ADA HUMES PARDONED Ada Humes, the woman who killed Jack Brown, a gambler, in Silver City, about two years ago, for supposed infidelity, and was tried, found guilty of manslaughter and sen- tenced to three years in the New Mexico terri- torial penitentiary, was pardoned a few days ago by Governor Prince. The woman was a loose character. It is said one of the excuses for her pardon was her deplorable physical con- dition. From a party in this city the reporter learned yesterday that he received a telegram from the woman when she was freed that her avoirdupois reached the 178-pound mark. Not a very sickly woman, eh? โ€” El Paso Tribune.
