Governor Brown Refuses to Pardon
Rich Criminal.

A dispatch from Atlanta says Gov.
Brown Wednesday afternoon an
nounced that he would not approve
the recommeldat.o Of the prison
commission that. the sentence or
William H. Mitchell, a prominent
citizen of Thomasville, Ga, convict
ed of attempted assault on Miss Lu-
cile Linton, highly respected young
woman and a relative of his wire,
be changed from year on the chain
gang to a similar period on the State
farm at Milledgeville.
The Governors decision ends one
of the most remarkable cases in
Georgia's legal history. Mitchells
friends have exhausted every effort
to save him from the disgrace OF
convict stripes and the Executive
ruling came as great surprise to
them.
In denying clemency to Mitchell,
Governor Brown said:
SHOULD the clemency asked for In
the present case be extended, there
is grave danger that 1t would bear
fruits Of sorrow in every section
of our State. 1t would set an ex-
ample pernicious beyond compare, an
example embodying a daily menace
to Georgia's womanhood. 1t would
say that we have no law for the
rich, another for the poor; one law
for the highly educated, another Tor
those too poor to enjoy the privi-
,, leges and immunities consequent up
on education; one law for the class
es. another for the masses"

Mr.. Ira Wallace brought to The
Herald Office one day last week a
stalk of corn almost long as Jack S
bean stalk. The stalk measured
IS feet and inches and the Joints
were as long and as large as a
trout pole of extraordinary size.
The stalk contained only oneear of
corn which was not we'll develop
ed, the strength of the land and
the fertilizer having been exhaus-
ted, no doubt, in producing the
stalk. The extraordinary length
of this stalk and the small amount
of corn it produced shows that

Origin of Appendicitis

Appendicitis is caused in most cases by
indigestion. The undigested food irri-
tates the intestines. The appendix be-
comes intlamed which soon becomes
chronic. Finally suppuration sets in, a
pus cavityiis formed and an acute attack
of appendicitis results. To prevent at
tacks of this fatal disease cure your indi-
gestion with Rydale's Stomach Tablets.
They will make the whole alimentary
canal healthy from the stomach to the
lower bowels. No danger of attacks of
appendicitis if the intestines are normal
and healthy. RYdale's Stomach Tablets
will keep them so.

the boy, but she didn't sing today

next me says she's been suffering from

to sing the solos for her."

winding up with the climax that she

two days. The judge seemed deeply
moved. He excused himself for not
attending to the case for the moment,
as the senate was nearly ready to
open. He looked at his watch with
an air of vexation, as if it were not
going, and said. "Can any one tell me

out a gold watch and told him the

A COMMEMORATE IDEA.
Maine State Pathological Society
Meets With the Grange.

Maine State Pathological Society
Meets With the Grange.
The more the grange co-operates
with county and state agricultural and
horticultural, dairy and live stock as
sociations the better for all concerned.
An illustration is at hand. Last June
the Maine State Pathological society
held field meeting with East Hebron
grange. The forenoon. was taken up
by demonstrations in spraying and the
thinning of fruit and in general or
chard research. In the afternoon
there were lecture on cultivation and
talks on the New England apple show
and apple enemies-insects and fungus.
This leads the Maine Farmer to say
that it is much gratified that the of
ficials of the society are adopting this
plan of combining forces with oranges
for field day demonstration work.
