Another New Locomotive.


Another revolutionary locomotive has
been devised. 1t is to have two boilers.
one above the other, and engine and
tender are to be incaSed in a she'll of tin
iron, tapering off to point in front. the
whole machine being IS feet long and
weighing in working order 9ll9 tons.
Thus it will be - feet longer and u tons
heavier that the biggest European loco
motive vet turned out. 1t Is to have two
pairs of cylinders l5ai by l9l5 inches and
four coupled driving wheels 9 feet 9i5 in
ches in diameter. or more than twice the
size of our large passenger-engine drivers.
Great power and great speed are both
claimed for this novel combination of
parts and proportions, the ordinary gait
being modestly placed at seyenty-ive
miles an hour. but this being capable of
increase to ninety-two miles an hour.
This engine has been patented in France

Iiy the Catling Gun.

\ writer in the New York Sun, who is
apparently cnvious of the reputation ac-
auircd hy the inventor of the guillotine,
suggests he Gatling gun rs the coming
implement of the eNeyutioner. He argues
that the gun could Ice 50 arranged as to
cover the person Of the criminal and mer-
ringly pierce the vital organs, causing
a painless and instantaneous death.
There is something of merit in this
suggestion. The sight Of human be-
ing slowly straugling to death at the
end of u rope is peculiarly horrible.
and il has long been contcnded tat
it is especially hardening, not only to
eve-witneSses. but also to those who
read in the newspapers the full and elab-
crate accounts of such executions.
The Gatling gun would do the work to .
nicely There cclld be no mistake nor
awkward blunders adding fresh horrors to
the scene. \ platform could be provided
with a niche in which the condemned
criminal could stand; a touch Of the
crank and all would be over. No gaSping.
gurgling sounds; no writhing, no pain.
This method cannot be disputed as Of
doubtful efficacy, as the alternating current
has been, 1t would require no expert to
say that death would be instantaneous. or
that 50 much mere or SO much less powder
would be required, No expensive plant
with its complicated machinery would be
necessary The gun not easily get out of
repair. and one might serve for several
counties of state. or in and for the
whole state, and the execution could be
more private than is possible with the old
style gallows- This method is in many
respects the most desirable solution of the
problem yet offered.

DEATH IN THE RING.
A Brutal Prize Fight Ends i'm the Killing
of One of the Principals.

ST. LOUIS. Sept. IA brutal prize
fight occurred in saloon in this city last
night. which has resulted in the death of
one of the participants Thomas +. Jack
son, well known in local sporting circles,
was the victim. He was only lS years of
age. Jackson fought with Ed. O'Hearn. a
local light weight champion; eleven bloody
rounds had been fought and at the open
ing of the twelfth he fell fainting into his
seconds arms. The fight throughout was
one of the most desperate battles ever wit
messed in a ring. When Jackson fell
unconscious he was carried 10 a room
above the saloon and three physicians
were called in. They worked vigorously
but without avail, and at II o'clock this
morning Jackson died. The chief Of po-
lice has ordered the arrest Of all persons
concerned in the affair. The affair.
has created intense excitement. as
many prominent people will likely become
involved The referee was a sdorting edi-
tor of leading morning paper.
The spectators were principally sports
who made up purse Of $50 for which the
men. or rather the boys. contested. Two
ounce gloves were used. O'Hearn is a gas
filter by occupation and a fighter by incli-
nation Jackson was known in sporting
circles as Jack King. and his parents
were ignorant of his puglistic ambition.
An eyewitness of the battle says it was
one of the bloOdiest contests ever witnessed.
After the first round science was entirely
disregarded The bodies Of the men were
striped and blotched with blood, their
tights stained and gloves slippery. both
having bled freely from the nose and face.
The crowd which contributed the go for
which the men were lighting
cheered them on while the flooring was
getting slippery from their blood. In the
eleventh and last round, both were so weak
they could hardly stand up. o 'Hearn with
an effort struck Jackson swIning blow
which foored him, o Hearn falling on top
Of him from the impetus from his own
blow When time was called for the
twelfth round Jackson was put on has feet
and showed forward By the seconds but
almost Immediately fell back unconscious.
His body as seen at the morg1e presents
horrible appearance. HIS lips hang IN
shreds; his face Is one hvld mass Of
battered human flesh. black and blue and
terribly swollen The chest does not show
marks Of bruises to any great extent, 80
the man must have received all the blows
in the face and head. 0Hearn. the sur
yiYing principal, was arrested this after
noon He seems TO be proud of the fight
he made, ard says Jackson must have had
heart disease.
The proprieters Of the saloon where the
Sght occurred. one of the seconds and two
time keepers have been arrested and sew
eral will probably be behind the bars BE-
fore morning. 50 there are many uneasy
sports" tonight Young Jackson left

ives and Stayner. but to each question the
witness replied. Il don t know
Then the re ord of Woodruff's state
ments were read. and Ives counsel asked.
Did you make both or these statements? p
II did, and when you made them did
you know you were committing wilful
perjury
II did, said Woodruff.
Woodruff : affidavit in July, 1889, relat-
ing to the forgery, was compared with his
sworn statement at the reference suit in
Cincinnati, and Woodruff was again con
fronted with perjury He sad the first
