There is nothing to be sald, or heard, now in mitigation of your offense. You are sentenced to five imprisonment the penitentiary The convict's energy in defense had been utterly exhausted. He was led gway, a crushed and broken old man. For a year and a half—-until 1908, in fact—he served that heavy term in the penitentiary Then there came to the jail from the governor a full pardon, the acknowledg- ment of the great commonwealth which had imprisoned him unjustly that he was not Jim Riley, the professional crook for | whose crime he was paying the penalt but J.

So far from alone that m another American has paid as heavy a price for a resemblance | while all over the world the counterparts of famous personages have become such famfiiar nuisances that even royalty has the saying that a double doubles trouble. | A Close Call. Months after Mr. White was released | from his Pennsylvania’ prison, Captain | Kuhne of the detective bureau in Brooklyn. ! had his attention called to a photograph | of Jimmy Somers, an expert burglar of | New Rochelle. “Blamed If he ‘sn't a ringer for this Dave McGonigle,” he mused, “who did the job at Summerfield McLean's house, at 343 Ocean avenue. McGonigle had been a convict, too. Af- rested at his home after a burglary had been committed, he was identified by Miss Masten, Mrs. McLean's nfece, as the in- truder who bound and gagged her. McGonigle, protesting earnestly that he had reformed and was at home with his | mother at the time the crime took place, was on the ele of conviction, when Capt Kuhne discerned his likeness the burglar. For once, police tempered with intelligence; the ex-convict, | but now sincerely honest man, went free. Only a year earlier, Thomas Quinn, be- ing landed in the Tombs, in New York, for safe blowing, had the belated grace | to confess a crime for which his double, | James Courtney, was serving time at mira, while, in Maryland, Joseph Luery recelved a pardon from Governor Wartield atter four years' imprisonment out of the six to which he had been sentenced for the offense of h's counterpart.
