Hangman,s Day.

From the Lancaster Examiner.
For centuries in the Old, and up to a short
time ago in the New World. executions for
crimes were carried into effect only on Fri
day. which invested that day with the super.
stitious belief that it was unlucky During
the existence of the Roman government,
says an exchange, criminals were crueified
on Friday. Among the Jews, Friday was
the period Of inticling death penalties, and
as far back as the history of the day runs, it
was the period named for capital punish
ment. In Europe. from the origin Of the
Christian era. the sword, ak and guillotiue
only dripped with blood on Friday, if we
may except the period ofthe French revoln-
tiun, wh.n d. Guillorne invented the ma
chine which bears his name, as substitute
for the bnngling work done with the ak,
when all days for many months served for
executions. Among the first 70 die by the
gu:llotine was the inventor After the
French revolution. executions in Frame.
were reserved for Friday. anj are still car.
ried into effect on that day in all the coun.
tries Of Europe.
Andrew g. Curtin, when Governor of
Pennsylvania, was the first chief magistrate
Of the Common wealth who dsviated from
the old practice OF naming Friday as day
for hanging convicted murderers. His ex-
ample in this respect has been followed by
all his SUCCESSORS in Office and continues In
be upheld with great propriety by Governor
Beaver to the present day. In other states,
since Pennsylvania adopted the innovation,
it hasalso been done, so that at the present
time few felons are now executed on Friday
in any state in the country.

THE SOUTH PENN SALE.
The Property Said to Be Securely
Held by the Vanderbiits.


Philadelphia Inquirer.
The recent sale Of the South Penn rail
road 70 George F. Baer, the Reading raii-
road attorney and director representing the
VapderDilts. is now said to be Of greater
significance than was at first supposed. The
sale was made by the sheriff Of Fulton eoun-
~. 10 satisfy q claim for room rent incurred
while work was in progress, which claim
was liquidated out Of the $500 received
from the sale. II was assumed that only
that portion Of the road lying in Fulton
county was sold but it IS now claimed thai
ali tine property of the company, its rights
and franchises Of all descriptions wherever
owned. were disposed OF. IL appears The
sale wRs conducted unde. an old law OF ls'v
by which sheriff can sell railroad property
IA COUNTIES other than his own.
Il is stated here that the effect OF the sale
viii be 10 sque, ze out the last Of the minor
ity stockholders aud vest the ownership oi
the properly solely with the Vanderbilt
family. The Nanderbiits, or rather their
family lawyer, Mr.. Stetson, bought up most
Of the syndicate subscriptions AT 90 per cent.
Of the cash paid in. The cost 10 ibe Van
derbilts was something over S2OoO,0Oo, not
counting > 900 paid IN by The late Viii
liam II. few members OF the syndicate,
however. refused TO accept the terms offered
perhaps hoping fJr better OF perhaps stand
ing out with view to preserving status
for future legal complications. At any rate
it is asserted the Fulton county sales wipes
out these half dozen subscribers. and makes
Mr.. Baer's clients the sole owners Of the
property. Il was announced at the time OF
The sale that the proceedings were subject to
a mortgage of sa0.0O0000 executed in 1883,
10 the Union trust company Of New York, OF
xhich - $4,000 were outstanding. None
Of the old members Of the syndicate knew
that a single bond had been issued and il
is believed that if they are outstanding al
all Mr. J. Pie1'ont Morgan knows where
Z every one is. In other words II is believed
/ that Mr.. Morgan is a sort Of trustee for tho
whole scheme, holding $ 100000 Of South
: Penn bonds given by the anderolts, aho
also S56oO.UO0 Of Bedford and Bridgeport
railroad bonds, guaranteed by the Pennsyl-
vania railroad, given him five years age
when the Pennsylvania attempted to pur
chase the South Penn but was defeated by
the courts. Mr. Morgan acknowledged hav
ing received the Pennsylvania railroad
! bonds and he is understood TO have held
them ever since Il is certain that not or
bond was issued before the Vanderbilt
bought out their associates, and whatevH
have been issued have been pat out in th'
last eighteen months. With Mr.. Morgan
holding a mortgage on the property for al
that it cost and the Nanderbilts holding th'
franchises, and the minority stockholders al
frozen out. it is believed the scheme is kille'
as effectively as the ingenuity Of lawyers car
kill it.
