An English woman who not long
ago moved to Kansas City, Kan, met
a friend on the street the other day,
says the Times, and startled her by
asking:
EDO you know where I can find a
joint?'
"a joint?' gasped the friend.
"What on earth do you want to find
a joint for?''
"Why, just a natural craving. I've
been looking all over town for one. "
"Goodness." exclaimed the other,
who belonged to the w. C. T. !. Then
to be sure the English woman was
not joking, she asked:
EDO you mean liquor joint?'
"Never heard Of such a thing,'
was the reply. II mean a joint of
mutton, of course.'

PARDONS REFUSED.
Governor Anse1 Refuses to Grant
Pardons to Morgan Thrailkil and
Miller, of Saluda County.

Governor Ansel has refused elem
ency to Morgan Thrailkill, the white
man of advanced years, who killed
Benny Burton, at Monetta, in April,
1906. Thrailkill and his son, Clar-
ence, were convicted. The latter has
served OUT his time and was among
those who appeared before Governor
Ansel in making petition for the
pardon for the elder Thrailkill.
The petition was indeed strong
one and was strongly presented. 1t
is drawn up in elegant and appealing
manner, and is signed by many of the
responsible people Of Saluda, Edge
field and other counties. The plea is
the advanced age of Thrailkill, his
former alleged God-fearing and up
right life, and his conduct as pris-
oner. He is further said to be suf-
fering from disease of the kidneys
which will shorten his life and make
his services of little value to the
State.
Governor Ansel endorses on the pc
ton :"After mature consideration OF
the evidence in this case and the re-
port of the judge and solicitor, the
petition for pardon is refused. -
Solicitor Zimmerman writes that
he did not try the case, but after
reading the testimony ~ must de-
cline to recommend a pardon for pc
titioner. As I see it, the jury in this
case could have done nothing less
than convict the defendant. [ have
failed to discover the slightest neces-
sity for the killing, except the neces-
sity which the petitioner and his son,
who was convicted along with him for
manslaughter. brought about. "
Miller Refused Pardon.
Sion Miller, of Saluda, sentenced
to ten years in the penitentiary for
manslaughter, was refused pardon.
Miller was tried, with Russell Nc
Cormick and Joe B. Allen, for the
killing of Richard Truesdale, colored,
near Long Bridge, Saluda county,
June II, 1904. Mccormick and Mil
Ter were found guilty and sentenced
to ten years. Solicitor Thurmond
states in his recommendation to Gov
ernor Ansel that it is always hard
matter to secure the conviction Of a
white man for the killing Of a negro,
and that he pressed this conviction,
but now feels that the ends Of justice
have been satisfied. Miller has a
young wife'and children who are de-
pendent upon him. the petition says.
Governor Ansel. while sympathlzlng
with Miller, could not recommend the
pardon. under the circumstances.
