A Murderer Slowly Strang1ed to Death s- by a Bungling Execution.
 GUELPH, Ont, Nov. 3O.-William H. Harvey was hanged here for the murder of his wife and two daughters on March 26th last. Harvey slept well and ate hearty breakfast. The death warrant was read to him at 7.55 and his arms were pinioned and the procession, headed by Rev. MT. Dixon marched to the scaffold. Harvey looked haggard and raised his eyes only once. The prayer for the dead of the Episcopal Church was said, during which Harvey s legs were pinioned and the cap drawr down.
 The rope was then cut. The execu tion was a piece of brutal bungling The weight which lifted the body was not heavy enough and the scaffold not high enough to give sufficient rebound to break the neck The struggles and contortions of the victim were fright full and he slowly strangled to death.

LAWLESS BANDS.
Over Forty Robberies Committed 4n OnA
 County During the Week.

READING, Pa., Nov. 3O.-The arrest at Pine Grove of the four Long brothers for systematic robberies of local mer- chants stores, of which the elder Longs 8 establishment was one, has directed public attention to the necessity Of rid = ding this region of the organized rob- bers who have lived for months upon private plunder.
 There is not village or town within radius of thirty miles from here that has escaped the ravages of the lawless band. The value of goods stolen and destroyed by them mounts up to the thousands of dollars. and the frequent recent captures of supposed leaders seem only to have checked the outrages in slight degree. During the past week twenty more robberies have been com mitted, two of them upon the public highway and the others in towns with the aid of burglars entering tools.
 Near Lebanon, while F. H. Yetter was returning home, he was surrounded by a detachment of the gang wearing masks, and in the struggle that ensued was shot in the arm. Harry l.. Frey of Manatawny, while walking on the road leading from Pleasantville to Shanes- vile, was knocked senseless and robbed by another detachment. Nine burg laries were committed in and around Orwigsburg during the week. Similar outrages have been perpetrated within the past four days at nine other places. Justice of the Peace Joel Dreibelblis had his house robbed at Virginsville, the postoftice at Frachville was cleaned out and the Pennsylvania Railroad freight depot at Pottstown. Morris Reynier's house at Lnfield: James Boyer's residence at McKeansburg, Lewis Bridegam's board ing house at Tuckerton, Peter Helter s barn at Molltown, David Becker's resi- dence at New Ringgold, and Albert Mohring's dwelling at 1,o56 Spruce street in this city, have been success fully entered and robbed.

Sketch of the New Speaker.

Sketch of the New Speaker.
 Tom Reed looks anything but the traditional leader. He has the frame of Japanese wrestler, and his head might serve for that of a Chinese giant He is fat and tall, and his big -boned body is padded at every point with muscular flesh. His face is broad, fair and fat; the cheeks puff out, and a pair of small half-almond eyes shine like goes on and on upward until it fades away into a fuzzy badness about three inches in front of Reeds crown.
 Reeds mouth is a strong one, and he has struggling red mustache on his upper lip. Reeds hair is thickest at the sides and at the back. It is not lux uriant at any place, and he combs the sandy locks well up and over his ears, so that the ends of them just touch the is pasted upon Reeds broad, fat shoul- ders with fat, wafer-like neck, and when Reed sits in his chair in the House, with his hands up under his chin and elbows leaning on his desk, you | wonder whether he has any neck at all, and you can hardly imagine him to be the greatest man among all the mem bers surrounding him.
 He cares little for appearances, and oSoohoAA he walks about the House with his hands in his pockets, stopping now and then to tell story to crowd of brother members and making laughter wher- ever he goes. He never writes out his speeches for the 'Record,'' and seldom corrects the proof of them as taken down by the stenogra phers. He can l make as good an after-dinner speech as l Congressional one. and he enjoys the | good things of this life as we'll as any 1 other man in Congress.
 Tom Reed is, however, simple in his | habits. He is nota money-saver nor . | money-accumulator, and he would be a | richer man if he had remained out o1 Congress. During his past career he
 has lived very simply at Washington His quarters were in the Hamilton
 House, private hotel frequented
 largely by New Englanders. Reed had
 couple of little rooms up near the
 attic, and he worked away at his desl
 against the wall and under a gas-jet
 The only picture in the room was z print of Abraham Lincoln, whom Reet
 admired greatly. You never found hin
 loafing about the hotel. and he has spen
 the chief part of his leisure in study | This year he has changed his quarters | and he will live at the Shoreham, whicl
 is more comfortable, but which will b. ] quito as retired as the Hamilton.
