Must Remain in Pen-Albin Sundberg
Of this city, who is serving a term in
the penitentiary at Joliet for the mur.
er of Carl Nelson, will not be paroled
for at least another year. Word to
this effect has just been received by
K. T. Anderson, cashier of the State
bank of Rock Island, and Rev. S. G..
Hagglund, pastor of the First Swed-
ish Lutheran church in Rock Island,
who have interested themselves in
Sundberg's behalf. Mr.. Anderson re-
ceived a letter from the clerk of the
board of pardons, which said that
Sundberg would not be released on
parole for another year. Whether
the young man will be released at
that time or whether his case will
again be taken up at that time by
the board Of pardons, Mr.. Anderson
cannot tell. Dr. Joseph DeSilva is
in Joliet at the present time and he
will make a personal investigation of
the matter and report on his return.
The subject of pardoning Sundberg
was taken up last month but at that
time the board of pardons desired a
more complete knowledge of the case.
The states attorney was requested
to furnish information desired for
the June meeting This was done
but the pardon was not granted.

Ban on Giant Crackers.-Small boys
with cannon crackers made their APP
pearance on the streets yesterday
with the result that city authorities
have taken action. Police were in
structed to notify all dealers handling
fireworks to discontinue the sale of
giant crackers. 1t had beeh hoped
by city officials that dealers would
not lay in supply of giant firecrack-
ers and other dangerous fireworks as
an ordinance was passed prohibiting
the discharge of such July 4 or any
other day. This action was taken at
an early period in order that dealers
would not place orders and find
themselves stocked with dead"
goods. Where these boys purchased
the cannon crackers was not learned
but every dealer in the city will be
visited and given orders. If sale is
not discontinued offenders will be
punished.

ALL ALONE IN THE STORM
Inside, the Merry Country Party
VOTED Not of the ForIorn Figure
Out In tho Cold.

1t was bitter cold The snow fell
thickly, and. driven by the wind, It
beat relentlessly against the faces of
those who were not sheltered. A wild
night, indeed. Midwinter, and in the
open country. and one of the coolest
nights In the memory Of the Oldest in
habitant.
He stood not far from the winding,
snowbound road, his face turned to-
ward the highway. A forlorn object
In that great storm.
His old felt hat. damned roughly on
his head, but Unprotected his face and
ears from the chilly blasts. He wore
no Uvercoat only light and much
frayed jacket, more fitted, indeed. for
summer weather than the zero tenn.
perature of that night. His hands
were unprotected by gloves, while his
trousers. thin and worn, futtered
about his legs. He wore no shoes.
Inside the great farm, close by. the
lights blazed merrily, and through the
windows, from which the shades were
drawn, could be seen many young peo
pie passing hither and thither. A
merry country party-youth and
laughter.
And now through the storm others.
make their way to tho farmhouse
They are bundled up warm and com.
Portable, and defy the snow and the
cold They are happy in the anticipa
ton OF the joyful evening before them
Care and worry have no part in their

they do not know that close by
stands that ill.clothed figure, with
arms stretched appealingly forth. and
lhey knew there would be no pity
IN their hearts.
