penitentiary at the hands of Governor
Stubbs. Choteau is serving a sent
ence imposed for raiding a Chanute
barn, stealing four horses and driving
them to Kansas City, where they
were sold.
Recently the executive pardon clerk
made a trip through the prison seek
ing out the prisoners reckoned wor-
thy of parole. Choteau had an eX
cellent record and had established
himself as thoroughly reliable The
clerk interviewed him relative to n
possible release. The prisoner in
formed the clerk that he had no de-
sire to leave the prison until he has
completed his term
When Choteau's reasons for loving
the company of convicts is known he
will not be considered wholly crazy.
He stays in because he is a trusty. be-
cause he has no desire to steal while
in, because his work brings him more
| in the end than he could save outside,
and the best reason of all is, he does
missionary and charity work among
/ the prisoners.
Born With Craving to Steal.
Choteau is 80 years old. When he
was II, he eloped from small Mis-.
souri, town with the niece of a ia
nous and wealthy Missouri brewer.
This union was short and sweet. His
! Girl wife was torn from him because
he would steal But he was not a com.
mon thief II was a disease, a dis.
order of the brain. But the state Off.
cials were not specialists and he was
| locked up with a thousand.
Choteau was later married again,
but this wife died. His children are
grown and looking after themselves.
SO il does not matter. He makes him
/ self happy by contributing to other
unfortunate families whose husbands
and fathers are in prison. He founded
the Choteau fund among the prison
ers, which today is famous all over
the country. Every month each pris-
Cner gives part of his income to a
general purse, which is used to aid
the families of prisoners that are
needy. Choteau contributes literally
to this fund and superintends the dis.
position of ii. This is his chief pleas
ure But he has another-the old.
time sweetheart comes occasionally
10 visit him. While his hair is turn.
ing gray. his love for her has not
abated. True. it is not the gushing
flower song poetic variety: but 1t is
as deep an affection as it was in the
days when he played the part of a
Lochinvar on the lower banks of the
Missouri.
Married to Save Self
II may he asked. why did he mar
ry? Because there were ten long
wears that he never saw his first wife
and he thought he could help himself
by making a home. His home once
gone and the prison was his only sal
vation-then the old love came back. |
She is now married TO another man. |
And while she is as true as steel 10 /
her home and family, she never will |
forget Jerry.
As to Jerry freedom. he can get It,
but Governor Stubbs will let him use
his judgment as to what freedom is.

THE SALON OF MADAME DU
MAINE.

1t was With no little interest that I
looked about me. for the salon OF the
Duchess du Maine was one OF the most
famous In France. My first impression
was N of disappointment, for the
scene was less striking than 1 had
thought 10 find it. Groups of people
were scattered here and there down the
long room. and at the farther end a
little court was gathered about Il lady
whom 1 did not u was the duchess
herself. There We're few other women
present. a circumstance which greatly
~astonished me. and the men had q sim
gular diversity OF dress and manner
~hetokeniIlg that it was no ordinary mo-
tive which had Drawn them together
from so many ranks Of life n so
many strata OF society. 1t needed but Il
glance TO tell mo that these were not
wits and beaux, but. in Richelieu's
words. men OF action. Nearly every one
looked up as We entered with, as IT
seemed to me, a vague air of fear, but
this vanished instantly when they saw
that Richelicu was my companion.
"Ah. Mile. dc Iaunay.' said the duke
to a young lady who FASTENED to us
from the nearest group. Il trust for

You know it has been the custom of
NJ. de Rey to accompany me home from

such occasions as I have been there re-
Gently. and in the course of the Jour-
ney we are compelled to cross the
Place des Vic oires. In the first stages
Of his passion NJ. de Rey would walk
me carefully aroun the sides of this
square In order to make the Journey
longer, but as his affection gradually
cooled he took a more direct course,

his love has diminished in the same
