ALMOST A BREAKDOWN.
The Belt of the kemmler Dynamo
Slipped at the Critical Moment.

City Electrician Charles r. Barnes Of Roches-
ter, who operated the dynamo at the Kernmer
execution, has revealed how narrow an escape
they had from breaking down at the critical
moment
THE Kemmler execution was decided fail
ure," said he, "but il managed properly it
might have been success. The dynamos we're
placed upstairs on an ordinary wooden floor,
with no additional precauton to make them
strong and secure. The dynamo when running
at full speed would vibrate the floor from one
half to one inch. The countershaft was place
on wood framework resting OH this floor. and
was not lined up properly so that the pulleys
would run true. The belts used were new ones,
not worn enough 30 they would run smooth.
and had not been used enough to get the
stretch out of them, SO when the load was
thrown on them they would slip.
The electricians in charge of this room con-
sisted OF three men besides the citizens who
were to look on with me. One of these men
gave signals which he receiv ed from the
switch6oard room to the engine room, which
was below the dynamo. Another one was busy
oillng the dynamos and putting rosin on the
belt to try to stop the slipping, while the third
was busy holding board against the pulley &c
keep the belt on, and had all he could do to at
tend to this part Of the business. as when the
curIeHt hdo turneu Oh tne Hrst TIME anu the
extra resistance Of the chair circuit, which in.
Guided Reminders body, was thrown on the
dynamo, the belt came very near leaving the
pulley.
AT that time there was not even one-half oil
the belt on the dynamo pulley and the arma
ture was brought down SO that it was not run.
ming much if any over half speed. 1t took two
men to keep the belt from flying of before the
signal came to shut down. Even after shor
interval the signals to start came in quick sue
cession and the same thing was repeated. All
the time the dynamo was running the slipping
OF the belt could be heard in the prison yard
II that belt had come off when the current wa.
sent to the chair the result would have beeI
simply terrible"

A Fatal Bicycl, Ride.

One Of the most singular causes of sudden
death that has occurred in some time took
place in the extreme west end of Fairn,oun,
Park, Philadelphia, Saturday night. when
Florance w. Grugan, a member of the large
grocery firm of Mitchell, Fletcher 4 Co., al
18th and Chestnut streets- fell from bicycle
he was riding and expired in few moments
before medical aid could be summoned. What
the direct cause of death was nobody seems t.
know, the physicians who viewed the body con.
tending that death was due to the drinking OF
a large quantityaOf ice water while overheated
and members OF the family claiming that death
was caused BY heart trouble.

SchWeinfurth Will Marry,

''Savior" Schveinfurth has weakened and
procured marriage license at Rockford, Ill.
for himself and Mary L. Weldon, one of his
dupes, giving their ages as forty two and thirty
five respectively. There is now no doubt that,
frightened by the pressure OF public opinion,
Schweinfurth intends to marry the woman.
This step is regarded as practical confession
OF his guilt and has not tended in the least to
alay public opinion against him. How he is to
make a reparation to his other dupes his dis
ciples do not explain

The remaining 6, 740 copies represent the sales

by newsboys. But Of this latter number q very
large proportion is supplied regularly to per.
manent residents of the city living in lodgings,
dc. (not householders). SO that its whole circuls
ton may be literally said to be in the family
circle. While its aggregate circulation there
fore gives TIE STAR a distanctips and s1.Uiabs
position in modern journalism, the fuilness OF
fits home circulation, the extent to which
1t is relied upon by members of the
household, and particularly by the pur-
chasing portion of the community, are
the marked characteristics of the paper,
to which no other daily journal now
published can furnish parallel.
This is no idle boast on the part of the paper.
1t is well established fact, demonstrated to
the full satisfaction of the sagacious and enter
prising business men of Washington, who seek
and know where to find THE LARGEST
RETURNS FROM THE MONEY PAID OUT
FOR ADVERTISING. This is proven by the
growth Of THE STAR's advertising patronage.
Nothing can more surely illustrate the
esteem in which any article is held by the
public than a constantly increasing demand
for it-day by day, week by week, month by
month, and year by year,-in the face Of adj
verse claims and pretentious competition. The
figures following tell the story ON this point:.
