the point where Dunstan's corpse was

The Knot Slipped.

GUELPH, oST.. November 29.-Wm. IL.
Harvey, who in March last murdered his
wife and two daughters, was hanged at 8
O'Clock this morning
The execution was one of the wors; pieces
OF bungling ever witnessed.
The weight which lifled the body was not
heavy enough, and the scaffoid was not high
enough 10 give sufficient rebound to break
the condemned mans neck, and his strug.
giles and contortions as he was slowly strang-
led to death were frightful. To add TO the
horror Of the hanging the knot slipped, and
the gurgling in the mans throat as his life
was being choked out could be heard out
side the jail walls.
During the night the Rev Mr.. Dixon
passed several hours with the doomed m an,
and again visited him early this morning.
Harvey slept well and this morning ate a
hearty breakfast. The death warrant was
read to him 7:5j and his arms were pinion-
ed and the procession headed by Rev. Mr..
Dixon, marched to the scaiIold. Harvey
Hooked haggard and raised his eyes only
once. The prayers for the dead of the Epis-
copal Church were said during which Har-
vey's legs were pinioned and the cap drawn
down. The rope was then cut and the
frightful scene above described ensued.

He Killed Only One Man During His
Term of Imprisonment.


COLUMBUS, November Ex-Governor For
aker last night granted pardon to William
Carroll, who was serving life sentence in
the Ohio Peaitentiary, Carroll was convict
ed twenty-five years ago for the murder of
Adam Rose. watehmsn of the Brown Coun-
ty Court House The crime was committed
in an attempt to rob the Treasury vaults of
that county. The history of Carroll is one
Of the most dramatic and intensely inter
esting chapters in the criminal annals of
this country. He escaped the detective after
arrest, went west, married a daughter of
Major Armstrong. of the United States army,
and became resident of Illinois. In that
State he was captured after he had served in
the war of the rebellion.
Since bis Incarceration in the Ohio Peni-
tentiary he murdered a fellow prisoner in a
burst of passion. There has always been
much doubt as to the identity of the noted
prisoner, as he was convicted entirely on cir
cumstantial evidence, and this, together
with his general good behavior in prison,
clused bis pardon.

An Editor Shot.

0eDEs, Utah, Dec. IA sensation was
created here yesterday afternoon through
the shooting of C. s. King, editor of th.
Daily Oiioa. by ex United States Deputy
Marshal Exum, Of this place. The trouble
which has been pending for several days,
originated in the publication by the Union
of an article rejecting on the character of
Exum's wife. King was waited on by Ex-
um next day, and published an apology for
slander, but aggravated the original offense
by subjoining an innuendo, which so infuri-
ated Exum that. upon meeting King on the
street, about four O'Clock yesterday, Exum
drew pistol and shot him twice, one wound
being dangerous but not necessarily fatal.

Should prunkenness be Punlshed? !?

Should Drunkenness be Punished
The PHILADELPHIA Times in answer to the
above question says: The free and exhaus-
tive discussion OF the evils of drunkenness
during the last few years has developed a
searching inquiry into the question OF treat
ing drunkenness as a crime against society.
Most OF the sgitation for public sobriety
has been directed aglints the keepers of ho-
tells and saloons as if they were the sole
criminals, while the drunkard who willfully
brutaIizes himself has been treated as the in-
nooent victim ofthe rum seller.
Now, The question of sternly punishing
drunkenness as crime is very generally
discussed, and with a strong tendency OF
public sentiment to demand the recognition
OF drunkenness as crime for which the
drunkard is responsible, and punish him
with such severity as would be likely to
repress this very common vice.
1T is simply the sickliest Of sentimeniali-
ty to treat the drunkard as the helpless vic
tim Of the rumseller. He is tempted, OF
course, by the gilded saloon and by social
customs to cultivate and crafty his appetite
for intoxicating drinks; but who that COM
miis crime is not tempted2
The State Of Minnesota has already clear
ly defined the crime OF drunkenness by
statute with severe penalties for every viola
ton of sobriety as violation of law, and
the sooner that like laws are enacted in ali
the States of the Union, the sooner will the
most practical and the most just methods be
adopted to suppress one ofour commonest
and most demoralizing crimes
