BOB TOOMBS READY TO DIE

The house of Gen. Robert Toombs,
in Washington, Ga, Is a typical
southern home; beautiful flower
garden of an acre, flanked with bar
ley lots, fronts three-story wooden
home with large chambers, wide
halls and roomy piszzas. The gen.
ERALS Office is in his dwelling, but
he generally receives his companyin
the cosy sitting-room of the second
story. He is always cordial, and
gives all, friend or stranger, q kindly
welcome. Sitting in a large arm
chair, with his books within easy
reach and the well~used Bible
among them, he sat the last of the
old line. He Is "a, and he is broken
considerably slnos the death of his
wife. but is still vigorous old man.
The general has long been Method
ist in conviction, but only recently
has he become a COMMUNICATE of
the church. His determination to
connect himself with the church
was expressed in his usual styIe.
Meeting his old friend, BisbopPierce,
one day. he said: "George, l want
you to bsptizs me. l have no re-
ligion, but [ am afraid some of
these young fools who pirate about
infGelity will say when L am dead
[ did not believe in Jesus Christ land
L wish to avow my faith" He is
much beloved by his neighbors, and
by the children, to whom
he is especially tender. He says life
ia too ahC:t for animosities, and that
he hiss 10 fees and cAerishes no res
sentiments. He has made all things
ready for both worlds and it matters
little with him how soon he leaves

HORROR OF HANGING.

1t is admitted that there are many
other forms by which the death pen
ally could be imposed which would
be swifter and quite as sure; such,
for example, shooting, guillotining OF
administering a powerful shock oil
electricity. But the advocates oil
hanging maintain that none of these
would have the same impression
upon the public mind that the old
traditional form OF punishment now
produces.
Obviously, this is "a criticism the
soundness OF which il is impossible to
affirm or deny. We have learned to
associate hanging with a special hor-
ror in consequence of long associs-
ton; bat. after long practice, we
might consider the process of killing
man by powerful current of elec-
tricity peculiarly terrible method,
one well cslulated to appsl would
be criminal. We are welded to our
present custom in consequence of
the long period during which we
have continued it. and it cannot
from this he certainly argued that it
il as wise or expeditions a method a.
might be oevised.-l Boston Herald.

Detroit, 9.-The May crop report
returns are received from 1913 COR
respondents, representing 638 town
ships. As in 1883 and 1882 the
month of April WAS cold and dry.
At Lansing the average tempera~
ture was forty-three degrees above,
as compared with forty-six in 1883
and fortysfve in 1882. Scarcely any
rain fell from the 10th to the close
of the month. Wheat on sandy soil
looks fairly well; on clay land and
hills, especially on northern slopes,
the crop is badly Injured. An esti-
mate shows the condition of the
southern four tiers of counties to be
eighty-seven per cent, in the coun-
ties north OF the southern four tiera
ninety>seven per cent. of the con-
dition one year ago. Two per cent
of the acreage seeded to wheat will
be plowed up because it was winter
killed or otherwise destroyed. A
considerable area is thought to be
injured beyond recovery, bat will
not be lowed I'D because the ground
has been seeded to clover OF grass.

q resolution offered yesterday by
Van WICK. directing the Secretary
of the Treasury to withhold patents
for lands on the Pyallup branch of
the Northern Pacific railway nntil
Congress decides the question of
the forfeiture of such lands.
Senate then took Up Indians an
preparation bill aud Dawes briefly
recspitulated its provisions. Estim-
stes for year, he said, were S. 466,
500; amount Of bill a. it came from
the House So. 456.3S9. Amendments
proposed amount to $757,413. Total
reported to Senate for Indian ser.
vice the coming year S6,71S,SO2
This exceeds the Indian bill of last
year by SS40,147. Chief element OF
increase Dawes said, was the
amount for Indian schools.
The bill was considered by sec>
tons, and considerable progress was
made without debate, except upon
the appropriation for education in
Ala ka. The Senate committee had
reduced the amount from S15, coo,
allowed by the House, to $4,000.
HawleV moved to make the
amount S25, 900.
Plumb opposed the motion. He
thought the education of Indians
was costing great deal too much.
Ii was merely spending money with
out any practical result. Churches
were doing work at much less cost
than government was paying, edu-
cation of Indians should be of q
practical character. 1t was no use
trying to educate an Indian up to
the idea that he was prince OF the
blood. PLUMB ridiculed the efforts
Of inter led parties to influence
the appropriate of money for schools
in Alaska
Conger defendt d the Indians and
the work of their education. 1t was
work, he said, in which many
n BILE, phiianthropic men and
women were engaged, and should
be encoura- ed. He favored liberal
appropriations for it.
Pending debate on amendment
