A Black Serving Thirty-Two Years for Chicken Thefts Will Gain Freedom. "Juneteenth" will probably bring freedom to forty or more negro convicts who are serving terms of varied length the Texas penitentiaries, if the recommendations of the Board of Pardons are accepted by Governor Colquitt. Twenty-five of the cases which will in all likelihood be recommended to the Governor for conditional pardons have already been considered and covered in reports.

The complete list will be finished in athple time to give the negroes their freedom by Emancipation Day. Among the pardon cases before the board was that of a negro serving a thirty-two-year sentence for chicken theft. He was convicted of sixteen separate offenses and given the minimum sentence of two years for each offense. The negro has served seventeen years of the sentence. RESERVE AGENTS APPROVED.

Leopold Morris of Victoria, candidate for Governor, arrived in Austin last night from Waco where dressed the State Democratic Executive Committee and urged that nothing concerning the prohibition issue be placed on the ballot in the July election. a landslide for Morris," said he when met at the train last night. "I did not know how things stood until I went to the people. I have made a tour of all North Texas and will carry that country.

solid." Mr. Morris stated that the point in his address to the executive committee was urging the repeal or modification of the Allison liquor law. which prevents the shipment of liquor: into dry territories, but permits one to go to the wet territory and buy it in person. Mr. Morris claimed that this practice hurt the dry districts, as the buyers seldom bought only 'liquor on their trips wet towns, but other things as well." In regard to the amount of liquor sold before and after the passage of this law.

Mr. Morris said: "The difference is simply the difference between the little brown jug and the big brown suit Predicts "Dry" Victory. Mr. Morris expressed the opinion that under normal conditions Texas would go. "wet" by a large majority, but that if the issue was submitted at the present time, the State would go dry.

because the antis in the dry districts are seeing their trade going to the large cities that are wet, and they will vote their own welfare regardless of their, sentiments on the liquor question. "It is rumored around said Mr. Morris, "that I am in this race to assist in the electon of Mr. Ferguson. Please say for me that I am in this race to elect Leopold Morris and nobody else.

"I am attacking Mr. Ferguson on his public record as severely as I am Ball. In fact, I have had my own candidacy attacked more severely by Ferguson's forces than by Ball's." "Unless something unforeseen happens," said Mr. Morris, "I expect to call only one special session of the Legislature if I am elected Governor, and that will be devoted to the advancement and adequate provision for our institutions of higher education."

Chile was under the control of a three-headed junta in 1891 and since that date the country has been peaceful and prosperous. The chief difference between the junta proposed at the Falls and Chile's commission was in inode of appointment. It was proposed by. the present mediators that the two warring factions in Mexico each appoint a member of the junta and the A.

The Chilean troubles started in a quarrel between J. M. Balmeceda, President of Chili, and a majority in the Congress. The latter objected to the President's using his influence in favor of a certain candidate for the Presidency. Six Chilean warships revolted and many of the Congress leaders went aboard, them.

Thea revolutionary north seized Iquique. The army supported the President and severe battles were fought, the rebels being victorious. The "Junta de Gobierno" was then established. Swiftly Reinaugurated. The revolutionary army.

marched southward, Balmeceda, resigned the junta established headquarters in Sanitago and order was swiftly reinaugurated. The career of Dr. Aureliano Urrutia, a pure blooded Indian and proud of it, is in many respects as worthy of study as that of General Huerta. Huerta and Urrutia gave the lie to those who see the Mexican aborigine only dumb. creatures of no possibilities.

Urrutia, the leading surgeon in Mexico, was born in Xochimilco, a tiny Indian village in the suburbs of the capital. As a boy he peddled baskets in the streets of Mexico City. His parents were extremely poor. In that wondrous land of plenty few starve and some how or other Aureliano attended grammar school in Xochimilco. He didn't get very far Then General Diaz established public schools in Mexico, City and young Urrutia was the first Mexican boys to avail himself of this.

reputation spread, for he was a man of great personality, iron will and vast intellect. He became known as Latin America's greatest surgeon. He is also one of the wealthiest men in Mexico When CHierta came back after defeating Orozco for Madero, he was without command, ill, penniless, friendless and suffering from a cataract which made him nearly blind. Dr. Urrutia took the soldier to his sanitarium at Tlalpam and cut off the cataract successfully: They became close friends.

When Huerta took the supreme power Dr. Urrutia received the portfolio of the Interior. He proved strongly a A and often declared in favor of war with the United States. He advised the scalpel for Mexico's troubles. Only strong measures would do, he said.

Most Atrocious Cruelties. He became known for the most atrocious cruelties, whether mighty or no. According to enemies his surgeon training or his Indian nature steeled him to all pity. At the time the Senator Dominguez and Senator Bordes Mangel disappeared it was charged that Urrutia had ordered them shot to death. He was commonly known as "The Black Death." But he made a mistake when he arrested in his bed at midnight Senator Manuel Calero, of the Mexican Senate, and the Foreign Relations Committee, of most prominent lawyers and politicians in Mexico.

Twice Dr. Urrutia had Calero arrested, thus violating the Constitution giving members of Congress immunity. Senor Calero schemed successfully to achieve the surgeon's downfall and in September General Huerta asked his friend to resign from the Cabinet. Urrutia's influence grew less and less. He was forced to flee in the disguise of a common laborer to Vera Cruz, seeking the protection of the soldiers of the Nation which above all others he despised and later coming to this country he hated a refugee.

Congress is showing actually murderous traits in its treatment of the army and navy aviators. Its niggardly policy is killing off brave officers at an alarming rate. Experts say the mortality is due entirely to forcing LOOK FOR OUR SPECIAL SALE OF DURHAM DUPLEX RAZORS Van Smith Drug Co. fair scouts to fly in out-of-date and defective aeroplanes.

There were hundred civilians flying to one officer. Many of the civilians tried crazy, stunts, freak flying, tangoing the air and even loops and upsidedown flying. The army officers are not going out for fancy flying but tor straight tests of speed and altitude.

The army officers do not get Into the air service unless they have a special talent for mechanics and are well trained. Many of the civilian flyers are wild eyed youths of little teaching. Yet it seems the army men have about forty. chances of death to one for a civilian. FINDS PERMANENT ELECTRIC CURRENT I NEW YORK, June F.

Kammerlingh Ounes of Leyden University, who received the Nobel prize in physics last year, has demonstrated the maintenance of a permanent electric current with no potential force to drive it. in a coil of wire in which the power of electrical resistance in metal has been reduced to nil, according to a report from Holland. The reports have created intense interest among scientists, for the discovery suggests to the electrical world the possibilities of perpetual motion or mechanical friction reduced to zero would mean in other fields. The commercial possibilities of the discovery can not be considered as yet, because of the large expense involved in reducing metal coils to a point of zero resistance.

STATE COURTS MUST DECIDE FACE VALUE OF INSURANCE POLICY WASHINGTON, June the paid- -up value of an insurance policy shall be determined according to the statutes of the States where the contract is made, but that this shall abridge the right of free contract in other States was in erfect decision of the Supreme Court of the United States today. The question was raised in a case appealed to the court from the Supreme Court of Missouri by the New York Life Insurance Company. The company claimed, that on a policy drawn by Richard G. Head of New Mexico, the contract being made in Kansas City, it owed the beneficiaries $89.

The courts of Missouri held that under the laws of that State the company was liable for $7478. Ocean Voyager: Don't the passengers make you tired with the questions they ask?
