DIED ON A GuIlLOTINE.
MiauelOn Murderer Executed in Pub.
 lie Square.
Man Named Nael Expiates His Crime Be- fore Crowd of 2OOO Residents of St. Pierre.

A dispatch from Halifax, N. s. Aug. 21, says, at five o'clock last Saturday morning a crowd of about 2O0O persons witnessed the square at St. Pierre, Mia. At o'clock in the morning the doomed man was awakened and told to prepare for his execution. which would take place two hours later. His reply was {: ''lt is just as well to do it now as any other time, as have been sentenced to death." A few minutes later he received a priest in the jail. confessed and made ready for death. Then trait-jacket was put on and his hands tied behind his back. After this wagon conveyed him from the jail to the court house, where he confessed to the judges, saying that liquor caused him to commit the murder. It was chum of Nael who was to drop the knife. When Nael saw him, he asked: "Is you who are going to kill me?" The eX- ecutioner said that it was. Nael replied: ''If you would kill me, you would kill others" Then turning to the crowd, he said: "Dear friends, my name is Nael. l am the first man killed this way in St. Pierre. I am sorry for what have done, and hope in St. Pierre no execution like this will ever happen again. May God protect you all" He turned around and examined the guillo- tine from top to bolton. He was then laid on his face on plank and lashed to it. The plank was pushed into place under the knife. Nael then said to the eXecutioner: "Do not make a botch of the job" In less than a minute Nael said he was ready. The eXecu- tioner touched spring and the triangular knife fell, but it did not do the deadly work well, as the head was not completely severed. The eXecutioner, with large knife, finished the work.

MORMON ELDERS WHIPPED.
Alabama White Caps Give Them a
 Warm Reception.
They Were Warned to Leave the Vicinity, but They Wouldn't-GO Each Elder Given Fifty Lashes While Tied up by the Thumbs.

A dispatch from Birmingham, Ala. Aug. p. says: News reached this city tonight of the whipping of four Mormon elders by White Caps in Marion county Friday night. The scene of the whipping is about eighty miles west of this city. Three Mormon elders. whose names are Taylor, Engel and Laired. have been proselyting in that county for sev- eral months. They have made number of converts. mostly women, and had grown very bold in their work. Some time ago they made converts of two young married women, who left their husbands to follow the elders and aid them in their work. Last Thursday night a band of twenty men disguised by white masks called at the house where the el- ders and the two women were stopping and left the following written notice directed to all Mormon elders in Marion county:
 of you are in the county tomorrow night
 (signed) "wHITE CAps."
 The elders decided to remain, and their converts in the neighborhood agreed to pro- tect them. Friday night a band of 100 men, all wearing white caps, took the three elders into the woods and suspended them to a limb by their thumbs, They then gave each one 90 lashes with heavy switches, and warned them to leave the county at once under the penalty of death. Elder Taylor tainted from the effects of the punishment, and was almost dead when released. The two women were warned that, unless they returned to their husbands at once, they would be dealt with in similar manner. The better class of cti- zens in the county denounce the whipping as an outrage. They have no sympathy with Mormons, but believe in upholding the law, and oppose resOrting to violence.

FRED DOUGLASS AND HAITI.
Opinion That a White Man Would Com
 mand Greater Respect.

Opinion That White Man Would Com
 mand Greater Respect.
 The possibility that MT. Fred Douglass may not be sent as minister to Haytl after all pleases many of the New York merchants interested in the Haytian trade. The princi- pal avowed objection to MT. Douglass seems to be that he is a colored man, and that the than they have for white man. The lighter the negro is in color, the lower he sinks in the estimation of the native Haytian. A prom inent representative of New York house doing business with Hayti said: ''I cer- tainly hope that MT. Douglass will not be sent to Hayti. He is not at all skilled as a diplomat, and is not even prac- tical business man. Besides, he does not speak French, and is man of narrow views at best But, even without these disadvan- tages under which he labors, the fact that he is colored man makes some other selection advisable. The Haytians have no respect for negro, and it is time we stopped sending colored men to represent us there. What the United States wants in Hayti is a white man of ability, who will inspire respect, and really have control of our interests at the Haytian capital. We have splendid chance just now to effect this by sending the proper man, and I hope the state department will recognize the fact. Other merchants expressed similar views as to the disadvantage of having col ored representative at Port-au-Prince. Min ister Preston is in favor of MT. Douglass, and points to the fact that Mir. Reid, who has been sent to France, does not speak French, and MT. Bassett and MT. Thompson, the tw o former American ministers to Hayti, were both colOred men. ''What the United States wants in Hayti," said Minister Preston em- phatically, ''is an honest man, who cannot be bought"

Rush to Have Chance for Another GlO-
 rious Seizure.
 A Victoria (B. O. special says: The Uni ted States steamer Rush will have another chance to make glorious seizure, and the Canadians will probably have another hearty laugh at the seized vessel steaming home with the prize crew as prisoners, for it is whis- pered that the Black Diamond will shake the British flag in the face of Uncle Sam's rev enue cutter again in a few days. The Black Diamond left here early this "Wednesday morning, ostensibly on a little trip up the that she is really off on a sealing cruise into Behring's sea-: There is no question of braggadocia in this, in reality, although it may seem so. The owners of the Black Diamond believe they have perfectly legal right to hunt seal in the waters of the Behring sea, which, they claim, are beyond jurisdiction, and as to the chance of having to carry home one of Uncle Sam's revenue officers as passenger, why, they say, they don't mind that at all. This action of the owners of the seized vessel is worthy of con- sideration, because it practically shows what the popular feeling really is here in regard to and her power or her policy to enforce it..

SLEEP AND REST.

Two Essentials are Desired-Hints on
 Diet-Insomn1a.
 ssTo get absolute rest for mind and body at night is the necessary thing for the preservation of health. The bright eye and clear skin that charac- terize youth can only be retained in that way," remarked physician to 8 reporter for the New York NeaUs.
 cit is a fact" he continued, ssthat few people know what it is to rest well.
 "No one can get refreshing sleep in room that is not properly ven tilated.
 ssNo one can sleep as we'll next to a boiler-room as he could in place where no jar or noise exists. Every vibration or violent sound is clash with the nerves of the sleeper and 8 destroyer of his needed rest, whether he be conscious of it or not. The hustle and roar of every great city is more or less a tax on the life of each of it's inhabitants.
 ''Another great enemy of rest is mental labor, when it is called into use before retiring. Any one that con- centrates his thoughts in any way like ly to cause worriment or anxiety be- fore going to bed will pay the penalty by sacrifice of his rest, and by carry ing hollow eyes and unstrung nerves all the next day.
 'Indigestion and constipation bear about an equal share in the theft of sleep.
 ':The effect of indigestion on the human system is worse when the body is meant to be in state of repose. There is no way then of throwing it off, and it must be allowed to do it's worst in facilitating the one attacked.
 "Now, regarding the question of eating before retiring at night, should say it is equally as bad to eat indigesti- ble food or a large quantity of any sort of viands as it is to go to bed hung ry. An empty stomach will cause a rush of blood to the head, and one that is heavily laden is likely to be filled with obnoxious gases, in which the ele- ment of carbonic acid is not so preva- lent as to prevent some consequences that lead to broken rest.
 ssIf one is troubled with insomnia, a bandage soaked ill cold water and laid across the eyes and temples will afford almost immediate relief and guarantee rest to the weary person if he suffers no other ailment.''

employment in the city. It was alleged that they were too big and unhandy for farm work, were devoid of intelligence. But they have lived down all this islander, and today find the readiest sale of any horse in the country. The average farmer has come to believe that they are profitable to breed and to use, though he may not yet have owned any of them. We believe that the farmer who will breed these horses will find it profitable.
 CURE FOR COLO IN HoRsEs.-C. H. Allen, Queens Co.,, N. Y., writes us that he has found three drops of tine ture of colocynth sure cure for collie. The tincture is to be given in three or four tablespoonfuls of water, repeating the dose every twenty minutes until there is relief. Colocynth is a strong irritant, yet, although we do not doubt that horses have recovered from collie after taking three drops of tincture of colocynth, we can hardly believe that so small a dose has produced this effect. It is given to the human sub ject in doses of from five to fifteen grains. Among the most effectual remedies for both spasmodic and flatu- lent collie in the horse are the follow ing: Aloes, eight drams; tincture of aconite, thirty drops, in pint of water; or inseed oil pint, to which may or not be added an ounce of sul- phuric ether; or oil of turpentine, two drams; laudanum one ounce; inseed oil, pint, or in great pain, laudanum two ounces; warm water, eight ounces.

WEDDED TO BE A WIDOW.
Disguised Because Her Husband Did
 Not Die on Time.

Disguised Because Her Husband Did
 Not Die on Time.
 Another matrimonial event booked for the near future is given unusual interest by the brides former mar riage, which created quite sensation at the time. The lady's name is Frankie Brown-McKee, the daughter of the late Hiram Brown, who was 8 wealthy resident of Oakland. Upon the death of her father Miss Frankie fell heir to $5O,OOO, and she immedi- ately started in to enjoy life at rather rapid rate. Among her throng of acquaintances was a dashing widow, who became the bosom friend of the young heiress. Frankie admired the ways and manners of her friend, and thought that if she could only become widow herself she would possess all the attractions which she so greatly envied. She sought the advice of her friend, Capt. Richard Apgar, who has since died. He told her to marry someone who was dying, and offered to secure such bridegroom. Frankie Brown assented.
 Capt. Apgar's friend, Dr. Anson A. Du Puy, was treating for consumption a young printer named Frank Mckee. The young man was informed of the young lady's desire, and also of her offer to pay his expenses until he died and to provide for his funeral. The printer was dazzled by the glittering offer and lost no time in consenting to the marriage. Miss Brown called up on Mckee, was satisfied with the deathly pallor of his cheeks, and mar ried him. Then she hied her to a dressmaker's and ordered an elaborate funeral trousseau.
 The printer ingerered along-too long his bride thought. From time to time word was brought to her from the sickbed. The reports which told her that her husband was fast nearing hls end were encouraging, and they were usually accompanied with little bills for attendance upon him which she promptly paid. Finally she decided to satisfy herself by ocular demonstra- tion that Mckee was goiug to repudi- ate his contract by living. She was proceeding down Broadway, Oakland, one day, with the intention of visiting her husband in this city, but as she was about to board train a hand was laid upon her arm.
 Turning her head, her eyes rested upon a well-built, broadshouldered young man, with the glow of health in his cheeks and well-rounded stomach that betrayed great intimacy with the good things of life. It was her hus- band. She nearly tainted, but recov- cred quickly and upbraided Mckee for not dying on schedule time. She em- phatically announced that she would not live with him, whereupon he. de- manded cash settlement. Frankie honored his demands and they were renewed. The strain was too much for her purse and she fled to Europe to escape her husbands importunities. When he saw that he had lost her, Me Kee took to drink and in about six months died in blissful state of intox- ication.-San Francisco Letter.
