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

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."

NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA.
A CURE FOR IT.
Not a 1'ateut Cure-all, nor a Modern
Miracle, but (limply a national Cure
lor Uyapepala.
In theoo days of humbuggery and decep
tion, the manufacturers of pateut medicines,
as a rule, seem to think tbelr medicines
will not sell unless they claim that It will
euro every dtseaso under tbo sun. And thoy
never tninK ot leaving out dyspepsia aud
stomach troubles. They arc sure to claim
that their nostrum is absolutely certain to
euro every dyspeptic and ho need look no
further.
In tho face of theso absurd claims It la
refreshing to notu that the proprlotors of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets havo carefully
refrained from making any undue claims or
falao representations regarding tho merits
of this most excellent remedy for dyspepsia
and stomach troubles. They make but one
claim for It, and that Is, that for Indiges
tion and various stomach troubles Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets is a radical cure. Thoy
go no farther than this and any man or
woman suffering from Indigestion, cbronlo
or nervous dyspopslu, who will glvo tho
remedy a trial will find that nothing la
claimed for It, that the facta will not fully
sustain.
It Is a modern discovery, composed ot
harmless vegetable Ingredients acueptablu
to tho weakest or moat delicate stomach.
Its great success In curing stomach trou
bles Is duo to tbo fact that the medical
properties aro such that It will digest
whatever wbolosomo food Is taken Into tho
stomach, no matter whothcr the stomach
Is In good working order or not. It rcata
the overworked organ and replenishes tho
body, tho blood, the nerves, creating a
healthy appetite, gives refreshing sleep and
tho blesulngs which always accompany a
good digestion and proper assimilation of
food.
In using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets no
dieting Is required. Simply cut plenty ot
wholesome food and tuku these Tablets at
each meal, thus assisting and resting tha
stomach which rapidly regains 1 tu proper
dlgeatlvo power, when tho Tablets will bo
no longer required.
Nervous Dyspepsia is simply iv condition
In which somo portion ot portions of tho
nervous system aro not properly nourished.
