CAPITAL PUNISHMENT.
The Different Forms Of Execution In Use
In Various Countries.


Now that the mode Of executing
criminals Is again attracting the at
tention OF humanitarians, and il has
been thought that an entirely new
method OF taking life, namely, by
electricity, should be adopted, the fol-
lowing summary Of different forms Of
execution is opportune: Auto da fe, or
execution by the Spanish inquisition,
usually by burning, beating with
clubs, practiced by the South African
tribes; beheading or decapitation,
known 20 the Greeks, Romans and
Jews, and used formerly in England
and France, and now In China and
Japan; blowing from cannon, employed
in quelling "a rebellion among the
SepOys in India; boiling, formerly used
In England in the case Of poisoners;
burning, a familiar mode OF execution
in the time Of the early religious per-
secutions; burning alive, employed
among barbarOus tribes and even In
civilized countries; crucifxion, "a very
ancient form Of execution; dccimaticn,
employed by military tribunals, where
every tenth man was chosen by lot 10
die in cases whore a large number Of
soldiers mutinied; dichotomy, or
bisecting mentioned In the Bible,
where it is written men were drawn
asunder; dismemberment, used In
France in the seventeenth century;
drowning, In vogue in ancient Syria,
Greece, Rome and Persia; exposure 20
wild beasts, an ancient custom; ilaying
alive, formerly used in England; fog
ging with "A knot, used in Russia gar
roting, "A punishment originally de-
vised by the Arabs and Moors; the
guillotine, hari-kari, implement,
poisoning, hanging, pounding In a
mortar, precipitation, pressing TO
death, the rack, running the gauntlet,
shooting, stabbing, stoning strangling
and suifocation. - Chicago NeWS.

Cotton-Seed Makes Cheap Beef.

a series of feeding tests at the Penn
sylvania Agricultural College, very
carefully conducted, show unmistak-
ably that cotton-secd meal at current
prices Is one Of the cheapest feeds for
fattening animals. After three winters
Of feeding experiments, it was found
that If cotton-seed meal Is judiciOusly
combined with corn meal it can take
the place OF more than its own weight
of corn meal. 1t was also evident that
when the price of cotton-s seed meal Is
not much greater than that OF corn
meal, the former can be fed proftably
TO beef cattle. Since this statement is
made without any reference to the
manurial value of the two meals, IL
certainly is not exaggerated. Many
farmers do not know that the quantity
of nitrogen, potash and phosphoric
acid contained in a ton of corn meal IS
so small that it would cost only about
Sc to buy as much of these elements in
the form Of commercial fertilizers. In
cotton-sced meal, on the contrary, the
amount Of plant food il contains is so
great that it will cost S2S to supply in
the form of commercial fertilizers the
manurial elements contained In one
ton Of cotton-sccd meal. Certainly no
more arguments should be needed to
convince cattle feeders Of the profits,
both direct and Indirect, to be derived
from this food, since most Of its
manurial clements are retained In the
mannrn- ~ Enrin md Mnlnc.

have brought to mind the experiments
of old DR.. Franklin made more than n
hundred years ago. He put various
