"A reprieve is now asked in order that
proceedings may be taken TO ask for a
new trial upon the ground Of alleged new
~ discovered evidence.
1T Is the privilege and the duty of the
executive TO grant a reprieve whenever
the interests of justice require il. But
where the petition is based upon the
claim that evidence has been newly dis
covered and the character OF the evil
dence is clearly disclosed the executive
should not interfere with the sentence
unless he is satisfied that the case is one
/ in which the application for a new trial
should be made and heard Whatever
his power. the governor has no right to
grant a reprieve unless he can assign
good cause. and If the administration OF
the law is to be respected. petitions made
at the eleventh hour must show merit
/ find none in the present case.
IF reason is TO be our guide. and all
the established facts are taken into con-
sideratiOn. there is no escape from the
/ conclusion that brutal murder was
committed and that the conviction was
! just
After examining the evidence now
presented, I find nothing in il which in
any way can affect this conclusion OF
which furnishes any justification for ex-
ecutive action"

TALKS ON MARRIAGE
Mixed Unions Discussed by
Rev. Father Russell.
REASONS FOR IMPEDIHENTs
Greatest Difficuity l. i'm TpbrinEinE
of Children, says Pastor OF 1t. Pat
rick's Church -ImpeTfeetiOns of
Marriage Between Catholics and
non-CatheIics-Trou var Apart.


Mixed marriages" was the subject OF
a sermon by Rev. Father William T..
Russell last night in S. Patrick's Cath
Ollie Church.
Father Russell discussed the evil aris-
ing from unions between persons Of df-
ferent faiths. and gave the causes there
for. The principal difficulty. he said.
arose in the method OF bringing up the
children.
The church is a faithful mother said
Father Russell. who watches over the
interests OF her children in all periods Of
their lives. especially when they propose
to enter into the sacred contract Of mat
rimon
ImPedimentS 10 Marriage.
In order TO prevent hasty marriages
and marriages which promise mostly I'M
happiness. she throws around marriage
safeguards which are called impediments.
Some of these impedimentS are merely
prohibitlye. but others ar nullifying.
THE Catholic church never grants di-
vorces Once the partners have been
truly married. no power on earth can an
nul the contract, for what God hath
bound together let no man put asunder.
Marriage is a sacred contract. inas-
much as il is contract. it consists OF an
agreement a between TWO rational beings a
man and a woman. 10 live together in
love until death and 70 bring up their
children in the fear and love of God
Does this love mean merely physical
passion between the man and the woman!
God forbid, Otherwise on entering the
marriage state man and woman would
leave reason behind
Mixed Marriages Imperfect.
Passion is blind. reckless. and un-
reasoning. The love between man and
woman should form union Of souls
But when they are OF different religions
such union is sure to be imperfect
The conception Of God and Of marriage
religious duties and the aids which re-
ligion affords are so different to tho
Catholic and the non-Catholic as tc
create a variance between parties whC
should be united in love before God
"If the passion OF the first love could
always be kept al white heat al else
might be overlooked. But this passion
