Peter Sullivan was hanged at Canyon

Of John Brunkee, last April, The

"ShortIy before 2 o'clock on the after
noon OF the 18th, the prisoner. assisted
by Sheriff Gray and deputy. mounted
the scaffold. When asked If he desired
to make any statement his only reply
was to "show respect to his body" His
limbs were pinioned. and the black cap
adjusted. and at precisely 2:Ol the drop
was sprung. The knot slipped around
under the victims chin and horrible con-
tortions Of the body were discernible for
eight minutes. At the end OF nineteen
minutes Drs. Orr and Record pronounced
life extinct. and after hanging twenty
eight minutes the rope was cut aud the
body lowered and afterwsrd buried on

1t is interesting to read in Rohlf's re-.
cent acsount Of money in Africa that even
the untutored black kicks vigorously if
he fiuds that the circulating medium fuc.
tuates in value. Strips of native cotton
cloth were once used extensively in the
Soudan as money. The strips were cut
in lengths, the standard of measurement
being the distance from the end of the
longest finger to the elbow. Of course
there was large variety of lengths. and
in time everybody tried to pay his debts
in short and collect his dues in long
strips. The result was that financial
transactions often ended in . row, and
when Rohlf visited the country cotton
money was in deep disgrace and had been
slmost entirely superseded by Kauri

WRITING FAMOUS POEMS.
Something of Interest to Remember When
You Read the Verses.

Gray's immortal "Elegy" occupied
him seven years.
BRYANT wrote "Thanatopsis" in the
shade of grand old forest-a fitting

Cowper wrote one of the drollest and

premonition that he was going to die

in Connecticut in fifteen minutes. He
wrote it under pressure in response to
call for "more copy"

Poe first thought of The Bells"
when walking the streets of Baltimore
on winters night. He rang the bell
of II lawyers house (a stranger to him),
walked into the yentleman's library
shut himself in, and the next morning
presented the lawyer with copy of
his celebrated poem.
The "Old Oaken Bucket" was first
suggested TO the author, Samuel
Woodwork, in Il bar-ruonl. A friend
with whom he was drinking said that
when they were boys the old oaken
bucket that hung in hls fathers well
was good enough for them to drink
from. Woodwurth Immediately went
home and wrote the famous poem.
