CAPITAL PUNISHMENT IN PRUssIA.-At Bran
dcnburg, in Prussia, o short time ago mar
ricd couple named Voigt, work-pcople con-
domned to death for poisoning an old man
name Schade in order to rob him, were exc
cutcd. AS usual in Prussia, the execution
took place in the interior of the prison, in
presence only of the public prosecutor, two
surgeons, clergyman, and twelve citizens
chosen by lot. The woman tainted on being
told that her last hour had arrived, and all
attempts TO restore her to consciousness hav-
ing failed, she was bcheaded in state of in
sensbility. The husband walked calmly to
the scaHod repeating prayer. The heads
of both were struck off by an executioner,
After the execution placards were stuck up
over the town announcing that it had taken
place. For twenty-three years there had
been no execution in the town.
