CLENENCY BY TAT 7
President Makes Many
Happy for Christmas
Holidays.

Christmas ClenenCy was exercised to-
DAY by President Taft in q number Of
cases. As result the prison sentence
Of Q. NJ. Burns, former cashier Of the
First National Bank. of Montpelier,
Ohio. will come to an end on January ;.
This Is seven months earlier than
would have been the case if the COM
mutation had not been granted. Burns
was convicted OF making false entries
on the books OF the bank and he was
sentenced June IS. 1908, for seven years
and to pay the costs Of prosecution.
The President also acted favOrably in
the case Of Frank Dostal, OF Cedar
Rapids. Iowa, who was convicted OF
selling liquor to an Indian. He was
sentenced TO pay a fine Of 800 and to
serve ninety days in jail. Because one
OF his children IS about to undergo a
surgical operation, his wife
Is sick. and his hotel could not be run
by her, the imprisonment part Of the
sentence was suspended until New Year
in order to enable him TO make applica-
ton for pardon.
After considering the case fully the
President finds that there Is no real
ground FOR n pardon, but he committed
the prison sentence to thirty days, and
the sentence should be deferred for six
months so as 10 enable DoBtal to ar
range his affairs and be with his child
during the surgical operation. He has
already paid his fine

While returning from St. Joseph's College. On the Mt. Meigs Road. yes- terday afternoon. the surrey contain ing four Sisters from St. Margarers Hospital. was wrecked and Sister Mar Earsnt was slightly injured. sustain- ing. scratches and bruises about her face.
 Just how the accident occurred can- not be learned. Inquiry at the hospf- ta, resulted in the information that the accident was not of a serious na- ture. and not worth publishing. Fa- ther Rice of St. Joseph's, who hurried to the scene immediately after the mat ter was reported to him, stated that there was nothing to 1t. without giv- ing any information as the nature of it.
 It was learned. however. that yes- terday afternoon, shortly before s o'clock, while the four sisters were returning from St. Joseph's College. and when at the four and half mile post, that the horse which they were driving either became frightened or else there was a break In the vehicle, as the wagon was wrecked and the horse continued his journey toward town with a portion of the shafts.
 Fortunately, none of the Sisters were seriously injured. although 1t was re- ported that Sister Margaret was pin time butt this was later denied. Word was sent back to the college and Fa- ther Rice, quickly went to the assist ance of the women and they were brought to St. Margarets Hospital, where 1t was stated last night that none were the worse for their experi- ence.
