F1eeutisa Of rhona. Connor.

The execution of this young man for
the murder of Captain Hutchinson, of
Virginia, took place il. Baltimore on
Friday last, attended by occurrences
almost too horrible to relate. We take
the following from the Baltimore An,eri-
can:
"The convict was accompanied upon
the platform by the clergy and few
officials; at FIVE minutes to twelve, he
expressed himself prepared, and was
left standing alone upon the drop. The
Sheriff was about to pull the rope,
when cry of "capl capP was heard
from the outside, and the deputy re-
turned and adjusted the cap over the
features of the prisoner. The drop
fell, and the rope broke, eliciting a
loud shout expressive of horror from
the spectators. Connor fell from a
height of eighteen feet, alighting on his
knees, and then falling forward so as
slightly to bruise his face, which was
somewhat Suffused with blood. His
neck was almost uninjured. After a
few moments he partially recovered
from the stunning effects of his fall,
and his first words were-'I am inno-
cent of murder in the first degree.
He then began to pray in muttering
tone, but on the application of cold
water as a restorative, soon changed to
a firm voice, in which he continued with
much volubility to pour forth prayers
for himself and mother; asseverations of
his innocence of the degree of crime
for which he was suffering, and finally.
under an access of evident hysterical
excitement, repeated entreaties, accom-
panied by tears and sobs, to be imme-
diately executed, affirming constantly
that he had seen his Savior and the
angels of heaven, that he had been told
that his mother should soon meet him
there, that he would not live in the
world, DC, &c.
An express was Immediately sent to
the Governor informing him of the fact,
but he had left the city. In about half
an hour, the prisoner again assembled
the scaffold with apparent pleasure, and
in a few moments was launched into

How TO DRY PEAcHEs.-Take those
of the best quality, just as they are ripe
enough to eat, halye them, remove the
stones, and sprinkle over them, in the
hollow from which the pit was taken,
little nice sugar, dry them in brick
oven af.er the bread DC, is withdrawn.
They are far better than if dried in
the sun, retaining their aroma and
flavor, and besides are totally free from
insects. Prepared in this way, from
peaches fully ripe, they need no cooking,
but are simply soaked in cold water
All the sugar they require (ranging of
course with the variety is added while
drying. Peaches thus dried and pre-
pared, are only inferior to the fresh
fruit, of which they retain the favor in
a remarkable degree. If you prefer
take them not so ripe, and peel the fruit,
but the flavor is not so good as when
fully ripe, and is dissipated more in the
rocess Of drying. Es

makes the eye sparkle with the clear
light of affection.
"Be polite to your children. Doyou

To bound away to do your pleasure

Missouri RIvER.-This river has been
helping itself to new junction with the
Mississippi, as will be seen from the fol-
lowing paragraph we take from the Re-
publican of the 30th, received last even
ing;
We are told that the Missouri river is
cutting one of the capers for which it is
somewhat notorious. 1t has changed its
mouth, or entrance into the Mississippi,
good many times within the last twen-
ty years, and now is trying it again.
Last Saturday it succeeded in cutting a
channel across the point of land half a
mile above where it has run of late
years, and strikes the Mississippi in a
direction which is likely to prevent the
washing of the Illinois or eastern shore
to any injurious extent. Since Saturday
two boats have passed up the new chute,
and this may now be regarded as the
main channel of the Missouri.

N-The following is California sto-

found in that paper. 1t says:
A capital story is told of two residents
of Contra Costa county, one of whom,
by the way, is relative of Zachary
Taylor. The two gentlemen alluded to
went out once to practice with their ri
fies. Taylor. who is dead shot, offered
to make bet that he could hit potato
at forty PAGES a la William Tell, the po-
tato to be placed on his friends head.
The bet was accepted. They took their
positions, and the riheman carefully
drew a bead on the potato. Just as he
got the object spotted, his friend (who
had his eyes fixed upon the weapon)
cried out-"not quite so low-not quite
so low" At the moment crack went
the rifle, and the potato wss cleft in
twain. The target however was right;
the aim was "leetle" too low, the bull
let just grazed the head.

The EPIDEMIC IN New ORLEANS
The New Orleans Bulletin gives the
following statement of the mortality in
that city. for the thirteen weeks ending
with August Goth: yellow fever 5,257,
other diseases l 1898, total 7,249.
The Bee, of the Esd, says:
Until recently the scourge had scarce
ly invaded the commercial classes of
our population, but within the last week
its sweep has been far more extensive.
The obituary notices which appear in
the different papers show how many of
the better classes have fallen victims.
The distemper seems to have searched
out every unacclimated person. None,
who have never had the fever, are now
in safety, no matter how prolonged their
residence may have been. We have
heard of fatal cases among persons who
had lived ten, twelve, and fifteen years
in New Orleans, and who, having passed
unscathed through several visitations,
fondly imagined themselves secure from
an attack. This fancied immunity has
proved fallacious.

G-Last week, number of married women
at Fairfield, Ohio, went to the cellar Of a
retailer Of spirituous liquor, turned the fau-
Gets on the kegs and vessels, and let the
contents run out. The retailer had been sell
ling liquor to their husbands against the re-
mOnstrance of the wives. Some half dozen Of
the women were arrested, taken to Norwalk,
the county seat, and arraigned before magis-
trate charged with raising riot. The Exper-
iment says:
The fair prisoners were escorted into
town by large number of ladies and
gentlemen from Fairfield, and were re-
ceiyed at the Hall of the Sons of Tenn
perance here by crowd of NOrwalk Ia
dies in waiting. The examination took
place in thecourt-house, which was filed
to the brim with eager spectators. Not
being present, we can only speak of the
result, which was triumphant aequittal,
without the argument of counsel. The
fair prisoners were, in every sense Of the
word, the ''lions" Of the day-"the OBJ
served Of all observers" They were
toasted and feasted with a free dinner at
the Mansion House, and showered with
bouquets by our town ladies, and at eve
ming serenaded by the brass band. All
in all, it was scene rarely witnessed by
our usually quiet town. On the an.
nouncement of acquittal by the court, a
shout went up that shook the walls ofthe
courthouse to its very foundation.
