is SEEKING RELEASE
oldest Convict Asks to Be
Given a Pardon.
(Nationsl News Associa tion)

HARTFORD, Conn, June 10
Among the haIf-hundred petitions laid
before the Connecticut board of par
dons for consideration and action to-
day was an application for the pardon
of John Warren, who is serving life
sentence in the state penitentiary at
Wethersfield. Warren has the unen-
viable distinction of being the oldest
convict in the United States in point
of service He had just attained his
majority when he was received at
the penitentiary to begin life SEN
tence for the murder of his young
wife. Today he Is an old man of sew
enty-four, with record of fifty-three
years spent behind prison walls. The
State board of pardons is familiar
with every detail of Warren's case.
Seven times has the board considered
a petition for the old mans release
and seven times has the petition been
turned down. Whether the eighth peti-
ton will meet with similar fate will
soon be known. Warren has been a
model convict and it Is safe TO say that
there ia not an official or inmate of
the state prison who would not be
glad to learn that the old man would
be released to spend his last years in
freedom.

1.-THE King of Liars"

''The King of Liars" will be pre-
sented by the Lewis & Oliver Players
at the Murray Theater tonight. In the
first act, young man is arrested for
trying to demolish a hotel office. He
had been out for several days, and had
imbibed too freely. His sentence is 60
days. His friend arranges for him to
spend the time at an insane asylum
and here is where the real fun begins.
All the characters are crazy or pretend
to be when speaking to others. The
play is extremely funny, and the Incl
dents that follow are inimitable, and
the fun is incessant. The play was
written for laughing purposes only.
"The King of Liars" will be present
ed the first three days of this week
and "On Stroke of Twelve" the last
half of the week. There will be four
teen people in the cast next week. Mat

A BUSINESS REVIEW OF THE
PAST WEEK BY HENRY CLEWS

er large issues are pending the bond
Evidently there is abundance of capt.
tai obtainable when rates and condi-
uons are satisfactory. Railroad shares
are more firmly held, since with few
exceptions traffic is improving and the
outlook is satisfactory. The better
class of industrial shares are also
firm. owing TO the prospects for in
creased activity. Copper shares have
shown surprising strength as a result
OF higher prices for the metal and the
increased amounts going forward into
actual consumption. The strength of
the metal, however. is largely due TO
successful manipulation

except for a slight hardening in time
rates. No material change is anticipat-
ed until preparations for the harvest
are in order, The banking situation as
whole is exceptionally sound No lit
tie interest is aroused over the inouisi-
torial policy of the Government in the
money trust investigation, and il is
quite likely and proper that bank of
ficers will do all in their power 10 legi-
timately guard the interests of their
clients as confidential There are some
things regarding high finance and
banking operations upon which the
light may be advantageously turned,
but any wholesale prying into the con
idential relations of the banks will be
strongly discouraged by sound public
opinion. however desirable il may be
as source OF political capital during
the campaign. Fortunately investiga.
ton of the most delicate issues has
been deferred until after the election.

BULLETS IN BATTLE.
They Play Queer Franks at Times on
Their Mission Of Death.


Their Mission Of Death.
At the battle of Peach Orchard.
when Mcclellan was making his
change Of base. a Michigan infantry
man fell to the ground as If shot dead
and was left lying in a heap as the
regiment changed position. The bullet
that had hit him first struck the barrel
Of his gun. then glanced and struck of
a button Of his coat, tore the watch out
Of his vest pocket and struck the man
just over the heart. where it was
stopped by a song book in his shirt
pocket. He was unconscious for three
quarters of an hour. and it was a full
month before the black and blue spot
disappeared.
At Pittsburg Landing a member of
the Twelfth Michigan infantry stopped
to give a wounded man a drink from
his canteen. While in this act a bullet
aimed at his breast struck the canteen
and buried itself in the leg Of horse.
The canteen was split open and drop
ped to the ground in halves.
At the second battle Of Bull Run a
Nc" Ioih Auidhtt udh was passing
tobacco to a comrade when a bullet
struck the plug. glanced off and buried
itself in a knapsack. The tobacco was
rolled up like a ball of shavings and
carried Il hundred feet away. Directly
in the line Of the bullet was the head
Of lieutenant. and had not the bullet
been detected he would certainly have
been wounded or killed thereby. AS 1t
was. he had both eyes filed with to-
bacco dust and had to be led to the
rear.
At Brandy Station one Of Clusters
troopers had his left stirrup strap cut
away by grapeshot, which passed be-
tween his leg and the horse, blistering
the skin as If a red hot iron had been
used. He discounted to ascertain the
extent of his injuries, and as he bent
over a bullet knocked his hat off and
killed his horse.
In the same fight Q trooper had suf-
fered several days with a toothache.
In a hand to hand conflict he received
a pistol ball in the right cheek. 1t
knocked out his aching tooth and
passed out through the left corner OF
his mouth, taking along a part of an
upper tooth. The Joy Of getting rid of
the toothache was so great that the
trooper could not be made to go to the
rear to have his wound dressed.-Ex-

TAYLOR FLAYED JONES.
And Then, to Get Square, the Revival.
ist Told q Story.

Here Is q well authenticated story Of
Sam p. Jones. revivalist and lecturer:
Jones and Ex-Governor Bob Taylor
now a United States senator from
Tennessee. seldom met professionally
in public. They were two such amaz-
1ngly good drawing cards that few
Chautauqua arrangements ever felt
able to afford both Of them in one day.
However. one management made the
plunge, and the two witty southerners
found themselves on the same plat
form.
Taylor introduced Jones. He flayed
Jones numerically, leaving little cuti-
Gle on him. The crowd laughed hearth
1y and waited for Jones to take his re-
venge.
Jones arose. He was always cool as
Ice This time was no exception. The
audience held its collective breath. The
scathing was about to begin.
Jones, however. said nothing to indi-
cate that he had even heard what Tay-
lor had said. The crowd felt that at
last Jones was overmatched. He de-
nvered his lecture and made the usual
he had not replied to Taylor
Just as Jones finished his set talk he
turned and looked at Taylor. Then he
dra wled out. with jerk of his thumb
toward Taylor:
whenever I see that man anywheh
I'm reminded of a little dawg l used
to know down in Gawgy. That dawg
lived close to the railroad track, and
every evening when the fast express
train went shooting through that little
dawg ran out and tried to eat that
train. Every night he would seem to
say: Last night didn't get it. but I've
figured out since why it was I'll get
1t this time. I'm just so hungry for an
express train!' Everybody around there
knew that dawg would be killed some
time by that train. Bound to. Couldn't
help it.
Zone hot summeh evening that train
came along fasteh than eveh. 1t was
just one big, noisy cloud OF dust. That
little dawg ran out as usual and ran
along by the tracks. He was sucked
in by the draft from the train and dis
appeared under the trucks. Everybody
said: 'Theh he went-fool dawg! We
always knew he'd get it. Now he's
killed. all right
But when that train had gone theh
came that little dawg trotting back up
the track. The train hadn't killed him
at all-only made bobtailer of him"
Presently the audience began to see
the joke in sections. and before long it
was in a scream of laughter.-Strick.
