Going to Sec a Man.

1t was midsummer in the country. There
were half dozen girls whose brothers and
sweethearts were all toiling in the city and
could not get to the watering place till Sum
day. There was not a male human in sight,
and hadn't been for two days They were
all sitting gloomily on the veranda of the
hotel
Girls l can't stand this any more," ex-
claimed one.

that they might not miss him. Exchange.

executloner Atkinson, however, has always
taken all the obloquy, and is regarded as the
hangman.
Atkinson is bit of q thinker. He saws
that even electricity as means of execution
will not last long. He doesn't believe in can
ital punishment, he tells The New York Sun.
He surely ought to know something about it.
considering the number of people he has
swung off. He says that hanging makes a
martyr of tough among his gang. and
pretty soon, instead of being scared off. some
of them come up to go through the same pro
cess Before the happy state of affairs comes
wherein murderers are not made to suffer
death electricity must have a trial This
needs an electrician for an executioner.

was at first supposedD merely absconded to
Canada he could not be extradited When
it was discovered that he had been stupid
enough TO add forgery to his other crimes
they felt more cheerful for forger can be
taken back to the scene of his crime when
caught, whether he has crossed an interna-
tional boundary or not. At first there was q
question whether in his case this could be
done because he had taken care to redeem
the forged paper himself before his flight.
The best legal minds of the capital agreed,
however, that this fact had no bearing on the
case; that forgery was forgery, and forger
was extraditable.

The first coal shipped into this marke,
from Mercer county was from the mines
OF X. B. Ellis in the fall of 1875, and
hence given the name it still bears. 1t is
well known to be the best sold in the
market. and other merchants have adop-
ted the same name and offering an in
ferior article for the genuine. Don't be
deceived, but buy the genuine celebrated

self and His CHASTITY Trade.
The hangman's occupations gone in the
state of New York, where there is no one
under sentence of death till after the 1st Of
January, 1890, and Joe Atkinson, who for
thirty years has done this sort of sob" will
then give way to the electrician.
Atkinson is a carpenter by trade, and
hanging is an outside matter with him-a
method by which the luxuries of life may be
attained. Many years ago a man came to his
shop and asked him to help him fix up some
beams. The carpenter went to work at the
job and soon found that it was scaffold he
was helping to build, and the man he was
helping was the hangman. He went on with
the job, however, ani other similar jobs, and
occasionally took hand at the hanging. At
last the hangman died, and Atkinson sue
cee1ed him. But he kept at his trade of car
penter, and took an assumed name Atkin-
son is not his real name, and very few who
associate with him and his family know of
the sixty-one people he has launched into
eternity.
His method of hanging divides the job into
several parts, so that no one may be said to
perform the act. Atkinson drops the moose
over the victims head and connects the metal
