KILLED THE WRONG MAN
BECAUSE He WAS
CROSS-EYED
Lsnecinl TO The sentinel. /

Frankfort, KY, April 23.--Just
because he got cross-eyed and killed
a man he was not looking at, George
Kellum, of Fayette county, must
spend the remainder of his life in the
penitentiary here, for Gov. Wilson
said that killing the wrong man be-
cause Kellum is cross-eyed is NOT
ground for granting a pardon.
Kellum's eyes only get crossed
when he becomes excited. He has
demonstrated this affliction to the
guards at the prison.
Greatly excited and with his eyes
crossed. he shot at negro on the
farm of Will Reed. at Lexington. and
killed Reed while he was looking
directly at the negro, who had at
tackled him with club.
Gov. Wilson says Kellum intended
to kill and that a man who will kill
his best friend while looking at an
other man is too dangerous to turn
out of prison.

These remarkable figures help us to
realize how great a boon this reform
has been; ii has meant crossing the

of small and innocent luxury. The

profit TO the extent of over $4,000
by this increase in the consumption
of tea. 1t is an admirable illustra-

indirect taxation presses upon the
