tense upon the claim that he killed
Cornett because the latter had insulted
his sister and iwife and, with gun,
was locking for him, to take his life,
yet he did not at once surrender to the
officers of the law, giving above as his
reasons for the deed.
"On the contrary, he was visitor at
Cornett's house the morning after the
killing, and it was only after the de-
veloping facts indicated him as the
guilty party that he yielded himself to
the sheriff. And it is to be further
noted that he went to Columbus to give
himself up, because he said, Il don't
feel safe to surrender here in Harris
county. Surely we may ask: why
should he fear mob violence from his
neighbors il his act was to vindicate
insuIted womanhood, or was in defense
OF his own life
"No gun or pistol was found in Cor
nett's house after his death, and it is
clear from the court record that he
owned no frearm, and made no attempt
to borrow one until he heard that Strip
ling was armed with a gun and threat
ening his life, and that he then sought
the loan of gun 'to protect himself if
attacked.
1.-THE array OF sworn testimony drew
from the jury which Stripping had
helped to select, a verdict of murder,
with recommendation for mercy. The
sentence OF imprisonment for life was
passed upon STRIPPING and upon Huff,
who had been indicted with him.
"Above the rolling tide and obscur-
ing fog OF sympathetic pleas and emo
tons, we cannot fail to see the rock of
the record which shows that Thomas
Edgar STRIPPING, by a jury OF his peers,
was convicted OF the murder of a fell
bowman; that he afterward violated a
second law OF Georgia by breaking Jail
and fleeing to another state, and that,
onmeshed in the complications OF his
crime, his own brother-in-law, Terrell
Huff, was sent TO the penitentiary,
within which he was confined at hard
labor until, through doubts as to his
guilt, on recommendation of the prison
commission, he was set free.
II greatly regret, therefore, that un
der the conditions as enumerated, do
not feel justified in interrupting in this
case the due process OF law, hence be-
ing convinced that the supreme duty
of protecting the people rests as heavily
on the executive department as on the
judiciary, | am forced to decline the
application for pardon filed by Thomas
Edgar STRIPPING "

WHY THE DONKEY HAS LONG
EARS AND THE BEAVER LIVES
IN WATER.
Richmond E. Bond, Aged II Years.

Prize Story from Child Lore"
One Sunday Mr.. Donkey was taking
a walk, and, thinking that he would
like to have some company, he
dropped into Mr.. Beavers house on
the hill. Mr. Donkey rang the bell,
and, as the Beaver was at home, they
started for a long walk. When they
had gone about mile, Mr.. Beaver
said: Il am in need of some wood so
believe l will stop in Mr.. Bears
wood-shed and get some"
Il think | will go with you," said
Mr.. Donkey. So off they started to
Mr.. Bears wOod-shed When they
got to the shed, they found the door
ajar. They stepped inside and began
gathering some wood, when Mr.. Bear
came into the back yard and saw
them stealing the wood AS he got
about half way to the door, Mr. Beaver
espied him and crept out, leaving the
Donkey alone.
Mr. Bear came on, and saw Mr.
Donkey in his shed, and said, "Ha, ha,
I've caught you at last" And he
closed the shed door and locked it.
OF course Mr.. Donkey did not like
this. but could do nothing.
That night Mr.. Beaver came back
to the shed to see how the Donkey
was getting on. Going up to the door
he got it half ajar, so that the Donkey
could get his ears out. Then Mr.
Beaver took hold of his ears and
pulled and pulled until they began to
stretch and stretch, till they grew to
be about a foot long. Mr.. Donkey
then got mad and jerked his head
back.
Next morning Mr. Bear let the Don
key out. The latter then went to find
the Beaver, and when he found him.
chased him down to the river and
made him jump into the water and
stay in until he was used to it. The
Donkey stayed in a boat on the river
for the next few days, so that the
Beaver could not get out. Ever since
Donkeys have had long ears, and
Beavers have lived in water.

GOV. BROWN REFUSES
TO PARDON STRIPPING
Reviews Crime and Says
He Cannot Interfere
With Sentence.

Governor Brown has refused to par
don Thomas Edgar STRIPPING, who
killed w. j. Cornett in Harris county
fourteen years ago, and who escaped
Jail and was recently arrested in Dan
vile, Virginia, where he held the Office
OF chief of police.
The Prison Commission had recon-
mended the pardon OF Stripping, but
the governor takes the view that the
mere fact that Stripping has been at
liberty for fourteen years, within
which time he has killed two mem is
no reason for the due processes OF the
courts to be set aside by the executive.
Stripping is in jail in Columbus,
and his family is still in Danville. He
will have to go to the penitentiary and
begin serving the life sentence imposed
for his crime. 1t is likely that he will
be pardoned, in the course of time,
however, when the majesty of the law
has been sufficiently recognized.
Governor Browns statement OF the
case is very interesting In the course
OF it he says:
Zone can scarcely imagine an as
sassination characterized by a more
complete absence of the elements of
courageous manhood in him who COM
mitted it.
''In his statement at the trial, Strip
ling asserted that he had killed Cor
nett because the latter had sue
cessively insulted his (Stripling's)
sister and wife, and had threatened his
life and was on the lookout for him
with a gun.
at is not for me to say that the jury
and the supreme court were both
wrong, and to decide this case exactly
opposite to the way they decided it on
exactly the same issues.
"A most notable fact is that, although
STRIPPING went into minute details of
the incidents and conversations, yet
he made not the slightest reference to
the note which Mrs STRIPPING now says
Cornett wrote to her, lust prior to the
killing and which she adds she gave
to her husband before the killing.
"No incident could have been so
dramatic, so electrifying to to the jury
as the exhibition Of that note in court,
or even convincing reference to it; but
there was neither.
THE trial record shows that, when
shot, Cornett was sitting by a cot, or
lounge, evidently preparing to retire
He had taken off his coat, unbuttoned
his suspenders and thrown them back
over his shoulders, and was STOPPING
over, having just united the string of
the shoe on his right foot, when shot
through the window by some one hid,
den by the darkness without.
So close was the muzzle OF the gun
to the window that the broken glass
was stained by the burned powder, so
stealthy was he who shot that Cornett
heard not sound to give him warning
for remonstrance, defense or flight :;
and so instantaneously came the par
alysis of death with the slugs which
pierced his brain that, while his head
by its gravity bent over against the
pillow on the lounge by his side, his
fingers were still on the shoe by the
strings he had clasped to unite.
at is a notable fact that, although
STRIPPING, at the trial. based his de-
