En:husiasm In Paris.
PANS. August 1S.-The Grand Duke Alexis
has left this city FOR Vicby. The enthusiasm
evoked by tine visit Of the brotaer Of the
car has lost none Of is force by the personal
contact OF the Parisisus with the tall,
fne-locking Russian admiral, and upon every
occasion when he has shown himself to the
public he has received greetings that have
amounted to ovstions- Despite his reluctance
to be the recipient Of official welcomes there
is no doubt. II the grand dukes grace is an
index to his feelings. the spontaneous warmth
of his welcome by the pubic has made a
very agreeable impression upon him. The time
appointed for his departure for Vichy had been
announced in the newspapers and conse-
quently large crowds gathered along the route
from the hotel at which he was stopping 70 the
railway station.
As the carriage in which The grand duke was
riding passed along the streets she crowds
ch.ered him enthusiastically. and SIS lie smil-
ingly bowed in response to the hearty greet
ings rendered him, the crowd broke out into
crles of ''Viye lie Russo ct la France" and .'Vlve

the document was taken possession of
by the grand duke. When the grand duke
reached the railway station there was a repeti-

ing His wife.
ST. LOUIS, No., August 1S.--Henry Henson
was hanged in the Jail yard in this city this
morning, The drop fell at Til o'clock and
death was announced minute later. The con-
demned man passed last night chatting and
joking with the guards and appeared indiffer-
ent to the fact that his last hours on earth were
passing swiftly away. He did not sleep during
the latter part of the night nor early IN the
morning, and at o'clock he asked for and re-
ceived whisky cocktail. He said he wanted .
''bracer" for the ordeal.
AT $50 am. Rev. Edwards rector Of St.
James Episcopal Church, called to see Henson
and offered religious consolation, but the latter
refused to see him until the hour Of execution
arrived.
At o'clock the death warrant was read and
the march TO the sallows commenced. Sheriff
P. NJ. Stead and Rev. DR.. Edwards walked on
either side Of Henson, who was smiling ard
bowling to the reporters and guards. He was
placed on the scaffold at 7:I0 am. and at once
started in on rambling and incoherent
speech.
At I'll the drop fell and swapping sound
was heard as the vertebre parted. He was pro-
cunced dead at 7:20 o'clock. but it was evil
dent that death was instantaneous. The body
was cut down at 7.22 and carried into the
portions to do service for tho remains OF Hem
son, as no was I'm individual Of huge size and
weighed SIS pounds. Deceased was born in
Denmark in 1842.
Henry Henson was convicted OF the lurder
of his wife, Ida Henson. He married widow
with one child. They lived unhsppily together
in a boarding house which they conducted at
No. 405 South I'd street, Henson being CT an
insanely Jealous disposition. On the evening Of
February 2, 1889, Henson charged his wife with
receiving the attentions of a crippled tailor
who rented apartments in the house. A quar-
rel ensued, and after some hot words Henson
took yolver from a table drawer and started
toward the woman. The latter's thirteen-year-
old son interfered and Henson lett the room.
a little later he returned, placed the muzzle of
the weapon against the side OF the unsuspect-
Ing wopsan's bead and sent bullet crashing
into hef brain. As the stepson ran from
the room a second bullet grazed bis forp.
At the trial defense was made, but the jury
found Henson guilty after being out only thirty
three minutes

New York, August 13.-The stock market
was again strong At the opening this morning,
while displaying moderate degree Of activity,
which. however. was entirely due to the heavy
