A CENTURY OF NEW YORK.

At the New York Historical Society's
recent meeting, John A. Stephens read a
paper on New York from 1776 to 1875.
which is thus condensed
Before the occupation of the city by the
British. who saw that it was the best
point to select as their depot for arms and
supplies, merchants and business men
did very fair business. The moment
the army came he.e, the merchants were
supplanted BY hucksters and suffers, the
buildings became tenantless, and trade
disarranged. Then came in quick sue
cession. two disastrous fires, In one of
which 493 buildings were burned, and in
the other, which occurred I778, 43 houses
were consumed. The lecturer traced the
boundary line of the city in 1915, de-.

had also a directory of the residences of
citizens. In this directory were 957

A WOMAN ASKING TO BE HANGED.

On Saturday morning writ of habeas
corpus was granted by Judge Bingham
of the Common Pleas Court Of Columbus.
ONO, commanding that the body of Sarah
VI. victor, an inmate of the penitentiary,
be produced before the Court. 1t was
returnable ut once, but on account of the
failure OF the petitioner 8 counsel to serve
notice on the Attorney General the return
of the writ was extended until FRIDAY
next at o'clock.
lhere are some curious facts connected
with this case. Over seven years ago
Sarah NJ. Victor was convicted at Cleve-
land OF murder in the first degree and
sentenced to be hanged. Before the day
OF execution arrived. however, the priso-
ner became insane, and upon being sat
ned OF this fact the Governor ordered
ner sentence commuted to solitary con-
hnement for life in the penitentiary. A
simple certificate was therefore made out
from the Court in which she was tried
consigning her to Imprisonment for life.
Now, after this long lapse of time,
comes petitioner claiming that the
warden of the penitentiary has not the
proper papers or authority upon which TO
hold this prisoner 1t is claimed that in
committing this sentence to imprison-
ment tor life the Governor should have
prepared, under his hand and the seal of
the State. papers to that effect, and before
being carried into execution the same
should have been submitted to the pris-
oner to allow her to accept Imprisonment
for life IN preference to hanging.
She now desires TO be hanged and
hence these proceedings have been insti-
tuted to declare null and void the certi-
ficate under which she was entered at the
penitentiary. The condemned woman is
now afflicted with paralysis and. unless
she improves before Friday, she will have
to be carried to the Courtroom. -Cinci,l-

The Virginia Chronicle of the 18th IN
slant states that on Friday last some
thieves entered the cabin of Tom Daley
= special policeman, while he was on
duty, and stole therefrom 1920. Tom
must have lost the composition" off
his safe. Several years ago Daley lived
IN white Pine, and one time possessed
considerable money, the bulk Of which
ne kept in Jack Perry's safe. One even
ing friend of Tom 5 rushed np to him.
and IN terrible hurry asked for the loan
OF hundred dollars. Tom didn't want
to refuse the man ; neither did be want
to make the loan ; so he replied, look
of extreme regret coming over his conn
tenance: Upon my sowl I'd let We have
it wild pleasure bnt Jack Perry has lost
the composition off the safe, and we
can't open it, We suppose Daley meant
the " combination" of the safe.
