PARIS, July ll.-Ravachol, the am
archist, murderer and thief was exc
cuted this morning. He was awakened
at $40 o'clock by jail officials at Mont
Brisson, and informed that the day Of
his execution lad arrived. The con-
demned man assumed an air OF cynical
Indifference and when the minister OF
prison was offered to him he refused to
accept and broke ont into strong In
yectiye against religion. In some way
the knowledge that, this notorious
criminal was to be put to death this
morning became known and noisy
and excited crowd gathered about the
place where the guillotine was set up
eager to see the end OF the man who for
n time by his dynamite outrages ter
rorized Paris,
The approaches to the scaffold were
guarded by lines OF troops who kept the
way clear for the condemned man and
the executiouer's party.
Ravachol was brought out OF the pris.
on in closed van. Though he could
not be seen he could be heard uttering
blashplemous cries.
The van passed through tho lines OF
silent troops and drew up near the spot
where the instrument of death had
been erected. As Ravachol descended
from the van silence fell upon the
crowd. Once alongside the gutllotlne,
the prisoner was seized bv the assis-
tants OF NJ. Deibler, the executioner,
who, with the celebrity attained by long
practice, soon bound him hand and foot.
His elbows, were drawn back behind
him and bound together, his shirt was
opened at tho neck and turned down
and in o moment his unresistin9 form
was pushed upon the sliding plank that
carries the body forward in reclining
position, so that the neck is directly an-
der the knife. Just as he was sliding
forward Ravacho shouted: Il have
something to say" Deihler paid no
attention whatever to this, but pro-
ceed to let tho knife drop. Just as the
heavy blade started on its fatal Journey
Ravachol shouted "Vive Ia Republi-
oue," and second later his severed
head was lying in the basket placed in
front OF the guillotine to receive 1t. Al.
ter the morbid curiosity OF the crowd
had been fully satisfied by seeing the
end OF Ravachol, they slowly dispersed.
There wos not single incident among
the crowd worthy Of note. There is
general feeling OF reiiot, now that this
depraved villain has at last had justice
meted out to him.
