Pettit's Earnings.

"There has been a great amount ol senseless stuir published about W. F. Pettit since his incarceration in the penitentiary. One man has seen him weildiug a razor. Another asserts that he is much annoyed by the stares of the visitors to the prison. None of these statements are true. Mr. Pettit would naturally feel averse to being stared at by everyone passim through the prison but be is not subject to such annoyances. Warden French has considerately assigned him to work in a room that is rather obscure aud is not on the route taken by those who pass through the prison, and not one visitor in 1,000 catches even a gliuipe of him.

He can do double the amount of work assigned him and earns some money by doing «o. The value of bis extra time last month was $10.80. He speaks in cordial tones of his treatment and.bas a kind word for ali. He is confident lie will receive a new trial. In reference to the proposition of some of the jurors who passed sentence on him to hold a reunion, he said lie thought some of them had too much sense !o do so while some of them might."—Lafayette Joiunal.
