COMMUTATION OF SENTENCE AND PAROLE Combination Schema Necessarr to A old the Intricacies of the I.utt All Mar He Done In Tvro Week. LINCOLN, April 13. (Special.) The ap plication for a commutation of the sen tences of Henry Bolln will recetvo the at tention of Governor Dietrich after he re turns from Montana. Attorney General Prout has been Investigating tho law on parolo and commutation of sentence nnd today ho sent a written opinion on tho sub Ject to tho governor's office. This opinion was prepared In response to four ques tions propounded by Governor Dietrich, all relating to tho meaning of tho law and upon which depends tho action that he wilt tako. Until the governor returns the at torney general's Interpretation will bo withheld from tho public. Although bo liaB made no public declara tion In this regard. It Is known here that Governor Dietrich hopes to find a way to release tho Omaha former city treasurer. He believes that Bolln has already paid hi penalty for bis crime and that for the benefit of his family he should bo given freedom. At first It was supposed that ho could bo released on parole, but an ex amlnatlon of tho statutes showed clearly that such a course could not bo pursued because of a provision which says that no prisoner shall be subject to parole until after he has served the minimum time provided by law for the crime for which he was convicted. The most likely plan will bo to commute tho third sentence of ten years and then Immediately release tho man on parole under the second sentence, the one he Is now serving. Such a plan however, Is surrounded by several legal difficulties and the governor will make no effort to carry It Into effect unless ho sees his way clear to do so. Notice of the application for tho com mutation of nolln'a scntonces has been ordered published Id an Omaha newspaper, and If the opinion of tho attorney general Is favorablo to tho proposed plan Bolln ft 77 99 BREAKS UP COLDS "77" for Grip Is only one of the thirty six varieties, aid li no better than Dr. Humphreys' Specific For Dyspepsia, Indigestion nnd Weak Stomach, For the Kidneys and Bladder, Kor Women and Children, For Malaria and Chills, For Diarrhea and Dyeentery, For Neuralgia und Headaches, For nbeuroatlsm and Lumbago, and for many other diseases. 25 cents, at all Drug StoreB, A pocket epitome of Domestlo Practice mailed for the asklag.

Poor Opinion of tho JLbit. FREMONT. Nob., April 13. (Special.) William Rbea was taken to tbo peni tentiary yesterday afternoon by Sheriff Kreader. Ho seemed anxious to leave and thanked Mrs. Kreader for her kindness to him, telling her that she had done all for him that she could. At tho depot ho talked a fow minutes as qulotly nnd with as llt tlo concern as though leaving on a short visit. Ho spoke rather bitterly of Jerome, who has been In town this week trying to tnaku arrangements for bis parole. , "Ho got fen years," be said, "a man who wasn't druuk and who deliberately went and got a gun, followed hlu man up stairs, shot htm five times In the back and is now enjoying bis freedom. It seems a little queer, don't It? This jury trial is a funny business. It I had shot a man five times In tho back I'd be out In olghtecn months and working for the Standard Cattle company for $1.25 a day. Now I'm to get tho ropo, and I shot a man bigger than I, and I was drunk, too, I know ono thing, though; if I hadn't been drunlc Herman Zahn would be alive today. They said I kicked the body of the dying man and said: 'I guess you ain't hurt much.' I did It, If at all, through fear that I killed him." Referring to tho testimony as to his being sober at the tlmo of tho shooting, ho said: "Thny had me hanging round tho saloons all tbo afternoon and only drinking two glasses of beer. When I get down to Lincoln I guess I'll start a Sunday school. A man that will stay In a saloon all after noon and only drink two glasses of beer will make a good avangellst." He was asked If Darrclt had anything to do with tho shooting, nnd answered very positively, "No, Blr and ho didn't hold tho team neither." On Darrcll's trial there was evi dence that a team drovo hastily from the snloon Just as tho shooting begnn and that as soon ns Darroll camo in Rhea raid: "Put up your hands, 1 don't trust you."
