Hanged for Murder.

ST. LOUIS, January 15th.-Chas. Wilson,
colored was hanged this morning for the
murder OF river steamer mate some time
ago. He remained calm to the last. pro-
testing his innocence. Wilson killed Vim.

ME Twatum on July 81, 1885, by hitting
him on the head with a rock Wilson had
been discharged and ordered away from the
steamer, returning to get some money he
claimed was owing him After the trap
had been sprung the body for a moment
remained motionless, and there was enacted
a scene OF horror which chilled the blood
OF all who witnessed it. Two doctors. one
on either side, were each holding the wrist
when violent contortions of the hanging
figure shook them aside, and before they
could regain their hold upon the man,
whose actions showed that he was in full
possession of consciousness of all that was
going on, he mad frantic struggles to re-
lease himself. His right hand shot up,
clutched the rope and held it firmly. it
seemed as if the man must die by slow de-
grees from strangulation, but one of the
doctors succeeded in disengaging the hand,
and in short time the body hung life
less corpse.

"Crack crack crack" short and sharp
like the discharge of rifle, were the
sounds that greeted the residents of Sussex
street, near Greene, about four o'clock yes
terday morning ''Grackl crack" the
sounds continued faster and faster. Win
dows few up on all sides and night-capped
heads were stuck out to find the cause of
the unusual commotion. They found it.
1t was fight, and terrific one. In the
middle of the street there were three goats
in deadly combat. They would back off
and come together with terrific sound.
Then they would try to gore each other
with their short curved horns. For half an
hour the battle lasted, when female form
clad in the robes of night few up the
street and into the midst of the fight. The
next instant there was scream, then one
of the old style ''dull thuds, and the afore-
said female was lying full length on the
ground with defiant billy on her back. 1t
took the other fighters about minute to
realize what had happened and then they
backed off about ten feet and gave jump.
It was big one, and it was stopped almost
as suddenly as it started. It was the de-
faint goat that stopped them. Not inten-
tionally. Oh, no! The heads of those
other goats were nearly driven through his
body, and he laid down beside the body of
his fallen victim. Before any further dam
age could be Gone three men ran out of as
many houses and succeeded in catching
and holding the Infatuated contestants.
Then another man came out and dragged
the fallen woman to tie sidewalk, where

NEWS reporter learned that the lady was
the Widow Maloney, and that the goat that

and her goat are progressing slowly. The
other goats are still in bondage, in care of
Mr.. Patri k Doyle. The owner can have
them by calling and paying the widows and

yesterday morning, by his twelve-year-

lived with his two sons. He has been in
the employ of Matthiesson & Weichers for
some tine and has been a Woodworking

He had left work at six o'clock on that
evening, and tended the children of his
neighbor, Mrs Mary Mcclure, for q couple
of hours Upon her return he went out to
get shaved, as he said. He returned at
eleven, very much under the influence of
liquor, with young friend. Murtha
treated his friend to some whiskey, after
which the young man left. At one o'clock
Mrs. Mcclure saw Murtha sitting on chair
uear the door. Later she heard a fall. but
she thought nothing of it, as no was drunk.

found his father lying on the floor, face
downward, dead. Mrs. McGuire's husband
got home from work at $50, and notified
the police. An officer was sent to the
house, where, upon examination, slight

County Physician Converse said that the
bruises amounted to nothing. He thought
that he must have suffocated, as he was
lying fiat on his face, his nose being fat
tened to the floor.

warden osborno in PERU.

Warden Osborne and DIR. Boyd of the
City Hospital on Montgomery street, are
congratulating themselves upon their es
cape from what might have bees proved a
very serious accident. Yesterday, while
the warden was driving the hos
hospital ambulance through the gate to
the street a light wagon was being driven
from Montgomery street. It was quite
dark and the warden did not notice the APP
proach of the carriage until it was within a
few wards of the ambulance. To avoid q
collision he was obliged to use all his
strength to hold his horse back. The strain
caused the breechen strap to break, and
the shafts OF the wagon broke loose from
their sockets, thus leaving the horse free
from the wagon. The herse became I'M
manageable, and in attempting to run him
against bank on the opposite side of the
strset. the ambulance was upset, and the
warden AMI DR.. Bird thrown into the
street. Neither Dr. Bird nor Warden Os-
borne was seriously injured.

FEEDING THE POOR
At the Children's Home and Other Char.
liable Instftutfons.

The young ones at the Children's Home,
on Glenwood avenue, enjoyed themselves
Christmas day and night more than they
had ever done before. Miss Winchester
who has charge of the children, gave them
full liberty, and they took every advantage
of her kindness. Many presents were sent
in by the friends of the children, and the
presents we're strewn all around. In the
evening very elaborate Christmas tree
was lighted in the nursery. The children
gathered around the tree and sang songs
and admired the decorations with childish
delight. Christmas eve night Miss Win
chester attempted to fill the stockings of
the children with candy, but the children
were wide awake all night and until the
early hours Christmas morning, waiting for
the visit of Santa Claus. At about four
o'clock Christmas morning Miss Winches-
ter succeeded in filling the chiidren's stock
ings. Among those who sent donations to
the Home were Mrs. G.. w. Clifford. The
South Bergen Reformed Church also made
donations of toys and other gifts.
Warden George Osborne delt that the
City Hospital words ought to have some
Christmas cheer about them; and he pro-
vided some neat trees from the Moonachie
swamps. One was set up in each ward,
and decorated. Last evening the trees
were lighted, and the eyes of the sick were
alight with pleasure at the glow.
Mr.. w. Lewis and Miss Edge, of BALDWIN
ave., donated money with which the ever
greens we're purchased. Mrs. Garretson
and Mrs. Kemp donated fruit and jellies,
Mr.. A. Post furnished oranges, Mr. E. G.

Richerich saw two men engaged in carry
ing a redhot stove on First street, near the
Point of Rocks. On approaching the men
he recognized one of them as George Nei-

Steamer.

Fears for the Safety of Rotterdam
Steamer.
The Netherland American line steamer.
sP. Caland," running between the foot of
York street, this city, and Rotterdam ia
ten days overdue to-day; and from the
time of her departure from Rotterdam
nothing has been heard of her. She is one
of the largest and fastest vessels of the line
and the company officials are of the opinion
that serious accident has befallen her.
She had large cargo and full comple-
ment of passengers, among the latter being
a number of American tourists returning
home to spend the Christmas holidays.
The vessel carried only enough food to
last few days longer than the trip, and if
her passengers are safe from a watery
grave, they may have encountered more
horrible fate.
That none of the many steamers which
arrived in this port during the past two
weeks has seen or heard of her is regarded
as bad sign by all who are interested in
the vessel. The Scheidam," sister ship
of the ssP. Caland," will arrive at the Com
pany's pier, foot OF York street. to-day.
The ssSchiedam left Rotterdam one week
after the. (" Caland," which should have
sailed yesterday. For the past few days a
crowd of anxious persons have visited the
companys pier in this city in search Of
tidings of the missing vessel, but they could
get no information. Those persons whose
friends are passengers on the vessel passed
very miserable Christmas, fear of an
awful calamity having befallen them pic
turing itself to them. A crowd was at the
pier yesterday in search of information,
but could get xone.

help him home. McAnally consented
After the trio had left the saloon. Joseph
Finley, a boy, saw Betty with his hand in
McAnallys trousers pocket. He stepr ed
up ard said
.'If you don't take your hand ont of
that mans pocket, I'll squeal on yon.n
''What's der matter wild yer? I'm not
goin' to rob der man. I'm goln' to take
him home" replied Betty.
They proceeded on their way, and. on
reaching Lnyster's saloon, stepped in for
drink. When McAnally went to paw for

Full Dress in New Guinea.

The beaux and bellies of New Guinea
are by no means forbidding. Imagine
a man about five feet nine inches in
height his body a nice brown color
covered, if he be a masher, with red
earth, and vanished with oil, his face
painted in different colors and piece
of polished stone through his nose, his
long hair frizzy, ornamented with bird
of-paradise plumes and cockatoo feath-
ers his teeth black or red, his ears
weighed down with huge ear orna-
ments, his waist compressed to wasp
ish proportions with a broad belt of
bark, shell armlets upon his arms and
dogs teeth necklaces around his neck,
a breast ornament of boars' tuSks or
pearl shell, gayly printed waist rib
bon, with long streamers in front and
behind, anklets and kneelets of colored
flax, and a small, Melted bag over his
shoulder; imagine all this, and you have
a typical New Guinean. The women
are like the men for regimes. The
young girls wear great abundance of
ornaments, but after marriage fewer,
They are all pfofusely tattooed, and wear

Extraordinary Coincidence.

In the year 1864, on the 5th of Decem-
Der, boat on the Menai, crossing the
Strait, with eighty-one passengers, was
upset, and only one passenger, named
Hugh Williams, was saved. On the same
day, in the year 1855, was upset another
boat containing about sixty persons,
and every soul persisted with the ex-
ception of one, whose name was Hugh
Williams. On the 9Th of August, 1920,
a third boat met the same disaster,
but the passengers of this were no
more than twenty-five, and, singular
to relate, the whole persisted, with
the exception of one, whose name was
Hugh Williams.
