HE WAS LEGALLY STRANGLED.
Ksvong Wah Choy, "a Chinese MUIR.
derer, ChOked TO Death at Raiiey,
Idaho, OH Friday Last.

kwong Wah Choy expiated his crime on
the scaffold at Haley on Friday last at l
o'clock, in the presence of less than 200
persons. He did not care to speak on
the scaffold, and the execution passed off
with neatness and dispatch truly COM
mendable in the Sheriff and his deputies.
The heather dropped seven feet, and
five and half minutes after DR.. Jones.
the county physician, pronounced him
dead. Half an hour later his body was
cut down, put in plain black coffin and
taken to Bellevue.
The condemned man displayed a stolid-
ity really remarkable all through his last
weeks and even up to the scaffold. He
took everything with entire indifference.
Although repeatedly informed that he
could have anything he wished, he asked
for nothing.
When the Sheriff bought him a new
suit OF clothes this morning, and asked
him if he did not want his queue cut off
to send to his brother, the Chinaman
said Yes, You gimme scissors me cut it
off," So whenever the matter has been
mentioned, he would always want to cut
it off himself. 1t is probable that if
scissors had been given him, he would
have committed suicide, as the Chinese
look upon death by hanging as the most
dlsgraceful thing that can happen to
them. Ills queue was not cut.
Although showing no agitation, the
condemned man spent most of last night
walking about the corridor in the iail.
smoking q corn-cob pipe. A box of fine
Havana cigars was offered him, but he
preferred his corn-cob.
When the Sheriff read the death war
rant to him, he listened attentiyelv. az if
he understood every word, and at its con
cluslon, when the Sheriff asked him if
ne mad anything to say, or if he didn't
want TO write to his relatives, he simply
answered.
Me no likee talkee."
When the Sheriff told him to come
along, at noon to-da.-, the Chinaman
asked.
Where you go2 To Court?"
"No," replied the Sheriff. "Come !
along" '''
The man walked to the buggy, got in
unassisted, ana never said q word, but |
looked around unconcernedly. This
seeming Indifference continued even
when, on ascending the second gulch
north OF Quigley's, the buggy came in
sight OF the scafold Choy looked at If
ntently, but never moved muscle. and
MS countenance remained unchanged.
On arriving at the scaffold he aIighfed
and putting his hands into
lls pantaloons pockets, walked up the
steps. BE paused moment on the last
step, looked all round the structure as
S If curious to see it well, and took his
place on the trap. Ashis hands were be-
ng pinioned, he seemed to waver for
moment and Sheriff Furey held him
Until his knees and legs had been
strapped. The rope was then adjusted
!bout his neck, the black cap pulled
Town over his face, and-the trap
lropped.-IFood Rirer Times, 18th. ,

SPECIAL DELIVERY IN SALT LAKE.
Che New System to be introduced
i'm Our City ON October Ist.

Salt Lake City is to have the Immedi-
ate Delivery System. There is posted up
in the city office large circular dated
Post Office Department, Washington, D.
c., August 18th, 1885, which sets forth
the appropriation act, approved March
| Sd, of this year, and provides that:
"a special stamp of the face valuation of
ten cents may be provided and issued,
whenever deemed advisable or expedient,
in such form and bearing such device as
may meet the approval Of the Postmaster
| General, which, when attached to letter.
in addition to the lawful postage thereon,
| the delivery of which ia to be at free de-
livery office, or at any city. town, or village
containing population of four thousand or
| over, according to the Federal census, shall
be regarded as emitting such letter to i'm
mediate delivery within the carrier limit of
any free-delivery Office which may be desig-
mated by the Postmaster General as special
delivery office, or within one mile of the
postofiice at any other Office coming within
the provisions of this section which may in
like manner be designated as a special
delivery Office"
1t has accordingly been decided to intro
duce the speoial-delivery system on the LIST
which it is permitted by the law, viz: Those
at which the free-delivery system is in OPP
Grafton, and those in cities and towns hav-
ing population of four thousand or over,
as shown by the last Federal census. A
list of the special-delivery offices is appended
to this circular.
The following is q description of the
speclal-delivery stamp prepared to carry out
the law, viz: A line engraving on steel,
obiong in form; dimensions 13-16ths by
7-16ths inches; color, dark blue. Design:
On the left an arched panel bearing the
figure OF mail messenger boy on rum
and surmounted by the words Omitted
States;" on the right, an oblong tablet, Or
namented with a wreath of oak and laurel
surrounding the words "Secure immediate
delivery at special-deliyery office" Across
postal delivery" and at the bottom the
words "Ten Cents" separated by a small
shield bearing the numeral "10.''
These stamps are to be sold by post
masters in any required amount, and to
any person who may apply for them, but
they can be used only for the purpose of
securing the immediate delivery of letters
addressed to and receiv 4 in the mails of
the offices designated as special delivery
Offices. They cannot be used for
other postage nor can any
other stamps to be used to secure the
special delivery. Registered letters will
be entitled to immediate delivery, the
same as ordinary letters. A letter with
a special delivery stamp may be mailed at
any office but it will not be delivered in
places of less than 1000 population. A
list of postoffices at which letters may be
specially delivered under the above-de-
scribed system is attached to the circular
for public inspection. bearing the name
OF office, county and State of destination.
There is no doubt but that the system
will prove convenient and be adopted by
many when fully established.

How to Consult DR.. FOote, ST.. by Mail.

DR.. Foote, Senior, author of "Plain
Home Talk" Medical Common Sense. y
etc, ETC., would say to those who would
like to consult him by mail that they can
have list of questions and circular OF

to have such information supplied in this
way to save time. Receiving such printed
matter the correspondent can describe
his or her case fully and direct it to the
doctor, in New York. DR.. Foote is
successfully treating all forms of chronic
diseases, speciality to which he has de-
voted thirty years of study and practice.
Evidences of his success can also be had
by addressing Box Ala, as above, but ali
letters of consultation and orders for
remedies should be addressed to DR.. E.

Within the past week several rich |
strikes have been reported from different |!
parts OF the camp OF Silver Reef, and,
the depreciation in the |
price of silver, a very hopeful feeling |
seems to prevail among the mining men. |
Numerous claims that have been idle for |
years are being opened up and worked |
with flattering results. The promises
made by the Teaching Company to
chloriders have induced many individual
owners to work low grade mines. AS a
several bodies of rich ore
have been discovered, and mines that
year ago We're considered worthless, are
proving to be bonanzas.
