mediate response in the mother heart.
She sat by her boy during the long
hours in which he was suspended be-
tween life and death with the flush Of
the great white plague upon him. He
was too exhausted to talk on the day
he was removed from the prison free
man, but he smiled upon his mother
nd his Sunday-school teacher, who had
been instrumental in securing his re-
lease from prison, and also his eyes
shone when button picture Of the
Governor was shown him.
Death relieved his sufferings last
night, and the body will be buried in

Talk Couldn't Be Heard.

None of his fellowworkmen knows
whether Hiram ever sent his voice after
the altitude or endurance record during
working hours. but they admit that he
might have let off the exhaust without
their knowledge. because there are many
places which are quieter than a bolt and
nut factory between seven and six. En-
ployeS who have been working there all
their lives say that it is Impossible 10
hear themselves talk while the machinery
is going. and there are those who be-
lieve that this was when Hiram exercise,
his vocal apparatus.
But e.ery time he met his friends he
was there with the finger oratory and
no one doubted him for q minute. What
adds to their wrath is the knowledge
that they have been working their fin
gers overtime in an effort TO be sociabIe
with him. One of his closest friends ex-
hibited set of fingers which was as
limp as stewed rhubard as a result of
discussing politics with Hiram This man
was wild because he had bought a pair
Of button shoes and was unable to button
them.

Gov. Wilson was ready to hand me.
Finally the knowledge of my inno-

temptations of all the things that lay out
side the prison bars appealed to me mi

the world and my accusers ovcrcame me,
and l accepted the pardon. Again, fiS-
