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.
