"How many men when facing death
on the gallows have said the same.
I wonder how many men have said
it truly. 1t is true, as Pope says,
that hope springs eternal in the hui
man breast, but often wonder if we
do not make grievous error in not
giving greater credence to the dying
statement of condemned man.

of the death of Robert Conway with
the same stoical resignation which

who Buck Everett might be, and at

in Millers hotel at the time of the
Conway murder. When l arrived at
the place he was almost gone, but
with the aid of stiff drink of whisky
he revived sufficiently to make the
following confession:

my mind. It's Conway. I've seen him
day and night. My God, judge, there
he is now pointing his bony finger

NURSES ARE PUZZLED OVER
ACTION OF THE NEW LAW
Nobody Seems to Know Just When the
Statute Will Go Into Effect.

The trained nurses Of this city are
in quandary over the law passed by
the last legislature, providing for a
nurses examining board and requiring
all such persons to take an examina-
ton and be licensed. The puzzling
question is, when does the low go into
effect?
All laws carving an emergency
clause and appropriation bills take eff
feet upon being signed by the COVER
nor, but the others go into effect 90
days after the legislature has adjourned
or on June s, this year. There is a
section in the nurses law that makes
it misdemeanOr for any one to rep
resent herself as a registered nurse 90
days after the law is passed, which
means. if construed literally, that the
law will go into effect 80 days after
March 8, as it was signed on that date
by the governor, or 10 days before the
Others laws are put into force.
