The fresh air, sunshine and rain, has blossomed them forth as the hand of nature touches up the | flowers themselves.

He hns sem$ a letter to Mr. Meredith asking him to | act in his behalf on the Canadian | end of the case, but, of course, has as yet received no reply. It became known to-day. that . he | received a letter from the prison chaplain at London, Rev.

There is no question but that Riley was without knowledge of the reason | of his release when he was given bis | most unexpected liberation. -He as-| sumed that his friends in Canada had | been quietly working in his behalf and that their efforts had been responsible for the pardon. That is why he wrote back to Canada to thank his appreciation of an act that had not | been performed is exactly what | brought attention to the mistake and | what may land him back behind the | | bars.

'He is asked to state de- finitely if he will return without pro- test or if he intends to fight it out. | The first that was known here of the | | release of Riley or his arrival home | came when kngineer Charles Ball, of | the Frisco, came into Fort Scott and told his friends that he had seen Riley on the way down and had had a talk with. him about the case. Riley told all that he was quite in the dark as 80 the manner in which his releass was brought about.
