the WHITES ~PAROoNED.
SIayefs Of Russell Sheriff. are Given Their
Freedom BY Council of State.

News reached the city today
that the Council of State had re.
commended a pardon for Thomas
aud Chalmers White, and that
Governor Glenn had pardoned the
men. The particulars of the kill
! ing are fresh in tho minds o" the
| people, as are the circumstances
of the trial, and conviction and
sentence of the two brothers.
The question of a pardon has
been agitated tor some time and
recently a petition asking for this
pardon was presented to the Gov
ernor. As Governor Glenn had
been one of the attorneys for the
prosecution in this case he turned
the matter over to the Council of
State for consideration. There
was a hearing before the Council
last week at which Judge Mont
gomery and others appeared for
the Whites, while T. G. Linn,
Esq, of this city appeared for
those who opposed granting the
pardon.
The Council after hearing both
sides took the matter under adj
visement and their decision was
net made public until today,
though it was doubtless reached
several days since.
There is considerable talk in
regard to certain promises made
by men occupying high official po-
sitions in the State, with refer
ence to this pardon, and some.
thing further may be said on this
matter later. To-day we have nc
more than time to make the brief
announcement of the pardon,
knowing that all readers of the
WATCHMAN will be interested in
knowing what action the Council
Of State has taken.

The weather Sunday was about
as disagreeable as it could we'll
be, and there was doubtless much
disappointment felt by the femi-
nine portion of the population
because of handsome gowns and
beautiful millinery creati o II g
which could not be displayed to
the admirlng gaze of friends. But
we hope to see it all later.
IT is CHEAPER to buy a set
of beauty pins which only cost
you SOC or a $1.OO than it is to
pay Is or SOC for a set of buttons
for a dress or shirt waist, than
spend half a day trying to-work
nice button holes and finally
wind up by going to the optician
and paying $500 or $1,000 for a
pair of glasses-not considering
the inconvenience and trouble.
