Frederick Bayley Deeming was one OF
wretches in the history Of the worlds
crime. That part of his career which
led Immediately to his arrest, trial and
death at Melbourne began in Rainhill, a
suburb of Liverpool, on July q, 1891.
He then took lodgings under the name
of Williams at the Commercial Hotel in
that village and shortly began paying
court to Miss Emily Mather, whom he
subsequently married.
He rented Dinham Villa, on the out
skirts of the village, during his court
snip, and there received a woman and
four young children. who disappeared
shortly before his marriage to Miss
Mather, After the wedding on Septem-
Der % he and his wife took a short we'd
ding journey, and on October II they
sailed for Australia. They went to live
in a house in Windsor, a suburb of
Melbourne. There on December "a, nine
days after their arrival, he killed his
young wife and buried her under the
floor and then disappeared.
About ten weeks later, when new ten
ants were about to take the house, a pe-
culiar odor was noticed, and the floor
was taken up and the body of Mrs,
Deeming was found. Marks on her
head and neck showed that she had been
killed by blows. When this reached
Rainhill the police tore up the floor of
Dinham Villa, to satisfy their suspicion
that the woman and foul children who
%hadibeen seen there with Deeming might
have suffered The same fate as did Emily
Mather.
They found under the floors, which
Deeming himself had cemented, the
bodies OF the woman and children. The
woman was his wife, nee James, whom
he had married in England in 1881, and
the children were his own. Deeming
was caught near Perth, in Australia,
late in March, after he had advertised
through a matrimonial agency, and
had made arrangements to marry Miss
Rounsevell in Perth.
After his arrest and incarceration in
Melbourne, awaiting trial, more or less
evidence was found tending to connect
Deeming with dozens Of heinous crimes.
including those of Jack the Ripper,'i
and a man who knew Deeming in Hall
fax came forward with proof that Deem
ing while there had written to the Ed
doves woman, one of the Whitechapel
victims. The exact truth of the
charges was not and never will be as
certained az Deeming was tried, con-
victed, sentenced and hanged for the
killing OF Emily hather only.

His Conduct a Complete Surprise to
AII-Doubt as to the T%ruthfulness of His
Autobiography--History of His Grimes.
MELBOURNE, May 23.-Frederick Bay
ley Deeming was hanged one minute af-
ter 10 O'Clock this morning. Seventy
reporters and physicians gathered in the
prison yard TO witness the execution,
and in front of the outside wall thou
I sands upon thousands waited from @
o'clock this morning to watch the black
flag and wait for the signal that all
was over.
When Deeming was led into the yard
and up TO the gallows, everybody was
surprised to see that he was not chained
as had been expected. He walked I'M
steadily between the guards and several
times tottered as if about to fall. His
face was ashen and he shook like a man
with the palsy. Several times when
the chaplain spoke to him encouraging
ly in an undertone, Deeming parted his
lips to reply but uttered no sound.
He seemed to be stupehed by his ap-
preaching death. When his arms were
pinioned he wavered, and would have
fallen had he not been caught by the
Warden. at first he shook his head
when his last opportunity TO speak was
given him. Then he rallied from his
sUupor and with a strong effort called
out;
Lord Jesus, receive my spirit"
He tried to say more and stood with
his mouth half open, but no words

knees knocked together, and he would
have collapsed had ne not been support
ed until he was swung into mid-air. He
died without a struggle, and almost in
stantly. The body, after being cut
down, was taken in charge by the prison
physician, who will superintend the
post-mOrtem examination into the struc-
ture Of the skull and brain.
While preparations were making to
take him out to the scaffold he became a
pitable figure, He cringed and covered
in a corner of his cell, first taking down
his bible and then throwing it from him,
nuttering to himself and then speaking
loudly and incoherently to the chaplain.
When this was stopped his mind appar-
entity sunk into "A stupor. He made one
or two attempts TO speak and then re-
Taxed from all effort, allowing himself
to be ball led, half carried from the
building. The chaplain said suisse
guently that IN all his experience he had
not seen u mere broken creature.
Mr.. Lyle, Deeming's lawyer, says he
has not decided what to do with Deem
ing's autobiography. He has not yet
had time to read much of the manuscript
and what he has read has let him TO
think that it has few claims to being a
truthful narrative. The spelling and
writing are bad, he says, and there is
evidently so much incoherent philoso-
phizing in the work that he fears nobody
will be willing to undertake the 6nan-
cial risk Of publishing it. The result of
the post-mortem examination of Deem
ing's brain will not be known probably,
for several DAYS.

This impression, the Court said, was
greatly strengthened on reading authorities
on the subject. He reviewed number of
treatises on the subject. In conclusion ne
said his belief was that the preponderance
of testimony was that the defendant was in
sane. Had he the power he would sentence
him to imprisonment for life, but he was
not willing, with his opinion as to the facts,
to sentence him to death. A concluding
sentence said that this opinion was written
over nine months ago, and, after full con-
sideration, he had been unable to come to a
different conclusion. 4 new trial would
therefore be granted.

A VEGETABLE COMPASS.
A Curious Plant Which Guides Traveller,

A Curious Plant Which Guides Travellers
on the Plains.
The compass plant grows in the
prairies of Western North America,
and, as its name indicates, is of great
value to the wanderer. 1t is dwarf
variety of the osler, is perennial, attains
usually height of three feet six inches,
and has head of yellow flowers. The
help it renders the traveller arises from
the fact that the long leaves at the base
of the stem, which are placed, not fiat
as in plants generally, but in vertical
position, present their edges north and
south. The peculiar propensity of the
foliage of this plant is attributed to the
fact that both surfaces of it's leaves dis
play an equal receptivity for light. All
the other known varieties of its class
are characterized by the presence on
the lower surface of their leaves of
from twice to thrice as many respira-
tory vessels as are contained on the up
per surface, which is therefore the
most sensitive of the two to the inf1u-
ence of light. But both surfaces of the
compass plant are clothed alike, with
an epidermis exceptionally receptive of
light; and the same instinct of it's
leaves that prompts them to require an
equal distribution of light upon either
surface causes them to assume verti-
cal position, and to point their edges
due north and south. Travellers on
dark nights are said to feel the edges of
the leaves, TO ascertain the points of
the compass, when no means are avail
able for helping them on their way

Farm buildings receive little .atten-

high price of lumber here had much to

buildings can be built cheaper now,
and q farmer cannot afford to do with
out barns and cribs, besides sheds.and
other necessary buildings. A pretty,
ornamental building is the chicken and
bee house combined illustrated. 1t is
square house with a queer, peaked root,
the caves jutting over the edge of the
upper part. 1t is nicely finished and
painted and is an addition to hand
some place. 1t is two stories high. The
upper story is filed with bee hives, and
has numerous windows which are
closed in winter, but open to the door
in summer. The lower story or chicken
house is divided into two parts by par
tition. 1t is gust high enough to allow
person to stand erect. The roosts
and nests are in one part The former
are very low and can easily be removed
for cleaning. The nests are in rows
against the wall and are protected by
wide boards over them as shown in the
engraving. The second room is the
home of small chicks and their moth
ers. 1t contains coop made of Stats
in which are troughs of food that the
young chicks alone can get. A fight

Few farmers have "a place for every

an acquaintance has an implement

one side of the barn. In it are stored
the buggy, carriage, wagon and farm

are gathered up and put here.
