HUNDRED CONVICTS APPLY
WANT COMMISSION TO PAROLE
THEM UNDER NEW LAW.
Many Convicted of Felony Crimes
Have Already Been Set Free and
Many More VIII BE.

Although the prison commission
mas reached no conclusion as to when
Ut will put into operation the new
convict parole law, something like
lou applications from convicts now
serving terms in the penitentiary
have been filed with it.
Conyiets evidently read the daily
papers, for no sooner had it been an
nounced that the commission had
adopted tentative rules and regula-
tlons to govern applications for pa
role than applications for benefits un-
der it began to pour in from those
who considered that they came with
in the definition laid down.
Already since the new law was
passed the prison commission and
governor have pardoned more than
fifty convicts who had served consid-
cradle time on their sentences. Some
OF them were life term men who had
served from ten to thirty years.
1t is probable that the parole svs
tenn viii let out to freedom twice
as many more as soon as it goes into
operation. This will be Just as soon
as the rules and regulations are final
~ agreed upon and approved by the
governor. 1t is anticipated that it
will be soon after Jan. /.
This viii cut down at the start
the number of convicts of which the
state will have to dispose by 100 or
more, and as many more will proba-
bly, go out during the year 1909. So
it is probable that by the end of
1909, unless the penitentiary force is
materially increased in the mean
time, there VIII be only about 1000
felony convicts for distribution
among the counties The state now
has approximately $500.

POLICE COURT GLIMPSES.

Mary Ann, sometimes known as Bessie
Miller. was the principal guest at an in
formal reception held by Judge Diehl yes
terday morning, and il WAS only after con-
siderable reluctance that she was allowed
to say goodbye and leave the social hall
TO fill other pressing engagements Mary
Ann. or Bessie. was something of an in
voluntary guest however, and her pres
entation to Judge Diehl was largely due
TO the earnest solicitation of Officer Kast
Mr.. Kast met Mary Ann on the corner
of Main and Second South Streets Friday
evening, and he was so struck with her
appearance that he felt in duty bound to
present her to his superior officer. Then.
too, yesterday Judge Diehl had a dim
recollection of having met Mary Ann be
fore in a similar society function, and
wished to urge that she remain longer
But Mary Ann, with that shyness due TO
embarrassment. pleaded other engage
mentS. and owing to the fact that she was
practically a stranger to those pres
ent Host Diehl, with innate courtesy, al
though regreuully, permitted her to take
her way.
James Davis, whose somewhat doubtful
craving for learning led him to steal sew
eral volumes of an encyclopaedia belong
ing to Mrs. Stickney Of Earle's court.
was up before Judge Diehl yesterday on a
petit larceny charge. Mr.. Davis will
spend the next five months in seclusive
meditation in the county jail, but without
the encyclopaedia, however. 1t will be
purely meditation for him, without ref
erence or research.
Leon Souelard, the name given at the
time of his arrest. or Leo Loveland, as
the complaint reads, was arraigned yes
terday before Judge Diehl on the charge
of burglary in the second degree and
entered plea of not guilty. He will
have his trial next Thursday. SOuelard
was arrested under suspicion of being the
man who robbed three rooms in the Or
oheum hotel and another room in the ST
Nicholas hotel
For the next ten days Mary Williams
aged IS years will be cared for in the
city Jail. The woman was taken into Gus
tody Friday night, While under the in
fiuence of liquor, and from the facts de
veIoped at her hearing yesterday it was
considered best to have the city look after
! her for short time at least.

Parting Address.

The parting address was given by
Malcolm ID. Smith and he said in part:
TO the shortest path and the longest
must be an end to our college life. We
come to that stage of our life at Colby
with a mingled feeling of joy and sad
ness, JOY because we have reached that
goal toward which we have loLg been
striving; sadness because of the sever
ing of SO many long and intimate
friendships which we have learned to
cherish. We have arrived at that place
in our lives to which, doubtless, many
of us have looked forward to with a
feeling of pleasure and anticipation.
The fact that people seldom appreciate
good thing until it is past is most
fully appreciated by the college stu
dent He finds fault with his lot while
in the preparatory school and thinks
he is having a terribly hard time, but
when he gets into college he sees what
a good time and what great opportuni-
ties he had"
Mr.. Smith paid a tribute to President
White and what he had done for the
college. He expressed the deep sense
of obligation of the Glass of 1908 to-
ward the members of the faculty, and
gave a parting word to the underclass-
men. Turning to the members of his
own class, he spoke in a fitting way of
the memories of college days. He urged
them never to forget their college but
always keep it in mind and do q kind
act for Old Colby when opportunity
came
Mr.. Smith also spoke of the uncer-
tainty of the future and mentioned
the death of two members of the pres
ent Senior class, Anne Trafton Roberts
and Richard A. Lyons.
The class then formed and, accompanied
by the bard. proceeded, as is customary,
to cheer all the halls and buildings. After
this was done the members disbanded
for the day.

Phi Beta kappa Address.

The annual Phi Beta Kappa Grafton
was delivered Tuesday evening by
George Otis Smith, class of 1896, now
the director of the United States
Geological Survey. His subject was
"'rhe Nations Dependence Upon Ma
ture." and he spoke as follows:
Alexander Caesar and Napoleon
sought to create empires by exacting
tribute from their neighbors. Wash
ington, Jefferson, and Roosevelt have
established a nation by the develop
mcnt of it's own resources.
President Roosevelt's state papers
have again and again contained stir
ring appeals to the lawmakers to
make adequate provision for the con-
servation of the nations natural re-
sources. No other Chief Executive
since Washington has given equal
prominence to this line OF practical
craftsmanship. / believe that future
historians will record no greater
achievement of Theodore Roosevelt
than this-that in the day Of spectac-
ular industrial development. time
when it is all too easy to be optimistic
and short sighted, he saw clearly that
Americas natural wealth is not mex
haustible: and so invited the repre-
sentatives of the sovereign states to
meet in conference the Chief EXecu-
tive of the sovereign nation with the
declared purpose of taking steps to
preserve for future needs the nations
heritage.
MY topic is one which should appeal
to the patriotic scholarship of Colby,
Just as the nations call of nearly
fifty years ago stirred to action the
most talented students of this college.
Our Presidents well considered appeal
in this time of peace should arouse the
new type OF patriotism no less than
did Lincolp's call to arms inspire
