Public Executions.

If hangings must be, then the mob
should be shut out absolutely from sec
ing them. Nothing more revolving or
demoralizing to humanity has been wit
messed recently than the behavior of the
spectators at a late hanging. Men gath
cred in numbers the night before the
hanging as if to acountry circus. Whis-
Ky was passed freely among them, and
they became drunk and made night hid
eous with their whooping and yelling.
They cut away fences and climbed trees
in order to get sight of the show in the
jailyard. They even smuggled whisky
to the guard who formed the watch, and
some of them became dead drunk too.
When the morning came and the pris-
oners were led to execution the mob
jeered and howled like demons. Some
Of the condemned suffered horribly be-
fore life became extinct. The blood
thirsty mob laughed in fendish glee and
cursed and sang and danced like demons
from sheol. Nothing more disgraceful
was ever witnessed in America. The
men and boys who gazed on that scene
will go through life henceforth with less
regard for human life and with more
calloused feelings toward human suffer
ing in any shape. 1t was with difficulty
they were kept from anticipating the le-
gal execution by taking the hanging into
their own hands. They will henceforth
be more dangerous members of the COM
munity for being unchecked in their con-
duct. that night and for being allowed to
witness that hanging.

Everybody will try to travel to Eu-
rope by the German lines if it is true
that they have adopted an absolutely
smokeless fuel, for the smoke and Gin
ders from ships tunnels are the worst
nuisance to deck promenaders on ar
ocean voyage. The Berlin Rauchlosever-
brennungsgesellschaft makes the fuel. It
ought to be able to make anything. Coal
dust is mingled with air by certain
kind of treatment, and the mixture is
used for firing furnaces. 1t is claimed
that by the use of this fuel there is
no smoke, neither any wear of boilers.
The heRauchloseverbrennungsgesellschaft
ought to have a fine show of its smoke

1t is to be hoped that the proposed in

pany will be carried through to the end,
and the disbursing agents of the company
be required to account for the way in
which every cent they paid out was ex-
pended. This will now be necessary in
view of the Panama scandal. The agents
of the company will doubtless welcome
as eagerly as anybody this opportunity
to show their countrymen that the bust

hands. We shall have no Panama scan

of the birthday OF the True Prophet and
the manner of it filled the spectators with
wonder and at times with horror The Mo

dag had been frightened by the sun. But
the guards and early risers in the grounds
were attracted by Il mighty hub6ub. All
dancing girls and their native attendants of
the bazaars were congregated III the reStau-
rant, attircd in their most gorgeous cos
tunes. Two lambs were brought into the
room by couple of black men and SlaUght-
cred in the presence OF the entire company,
while the WorshpcrS sang Il quaint song
and sank TO the floor in prayer. \ braZicr

door of the cafe. The blood of the lambs
was caught in earthcn dishes and placed
near the DraZIcr.
After half an hour of prayer. during which
time nearly all the villagers remained pros
trate on the floor the women gathered about
the dishes of blood and dipped their hands
in the warm red fluid. Some Of the women
ran to the nearest wall and placed their
blood heSm1ared hands against the wood

fingers outlined in red. Then they rushed

This peculiar ceremony occupied the besJ
part of an hour and was intended to typ

The greatest part Of the forenoon was
occupied by the women in penarce and
self-torturo. Three of them picked up live
Goals and threw them across their bare
bosoms. 50 severely did one of them burn
herself that the odor of scorched flesh
could be detected for ten minutes after
ward Other women threw themselves on
their faces or knees on the hard floor. One
woman ran swiftly at the wall of her room
and hurled herself head foremost against
It, So seriously did another injure herself
that she was taken to the hospital in an
ambulance. This display of fanaticism
among the girls lasted until noon. Then all
care was thrown aside and the day was
given over to feasting and dancing.

The Mistake of Boy Train Wrecker Out



Wichita, Kan, June 30.-The highway
man who attempted to rob the Santa fe
passenger train at Wharton yesterday, and
who was captured by Conductor Gleason
and put in Jail here, is Il boy only sixteen
years old lie told the sheriff last night
that he met Il gang of four men at Ten
Mile Flats, i'll the Chickasiiw nation, one
day and they told him of a scheme to rob
the Santa Ee train, and told him that he
had to help or pay the penalty OF death.
They told him he must go on the Santa Ee
train on June Both, and when it approached
Black Bear creek he must cover the con-
ductor and stop the train, and that they
would do the rest. All this work was i'm
posed on him under bullet ORDERS as he
calls 1, and he was afraid to disobey. lie
had made Il mistake of one day i'll carrying
out his orders. He thought yesterday was
the Both and carried out his part Of the
programme. He said the leader of the
gang, under whose orders he was working,
Bill Dalton. Two of the others were
Bill Anderson and Arthur Gage, while the
fourth man was Il native of Fort Gibson,
whose name he did not know. If his story
is true the other robbers are due ut Black
