while under the influence of liquor.
Judge Pollard is a kind hearted
man and a talabstainer. When
be aseended the Bench the atmos-
phere of st. Louis was rent with
the cry of political reform and he
was a reforruer himself.
The drunkards gave him the
most trouble and he was anxious
To find some method of dealing
with them that would be best for
themselves and society. They
caused him many a sleepless night.
Should be, like his predecessors, go
on sending them to the wOrkhouse
to break rock while their families
faced starvation, or should lie at
tempt to reform the individual
drunkard and place him beyond
the reach of intemperance7 Many
drunkards were such hopeless sots
that he knew he could not help
them, but there was a class of Of
Tenders he thought he could re-
form. 1t was at least worth while
to try.
Judge Pollard's idea was to give
inebriates a chance TO sign a tenn
perance pledge, and having once
signed it, force them to keep it
nuder penalty of being sent to the
workhouse for the crime which
brought them into the police
courts for a precedent, but could
find none. But before him was
such an opportunity to do good
that he determined to try the tnno-
vation. During the last two years
hundreds of men have signed the
temperance pledge in Judge Pol.
lard's court, which is one of the
largest police courts in the world
and less than two per cent have
violated it.
Soon after Joseph w. Folk be
came Governor of Missouri he be
gan issuing pardons to men wht
owed their trouble to drink, max
ing it a condition that if they eve
got intoxicated again they mus
return to prison and serve out tn
unexpired portions of their sen
tences.

Anderson Gets Drunk and Now
Must Go to the Pen.

G. NJ. Anderson, the young fel.
low who. was convicted recently in
the Audrain County Circuit Court
of stealing money from the Wa
bash railroad at Benton City, was
given a chance to begin life anew,
but played smart and went to the
dogs again.
He was sentenced to two years
in the penitentiary, but as he was
a young man Judge Barnett
thought to give him a chance to
retrieve himself aud paroled him,
and, as he gave whisky as the
cause Of his downfall, adjured him,
above all things, to abstain from
drink. But Anderson went down
to Louisiana and got on a big
drunk. Tie Audrain county off.
cials heard of his antics and he
was sent for and has been taken tC
