POWERS
PARDONED
END OF GREAT MURDER
TRIAL IN KENTUCKY.
JAMES HOWARD ALSO GETS FREE
-FUGlTlVE TAYLOR SAYS
GOVERNOR DID RIGHT.

By announcing the pardon Saturday
of Caleb Powers and james Howard,
Governor Wilson of Kentucky closed
the last chapter in one of the most
noted criminal cases in the history of
Kentucky, in which people all over
the United States have shown their
interest by petitions for pardon.
In the closing days of January, eight
years ago, while the contest of William
Geebel for the gubernatorial seat, &C.
cupied by Governor Taylor, was being
held, Goebel was shot, dying later from
his wound. The shot was believed to
have come from half open window
of the secretary of states Office and
as Caleb Powers was then filling that
office, suspicion was at once directed
toward him, and his arrest followed.
Four times has Powers been put on
trial for his life on the charge of COM
plicity in the murder; the first three
trials resulting in conviction and
sentence, death being the penalty in
two trials.
Governor Wilson gave out several
reasons for parGoning Caleb Powers
and James Howard
The governors reasons for the par.
don of James Howard are set forth
to be that after careful examination
all of the evidence and proceedings OF
the trial satisfied him that Howard
had nothing to do with the murder oil
William Goebel. but that Henry Yout
sey formed the plan which was carried
out in the murder of Goebel.
"Righteous Act" Says Taylor.
Indianapolis, Ind.-William S. Tay
lor, former governor of Kentucky anf
now a fugitive in this city, where HI
has lived since the assassination o
Governor Goebel, made this statemen
when he learned of the pardons:
1.-THE pardon of Caleb Powers ant
James Howard is a most righteous
act. Never before in the history o
this country have two men suffered
more unjustly."
Powers Issues Statement.
Georgetown, Ky.-Caleb Powers
who was pardoned by Governor VIII
son, gave out statement in which h
says:
"The decision of Governor Willso
to the. effect that I am entitled to m
liberty after his long and painstakin
examination of the records in all trial
is, l think, as much vindication c
my good name as though my libert
had come through the decision Of tn
average jury, and especially in vie
of the fact that 10 of the jury in tn
last trial voted for my acquittal.
81 am going home to my poor oil
mother and will remain there fe
weeks in the hope Of regaining m
health If my health is sufficient
recovered by September /, shall
enter the practice of law in my hon
town, Barbourville, KY, unless som
thing much better presents itself D
tween now and then"

SOLDIERS OF FORTUNE.

To-day we have journeyed far.
My heart and l;
Came home 1t dusk meath a star
Hung Keen and high.
The morn was a blade Of steel
Scabbard of white
Bonnie and brave to feel
In FURNISHED light.
As we footed the open road
We sang the sun:
Love was the debt we owed
The day begun.
The hills were abrupt and blue
Castles of kings,
To be won and wandered through
For precious things.
Noon and the long afternoon
Gladness and hope
And a shadow that walked too soon
The westward slope.
So is the wild world won
BY them who roam;
But best of the day that is done
The door of home.

Instinct and Reason.

Instinct is the generic term for all
those faculties of mind which lead to
the performance Of actions that are
adaptive in character, but pursued
without necessary knowledge of the re-
lation between the means employed and
the ends attained. Reason refers to
those actions that are adaptive in char
acter and that are pursued with knowl-
edge of the relation between the means
employed and the ends aimed at Such
is the technical statement of the diff
ference between instinct and reason,
but the real, basic difference between
the two faculties is unknown and prob
