THE RICHARDSON SCANDAL

The fire OF comments explanations, etc, in
regard to the Richardson scandal receives
fresh fuel every day. Beecher's last apology
Is that he attended the wedding at the request
Of Horace Greedy, and that he simply acted
us a magistrate, not in the mi-orthodox
fashion OF magistrate and minister merged
INTO one office. If he'd only known the cir
cumstances, he says,'I would sooner have
cut off my right hand q. hundred times than
have performed the ceremony Mr. Beech
ers statements, so far as they relate to Mr.
Greedy are denied by the latter. He saws
that he simply introduced Mrs Calhoun to
Mr. Becchcr, with the announcement that she
would explain her business. Mr. Greeley
lrles to explain the story about Mrs McFar-
land and Richardson at Sinclar's, by stating
that Richardson was wounded and feeble at
the time. HAL the testimony was published
says Mr. Greeley, THE Sinclairs would be ali
right; but, no; they must garble it to suit
their Id petty malice. No; the Sinclairs
and all the rest of us must be identified with
this tree-love crowd. BY Cd bringing
his venerable fist upon the desk). there's no
such crowd, at least not around the Tribune
Office" He says the marriage was perform
ed so that Richardson's children might have
a parent to protect them. Mr. Greedy thinks
the case will 90 against Mcfarland. The
latter called on him one day previous to the
first shooting, and said distinctly, MIR Gree
ley, don't care about the woman; don't
want to get her back again. | wouldn't take
her back. | do not want to live with her
again but that man has treated me badly -
orsomc wordsmeaningth the same thing. Gree
ley says 'hc run his fingers through his hair,
listened to him and tried to comfort him and
then the villain-thc dirty, deliberate, id
villian-shot this Richardson, and then he
called on me again, and told him would't
have any more to do with him." The New
York Observer would not have believed that
there is Christian pastor on the earth, who
would employ the offices of religion and the
words OF prayer to crown with bcnedctions

CURE OF CANCER.

BY special request, we insert the following
communication in relation to the cure Of can
Ger, one of those fearful and life consuming
sores, hitherto regarded as incurable The
parties arc we'll known in this vicinity, and
there can be no doubt Of the facts related.
Mrs. James Griffin of Stockton, Maine. was great
sufferer from fearful eating ulcer which was con-
suming her right leg at the ankle, from which she
suffered the most eNcruciating lancinatng pains.
After trying number of our best Physicians with
out avail, she at last came to me and commenced
using my medicines with but little benefit After
treating her for over four months, Mollities AS
SUM Cor softenng of the bone) having taken place
| informed her that her was incurabe and
that the treatment would be merely palliative for
the Disease is considered incurabe by the best
Physicians. | then informed her that | was using
the New York University Medicines in my Practice
and with great deal of doubt She at last consented
to try these new remedies. In six weeks after
using the Compound Fluid Extract of Cancer Plant
the ulcer was completely healed, she having used but
two bottles of Cancer Plant, and two packages of
Chemical Ointment.
This Ulcer has been of over Thirty four years
standing. Mr.. and Mrs. James Griffin will be pleased
to all questions concerning this case for the
benefit of those similarly afflicted

EXECUTIONS.

brace OF murdererS was executed in
Pennsylvania on the 9TH. John Fields, who
murdered his brother-in-law, was desperate
villain. He has made several attempts to es-
cape from confinement, and three severaltimes
had tried to commit suicide His execution
took place at Wiliamspon. He spent almost
the entire night in walking his cell and pray
ing. Drs. Paret and Steck, Episcopalian min
istcrs were with him and conducted the relio-
lous exercises up to five minutes to twelve
o'clock When the Sheriff entered the cell
and informed him that he was ready to execute
the law, Fields expressed his readiness to
follow him. He was cool, calm and collect
ed. AT one O'Clock, the procession started for
the scaffold. AT four minutes past one the
scatfold was reached and assembled. The cr-
mnal was seated, and the death warrant was
read to him by the Sheriff. His spiritual ad-
viSers then resumed the exercises He occa-
sionally responded. When the word amen
was pronounced, the Sheriff touched the drop
and Fields was ushered into eternity at eight
minutes past one. Fields never struggled or
moved muscle, his neck being broken by
the fall Il. Il. Hockinberry was executed al
Butler, for the murder of Annie McCandish
He confessed to having fired the fatal shot
but said that he only meant to disfigure the
face of his victim SO she wouldn't get married.
He slept soundly until three o'clock in the
morning, when he awoke and rose from his
bed and paced up and down the cell, his
hands behind his back, evidently deep in med
itation, and seeming for the first time impress
ed with a sense of the awful doom that await
ed him. After some time spent in this way,
he sat down and wrote several short letters to
the relations of the girl he murdered Hook
inberry then retired and slept until awakened
by Sheriff Thompson, who informed him that
Rev. Charles Moran was waiting to be adj
mtted. He arose, dressed himself with scrup-
ulous care, and upon the entrance of the min
lister, received him affectionately, remarking
that he was well aware how near death was
The two engaged in prayer for some time,
the doomed man appearing in excellent spirits
and prepared to meet the dreadful fate that
awaited him. Hockinberry ate breakfast spar
ingly. After taking it, several persons.
among whom were Assistant District Attor
ney Riddle and his counsel, with several
friends, were allowed to converse a short
time with him and bid final adieu. AT
eleven o'clock the sheriff announced that
everything was in readiness. The hands of
Hockinberry were then bound, and he was
conducted to the scaffold. A brief prayer was
offered up, after the rope was affixed to his
neck. He seemed for an instant to falter, but
quickly recovered his composure The sig
nal was given, and the spirit of the murderer
faced that o f the murdered in the presence of
God.

ABOUT Coal. A correspondent Of the
Gardiner Reporter, Undoubtedly Rev Mr.
Bailey,) writing from Reading Pa. gives the
following hints about coal
Coal of course is cheap compared with
what it is in the Maine cities. 1t costs us
at our doors less than half the price you are
Obliged to pay for it. Besides, we get a
much better article Since coming here I
have learned that Maine people do not know
how to buy coal The first coal ever bought
was in Gardiner, in the fall of 1860. 1t was
part Of q company cargo" and came at the
low price of $3.50 l think it was rcd-ash
coal, burning we'll but rather too freely. No
other coal that tried to burn in your city,
after that year, was suitable for parlor fuel.
1t was exceedingly filthy in appearance, and
composed largely of shale OF slate. In Bel
fast, did better. The coal was cleaner of
dirt, and clearer Of slaty substances. But
even there the coal was too coarse, and did
much poorer service than it would had it
been finer. People here who know how to
buy coal, usually get whitc-ash nut coal wei!
screened from dirt. After using it a month, |
wonder how any one can be contcnted to try
to build and keep fires with the coarse Jumps
often so poor in quality and mixed with so
much dirt, as is usually done in the State of
Maine. Good, clean, whitcash nut coal is
a luxury have learned to appreciate. 1t
would be hard to burn any other now
The latest phase of the Richardson shooting af-
fair mixes up Vice President ColtaX with it. He
was well acquainted with Mrs. Mcfarland, who
stopped at his mothers house in Indiana while pro-
curing her divorce. Schuyler is Il sly dog.

THE COAL QUESTION.
The Prog. Age, in commenting upon OIL
article on reciprocity, saws

The Prog. Age, in commenting upon our
article on reciprocity, says
But it says we particularly need the cheap coal of
Nova Scotia, and that are paying double the
plice which fuel would cost. This latter state
ment is not true nor is it true that need the
coal OF NoVaScola any more than we needthe cotton
Of India. We have millions of acres of the same
at home. As to paying double price; Nova Scotia
coal would cost i'll this city free of duty about $3.50
while good anthracite coal was delivered here both
this year and last, previous to the strikes, for about
81; and two tons of anthracite are equal to three
tons Of Nova Scotia for fuel.
An intelligent shipmaster who has been
engaged in the Sydney coal trade, informs
us that it is sold for five English shillings
per ton delivered on board, or Sc in cur
rency, and that freights are now S3.5O-mak-
its cost here S4.06 per ton. We bought here
last August fourteen tons of anthracite al
1911. which is more than double The
article Fuel, in Appleton's Cyclopedia, states
the heating power Of Lehigh and Sydney
coal to be as 835 Is to 747, which is not one
third greater, by considerable The fact re-
mains, as we have stated that we are paying
fifty per cent. Of the cost of our fuel to higl
tariff monopolists.
Even Mr.. Blaine has been brought to see
this, and, while the Age is blunderngly ~.
guing against free coal, in his supposed in
terest he is himself moving to abolish the
duty. We cut the following item of Wash
ington news from radical paper
The Washington correspondent of the Boston
journal says the House Committee on ways ant
means has not yet arrived at any conclusion about
repeating the duty on Nova Scotia coal, which bid,
fair to be much discussed The writer adds:
''Mr. Speaker Blaine is among the most carnes
advocates of the repeal. and his large coal interes
in Pennsylvania gives his opinion especial weigh
with those who have generally upheld the duty
Three years ago, when the Reciprocity Treaty wa.
terminated, Mr. Blaine made vigorous but unsuc
cesstul effort to have coal put upon the free list
The movement with which he is now prominentl,
Identified will. it is believed be more Fortunate
Let the readers of the Age be prepared to
see the back down rs soon as it gets q scent
of Blaine's new movement. Is now placed in
a queer predcament, declaring that we don't
need Nova Scotia coal, Just as the gentleman
it assumes to defend is moving to admit il
