HANG MURDERERs.

The present Legislature will he dere-
lect IN It's duty If il fails TO so amend
the criminal law that capital punish
ment shall be the penalty for wlllful
and deliberate murder. Rev. Frye last
evening vigorously advocated the estab-
lishment OF the death penalty. and was
sustained IN his position by his congre-
CATION upon a vote taken al the conelu-
SION of his sermon. His statement that
murder had increased twenty-fold since
the death penalty .as abolished IN this
State IS startling admission that our
systam OF Imprisonment encourages
rather than ceters murderers IN the
commission OF their awful deeds. Sem
timeutslism should have no place IN
deciding this question. If man pre-
meditates your death, reader. and then
deliberately shoots you IN the back, or
creeps into your chamber at midnight
and cuts your throat, would you have
hun made pampered pet of prison re-
form methods? Or would you demand
that his life also be taken to requite the
wrong? Itisvery easy TO speculateanda adj
wise when another Is the victim, but when
your own wife or child is butchered,
your sentiments are pretty apt to as
sumo q different tendency. The mon
s.er who hacks his wife to death with
an axe, the tiend who outrages child
and then butchers her, the man-devil
who dashes out the brains of ms infant
should not be the objects upon whom
are bestowed flowers aud slckly sym
pathy. The gallows Is their fitting re-
ward. No punishment will abolish
murder altogether. The violent taking
OF hunlsn life is coeval with human ex-
isience and no remedy can be found 10
stop It. Hanging or electrocution will
check it; Imprisonment increases it i'll

Two Girls Wealthy and Fancy Free,

Ii isn't for husbands alone that some
young women so west. Witness tie
cases Of Kate Solt and Susan Schlutter,
who went TO Nebraska seven years ago
from Allentown, Pa. They took up
grants of government land, built huts
and proceeded to raise crops. Presently
a railroad came along and laid its tracks
right through the center Of their lots. A
town of 1000 inhabitants sprang up
there, which has become the county seat
and promises soon to be city. The girls
own the most valuable land in town, are
rich and think independence better than
husbands. Their names indicate that
they are of German descent, and it may
be that they have read the recent census
returns showing that more than 130, 900
married women work in the factories
and shops of Germany.
