that small patriotic band of school teach

The more elf-provident had ridden or
ssauntered on ahead, and now, when that
small procession came redly and rather
faggedly tramping into the cool retirement

REsETTING THE DEATH-wATCH .

Sheriff Grant yesterday morning set his last death
watch II was over Adolph Reich. the old Hebrew
who killed his young wife year ago last Nav.
Reich was to be hanged on November 30. but Just
two or three days before that date Governor Hi
granted a respite until January 3. Since then the
prisoners friends have been expecting a final de-
csion but up last evening intimat!on had been
received from Albany to the time when this dc
cision would be made public Reich was much cast
down when at O'Clock yesterday morning the death
watch was renewed. He realizes that nothing more
can he done for him, and he knows that unless the
Governor interferes. he must die week from to-
morrow.
Ever since tho first death watch Reich has been
kept in the broad corridor the ground floor OF the
now prison. at tie Tombs, and has not been al
lowed to enter . coll at all, not even 70 sleep This
plan makes any attempt ct suicide almost impossible
