FERGUS FALLS, Aug. 23.-Word was

Judge Chapman that Robert Arola had
escaped from the insane hospital at st.
Peter. Arnla was tried in the district
court of Otter TaiEcounty last Novem-
Der for shooting his father without any
provocation, and the verdict was "not
guilty by reason of insanity" He was
then committed to the insane hospital
by the probate court. There has been
doubt in the minds of many people
whether the verdict of the district court
jury was warranted or not. though there
is no question that ArOla has but low
grade of intelligence. After shooting
his father he escaped to the woods and
was not captured for several days. He

will bring terror to every person who
was in any way connected with his
arrest and Incarceration. He is GER

BUTTE, Mont, Aug. 23.-Harry Rob
erts was hanged to-day for the murder
of j. w. Crawford. The drop fell at
1:12 and Roberts neck was broken by
the fall. A strong pressure was DrOught
to bear by Grand Army men and num-
ber of citizens to have the sentence COM
muted to life Imprisonment, and 1t was
not until S:45 this morning that the con-
demned man abandoned all hope OF par
don, when the sheriff read mes
sage from Gov. White refusing to
interfere with the laws decree. Roberts
did not weaken to the last, and died as
he had lived-a cool and determined
man. This is the first execution in Sill
yer Bow county. Roberts crime was
the unprovoked killing of Crawford on
May ID last. Crawford was a teamster
under Roberts. and they had a quarrel
and Roberts shot him while drinking.
A somewhat dramatic incident was con-
nected with the burial Of Crawford.
He was good-natured man and had
many friends. His relatives all lived
at Butler, Mo-, and kilograms were
sent asking them what disposition
should be made of his remains. No
answer vas received for two days, and
the funeral procession, with Crawford's
remains, was en- route to the cemetery
when the coroner came rushing from
the street with telegram from the rel
atives. This stated that they would like
to have the remains, but were too poor
to pay the expenses OF embalming and
shipping. A collection was taken up
on the spot. the body brought back to
town, embalmed and shipped and all
expenses paid. 1t was then discovered
that 5000 too much had been subscribed.
This amount was accordingly sent with
the remains to the relatives.

Ability Subservient to Politics in

WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.-President
Lyman. of the civil service commission,
was to-day questioned by representa-
tive of the Associated Press as to the
views of the commission with respect
to the proposition to so amend the civil
service rules as to remove chiefs of di-
visions from the excepted class, and
place them in the class subject to
competitive examination. He said in
response that the commission has not
recommended to the president such
amendment of the rules as suggested,
though the commission holds that the
filing of places of division chiefs by
promotion of subordinates would be in
the interest of reform. By the removal
Of these places from the excepted class
they would, the commission holds,
cease to become political prizes, but
