incidentals a remarkable one, in that each
should start for the same point from his dis
tant homo and arrive at about the same
time.

Counsel for Solomon Aultman has for
warded to the Governor an earnest letter
asking for paulon. The ease is very pecu
liar. AultmaiT was convicted in 1878 at
Edgefield of manslaughter. The jury rec
ommended him to mercy. Another man,
Richard Lundy, was convicted of the same
offense, but in a different case from Ault
man. Judge Aldrich, presiding, was under
the impression that a recent act of the As
sembly had changed the punishment of
manslaughter from a limited period (two to
thirty years) to imprisonment for life, so he
sentenced both of these convicts to impris
onment for life. They were committed to
the penitentiary, and’ after six years Mr.
Montieth secured Lundy’s pardon. A simi
lar application for Aultman was refused be
cause of an unfavorable recommendation
from Judge Aldrich. An appeal was then
taken trom the erroneous sentence, and
there was much discussion as to
whether the appeal was not too
late. Mr. Montieth convinced the
Supreme Court that there was then
no limit to the time of appeal in criminal
cases, and the Supreme Court held that the
conviction was regular, but the sentence
wrong and tho Corn t ordered Aultman to
be sent back to Edgefield to be legally sen
tenced, and h was taken back to "Edge
field, July, 1885, and re-sentenced by Judge
Kershaw. A letter lrom Judge Aldrich,
read by Solicitor Bonham, caused the new
sentence to lie fixed at twenty-three years,
and tha’ he Is now serving. Judge Kershaw
immediately wrote to Gov. Thompson
recommending pardon, and this was filed bv
Mr. Montieth, who removed to New York
to live, and during his absence this was re
fused. fin his’ret.'irn he has again taken up
the case and is pressing it earnestly.
Another petition is in circulation in Edge
field, whore it is said to bo (lie unanimous
opinion that a pardon should lie granted.
Aultman is said to be an invalid and unable
to earn his support in person, and his, wife
has removed with his children from the
Btate and married again.
BURNING THE DEAD.
Dr. Howe Delivers a Talk on Crema
tion at the Polytechnic Society.
, From the Louisville Courier-Journof.
Dr. Howe lectured Monday evening be
fore the Polytechnic Society on the sub
joct “Cremation.” In opening his lecture
he spoke of the fart that it wus a subject to
which but little thought had lieen given by
the public, but one which was nevertheless
worthy of most serious at tention, not only
from the fact that it is gradually gaining
ground, but. also because it is the only
reasonable method of disposing of the re
mains of the dead. It is a subject which at
once impels the opposition of almost every
body. but rapidly gains adherents as it be
comes studied.
The history of cremation was then traced.
With the exception of Egypt, where bodies
were embalmed, Judea and China, whore
they were buried, all the early nations
practiced cremation. It tell into disus-i in
the fourth century at Rome, and the subject
has lieen but little thought of until less than
twen'y years ago. when the Italians intro
duced the practice, and it has rapidly
spread over Europe aud in this country.
The first cremation in a cremation furnace
in this country was Dec. 6, 18Sfl. at VV axh
ingrton, I’a. in tbe Lemoyn* furnace.
The principal argument for cremation is
the hygienic one. Alter death the body be
gins to decompose, and in tiiis process pois
onous substanoor are evolved which con
taminate the soil, water ami air. I nder
ordinary circumstances this decomposition
is not onnplotcd for upwards of twenty
y ars, and us about 1.000,000 persona die
every year in this country, one can estimate
that, at the present time, some 20.b00.0P0
hoilies are in various stages of decom
position.
Evidence of the contamination of the air
is shown by tho unpleasant odors iu the
vicinity of graveyards. The water which
flows iiilo wells near cemeteries has often
caused much disease and epidemics, of
which numerous instances were cited by the
lecturer. That the soil is contaminated is
also shown by epidemics haviug frequently
broken out where graveyards have been
dug over, which not infrequently occurs
with the rapid growth of American cities.
Disease germs are buried with the body,
and when the soil is disturbed they are set
free to work their evil. Numerous such in
stances were also mentioned. For all this,
cremation offers a certain protection, the
body being in an hour or two converted
into its harmless elements, and all germs of
disease annihilated.
Another argument was on the score of
economy. In the large cities the cemeteries
must be so far from the centre that the cost
of a funeral becomes a great burden upon
the poor, and is constantly The
cost of cremation can 1> mailt; very insigni
ficant, in Itab it being less than ad illar,
while in this country it has only been about
$lO, but could be made very much cheaper.
Arguments have nl-u been urged in favor
of cremation that it would prevent all pos
sibility of grave desecration and all possi
bility of the horrors of burial alive which,
however. Dr. Howe said was of very infre
quent occurrence. A description of tbe
'•remation I rns a and the process was then
given, after which, the objections which
have been raised against cremation were re
viewed.
One of the principal objections has been
raised on religious ground, because it is a
heathen custom. But. burial is no less a
heathen cux oin, while in several instances,
Cremation was practiced bv the Jews, at
the direct command df Jehovah. The Earl
of Shaftesbury well asked i . the reply to
the objection that it would f ire badly at
resuiTectiori with those cremated, how it
would be with the holy martyrs who were
burned alive.
An bjection has been raised that the
gases from a crematory would be a great
nuisance in the vicinity, but all the later
furnaces have been So arranged that these
ga es arising from the body are completely
consume/}, so that noneof them come to the
air.' An objection has also been offered
that the dest ruction of the body would de
stroy all evidence of foul play, whereas the
necessary precaution which would lie taken
would be more apt to discover possible suspi
cious deaths: and, furthermore, these ob
jections apply equally well to embalming,
which can at once destroy all evidence of
poiso mg, as has been repeatedly shown in
the courts.
It is the aesthetic side of the question
which has really caused the greatest preju
dice against cremation, and yet the truth is
that one can sec the tomb* and shut out
from sight all that is unpleasant in the
burial, but it nevertheless exists. Fire has
always been considered the great purifier,
and there is nothing unpleasant in the
thought of the body of a loved one, nn hour
in the embrace of this great purifier and
then reduced to a handful of white ashes;
belter far thau molderiiig away in the cold
earth.
Ine lecturer then gave a description of
the services at iui ideal crematory, and
closed by saying: “Legislation should make
compul ory the cremation of ell bodies <1 ad
from cholera, yellow fever, small-pox, sear
let fever, diphtheria, consumption, and all
similar diseases. And furthermore, it is the
duty of all who see the necessity of crema
tion to use every endeavor to overcome the
prejudice at present so prevalent against
the only sanitary method of disposing of the
bodies of oar dead.”
GOV. WALLER’S SHORT HAIR.
Why it lies Never Been Short Before
in Something Like Twenty Years.
I'rom ihe. New York Sun.
A curious story has just leaked out to ex
plain the striking change in ex-Gov. Wal
ler’s appearance noticed by bis friends here
a few weeks ago. His hair was ciose
cropped for the first time in twenty years,
and bis magnificent occipital development
was seen and admired for the first time.
This is the story of why he wore his locks
long:
A score of years ago the Little Giant of
Connecticut was a gay young man about
New London, and ho and Gus Braudagee
and otbors of the boys used to go on little
Jags up to Hartford sometimes, on which
occasions they always had their hair cut
One day they agreed to put up a job on Tom
Waller. So when he came 'out of the bat
her's chair one after another of them
went up to him in an alarmed manner and
said:
"Waller, wliat in the world is the matter
with your hvad? It looks deformed.”
Pretty soou he began to think his head
was deformed —it was only highly devel
oped, in reality—and resolved to conceal his
misfortue by allowing his hair to grow. 8o
ever sinde his luxuriant locks have curled
down to his coat collar, and he became fa
me us as the curly-headed giant.
