of the AK. This was altogether too reSpecta-
BILE a method for one who had stolen a sheep
and in that case the offender was swung off
by the method in vogue today.
The day has doubtless passed when people
may be executed in the United States for
anything except the lower order of crimes.
President Lincoln, at the close of the civil
war, ~inaugurated a new departure in not
prosecuting the Confederate leaders, and the
precedent he then established will doubtless
stand. This leaves capital punishmene only
there is no death penalty whatever: while in
an electric execution the condemned at least
escapes whatever of ignominy attaches to a
felon's death by evading the gibbet.
One visiting almost any modern manufac-
turing establishment today will see the mo-
tive power by which Kemmler is to he ex-
ecuted. This is al ordinary dynamo. The
''chair of death, y are reserved for prisons.
There, when "A prisoner is to be executed, he
is led in to the execution room by those in
charge and is placed upon the chair of death,
to which he is strapped. A wire leads to his
head and wires to his toes. The current is
put through the wires and death comes so
speedily that the victim feels no pain what
ever. That is to say, this is the pinion of
those fayoring electrocution. The opponents
thereof hold that it is at least possible that
much torture will result. Recent expert
ments have, however, resulted in instan-
taneous death to various domestic animals.

THREE NEW BISHOPS.
They Were Recently Consecrated at St.
Paul, MINI.
A triple conservation of bishops in the Ro-
man Catholic church took place recently in



BISHOP STANLEY. BISHOP COTTER.
st. Paul, MINI. The Rev. John Stanley was
consecrated to become bishop of Jamestown,
N. D., the Rev. James McGolrick to become
bishop of Duluth, Mimi, the Rev. Joseph
Cotter to become bishop of a new see created
at Winona, MINI.
Bishop Stanley was born at Albion, N. Y,
in 1852. In 1851 he went with his parents to
st. Paul. He studied in Rome, and in 1874
was ordained priest in the Eternal City.
Then he returned to st. Paul and was sta
TONED at the cathedral. A year later he was
made pastor, in which position he remained
till he was made bishop.
Bishop McGolrick was born in Ireland
about 45 years ago and was educated at
All Hallows college, Dublin. He came to
America in 1867, and was made assistant at
the cathedral in st. Pau. After a years
service he went to Minneapolis and soon after
erected a small frame church on the ground
where the immaculate Conception nov
stands. 1t was the first Roman Catholic
church in Minneapolis. He has since been in
charge of the church that took its place.
Bishop Cotter was born in Liverpool in
1874. At 3 years of age he emigrated to
New York. He went with his father to st.
Paul in 1855. The boy was educated at st.
Vincents seminary, st. Johns, Mimi. was
ordained in 1871, becoming pastor at Vino
ma. The bishop is a great worker in the tenn
perance cause.
The ceremony of three priests being made
bishops at once naturally created "A great deal
of interest among Roman Catholics and
Professionals, and the church where it was
performed was crowded. Archbishop Ire
land was installed on the throne. His assist
ants were the Most Rev. Thomas L. Grace
and the Rt. Rev. NJ. Marty, D. D. The Rev.
Walter Elliott, of New York, delivered the
sermon. Many distinguished p~relates were
in attendance.

ing beer, which is stored in receptacles made
of bark and holding thirty or forty gallons.
Everybody is free to drink everybody else's
beer as long as it lasts, and in a few days the
fruits of many weeks of toll are consumed.
The beer does not excite quarrels, as it is
chiefly somnolent.
In October the LAND is spaded for the next
crop. The chief himself often goes to the
fields in his litter, accompanied by his mu-
sicians, and watches the long files of his sub
jects at their labors. He inspires great fear
among his people, for his government is Sc
we're, although he does not employ torture as
a means of punishment. The death penalty
is inflicted for crave crimes, out not for acts
of sorcery. as in most parts of sav2"C africa.
Here and there one sees groups of ten or
twelve men fastened together with an iron
chain while working in the fields. They are
thus punished for minor offenscs.
Unlike many important African rulers,
Moshide has no body of counselors, but gov
erns unaided, listens to all who come to Inn,
and. in the missionary's opinion, his decisions
are usually just and good. Cases are submit
ted to him wherever he may I've, end AZ all
hours of the day. In transac;ing business
with his people he has around him none of the
notables or sub-clicss of his country, but only
iiiH biiA 'AHNA 'tAa ~ 80 ACt VIII ~
the presence OF persons who attend simply to
listen TO the proceedings. Unless they have
business with him he sends them quickly on
their way.
The calm and peace which reign i'll the
country. Mr.. Arnot says, are quite reInarka-
bic. 1t is only, however, because MOshide's
people are far stronger than their neighbors,
who lead anything but a peaceful existence.
MoshiGe often sends out expeditions against
his neighbors for the sole purpose Of pi1ndcr.
The men are killed, their women and chill
dren are dragged into captivity AID tAoir
ivory is seized.
Mrs. Hore recently wrote from lake Tan
ganylki that the evils of the slave trade,
as the world sees them along the coasts, are
trifing compared with the miseries Inflicted
upon scores of unfortunate tribes 10y the in
ternaI slave trade. Moshide's slave cara
vans are sent hundreds of miles west to
Bihe. Arabs who have reached his country
also purchase many of his captives. As all
his human spoils are women and children,
the females of Garenganze largely outnum-
Der the male population, and polygamy is
extensively practiced.
Mr.. Arnot has "A high opinion of the salubrity
of this country around the chief head sources
of the Congo. He is apparently one of the
exceptional white men who can live and
thrive i'll equatorial Africa. Two mission
aries left the coast months ago to join him,
and before this, it is probable, that the most
isolated among the white sojourners in Africa
has had the pleasure of again greeting men
of his own race.

These literary societies in most colleges are
usually obsolete affairs, which have been re-
placed in spirit, if not in form, by the Greek
letter societies. In Princeton the literary
societies have been protected by the faculty
by keeping up a constant warfare against
the Greek letter societies. There are no
chapters of Greek letter societies in Prince
ton acknowledged; consequently, if they ex-
list, they exist under a disadvantage.
Away back in the last century there were
two literary societies in old Nassau hall, at
Princeton, the Well Meaning and this Plain
Dealing societies. Out of the Well Meaning
society came Clio hall in 1765, From the
Plain Dealing came Wing hall four years
later. The founders of these halls were men
in middle life a decade later, and were among
those who founded the American republic.
Judge William Paterson, the founder of
Clio, was a delegate to the provincial con-
gress and was the author of the famous
''Virginia PLAN for forming the Union.
James Madison, who built up Wing hall, pre-
sented to the same convention the New
Jersey plan.n

The case is important from the fact that
the law, if it is declared to be constitutional,
will stand for future condemned persons, and
hanging will be no more known in New York
state. Several other prisoners who haxe
been sentenced to death are interested, and
the fate of many who shall commit crimes
in the future hang5 upon the decision of the
court. 1t is probable that in The end this
last obstacle will be removed, and all muir
derers in future will die by the lightning
formerly supposed to be evidence of the
anger of a deity, now chained by the scient-
list to give comfort and life to the innocent
and death to the guilty.

The fisher tribes of the Congo are an indie
pendent class of natives. fortified. so to
sneak. in their rights of monopoly by the
impregnable positions they take up in the
midst of rocky cataract beds, where neither
hostile neighbors nor intrusive Arabs can
reach them. Stanley saws of them that they
are Industrious and inventive. In the streets
of their villages the fish curers attend lines of
curing platforms: the old men are weaving
purse nets and sleeves: the able bodied men are
al basket work. while the others weave rat

Communications 10 enable the traveller To see
its beauties properlv. As for the Father of
Waters-the Mississinpi-the CONGO is one
and n half times longer and from eight to ten
times broader. Along any of the numerous
channels of the African river the traveller
will see more beauty and variety of vegeta-
ton than on the banks of the Mississippi.
Besides. there are its crocodiles. its hippopot-
ami its elephants. its bufraloes red and

grandeur. The traveller in Central Africa is
not. however. confined to water routes ex-
clusiyely. and when he traverses the regions
occupied bv friendly tribes the hammock
affords a pleasant and easy mode of ''doingn
the tropical region. knowledge of the in
terror is gained by hammock travelling, and
the sick are often transported in this manner.
Some of the most interesting features of a
Journey up the river Congo are the scenes in
the interior. but often the eve rests upon
them along shore. Such is the village shown
in the Observation-Disclosures from a sketch by
Herbert Ward for The Illustrated London
News-a settlement of the Ba-vanzi. From
the water is seen u broad lane leading up to a
grove of oil palms and bananas, with COM
pact and tidy looking houses intersrersed
among them. The people are described by
Johnston. the naturalist, as finer looking than
any race seeu on the Congo. Some of the
men are perfect Greek statues as regards their

Clio hall was built in 1887, and Wing hall
in 1889. They stood in the quadrangle, and
were copied in their architecture from
the temples of Greeks, who have long
been a terror to all students who are
in love with everything about a college
except the studies. The halls have existed
half a century, and now are to make room
for two new halls exactly alike, with archi-
lecture similar to the old ones. They will be
built of marble, and will cost So, 900 each.
Many of the old Greek and Roman build
ings had bas-reliefs in that triangular space
over the columns and under the roof. These
bas-reliefs were often battle scenes or repre-
sensations of wrestlers. Now since Prince
ton beat Yale in the memorable football
game in the year 1889 in which these halls
were started, a bas-relief of the Yale and
Princeton teams, Princeton making a touch
down." should be put in the appropriate
place. 1t would commemorate a noble VIC
tory, and lend an antiquo-modern appearance
pleasing to all scholarly athletes.
The new physical laboratory of Brown uni
~versity, Providence, known as Wilson hall, is
well advanced in construction. The building
is named after George F. Wilson, founder of
the Rumford Chemical works, and it will be
devoted to physical science. The basement
will contain a laboratory room, a room for
magnetic experiments, and spaces for work
shops, engines, and the necessary machinery.
Throughout the building there will be special
constructions designed for scientific expert
ments. \ portion of the roof will he finished
as a platform for open air astronomical OBJ
servations, and one gable will have a sun dial.

Thus far there has been a considerable
effort to prevent linemen and others being
killed by the electric current, and an equal
effort on the part Of prosecuting attorneys to
be permitted to kill Kemmler. Yet a large
number of people have died accidentally,
while kemmler, who has been duly convict
ell and sentenced to death, still remains alive.
No court has thus far stood between an limo
cent citizen and a fallen wire charged with a
death current. The court of appeals still
stands between Kemmler and the chair OF
death. If this fails him he will furnish tn,
first case of death by what may be called the
Nineteenth century method.
There is at least one thing advantageous to
the condemned in this process over hanging.
In the latter he is compelled to stand upon
his feet at a moment when there would nat
urally come a nervous sinking. In the for.
mer he is suffered to recline comfortably, and
in his position somewhat resembles a man in
a BARRIERS chair, the posture suggesting what
is often seen in a barber shop-a shave and
a ''shine' at the same time. This is certainly
a more humane method of compelling him &c
meet death than by forcing him to stand till
the last moment during the narrowing de
tails and then jerking him into the air.

James E.. Umbstaetter tells a story which
illustrates one of the ;ricks in the patent
business. He wears a peculiar, old fashioned
watch chain, with a ring for a fob, hanging
from a vest buttonhole. 1t was given to him
by his father, who had worn it many years.
a day or two ago he visited a jewelry store
and asked to be show some watch chains.
The urbane clerk handed out a tray, and,
holding one chain delcately between his
white thumb and forefinger, said: There is
the latest thing out. 1t has just been pat
ented." why, it's just like the one | wear"
Mr.. Umbstaetter said, ald he compared the
chains. The designs Were identical, but the
new patent was bona ide. -Pittsburg Dis

but the ice king failed to make his customary
rounds, and the prospect of getting building
material was looked upon as dubious until
the weather bureau, anticipating the cold
snap, prophesied zero weather. The directors,
made happy by this, zealously turned to the
realization of their architects plan.
The structure is to be in the form of a cas-

in diameter, a royal banquet hall S0xS0 feet,
a tower $50 feet high, and a vista, connect

Parnell and many other suspects were re-
leased from the prisons Of Ireland. After
ward, when the Gladstonian policy of JUS
tice for Ireland was on trial and a renewal
of coercion was battled for in the house of
commons, O'Shea was found to be only a
half hearted champion after all. In 1885
Parnell nominated him for a vacancy in
Galway for parliament. This caused a hub-
bub throughout Ireland, and OfShea was
openly denounced as a traitor to the National
cause.
In the crisis Parnell hurried to Galway,
and at his bidding the situation changed at
once, He made a speech, and declared that
O'Shea's election was a political necessity.
Although he was still regarded with disfavor,
he was elected, and the grumbling ceased.
No sooner had he taken his seat than he
sided with the Tories, notwithstanding his
pledge to Irish Nationalist to support party
measures or resign. He was now kicked out
of his Galway seat and Parnell was not
strong enough TO save him. In the investiga-
ton of the famous forged letter O'Shea stood
for The Times and swore that he believed the
Parnell signature to be genuine. At the time
of the Galway election the present scandal
was limited at as the real reason for Parnell's
friendship for O'Shea, and yet the Office was
accepted without protest and without effort
on his part to clear up the cloud put upon his
wife's honor. The portrait is from a sketch
made OF Capt OShea when he was testify
ing before the Parnal commission. -.

HON. GEORGE II. BOXER.
Death in Philadelphia of a Man Famous
In Many Ways.

Mr.. George II. Boxer, whose death took
place recently at Philadelphia, combined two
rare gifts seldom found in one person. He
was both poet and diplomat. His verses were
of sufficient merit to attract the attention of
no less a literary light than Leigh Hunt. and
as a diplomat he once succeeded in Gverting a
war between the United States and Spain.
George Henry Boxer was born at ohiladel-
phia in 1923. His family, originally French,
removed to Holland, and thence to England.
There becoming identified with the "Quak-
ers," they emigrated to America and settled
in the City of Brotherly Love. Mr.. Boxer
was educated at Princeton college, where he
was graduated at 10, and soon after married
and went abroad. He had written verses at
college, and while abroad wrote more, pub
fishing a volume in 1647, on his return. In

graphic apparatus. The main laboratory on
the first floor is 24x4O feet and is II feet high.
The interior Of the building will have every
modern appliance that can serve the purpose
of its design and will be well supplied with
the very best apparatus for experiment and
for scientific instruction.
The architectural features of the hall will
be attractive. The front is 81 feet, the height
20 feet. The foundation is of red westerly
granite, and the walls above are of SeekonB
stone having the natural face, with window
trimmings of Nova Scotia olive stone. The
dormers are to be olive stone. The roof will
be of slate, and, with the chimneys and dor.
mers, will be red, as a contrast to the light
stone of the walls. The main entrance is the
arched recess in the center, and within the
arch are granite tablets for inscriptions. The
main lecture room is back of the ~vestibule,
and is 32x40 feet, with IA height of 20 feet.
This lecture room is connected on one side
with mail rooms for the professor and his
assistants, the library and some of the appa-
ratus rooms.
The construction of the building is substan-
tial throughout. The inside walls will show
the brick in even layers of red mortar, and
the surface will be highly polished. The cell
ings between the beams will be Of plaster.
Floors and roof are to be of plank. There
lined to the doors and windows, vestibule and
stairs. Ash and oak will be used.
The site of Wilson hall is in the middle
campus of the university and the building is
plainly visible from the street.

A cement said to be in successful use in the
London geological gardens, to resist the &C
ton of water and acids, especially acetic
acid, is composed of finely powdered litharge,
fine, dry, white sand and plaster of Paris,
each three quarts by measure, finely pull
verified rosin one quart. Mix and make into
q paste with boiled linseed oil, to which a
little drier has been added, and let 1t stand
for four or five hours before using. After
fifteen hours standing 1t loses strength.
