SATURDAY EVENING. JUNE 1.

EXECUTION OF A MISUNDERSTANDING A.
Coleman, colored. was hung in the Ports.
mouth jail yard yesterday afternoon at 1890
o'clock for numbering James Grant, Nor
folk county dairy man, On the afternoon of
the 9th OF September. About 200 people
witnessed the hanging, besides large crowd
who were on the house tops and telegraph
poles in the vicinity. The murderer walked
boldly to the scafold. When the drop was
sprung his neck was broken and he died
almost instantly. The crime for which
Coleman was hung was most brutal one.
While his victim, Grant, was milking one
of his COWS, Coleman stepped up behind him
and brought the sharpe edge of an axe down
on his neck almost severirg Grants head.
Coleman then rapsacked the house and at
tackled Grants housekeeper, Miss Pratt,
cutting her severely about the throat. he
was arrested three days after he committed
the crime, tried, found guilty, and sentenced
to be hung. He made no demonstration on
the scatfod and made no remarks OF any
kind before meeting his end. He had pre-
ylously, however, confessed his crime to his
priest. He also acknowled yesterday morn
ing that Coleman was not his right name.
The mans name was Mat. Berney. He
was born in Irving, Laurens county, Georgia,
about thirty-two years ago. When ten years
of age he ran away from home, and has
since travelled from place TO place. he got
into difficulty with man In Concord, N.
O., few years ago and shot him, after
which he fed from the place.

The Truth Of History.

Daniel Dougherty, in bis address at
the Baltimore centennial, said that III
colonial times "the only religious mar
tyrs in America were Catholics. They
were spurned, slandered, yiificd, and
the highest honors of the Republic
dcuied them by a prejudice as strong
as constitutional enactment"
1t is true that the Puritan governors
of Massachusetts, Belcher and Endi.
colt. prosecuted the Catholics, but the
Puritans prosecuted the Quakers even
to the extent of hanging some OF them.
Annie Hutchinson and Mary Dyer
were prosecuted by the Puritans
Roger Williams was driven into exile,
and Corey was pressed to death by the
Puritans for refusing to testify. There
was nothing done to the Catholics In
colonial days that was worse than
these cruelties. In a later times a
Catholic religious asylum was burned
by A mob in Charlestown, Mass.-a
foul deed, but not worse than the
sac king of the home for colored chii-
dren by the Catholic mob during the
draft and rints Of 1868 The truth Is
that the bigotry, ignorance ana ofu-
tnlity in America have not been con
fined either to Protestant or Catholic
circles. Abner Kueeland was mobbed
and iailed in Boston for editing i
deisticaI newspaper; Garrison was
mobbed for publishing an antl-siaVery
4
journal. Both in Europe and Amer
lea, bigotry, brutality. superstition,
and ignorance have committed awful
crimes, and neither the Protestant nor
Catholic Church can show clean hands
in this respect. Where power ana OPP
portunty have been present pers.eeu,-
cution has done its work IN po'"
churches.

SURGERY or TODAY.

The following is from the Salt Lake
Tribune of a recent date:
In the latter part of August o. H.
Farlinger, a prominent citizen of Eu-
reka, Nevada, arrived IN Salt Lake
City, blind in both eyes. For months
his sight had been gradually leav-
ing him, and it Is now truly pa
thetic 10 hear him describe how, lit
tie by little, sight faded away until
at last he was in total darkness, and
he had to be led to and from meals
and there fed. He was told that by
a delicate surgical operation be could
If the operation proved successful
have his sight restored to him. 1t
then became a question OF momen-
tous import to him 10 whom he could
trust sufficiently to allow him to oper-
ate. After numerous inquiries east
and west from New York to San
Francisco, he decided TO place him.
self IN the hands OF Salt Lakes young
oceulist. DR.. A. w. Burrows, Of Free
man * Burrows, who after an exam
nation, decided TO operate on the left
eve first. Accordingly, The Doctor,
assisted by his partner, DIR. Freeman,
and his sister, Miss Nellie Burrows,
at p. NJ. on Monday, Sept. I'd, per-
formed the operation on the left eye.
The method decided upon was "Von
Graefe's Linear and by $3.50 the
eye had been cut open, an iridectomy
performed, and the lens extracted, all
blood clots and capsular shreds clear
ed from the interior of the eye and
1t neatly bandaged, when he was in
formed that the operation thus far
was a success. As 10 the subsequent
progress of the case it is gratifying 10
hear Mr.. Farlinger, his face radient,
describe his visit to the fair and his
appreciation Of the live stock there
exhibited, also his strolls around our
city, and how he is impressed with
our new business blocks in progress
OF erection. He is apparently enjoy
ing the great blessing of sight to the
uttermost. The primary operation
was so thorough that secondary one
was not necessary, a characteristic OF
the Doctors surgical work. After
short visit home, Mr.. Farlinger Will
return and have the eye-now totally
blind-operated on. let US hope that
the Doctor will be as successful with
the second as with the first. AS it is
an honor to Salt Lake that her sur
peons should be selected before those
ofanyother city in the Union, and that
the result should prove that the con-
fidence thus reposed is not misplaced.
| hereby certify that the above is
absolutely correct.
