UNPRECEDNTED cold and unusually
early snow storms are reported in the
northeast. Only Ill this incompar-
able climate is found that real comfort
which the seeker after health and
pleasure so fully enjoys. Texas is
destined to be the winter home of
thousands fleeing from the rigors of
northern seasons, and the dampness
of Pacific slope regions. Already the
enquiries for winter homes are multi
plying and San Antonio is wisely pre-
pairing to accommodate more winter
visitors than have as yet sojourned
within her borders. All who come
once are only too glad to come again.
Like dear old friend the Alamo city
is ever greeted with delight by those
who, having once enjoyed her bless
ings and comforts, return after a sea-
son of absence. Each returning win
ter finds still larger number seeking
the Incompatible benefits of this eli.
mate and this year will be as former
ones only more abundant in the
strangers it will bring here for 6
winters residence.

CoLUMBUs. o., July I3.-Ebenezer STAN
yard. the Youngstown murderer who killed
his sweetheart, Alice Hancock, early in 1887,
was hanged in the penitentiary annex at
/ o'clock this morning He played his ac-
cordion before going on the scaffold, and ap-
peared 10 be at hts ease, talking great deal
and meeting his fate with more nerve than
many supposed he would.
The crime for which he suffered was q
brutal one, ttepretty young girl being shot
from behind apd all on account Of jealousy.
Stanyard' had had two trials and his case
had gone through all the higher courts. He
claimed 10 be temporarily insane at the time
of the shooting
When Stanyard ascended the scaffold be
calmly surveyed the twenty-five or more
spectators. In an instant his eyes fell on
Wilbur Knox, the young man who was with
Alice, Hancock when the murder occurred.
Then he grew white as death, and, taking
hold of the irontrailing around the scatfOld
demanded of the, warien that Knox be ex-
Guided from the room. The warden said
that he did not kmow the man. When Knox
was pointed out by Stanyard the former
stepped outside the door, but remained in
view of the scaffshd
Alter the'death warrant was read he be
gan disconnected and rambling talk, being
finally stopped by the warden. He wanted
to postpone the execution by continuing lii
talk, and when reminded by Father Leonard
that he. Stanyard, had promised to forgive
all his enemies, the doomed man said there
weraelots of them present and he did not
want them to see him. 1T would be a favor
to me and mother if you would put them
out, '9said he, and again started to tell why
he killed his,sweetheart.
He was stopped again, and by this time
was so faint that he could hardly stand
This crime will not only cause any death
but also result In the death of mother" said
he. ''She could not help what | did, and |
hope the reporters will treat her right"
His arms and logs were pinioned and the
black cap drawn over his head After the
cap had been drawn he continued to talk,
but his remarks ware inaudible except when
he was heard several times to ask the Lord
to have mercy on his soul The trap was
sprung at l:27. The fall did not break his
neck. the man dying from strangulation.
