AN EVANGELIST
If He Is Granted RardOn By
Gov. Wilson.
He Plans to Make His Home In
City of Louisville, with Rev.
George L. Herr.

III the petltlOn OF MS lrlenuS is dct'
ed favorably on by Gov. Wilson, Jane
Howard will leave a cell at the state
penitentiary for the pulpit, says the
Louisville Post. While it is probable
Pthat he will not be regularly ordain-
ed, he will enter the ministry as an
evangelist and will likely take vi
prison work, which his long incar.
ceration peculiarly adapts him to-
This fact has just leaked OUT, al
though it has been Towards pur.
pose to take up this work almost from
the daw he was arrested charged with
being implicated in the murder of Will
liam Goebel.
The fact that it has been Howard's
purpose to take up theological pur-
suits has been known to even few
of those who have associated with
him day after day, although his as
siduous study of the Bible, even in
the darkest days, has attracted atten-
ton of them. More than five years
ago, Howard confided his intention 10
a prison evangelist, whom he met in
the jefferson county Jail. Together
since then, the two have studied, the
evangelist ever ready to lend aid, and
according to his own declaration gain
ing greatly by the association.
Color is given to the statement that
Howard is to take up evangelist work
by reason of the fact that as soon
as he is released If such is the case
he will come to Louisville and make
his home with the Rev.George l.. Herr
on Fourth avenue. While DR.. Herr
who is widely known by the splendid
work he did in Jail here and his other
works of charity and literary efforts
will not admit that he has coached
Gated him with the idea of taking up
the work, he stated today that il
was true that Howard had been study
ing the Bible for many years and would
come TO this city and make his home
with him.
The announcement of the work
Howard will take up if given his
liberty is of intense human interest.
His enemies credit or rather dis
credit him with having been at one
time one of Kentucky's most celebra-
ted feudists and the leader of the How
ard clans against the Baker in the long
and bloody struggle that was waged "a
decade ago. This feud did not ter
inmate until Towards father and
brother had been shot to death and
three of the Bakers had gone to their
death. Howard denies that he killed
any of the Bakers except in man
TO man duel and those who knew him
as the intrepid but honest mountain
eer would defend the statement with
their lives.
In speaking of Howard today, the
Rev. Herr said: Howard is Chris
tian If one ever lived. in the six
years that | have known him he has
never been other than the ideal pris-
oner, the loving father. and man
who worshiped his God. He has stud
led the Bible as few have, often
times by a stream of light filtering
through the grated windows of a cell
but he has persevered and his reward
l believe is to come shortly. Ii is
rue that he will make his home with
me if he is pardoned."
The foregoing was put in type be-
fore the usual of pardon 10 Howard
and is given for what il is worth.

Scarcity of Cattle.

A we'll known cattle buy
er of the state says of the
situation: There is search
ty of caJtle in Kentucky as well
us in the great cattle producing states
of the west and this is primarily re-
sponsible for the high price of beef, B"
said j. w. Bates, of Richmond. Last
year when the financial panic came on
continued Mr.. Bates. MANY of the
large cattle raisers of the west hurried
their cattle 10 market and sold them
regardless of price in order 10 turn
them into money before the crisis
came. Consequently the west was
pretty well drained of its cattle stock.
Corn was fed abundanJly to gec these
cattle ready for marke, and now there
is a scarcity of corn in many of the
western states. Right now, am told

course, MOI thar high mere, still at
$3.50 and 81 a barrel, farmers regard
it as TOO valuable 10 feed to cattle,
and consequently very few are ready
for market but are waiting to be fat

fact cattle and beef would be higher
than they are | do not look for any
decrease in the price of beef until
after the grass fed cattle reach the
market, and the conditions in the
west together with the financial strin-
gency may have the effect of keeping
up the price. The News Leader.

clnner GROWING In Iexas.

Lock Don, the official Chinese In.
terpreter of the United States govern
ment here, may have the distinction
of introducing into Texas a new plant
which may open up very profitable
crop to the people Of Southwest
Texas. About a year ago, while in
San Francisco, Lock Don secured
some Jamaica ginger plants and
brought them to San Antonio and
planted them in his yard. The plants
grew and fiourished, and examination
by experts in plant knowledge brings
out the fact that this section is ad.
mirably adapted for raising the plant.
These facts were disclosed at a
meeting of the Business Mems Club
by Edward w. Knox, president of the
State Horticultural Society, and DR..
David Griffith, assistant agriculturist
of Washington, d. c.
The success in raising the ginger
here will be communicated to Wash
ington, in order that the Consul in
China may secure cuttings from the
roots to plant on the various govern
ment demonstration farms in South

REckLEssNEss IN HIGH PLACES.
Or. Adler Explains Why the Sword
of Justice Is So Blunt.

Dr.Felix Adler, speaking before the
Society for Ethical Culture, said that
the country's financial troubles were
due to the moral recklessness Of men
in high places. Most of the wicked
ness of the world, he declared, was
not deliberately planned. but the indi-
rect result of the policy of those who
did not care for consequences.
Moral recklessness and obliquity in
men in high places have shaken con-
fidence in American securities" he
said. "and diminished the value of our
assets. The actual wealth of the coun-
try is only part of the assets. The

Death in the Mines.

When a solitary miner is immured
in the dark caverns of the earth and
his fellow-delvers in the subterran-
can depth are laboring like beavers
to secure his release, the country
waits with almost GREATNESS inter-
est for the outcome. But when a
great calamity overwhelms hundreds.
the shock to the public is so great
that the facts do not seem to be real;
the mind is slow to grasp the catas-
trophe in its full extent. 1t is thus

In the thoughtless, wandering winds,
And they wither, ah. they wither,
At the first frost winter sends,
While the hardy hillside flowers,
