On Monday the 10Th Of June at 9.15
P, M. Frank Nelson was hung. He
had murdered a negress and child at
Fort Grant last July. At the October
term, Of the same year, he was in
dicted and when he was arraigned he
waived his rights and pleaded guilty
Judge Sloan, who was on the bench at
he time did not want to entertain
the plea surrendered him back to Jail
to reconsider his plea. The reason
for this was the judge preferred to
have a jury pass on the evidence.
The next morning Nelson was
brought into court and persisted in
entering the plea OF guilt. But be-
fore the court would pronounce judg-
ment for murder in the first degree
called all or the witnesses in the case
and heard the testimony. After that
the plea was entered, judgment was
rendered and the sentence of death
assessed, and the time December 18th
1890 was fixed. Owing TO the mud
died state the grand jury law was
placed in by the discovery of the ''poc-
ket veto law" he received five re-
prives, Two for % days; one for SO
and n for 10 days. The last re-
prieve was granted for the purpose Of
having a petition considered asking
the Governor to commute the death
penalty to life imprisonment, The
Governor refused to disturb the jndg-
ment Of the court and last Monday an
unusual day for legal executions he
paid the penalty of his crime. Father
Geldorf administered religious consol-
alton to him and baptized him into
the Catholic church. After he had
made his peace with God he dressed
himself and patiently awaited the
hour to arrive. In mean time he
chatted pleasantly with different ones
and did not seem to haYe any dread
Of the awful doom in store for him.
Deputy Sheriff Olney asked him to
axe a drink Of whiskey he replied,
II am fully braced and do not need
any spirits" He was afterwards adj
vised to take a little |stimulant, but
said: mo, l am through with whis-
key in this world"
He assembled the gallows with a firm
step and proceeded Immediately to
speak to those present. He said that
he had made his peace with God; that
he hoped everybody would forgive
him; that he realized the enormlty Of
his crime and deserved his fate. In
speaking Of the testimony OF a witness
in the case he said: "Mrs, Chapman
told the truth when she testified that
the woman / killed begged for her
life" lie then knealt and repeated
the Lords prayer and when he arose
tears were in his eyes, which he start
ed 20 brush away with his sleeve, but
Jallor sGookdin handed him a hand
kerehief. He wiped his face and step
ped into position on the trap, lie was
bound, the moose adjusted on his neck
and the black cap placed on his head,
and US II was being drawn down he
turned towards the room where Belle
Blakely is confined, with a smile on his
face said farewell, Belle" Sheriff
Ofney sprung the trap and in a few
moments he was pronounced dead.
His body was turned over to the
priest for burial, 1t was said that a
mass was read W. his remains and
his grave was Illuminated with wax
tapers all night. So endeth a chapter
in the criminal history Of Graham
county.

As regards dust storms LQrdsburg
had a couple this week which made
the citizens think they they we're liv-
ing in Deming. Monday about five
o'clock there came up the irst east
wind seen in town for a good while
and It succeeded in raising lots Of
dust, and the wind was pretty brisk.
Tuesday evening at about the same
hour q young hurricane came down
from the north, and gathered up all
the loose adobe dust in the valley to
bring into town. When the wind got
its work in on the town it blew from
all directions so that II there was a
knot hole on any side of a house the
wind was sure to sift the dust in.
After the worst of the wind was over
there came up a little rain which set
tied what there was left Of the dust.
There was some rain during the night
and it is confidently hoped that dust
storms for the season are over.

in England, and which is being utilized
extensively by ladies going to the queens
drawing rooms, is a small posy. holder.
This device is so constructed as to fasten
on the door panel of the carriage and to
slip into small socket attached to the
woodwork with screws. The slant of
the holder throws the flowers forward,

spike is protected from injury. The
flowers are found to keep much fresher
when freed from contact with hot

strain of holding bouquet for hours in

How She Resisted Arrest.

They are telling story that the tax
collector down in New Gloucester few
days ago felt compelled to arrest a young
woman for non-payment of taxes, and
that he attempted to make the arrest
when on the highway. The young wom-
an being in excellent health, by no
means fragile or of insignificant avoirdu-
pois, sat right down and refused to
make any exertion to helf herself. The
tax COLLECTOR is not giant, and he
couldn't lift her. 1t is not recorded how
hard he lifted, but he didn't move her.

Early Mining Regulations.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 16.-From whom did
the early miners in California derive their
rights to hold and work their claims secure
from intrusiona This is question that is
often asked, and which Twill try to answer.
l believe the rules observed in those days
were the best and simplest in the world.
They were in fact purely democratic ip
principle and practice. Their general plan
and scope may be outlined briefly in this
way: The discoverers of gulch, fat or
bar claim, knowing they would not be sus-
tanned in organizing trust and in trying
to monopolize ground to work for years
to amass large fortunes while others were
seeking places where they could earn gold
by honest twork-comprehended the neces-
sity of doing as they would wish to be
done by.
Therefore the first man or men selected
their choice of the ground, denominating
SO many feet, constituting bounds that de-
fined each individual claim. The next fol
lowed the precedent of the discoverer, and
SO ON until the space favorable for gold
was all occupied. That became a district,
and the size of the first claim was adhered
to through the whole district afterward.
1t was usual to put in writing, and post up
at some prominent place, the extent of the
district and the sizes of claims each was
entitled to hold. And woe be to the man
that attempted to hold or smuggle more
than provided by the general law. Thus,
proving himself unwilling to abide by
uniform conditions, he was liable to gen
eral edict of expulsion. Taking gold from
the claim of another was likely to be fol-
lowed by summary expulsion from the dis
trict
Such were the ways the early miners Sc
cured and held rights. They were fair and
just for all honest men, and others were com
PEELED to nbide by them. Very few appeals
were sought, because justice was supreme
and necessary for the welfare of all. Law
boss and lawyers were not needed Many
OF the latter were knights of the pick, pan
and shovel, and did good work as pioneer
miners. FoRTY-NINER

How They Cure rheumatism in Penn

Mr.. J. F. Meighan, Pittsburgh cigar
dealer, awoke one morning with an at
tack OF rheumatism in his right arm.
Working around the store during the
forenoon made it worse. By noon the
pain was go severe that he could not
raise his hand to his head and had to
carry his arm in sling. One of his GUS
toners, on learning the facts, went
across the street to Z. E. Heck's drug
store, and at his own expense procured
bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm
and persuaded the cigar dealer to try it.
1t eased the pain and reduced the swell
ing so that by the next morning he
could use his arm, and by the second
morning was entirely well. This is only
one OF the many severe cases of rheuma-
tism that have been cured by this valu-
able remedy. 80 cent bottles for sale
