Asks Pardon For Allnutt.

A petition for the pardoning of Rich
ard w. Allnutt, who was convicted in
the Circuit Court for Montgomery
county in December, 1911, of killing
his sister, Mrs. Valeria Neirs has been
laid before Governor Goldsborough.
Allnutt is now serving a sentence of IS
years in the Maryland Penitentiary.
Allnutt's wife, who made the plea for
her husbands pardon, told the Cover
nor that eight men on the jury which
convicted Allnutt had declared their
intention to return verdict of guilty
before they had heard the testimony in
the case. She had been told this, she
said, by NJ. E. Linthicum, of Mont
gomery county, who was the bailiff of
the jury at the time of the trial The
Governor told Mrs. Allnutt and her
brother-in-law. II. l.. Bushong, who &C
companied her, that they would have
to furnish afiidavits in support of this
story, as well as evidence of mitigat-
ing circumstances in Allnutt's case,
before he would undertake TO give the
petition serious consideration.

Albany, n Y, Jan. S.-After pub
licly retracting the slanderOus state
ments on which his earlier applica-
tons for mercy had been made, and
after publicly expressing contrition for
having made them, Foulke Engle
Brandt, former valet of Mortimer L.
Schiff, whom Judge Rosalsky of the
Court of General Sessions, New York
City, sent to prison for thirty years
in 1907 for burglary in the first de-
gree, committed in the home of his
former employer, was set free by the
Governor, He has served about six
years of his long term.
Brandt's freedom, however is con-
ditional. He jumped at conditions i'm
posed by the Governor. They were
incorporated in the formal pardon,
which was handed to him at the close
of one of the most dramatic hearings
ever had in the Executive Chamber at
the Capitol. Here are the conditions:
Upon the application for this par
don, Foulke Engle Brandt, as condi-
ton OF securing this pardon, solemnly
promised the Governor that he would
not appear in public upon the stage
or otherwise In connection with this
case, or seek to gain notoriety by
writing the history thereof, or by dis
GUESSING it in public for pay or other
wise
He also assured the Governor that
tE-h oT CT u ba bod Il IN,
writing, or otherwise rejecting upon
the character of any person connected
with the case was absolutely false.
and as a further condition of securing
the pardon has promised not to repeat
these assertions.
"a violation of either of these prom
ises will be regarded as sufficient to
revoke this pardon and cause him to
be remanded to prison"
Brandt is not a martyr" said the
Governor AS an individual he is
entitled to little consideration. have
no sympathy for Brandt. but I have
great regard for the due administra.
ton of Justice
Brandt when he left the Executive
Chamber did so as the ward of United
States Senator Knute Nelson of Min
nesota. who in a sense has accepted
responsibility for his future conduct.
They went to New York together.
Senator Nelson announced before he
left that he would send Brandt out to
Minnesota. where employment and a
home are awaiting him
Forty-two of the largest Swedish
societies in New York and vicinity,
representing total of over 10000
Scandinavians, asked a pardon for
Brandt.

Plan New Bridge On Severn.

With view to securing an appro-
priation from Congress toward the
construction Of a modern concrete
bridge across the Severn river, Chair
man Weller, Engineer Shirley and
Secretary William L. Marcy, of the
State Roads Commission, held a con-
ference with Superintendent Gibbons,
Of the Naval Academy. The idea is
to remove the county bridge and the
bridge Of the Maryland Electric Rail
ways and erect in their stead con-
crete span for the accommodation of
railway and vehicle traffic, with foot
paths for pedestrians. Federal aid is
sought in the project. as the present
county bridge is contiguous to Federal
property and the county road passes
through and around a good stretch Of
the Government reservation. Accord
ing to the plans the State, county and
railway company will each bear por-
ton of the cost of the proposed bridge
and with an appropriation from the
Federal Government the expense to
all parties concerned would be great
ly lessened.

next time. The time came when the

Boss Kelly wasn't trusting his polit-

over for a week, and then installed
Miss Kate Doland, seventeen years
old, and the daughter of a widow.
There was craft and there was graft
in the movement.
The boss had a mortgage on the
widows home. The daughter was to

two Of the sum was to be credited on
the mortgage.

the girls head as she went to work.
The boss chuckled. He had made
himself safe. The girl must catch on
to more or less, but she would not
dare to betray him: And right there
Boss Kelly made the same mistake
that the reformers had made.
When the private secretary had
held her position for year she was
an "insider" on facts enough to make
cold chills creep up and down the
spines of the gang as they thought of
being given away, but she was loyal
There were no leaks from headquar-
tiers. She had come to hate Boss
Kelly, but she was no traitor. At the
end of two years she could have sent
a dozen others to prison, but she was
still loyal. In few months more the
mortgage on the house would be paid
off and she would look for another
place
The girl started in befogged as to
politics. She finally came to discover
the trickery and knavery of 1t all.
The dishonesty was not all on one
side. If she hated the side she work
ed for, she came to detest the insin-
cerity of the other. Graft was the I'M

did not consider that the girl might
fall in love, and that her love for some
one else might overbalance her fear
of him.

GIRL and BOSS"
When the Wave Of Reform Start
ed to Move.
BY GRACE KERRIGAN.

1t had taken Jake Kelly five years
to become the political boss of the
young city of Grafton, but he had
reached the pinnacle at last He had
his newspaper; he owned most of the
saloons; he owned a majority Of the
aldermen; his ward-heelers were mum,
bered by the score.
From the outset, the respectable
element had fought the boss, but Mr.
Kelly's ways were too sly for them.
With every promise of reform on his
part, he drew the chains tighter He
did not go too fast, but made every,
thing solid and lasting, and prepared
an heritage for his old age.
The chief reason why Boss Kelly
got his start and continued to flourish
was that the better class did not size
him up right. Because he could
scarcely write his name and had no
social standing whatever, or aspired
to any, he was regarded until too late
as an ignoramus who could be
squelched whenever the wave of re-
form got ready to move. In due time
it was ready, and then 1t was discov-
cred that Boss Kelly owned the town.
For the first two years of his reign
Mr.. Kelly could not see the need of
private secretary. When a "divvy"
came his way the cash was showed
into his pocket, and the amount was
recorded in his memory alone. When
he had made up his mind as to who
should be the next mayor of the town
there was a back-room pow-wow in
stead of letter-writing. When it look
ed as if an election might be close the
boss didn't send out his instructions
in writing. He took little walks under
cover of darkness, and as he leaned
over the bar of this or that saloon he
whispered to the proprietor:
I'VE shall want about 400 majority
in your precinct. See that we get it,
They always got 1t. The reformers
raised howl about ballot-box stuffing

Mr.. RAYNER EULOGIZED
Memorial Addresses Delivered At
Maryland Court OF Appeals.


The bench and bar of Maryland paid
tribute to the memory VI TIC 49,.
United States Senator Isidor Rayner,
his character and the services rem
dered by him to the State and nation
at a memorial service held in the room
of the Court of Appeals.
Many prominent lawyers of the
State were present to hear the
eulogies on the life of the distinguish
ed statesman, and all the judges of the
States highest tribunal were in their
seats ON the bench, with the exception
Of Judge John p Briscoe, who was
called away by the death of his bro.
Their.
Shortly before 3 o'clock the Court,
which had been listening to argu
ments in cases on the days assign
meat, suspended business, as the ora
tors who were to deliver the eulogies
filed into the courtroom and took
seats at the lawyers table. Governor
Goldsborough also was present.
Several relatives Of the late Sen
ator came to Annapolis for the cere
monies, but Mrs. Rayner was pre-
vented from making the trip There
were present Mr. and Mrs William B.
Rayner, son and daughter-in-law OF
the Senator, and their sons, Archibald
Rayner and Isidor Rayner, Jr.; Mrs
Dishman, of Spokane, Falls, Wash,
sister OF Mrs. Isidor Rayner, and Mr.
Alexander Sinclair, who was closely
associated with Senator Rayner for
a number of years.
Attorney-General Edgar Allan Poe,
in behalf of the State, delivered the
opening address, and he was followed
by Judge James Alfred Pearce, who
retired from the Appellate Bench a
few weeks ago; Attorney George
Whitelock, of Baltimore; former At.
torney General William Shepard
Bryan, Jr., and former Attorney-Gen
eral Isaac Lobe Straus.
At the conclusion of the address
Chief Judge A. Hunter Boyd added a
high tribute, concluding with the
statement that, as a further mark of
respect, he would direct the proceed
ings TO be spread upon the minutes OF
the court and that the court would
adjourn for the day.
Acknowledgement Poe reviewed
briefly the public career Of Senator
Rayner and said:
Although lawyer of distinguished
ability, a fact better known to none
than to the members of this court, be-
fore which he appeared on so many
occasions, Mr.. Rayner was especially
qualified and equipped for public life,
and it was in that field of labor that
he attained his chief successes, &C,
quired his greatest reputation and
reached the pinnacle of his fame.
Mr. Rayner was a national charac-
ter and his reputation was national,
and deservedly so. His defense of
Admiral Schley, undertaken without
reward or hope OF reward, solely, in
order that he might help to right a
public wrong that had been done a
gallant sailor and brave gentleman,
has stamped him as one of the great
est orators OF his generation.
He was a statesman in the truest
and best sense of the word. His con-
Germ was the welfare OF the whole
people.
His career reflected great credit
upon the State he so faithfully repre-
scented, and in his death both the State
and nation suffered grievous loss"

r Turkish families. and through them

i sr Turkish families. and through them
revolutionary ideas have found their
way into the heads of Turkish women.
One already hears of protests against
| the harem on the part of those Turk
ish women who have received Eu-
ropean education. Leila Fitnet and
Nlguar Hanem are leading Turkish
writer's of today. Their novels and
poems are full of protests against the
deplorable condition of Turkish wom-
en-.
Down with the harem. Down with
the veilw This has been the bat
tlecry of educated Turkish women
lately. Naturally it has aroused vic.
lent opposition on part of the ortho-
dox Mohammedan element, especially
the clergy. The conservative class
has begun to fight the ideas of social
reform more vehemently than it has
fought for the old tyrannic regime.
But on the other side the reform
party has succeeded in having the best
works of foreign fiction and drama
published in Turkish, which are eager
ly read by women in the harems.
Mirhi Nissa Hanounm has been hail
ed as the pioneer of the Turkish femi-
nine movement. She started her prop
| aganda only three years ago; but now
the number of her followers amounts
to two thousand women in the Otto
man empire.
The initiative was made with good
deal of dramatic effect. After having
finished her three-act play, "The Har-
| emless Home" she sent out a cou-
pie of hundred invitations to the male
and female members Of Constantine
pie upper society. That woman in.
vited men caused a great sensation;
but much more ensued when the curl
Gus guests found that the haremlil,
| Of the hostess was transformed into
west European music hall, and she
went unveiled among the male guesta
and shook hands with them. The sho X
was still greater after she had read
her play, which she announced to
them was to be put on the stage with
herself in the leading role.
Turkish women are fundamentally
the same as all other women, which
is shown by the contagion that en-
sued few days afterward, when
women of the upper class unhesitat-
ingly walked unveiled in the streets
Of Constantinople, chatting freely with
their male companions. 1t caused a
sensation such as the ancient city
had never experienced before, and
gave shock to custom that marked
the final change to modernism.

Mayor Arnold first appointed a
Democrat to fill the vacancy caused
by the resignation of Alderman Eley
and now he has appointed Progress
sive nsrnhlican to fill the vacancy
caused by the resignation of Weigele.
The two men resigned rather than
face a recall election. The Progress
sive Republican was not an aspirant
and never held office and was not
even consulted, but after comforting
with large number of citizens of
the ward he was selected and the first
intimation he had was when informed
of the appointment by reporter.
This is business and will go long
way to make Mayor Arnold's admin
istration popular. Shows he is not
hide-bound and is carrying out his
promises to have business admin
istration. Would there were more
like him.
