Johnson, sixty-five, who served ten years in prison for a crime it now generally is believed he did not commit. Although Johnson confessed in 1911 to the murder of seven-year-old Annie Lemberger, he repudiated his confes- sion just before he entered the gates of Waupun prison, In 1922 he was pardoned by Gov. E. L. Philipp, who had been con- vinced the man confessed because of a morbid fear of mob violence There are more than 3,000 Madi- son citizens who now are certain so- ciety “robbed” Johnson of ten work- ing years of his life and who have signed petitions asking the legislature to compensate him, as far as possible, for that which was taken.

He still works, but his earning power is small and he and the wife who trusted him during his years of imprisonment are not enjoy- ing the comforts they might have had.

Despite the fact that Mrs. Johnson and two daughters, Stella and Bertha, testified that Johnson had gone to bed about nine o'clock the night of the murder and never left the house dur- ing the night, the man’s plea of guilty was accepted and he was sentenced to Waupun for life. Sweeping of Jewelry Shop Floor Yields Gold Cincinnati, Ohio.—An effort will be made to recover several hundred and probably thousands of dollars’ worth of gold and other precious metals be- lieved to have accumulated under a floor of a jewelry manufacturing firm here during rhe last quarter century. The firm will move into a new loca- tion soon and officials are going to make sure they remove all their be- longings, even to the tiny bits of metals in floor cracks and other in- conspicuous parts of the shop. Employees wash their hands in a sink that has no outlet and about $1,000 worth of precious metals is re- covered t way each year. Sweep- ings from the floor yield about $200 worth a month.
