AS Johnson approached, Becker
stood up. He greeted Johnson with
a hearty hand clasp. The deputy war
den hesitated for the fraction of
moment and then said in a low clear
tone:

Your appeal has been denied"
Becker appeared dazed as he heard
the words. but he only pressed John

Becker grasped the bars OF his cell
and bowed his head as If in prayer.
The lines on his face were craven as
he raised his head again. He had

OLD soLDIK1s REBUKE
THE DE1rvER POST

Denver, May 3l.-It would seem that
the proprietors of the Denver Post
would wake up to the position they
find themselves in with the people of
Denver. Today they sent the Denver
Post band to lead the Grand Army pa
rade, but when it arrived at the gath
ering place the leader was told by the
Grand Army men that they did not
want the band and for them to go
back home. The old soldiers said that
they were loyal to the laws of the
country and stood for decency and
would not have anything to do with
the silly Denver Post or its band. They
had nothing against the members of
the band personally, but did not for
q moment wish that the people of the
state should think that they counte-
nanced the methods of the Denver Post.
