SENTENCED TO DEATH.
How Adam thompson Took it-stiii
Wants to Live.

Yesterday afternoon at O'Clock special
Judge Sawnie Robertson, who presided at
the trial. passed the sentence of death upon
Adam Thompson, co.ored convicted OF BE-
ing one of the murderers of old man Shu-
maker, a German, in 1876. Wesly Pollard
colored, who was jointly indicted with HIM
died some time ago in Jail of consumption.
The facts of tho murder are still fresh in the
minds of the renders of the HERALD. The
two murderers went to the house of Shu-
maker, who ran y little store several miles
west of the cit. and murdered him
for his money. THAR guilt was es-
tablished b-yond a d'nOt with the
result as abo, stated. A nuLnber Of persons
congregated IN the court.roo to witness
scene; but there was not much of a scene en-
acted. The prisoner was brought in by the
sheriff. He was the very picture of indif-
ference, and failed to exhibit tho least I'M
easiness. Judge Robertson pronounced the
sentenced as follows:
Adam Thompson, on the goth of July,
1876 the grand jury of Dallas county pre-
sented to the district court an Indictment
charging you and Yves. Pollard jointly of
murder You were convicted of murder in
the first degree with the death
penalty, and your case was appealed
and the Judgment reversed. A new trial
was granted. You have mad able and dis,
tinguished counsel, but you were convicted OF
murder in the first degree. Your attorneys
took your case to the supreme court and that
court affirmed the judgment, finding you
guilty of u urder, and it now becomes my
duty to pass sentence q death on you. Have
you any reasons TO give why such sentence
should not be passeo?" Adam Thompson:
II cannot explain any reason, but would like
to postpone it while" The court
continued, "Then | sentence you
to be hung on Friday the first day of July
1881 between the hours of II O'Clock a. m.
that day and aun-down." The court asked
Sheriff Jones if the prisoner could be ex-
ecuted within the jail yard, and the officer
said he could, and that it had been his de-
sire that the execution be as private as posi-
BILE. The court then ordered that the scaf-
fold be erected in the jsil yard. On his May
back TO jail, the prisoner remarked to dep
uty sheriff Spencer that be would like 10 see
Mr.. Clint, who had defended him and he
told Deputy Wooten that ne wanted to
make talk in the courtroom, but that he
could not collect his thoughts to express
himself

CITY ELECTION.

Tax Defeated.
Yesterday, election day, dawned clear and
the sun shone out bright The temperature
was pleasant, and had II not been for the
blustery winds and binding dust, the day
would have been fine one. But for the
hacks and other vehicles bedecked with
streamers bearing the names OF some candi-
dates, a stranger in the city would never have
suspected that municipal election was In
progress. 1t was, on the whole, the most
quiet and orderly election ever held IN tne
city of Dallas, and there was but very little
drunkenness. Later in the day, however,
more interest WAS manifested and good
deal of eleciioDeerDg was done, especially by
the republicans who di their utmost to
secure the election Of Stone and their Ia
vorite candidates for aldermen. up 10 noon
but a small vote had been polled, aud II was
evident that the number polled would be
small, far less than the real vote winch IS
something like two thousand in hard
contested election. AT tie last municipal
election the vote stood rs follows: First
ward, 400; second ward, 800; .hird ward, $40;
fourth ward, 800. The total vote cast was;
For marshal, 1882 for assessor, 1885, a full
republican and greenback vote was polled,
but many of the democrats, for some
unknown reason, perhaps it was indifference,
absented themselves from the polls Inc
proposition to levy tax for the
erection of public school buildings
was voted down. A great many
voted for and against it without casting
their vote for any candidate. As before
stated, the election passed off remarkably
quiet, though there was great deal OF wire
pulling done in quiet way. After the close
creased. and the more curious fingered around
the voting places until n late hour awaiting
the final count of the vote.
The most interest was taken in the mayors
race, and numbers bet on the result, the odds
generally being given by Goods supporters.
The vote stands as follows:

While the requirements per capita of wheat
may be pretty accurately gagged, as the
amount does not ductuate to any great extent
from year to yeal such is not the case In re
gard to corn. The de and for VIII CHI Is not
liked qusntity. The demand for beef, pork,
spirits, etc., exerts a marked influence upon
the amount of corn consumed. The compar-
alive quantity aud cheapDess OF the hay and
other forage CROP, with which corn comes In
competition for feeding purposes, also serves
to increase or decrease the requirements FOR
corn, while in a year of an abundant corn crop
the actual waste in its free and lavish use
makes the consumption per capita much
larger than in year of smaller yield
In this country the aggregate average con-
sumption for all purposes per capita OF all ce-
reals ia about forty bushels whereas In Ed.
rope IL bushels is all that is required. the diff
ference being mainly due TO the fact that the
requirements for stock feeding are much larger
In the United states than in Europe.
