IL il Not BOYD,

The Philapelphia 'Ledger' of this
morning, says it has now been deter
mined that the body of the man found
in the Delaware river, near the old
navy yard wharf recently, and who had
evidently been foully murdered, was
not that of John Boyd, of Wilmington
Del, as was at first suppcs sed, and the
authorities have no clue as to who the
murdered man was. Nothing could b.
learned as to the identity or whereabouts
OF the man Vance, who said that John
Boyd had left Wilmington about three
weeks since and was not seen after.
wards, and that the body of the deceased
bore a resemblance to him.
Chief of Police Maxwell, of Wilming
ton, was in the city on Saturday ana
gave information that he could find nc
such man. On Sunday evening Deputy
Coroner John Beam received two tele-
grams from the Rev. e. Huntingdon, OF
Dover, Del. One Of them asked if the
body found was that Of Boyd, and the
other said, care arms tattOoed is one
finger MANNED : Describe parts. An,
swer. Hold body. Coming tomorrow.
Mr.. Huntingdon did not come, but as
there are no such marks on the body as
described in the telegram, it settles the
question as to whether the murdered
man was John Boyd.

Hanged On Saturday

Richards, the bloody butcher Of nine
people, met his we'll deserved fate at
Mindsn, Kearney county, Nebraska, at
seventeen minutes after one O'Clock on
Saturday. A crowd of $4,000 people
assembled to witness the execution, al
though the law provides that it shall be
private. A pen sixteen feet square, had
been erected OH the public square. 1t
was built of light lumber, and the crowd
tore this down and thus exposed the
scatfold to view. Sheriff Kern remon-
sirated after it was done, but the impa-
tient crowd told him that he had done
his who's duty, and that he was not re-
sponsible for what they chose to do.
A few minutes before one o'cloch Rich
ards, in charge of the sheriff and his
deputy, and accompanied by his spirit
ual adviser. appeared and assembled the
scaileld, Richards mounting the stair
way with a firm step and every indica-
ton of self possession. He at once took
his place upon the trap, facing toward
the vast assemblage. When the death
otHltHtS was itdt w hiEf thV Nhiy h'
ticeable sign about Richards was trcm
ulous movement of his lips and fingers.
After the reading of the death war
rant he began, in slow, measured tone,
to speak, and he said he was about to
die for crime of which he was wrong
fully convicted. He said his killing OF
Anderson was in self defense. He said
nothing of the butchery ofthe Harrison
family, which was one Of the most hel-
nous kind.
He said ae had faith in Christ aud as
going to heaven. After prayer by his
spiritual adviser the latter said Richards
wanted the crowd TO sing.
Come Thou Fount OF every blessing"
with them, and two verses of the hymn
were sung, he joining the singing.
Then he comeDced speaking in trem-
bling tone while being pinioned, and
kept at it even after the black cap was
pulled over his face.
AT seventeen minutes after one the
lever was sprung, the guilty man fell
six feet. His neck was broken and he
died in fifteen minutes. The crowd
was orderly with the exception of tear
ing down the fence which had been
built 70 render the execution private in
compliance with the law.

the jury rendered verdict of death
from heart disease in accordance with

An Unfortunate Blow,

In Thursdays REPUBLICAN mention
was made of an accident to boy named
Henry Cannon, *hile playing ball al
Eighth and Lombard streets, by which
the lads arm was broken. Upon Ger
tain information we learn that the oc.
currence was not accidental but inten.
tional. 1t seems that little 10y rel.
ative of man named Henry Smith
came upon the ground where the boys
were playing, having in his possession
a base ball bat. The boys taking the
bat, the little fellow went home crying.
Soon after Henry Smith came upon
the ground, and some few words passed
between Cannon and Mr.. Smith, which
resulted in Smiths striking Cannon
with the bat. The arm was broken by
the blow, and DR.. Maull was called in
and united the fracture. Cannon's rel
atives have brought the matter before
his Honor, and it is probable that the
case will come up this evening.
