussing the
ACCESSIBILITY of Erecting Building,
Due to Odd Fellows Move.

A fraternity building to accommo-
date at least fourteen fraternal lodges
in Norfolk may be built as the result
of the decision of the Odd Fellows to
close their rooms on the second floor
of the Odd Fellows building to all or
ders excepting their own. The time
limit when the fourteen lodges which
now rent lodge quarters from the Odd
Fellows, expires, is the first of next
April and many of the members of va
rious orders have been considering
during the past few days the advisa-
bility of clubbing together and build
ing a fraternity building for this pur-
pose.
Such a building exists at Lincoln,
having been built about four years ago.
While nothing definite has been pos
sible in connection with such a pro-
ject, it is said that many of those who
belong to orders now renting, are in
terested in the plan and are interest
ing others in it.
The lack of other quarters in the
city is one of the perplexing problems
which have led to this suggestion on
the part of some of the lodgemen.

CONFUSION IF NECESSARY
Landlords in Ireland Will Not Be Al
lowed to Hinder Operations
of Land Act.

London, Oct. 29.-John f.. Redmond.
the Irish leader moved the adjourn
ment OF the house Of commons TODAY
III order to call attention to the lack
OF progress in the matter of reinstat-
ing evicted tenants in Ireland owing
as the speaker alleged, to the landlords
hlndering the operations of the land
act Dy refusing TO sell untenanted
lands. The land commissioners were
consequently unable to provide farms
for ev1cted tenants. Mr. Redmond said
1t was obvious that the government
must resort to some system of COM
puislon. The patience of the Irish peo-
pie was becoming exhausted and al
though the Irish party desired to give
fair play pending a declaration of the
governments intention regarding Irish
self-government, it thought that Chief
Secretary for Ireland Bryce, ought to
grapple with the matter vigorously
Replying to Mr.. Redmond Mr.
Bryce, after some. debate, said the
government had done it's best to cope
with the grave obstacles before it, and
it had won a certain measure of sue
cess. If the remedy is compulsion, the
chief secretary said, the government
might have to come to that
Walter Hume-Long, conservative,
then declared that Mr.. Bryce's state
ment involved a complete triumph for
the Nationalist, and the subject was
dropped.

DEATH OF BISHOP BRANCH
End Came Suddenly at Price While
the Well-known Churchman
Was at Work.
Especial to The Herald.)

Price, Utah, Oct. 29.-Eugene T. Branch.
| bishop of Wellington ward, dropped dead
at Price this morning, supposedly from
heart trouble. The end came while he
was at work in the interior of q new
building His death occurred at about
$3.50, and came as a shock to the entire
community where he was known almost
as well as at his home town.
He had been complaining for several
days, but nothing of a serious nature
was for d moment entertained by the man
himself nor his son or family. His son.
Levi. was at his side mixing mortar with
the father, and caught him as he sank TO
the floor. An inquest over the remains
was considered unnecessary.
The deceased was in his forty-Second
year of his age, having been born at
Salt Lake City, Aug. 10, 1864. AT an early
age he went with his parents TO St.
George, where he was married and spent
his early manhood. Some fourteen years
ago he came to this county, being res
ident Of Wellington most OF the time
since. He filled during his time a mission
70 the northwestern states, and about
four years ago was chosen bishop or the
ward in which he resided. Aside from
his contractors work he was in the gen
eral mercantile business with his sons
at wellington
The deceased is survived by a widow
relatives at Salt Lake City, Coalville and
ST George. Mrs. Olive Milburn of Price
is half sister His parents were William
H. Branch and Emily Atwood Branch of
Salt Lake City. The funeral is to be
held at Wellington next Thursday after

FOUL CALIFORNIA MURDER
Sixteen-year-old Girl Shot Down in
Corn Field in Presence OF
Mother and Sister.

Santa Maria, Cal, Oct. 29.-The little
village of NipOmO, about FIVE miles
from Santa Maria, was startled by an
atrocious murder this afternoon. Mrs.
Lawrence Hourhan, with her two young
daughters, was out in the cornfield back
of their ranch house huSking corn about
4:3O o'clock. They were accosted by a
man whom they think to have been Nat
Hartnell a butcher who formerly
worked for Mr.. Hourhan. They paid no
attention TO him, not realizing that he
was calling to them. A man in an au-
tomObile in the road nearby heard a
shot fired and, looking up, he saw
man running and one of the girls lying
on the ground. He fired at the fleeing
man, but did not succeed in hitting him.
He ran to the three women in the field
and found the eldest daughter, aged L.
on the ground, dying with a bullet hole
through her head. The mother and sis
ter were in such a dazed condition that
they could give no accurate account of
the tragdy.
a large posse of men is out with the
stricken father at its head searching
for the murderer.
Warrants are out for Nat Hartnell
the supposed murderer.
