THE DEATH PENALTY.
The Grant County (Oregon) News, last
Friday afternoon, issued an extra which
says that Peter Sullivan was executed as
per sentence passed upon him last Sep
tember by Judge lson. Shortly before .
o'clock, Friday evening, the prisoner
assisted by Sheriff Gray and Deputy
Eads, mounted the scafiold. When
asked If he desired to make any state
ment, his only reply was to "show re-
spect to his body" His limbs were
pinioned and black cap adjusted, and at
precisely 2;0l the drop was sprung. The
knott slipped around under the victim 8
chin, and the horrible contortions of the
body were discernible for eight minutes
At the end of nineteen minutes Drs. Orr
and Pruden pronounced life extinct, and
after hanging twenty-eiglit minutes the
rope was cut and the body lowered and
placed in coffin, and conveyed to its
last place of repose on the hill, without
| a triend to shed "a tear over his depart
ure. So ended the earthly career of
the second murderer executed by the
sheriff of Grant county within a period
of seven months. A short time before
| tho hour of his execution he informed a
| News reporter that he had repented of
| his evil deeds and felt himself forgiven
that for tho past three years life had
been a misery to him, and he had nc
rest. He was satisfied with the result
of his late trial. and preferred hanging
| to life imprisonment. No mention was
made of the man whose soul he had
hurried into eternity.

ROADS FOR The MINES
The Coming Season Will Be a

Important Extensions

The numerous parties of Spokane
Falls who have mining interests In the
famous kootenai country will be pleased
to learn that the indications point In
the direction that three railroads will be
constructed next season to open up that
region and thus create transportation
facilities for the inc exhaustible quantities
OF mineral near kootenai lake and river.
One of these roads is the Spokane
Falls Il Northern, which Mr. Corbin
says will be extended next season from
its present terminus at Moscow, OH the
Columbia, to Nelson, oil the west arm OF
Kootenai lake. Surveyors for this ex-
tension ere now in the field and the work
of construction will no doubt be resumed
with the opening OF spring.
This line will furnish direct communi-
kootenai mines and make this city the
supply point on the one hand and the
most convenient point for treating the
ores on the other.
THE N. p. EXTENSION.
The second line is to start from Koote.
mai station, point on the Northern Pa.
cific, scventy.fvc miles east of Spokane
Falls, and extend thirty-two miles
northward to Bonncr's ferry, on the
Kootenai river, from which point the
mines at Warm Springs, Nelson and all
the Eas: Kootenai river can easily be
reached by boats.
The REVIEW has 1t from high Northern
Pacific authority that the company Is
making preparations to construct their
line In tho spring. and its completion
will add another feeder to aid In The ex.
panding interests of spokane Falls. This
line Will run through level country,
tlensely covered with fine cedar and
other saw timber, and no rock work
will be required in its construction.

to build the road next summer.
The company has pledged itself to the
government to construct the line in the
spring, and the surveyors arc now OH
the ground to make q final location OF
the line.
All in all, intense activity will reign
in the kootenai country from next

The need Of uniform marriage
and divorce laws Is again illustrated
in the case OF contested will at
Lancaster. a woman who applied
for letters Of administration on the
estate of her husband was surprised
to find that he had secured divorce
from her in Nebraska several years
ago. This was her first knowledge
Of the Nebraska proceedings. But
this is by no means rare case.
It is only short time ago that .
woman in Brooklyn made like
discovery. Il is discreditable to
the nation that its marriage and
divorce laws permit of the many
gross wrongs that are constantly
coming to light unier them. Tno
proposition to amend the Consti-
tuition SO as to provide for uniform
law on this subject throughout the
nation is wise and urgent one.

In that direction, expecting that some ca
lamity had befallen the large Kent store
house, but the cloud of rising dust
showed that the long roof OF the coal and
lumber shed extending from the Kent
warehouse to the wharf on the Christiana
had collapsed.
The roof OF corrugated iron had not
been properly braced when put up, and
the sides had simply spread apart and
had let the top section drop to the second
story floor. There was nobody In the
building at the time, and there was
nothing iu the second story to get dam
aged. The loss will not be more than
$3.50, as the tlmbers and roof can all be
used again. The property now belongs
to Levi ii. Miller.

A Life Made Miserable

By dyspepsia is scarcely worth the
living A capricious appetite, heart
burn, puzzling nervous symptoms, in
creased action of the heart after eating,
sinking in the abdomen between meals,
and flatulence after, are among the sue
cessive indicia of this harrassing COM
plant. Two things only are needful for
Its removal. A resort TO Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, and persistence in Its
use. These remedial measures being
adopted, cure is certain. Taken i'm
mediately before or after meals. this
great stomachic promotes secretion of
the gastric JUICE, the natural solvent of
the food. The nervous and bilious sym
toms consequent upon chronic indiges-
ton disappear, AS the complaint grad
ually yields TO the corrective and in
vigorating influence of the Bitters.
Appetite returns, sleep becomes more
refreshing, and as sequence, the body
is efficiently nourished, muscular power
increases, and the mind grows sanguine.
Use the Bitters tor chills and fever, and
rheumatism.
