One of the saddest features con- nected with the duties of the gover- nor’s office is to listen to the plead- mothers or wives to have their errivg sons or husbands pardoned from the peni- tentiary, says the Jefferson City Tribune. Although such sights | happen almost daily, yet familiarity with such misery does not produce | indifference Yesterday a good look ing young woman, accompanied by two pretty little girls, applied to Gov. Stone to have her husband and brother in-law pardoned. They were icted before Judge Anthony of the Nodaway county circuit court last September of receiving stolen property aud sentenced to the peni tentiary for two years. It was plain that the faithful wife was not familiar with the methods of procuring executive clemency, as she had no petition or recommenda tion of any kind on which to base her application. In a few words she told Gov. Stone of the circumstances ings of grief-stricken ESE AA TR er es se RAVAGES OF THE PLAGUE. | ee | Korg Per Day.

In afew kind words Gov. Stone told her that ne could not pardon the men without tome evidence of their innocence or witigating circumstauces outside = the sympathetic belief of the heart- broken wife. He added that he would look into the matter if pre- sented in the usual way. The woman evidently had hoped to secure the release of the men, and her disappointment was very great. Tears filled her eyes, and, taking one little girl in her arms and an- other by the hand, she sadly left the capitol. A similar scene can be wit- nessed almost any day. No matter how strong the convincing evidence may be, mothers and wives will not believe that their loved ones are guilty. The saddest part of the whole matter is that these women are always poor and their condition is bound to excite the sympathy of anyone who possesses a good heart. They will work hard and scrimp and save to come to Jefferson City to plead for the release of some one who is not worthy ef their affection, only to be disappointed in most cases. If sons and husbands only realiz- ed the amount of suffering and pri- vations their crimes entail upon innocent and helpless mothers and wives, more of them would certainly so conduct themselves as to keep out of the penitentiary. Of Interest to Business Men. Washington, D. C, July 14.— Business circles will be interested in the bill which passed the house com mittee on judiciary yesterday pro- viding that all contracts hereafter executed for the payment of any sum of money, whether in geld, sil- ver or coin, may be discharged by iny money which is by lay a legal! tender for the payment of debt The author of the measure, M Lane of Illinois, explains that it intended to regulate the practice in the Federal courts in regard to en- tering judgments and to preserve the stability and uninormity of the| currency. | From a bushel of corn a distiller} gets four gallons of whisky, which | retails at $16.

How the Utes Account for the Existence of | Fire Among Mortals. One of the most remarkable of the | American Indian fire 1 the Utes. They tell of a time in the remote past when all the world and the Utes } in rticular, were without fire ar shivering with cold. One day a sr Heaven and was caught the beak of a talking bird, an o tion which, of course, smothere: the fire. The bird was one of the m ke good the loss, t fire was, © it could be obtained he place the bird told of was far to tory species, and to m told an old chief wha wh and the south of the Ute country, it was decided to station braves at the distance of “one run” apart, and in npt to bring a lighted land of the “fire peo- es a from t The emissary sent on this i mission provided himself with an in structible torch in the shape of a head- dress made of eagle plumes. He then stationed his men at the distance of one run apart along the entire from the Ute country to the fire.” The Ute found the fire people dane- ing around a sacred flame, whieh is- sued from a rock, and he joined them in their rites Presently, as he danced he dipped his plumes in the flame, and immediately he started, his head all ablaze, towards Uteland. He ran with the swiftness of a deer to where the mportant route ‘land of first sentinel was concealed, and deliv- The [| ered to him the precious charge. first sentinel did as the emissary done. delivering it to the next in 1 and in this manner the Utes came by the blessed boon of tire. But this is only part of this curious aboriginal tale. The Utes laid the torch at the roots of a mighty tree,and a wind sprang up and i the fire into the forest, where it raged until all the trees in those parts were destroyed Finally, after repeatedly appealing to the god Tawatz, a rain came and ex tinguished the fire, all except a single ember, which a turtle sat upon aud saved. To this day the turtle is popu- larly known as the “‘Ute’s fire bird,” and the Utes themselves are the most careful people in the world in the handling of tire, seeming to be in con- stant dread lest it should get beyond their control. Now a word in regard to so-called re-worshipers,” the mode Par- sees. In spite of all the statements to the contrary, the Parsee is not a worshiper. True, fire plays a large partin his religious ceremonials, but tosay that he worships that element does hima great injustice The edu cated Parsee will declare that to him fire is the emblem of the power of God Fire and light of every sort is regarded with reverence by the Parsee, and they always pray with the face turned to the sun or some other source of light, but when that is said all is said, for they worship but one God, and wor- ship Him as devoutly as Christians the Gol of the Bible.—St. Louis R public ri 1 IN THE “TURKISH “HAREM.
