The Braggart Shows His Innate Cowardice
He Goes to His Reward.
WISE COURT HOUSE, Va. Sept. g.
Talt Hail. the notorious desperate,
slept but little last night and at
daybreak this morning he was wake
full and nervous. He was not defiant
or staggering as yesterday, but a child
ish. petulant coward He refused to
eat any food, but drank cup of coffee
and then called for whisky.
Father Lucl<ie entered the cell at an
early hour and remained with the
doomed man until the last minute.
The drop fell at 1887 p. m. Hall
died in seventeen minutes after the
drop fell. He made speech from the
scaffold. His neck was broken. No
attempt was made by his friends to
rescue
Talt Hall was one of the most noted
desperadoes in the district. He had
killed twenty people in the last ten
years and admitted having killed five.
The crime for which he was executed
to-day was the murder in cold blood OF

ATTEMPTED TRAIN ROBBERY.

Mysterious Tagging of a Missouri Pacific
Train.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Sept. "A bold
attempt was made last evening by train
robbers to hold up passenger train No.
4 of the Missouri Pacific railroad short
distance west of Lees Summit, but,
owing to the passenger train being late
and freight train No. 100 running on
No. As time, the robbers stopped the
wrong train.
AS the engineer in charge Of the en-
CINE drawing the freight train was
rounding the curve just beyond Lees
Summit, at point known as Dead
Mans curve, he observed a man stand
ing near the track tagging the train.
Suspecting that something was the
matter, as he was running on another
trains time, he reversed his lever and
brought his train to a standstill. AS
he did SO he saw the party who tagged
the train quite plainly, who Immediate
ly started on run for the woods. He
saw that the party had a revolver in
his hand and wore mask made out of
piece of dark cloth.
Just as the masked person got to the
edge of the woods, the engineer thought
that he heard others with him and
thinks that there were at least five men
In the party.
It flashed through his mind in an in
slant that they were train robbers and
had mistaken his train for the Missouri
Pacific passenger train, which was due
at Dead Mans curve at this time, and
seeing their mistake had taken to the
woods. He had an idea that the men
would not go far, but wonld make
another attempt to hold up the passen-
ger train when it came along.
The conductor of the passenger train
was notified to hold his train at the
Big Blue until further orders were re-
ceived and the freight conductor re-
turned to Independence where he made
up special train and taking City Mar
shall Hulse and posse of men proceeded
to the place where the attempt at rob
berry had been made in the hope that
the robbers would again flag the train
! and give them chance to capture them.

SHE is QUEEN.
Nancy Hanks Lowers Her Chicago Record
and Trots a Mile in 2:O5 IA.

Nancy Hanks Lowers Her Chicago Record,
aud Trots a Mile in e:O5 IA.
INDEPENDENCE, Ia, Sept. Nancy
Hanks, the queen of horsedom, added a
shining star to her crown yesterday,
when she trotted the world famous kite
track at this place in the unprecedented
time of 2:054, clipping two seconds Off
her Chicago mark made two weeks ago.
She was brought out at $50 o'clock, and
as soon as she was recognized in the
loop the cheering began. She looked
well and her superior condition was
easily discernible. She took her first
warming-up mile gently, being only
driven in jog. About o'clock she
was brought out again and received
with the same cordial welcome as be-
fore on the part of the spectators.
When she passed the stand this time
even the band stopped playing and
joined with the others in the applause.
A bow from Doble and they were away
to her quarters, followed by echoes of
the 5000 voices in the grounds
At just 5:15 they appeared on the
stretch again. This time the applause
was deafening. handkerchief and
parasols were waved; voices expanded
to their utmost; young and old and
everybod cheered. The old gray pater
forgot himself and let loose one of those
yells that were the pride of his boy
hood Even the old ladies contri buted
their quota to the general chorus.
Nancy's first quarter was gone in 80
seconds; the second quarter was but a
second slower, and this was gone under
a constant effort of her driver to talk
her back; 1:01 to the half was consid-
cred little too fast by Doble and he
coaxed her to slower gait for
the next quarter. The breeze be-
gins to strike her; it is a hard thing to
rate fast mile by quarters, and the
third flag is reached a second or
two slower than was intended, but
here Nancy was given her head
and she finished strong and in the face
of a northwest wind in Six seconds.
Another noticeable feature" says
Doble, ''was the condition of the mare
after her mile. Within fifteen minutes
after she reached her stall she was as
fresh and lively as young colt, and no
one would dream that she had made
| the greatest trial of her life"
'sOh, yes. the kite tracks are faster
than the regulation shape. How many
seconds would not say. But there is
not the shadow of doubt about it"

CAUSED MUCH CONCERN.

Transat1a ntic Steamships Fear Much Loss
Over the Presidents Order.
NEW YORK, Sept. 2.-The different
agents of the transatlantic steamship
lines were greatly excited over the first
tidings of the president having issued
an order for twenty days quarantine
against immigrant steamships.
The meaning of the order was not
clear and the agents did not know
whether it applied to steamers carrying
steerage passengers, or to all vessels
carrying cabin and steerage. It would
mean great financial loss either way,
but if 1t applied to the latter class they
saw disastrous condition of things in
it. The Inman line management have
decided to carry only the first cabin
and second cabin passengers from
Liverpool during September.

GEO. W. CURTIS decided early last
week to adopt homeopathic treatment,
and DIR. Reisig was called. From that
time Mr.. Curtis suffered little or
no pain, and during the list
few days he seemed very com
fortabley. The swelling did not dimin-
ish, but his family had hope, being
much encouraged by the cessation of
the pain. His condition was not thought
to be by any means critical. But three
days ago he began to sink rapidly. The
pain did not recur, however, and until
the end he seemed able to recognize
those around him.
The funeral services will be held FRI
day at the Curtis residence, and they
will be private.
Mr.. Curtis was born in Providence, 3.
L, 6s years ago. After attending q
school in Jamaica Plain, Mass, he re-
moved to New York with his father in
1889, and was placed in mercantile
Establishment as a clerk. Being by
nature better fitted for almost any other
occupation, it is not strange that he
was unhappy in that position. In his
novel, 'sTrumps," he has given enter
tanning sketches of his life as school
boy, but in his most genial moments he
could not endure a joke on his mercan-
tile experience.
Mr.. Curtis was an earnest advocate
of civil service reform In 1871 he was
appointed by President Grant one of a
commission to draw up rules for the
regulation of the civil service. He was
elected chairman of the commission
and of the advisory board in which 1t
vas subsequently merged, but resigned
later, owing to difference of views
between himself and President Grant
in regard to the enforcement of the
rules. He had served many years as
president of the National Civil Service
Reform society and at the recent meet
ing at Baltimore was reelected pres
