PAROLE TWO PRISONERS
Mccoy and Parker, Long Termers,
Gain Governors Clemency.

Paroles for William G. Mccoy, con-
victed of wife murder in Elk county
in May, 1904, and for Eli Parker, con-
victed for the killing of another negro
in Kansas City, Kan, have been grant
ed by Governor Hodges on recommen-
dation of Warden Codding and the pa
role board.
Mccoy was 20 years old when he
was convicted on a charge of numbering
his wife. 1t was the contention of the
state that Mccoy shot his wife and
himself following quarrel. The wife
died, but Mccoy recovered from his
injuries and was found guilty of first
degree murder. An attorney appointed
by the court defended Mccoy. He was
appointed the day of the trial and the
trial judge refused a continuance of
the case even for one day. Mccoy had
served nine years to the day when
his parole was granted.
Eli Parker, Kansas City, Kan, ne
gro was sent to the penitentiary for
q years for the killing of another ne
gro. Parker and a man named Nor
gan were both convicted of the crime.
Because both men could not be sem
fenced under the courts instructions,
Morgan was released. Parker has al
ways contended that Morgan and not
himself was guilty of murder

ing of Junction City, who was former
ly employed by Walter Mullins, testi-
fled in the case of the state against
Paul Roberts, who is charged with the

Inns offered him transportation to San

money if he would put King out OF
the way.
According to chickering's testimony,
Mullins told him he would hire a big
black negro to do the job, if he (Pick-
ering) would not do it.
Mullins stated, according to Picker
ing, that King was in the habit of go
ing to the depot and dragging buns
from the trains in the evenings and
that he could "get" King while he was
doing this.

SAVES ELDERLY PEOPLE FROM
KIDNEY AND BLADDER MISERIES
Sleep Disturbing Bladder Weaknesses Bacache Joints
Rheumatic Pains Disappear After Few are Taken

While people along in years are nat
urally more subject to weak kidneys,
they can avoid the fortunes of back
ache, and rheumatism, and be saved
the annoyance of getting up at night
with disagreeable bladder disorders,
for the new discovery, Croxone, quick
ly relieves the most severe and OBJ
Stinate cases.
Croxone relieves these conditions
by removing the cause. 1t is the most
wonderful remedy ever devised for
Kidding the system of uric acid. 1t is
entirely different from all other reme-
dies. It is not like anything else ever
used for the purpose. Croxone makes
the kidneys filter the blood and sift
out all the poisonous acids and waste
matter that cause these troubles.
1t soaks right in and cleans out the
stopped up, inactive kidneys like

water does a sponge, dissolves, and
drives out every particle of uric acid
and other poisonous impurities that
lodge IN the joints and muscles and
cause rheumatism. 1t neutralizes the
urine so it no longer irritates the blad-
der, overcomes unnecessary breaking
of sleep and destores the kidneys and
bladder to health and strength.
It matters not how long Won have
suffered, how old you are, or what
else you have used. The very prin-
cfple of Croxone is such that it is prac-
tlcally impossible to take 1t into the
human system without results It
starts to work the minute you take it
and relieves you the first time you use
It. You can secure an original pack
age of Croxone at trifling cost, and all
druggists are authorized to return the
purchase price if it fails in a single
caSe.-Adv.

WILLARD WINNER?
Will Defeat GunbOat Smith if
Size and Condition Count.
Big Kansan Is Admired by
Fight Followers.

San Francisco, May 1.-THE things
most talked about in connection with
the coming heavyweight contest are
Jess Wizards size and Gunboat
Smiths knockout punch. But size is
Wizards main characteristic, While the
''wallop' is what Smith is known by.
Wizards size, is, of course something
definite. while the wallop is largely
a menace, but it is agreed on all sides
that if the two collide and size is sub
dued by the punch, Gunboat will be
hailed as a second Jack the Giant
Killer.
You have to look this fellow Willard
over carefully to grasp how big he is.
When he stepped on the scales at Seal
Rock House few days ago he weighed
233 pounds in the nude.
There is a difference of fifty pounds
in the weight of Willard and Smith and
this surely is a big handicap to over
come The disparity seems strange in
view of the manner in which the boxers
in other classes split hairs over a few
ounces, but it is a fact nevertheless.
Jim Buckley, manager of Gunboat,
is inclined to be jocular over Wizards
size. Jim is a believer in the old sio-
gan THE bigger they are the harder
they fall But Jim would feel surer
of his ground We're it not for the man.
ner in which Willard outboxed the
present white champion of the world,
Luther McCarty, last August in New
York.
If physical worth counts for much,
Jess Willard, the Kansas cowboy,
would have to be considered as having
an excellent chance of winning over
Gunboat Smith.
At the same time a comparison of the
two men is interesting enough for the
followers of the boxing game. Smith
weighs something like $50 pounds,
which will be close to his ringside
poundage. Willard is a 233 pound man
at the present time so he will have a
round so pounds advantage. The Kan
san will stand feet 6 inches. which
is five more inches in height than
Smith can muster and height. as has
been said, is a help to a man in the
ring.
In other ways Willard proves by the
