RockLAND's STRONG YOUNG. MEN.
Successful Exhibition of the Y. M. G. A.
Gymnasium Glasses.
Especial to the Press.1

lRPOSA-e w
RoCKLAND, March 31.-The members
of the Young Mems Christian Associa-
tion gymnasium gave their third annual
exhibition in Farwell Opera House to-
Digit. Many new and catchy feats had
been introduced and, as whole, it far
exceeded the previous attempts. The
opening number of the programme was
Swedish drill, the class appearing in
Swedish uniform. This was followed by
vaulting in which the entire class partici-
pated. The parallel bar work, led by
Prof. j. A. R. Scott of Boston was un-
plause, particularly the hand balance of
Staples. Scott and Macomber also did
fine work. The Junior class, composed
of the younger members of the associa-
ton appeared twice in the programme
in wand drill and fancy marching, the
effect being very pretty. Magee, as usu-
al, won the high kick. Knowlton and
Magee doing superior work at jumping.
The pyramid club swinging, led by Prof.
Scott, was very neatly and prettily per-
formed. W. J. Nelson gave an exhibi-
ton of fancy club swinging which has
seldom been equalled by a professional
here. On the horizontal bar, Magee, Ma
comber, Wiggin and Staples did superior
work. The exhibition closed with pyra-
mids, principal among which were the
fan, arch, clothes horse and
squash. The members of the gymnasium
who participated, and who are not men
toned above are Messrs. Spear. Wiley,
Lee, Crocker, Pease, Keizer. Bird, Pierce,
Miller, Chase, Perry, Roosen, Porter,
Farwell, Hodgkins, Hills and Day. Prof
J. A. r. Scott, of Boston, who for sec
ond season officiated as physical director,
returns to his home tomorrow. The
success of the exhibition was largely due
to his painstaking skill.

A family living in Madrid has been
much annoyed the past winter by a
strange noise in different parts of the
house. Sometimes it was SO loud that
they were unable to sleep nights. After a
time they concluded that the house must
be infested with rats, and tried every de-
vice to secure them, but without results.
A certain corner of the house seemed to
be the headquarters, from which radiat-
ed all sorts Of noises. At last, worn out
from want of sleep and fear of ghosts,
the family grew desperate; and on going
to the outside of the house they tore
away the clapboards and board and be-
held, not rats. but little million of mice
| which ran in all directions. Over so of
them were killed before they could es-
cape.
Dr.. Young, secretary of the State
Board of Health, who has been confined

In the execution of Joseph L. Ticc,
the wife murderer, at Auburn yester.
day week, the New York capital punish-
ment law has completely vindicated its
trainers. There were none of the ex-
terror features Of unpleasantness which
were attributed TO earlier electrical exc
cutions, and which, though perhaps in
separable from first attempts. were
doubtless very much exaggerated in
drifting through devious channels to the
reporters. Since the abrogation of the
foolish clause which aimed to keep the
details of such executions secret and
mysterious, there has been little to criti-
else, and the execution of Tice has
demonstrated that the new method is
all that was claimed for it, The execu-
toner simply pressed the button and
the condemned man died instantly,
painlcssly and without struggle.
With the turning on Of the current he
simply ceased to live, and that was all.
At the solicitation of one Of the Jail
physicians, Tice had agreed to clinch
his right fist and open his left hand
after he had been fixed in the fatal
chair. If he retained any consciousness
after the stroke he was then to close his
left hand. He carried out the first part
Of the programme, but his left hand re-
manned open and there was no indica-
ton Of any effort to close it,
