Hsnging IN Chains.
Notes and Queries.

One Of the last criminals, II not the
very last, who, after execution, were
gibbeted and hung in chains" must
have been Cook, the murderer Of Mr..
Psas, at Leicester, in 1888 or 1884.
Some Of the elder Of your readers may
recall the horrible details OF the muir
der. II remember rightly, Cook, be-
ing in pecuniary difficulties, knocked
his victim on the head with crowbar,
for the purpose Of robbery, during a
business call, and endeavOred to make
away with the body by burning 1t
piecemeal in the fire. place of his ware
house or Office. So much horror was
called forth by the atroCity of the crime,
that 1t was strangely enough) thought
advisable to hang the body OF the muir
derer in chains, somewhere in the
nsighborhood Of Leicester, in terrorum
homacidarum. But the 81 bbesed corpse
" as 30 powerful magnet TO the lovers
of the horrible, that people came from all
parts to zee the CHASTITY spectacle, until,
Us remember Its being described by
the TALLER, cit is like q fair under the
gibbet." The scenes Of riot and de-
bauchery which ensued, led very speedi-
ly to an order for the removal of the
body. As a boy, visited Leicester
Jail in 1884, and saw there the so-cailed
" chains" in which the murderer's
corpse had been suspended. They CON-
sisted of set of iron straps, framed to-
gether 80 as to encase the whole body,
head, arms, and legs, with a hideous
resem blance to the human form. At
the time speak OF, hard upon half a
century ago, these irons were kept in q
kind of museum in L icester Jail to-
gether with casts of murderers' heads
and other curiosities of the same kind.

Of fixing by statute what man shall

be the idiocy of defining by law what {

The Ohio Democrats are queer set
of people, that, Judging by their actions
for a few months past, move entirely by
contrarieS. They professed to be ont
acknowledgements Democrats of the
old JetterSon-flckory stamp, but they
turned in, pulled together and elected
an old time Republican, but a recent
convert to their faith, Governor of the
State They protested to be in favor OF
civil service reform, but turned around
and defeated the leading champion OF
civil service in the Senate, though he
was member Of their own party.
They PROGRESSED to be in favor of tariff
revenue reform, which means free trade,
and turned around and elected an avow-
ed tariff Democrat to succeed Mr.. Pen
dleton, a revenue reformer in the Sen
ate. They protested to abhor monopo-
lies, but elected the paid attorney of
that giant monopoly, the Standard Oil
Company, 10 the Senate of the United
States. 1t is hard to tell what these
Ohio Democrats are in favor of. We
rather suspect that the platform of
" anything to beat the Republicans, "
suits them best.

The total wreck Of the City of Column
bus on Thursday and the loss Of over
one hundred lives constitute one of the
most heart-rendhg marine disasters
that has happened on the American
coasts for many years. The company
composing the ships cargo
were mostly invalids on the way to
Florida in search of health, and had, no
doubt, planned a delightful holiday
amongst the orange groves of the South.
They had but left home that day, and
before the evening shades come on, the
most of them were in eternity, while a
few were clinging, frozen, to the re-
mains of the ship that still remained
above the water. The first public i'm
pulse is to blame somebody for this
awful loss of life, and not unreasonably
50. The City of Columbus was one of
Roach's best built ships, and no COM
plant so far as we have read has been
made that it was not in a safe condition
or unseaworthy. The opposite is the
truth. The vessel was sound, and had
every convenience for speed and com
fort. Then the fault was not in the
builders.
But there are several practical ques-
tons that need answering. All ac-
counts agree that there was a terrible
gale, and the sea was running high, but
there is no account that the vessel was
not under full Roadway. Then the
question arises whether the vessel should
have been under way at all under such
adverse circumstances. Would it not
have been the exercise of q safe and
UNSUITABLE prudence to have delayed
starting until the terrible gale had at
least partially ceased to blow The
vessel was passing through the most
dangerous straits on the coast of Massa-
chusetts, places which more than all
Others, required the strictest lookout,
and yet it seems that the captain was in
his state room when the accident occur
red having left the two mates in the
pilot house. Ought he not to have re-
manned on deck until the steamer had
passed the most dangerous portion of
its track? The captain asserts that the
ship struck outside the DEVILS Bridge
buoy, and consequently must have
grounded on an unknown ledge in mid
channel.
Can it be possible that there are I'M
known lodges of rock in that well-beat-
en- course, or is it not more possible that
the ship was out of its regular course ?
Is it possible that one of the pilots was
at the smoke stack warming his hands,
and the captain was taking his ease
in the state room, while tie ship was
passing amongst those dangerous shoals
when this terrible accident occurred ?
The heart sickens at the thought. These
are questions though, that must be sat
isfactorilly answered before the officers
Of that fated steamship can be released
from the terrible suspicion of having
betrayed their trust, and trified with
the lives committed to their care.

PAKTIES who have been in the habit
of going out to Illinois for the sake of
securing Il divorce the more easily will
find that object more difficult to ac-
compliSh now since the decision of Judge
Shepherd in the Superior Court, at
Chicago on Saturday last. He decided
that it was essential that the complain
ant should be resident of the State one
entire year prior to the fling of an APP
plication for divorce and that it must
be proven that both parties of the suit
were residents of the county where the
application is made at the time the
offence charged in the bill occurred.
