signs of fear are in a complete |
or normal condition of con
seriousness. They must reach
some sort of physical and men
tai stage that the doctors fail
to write about. When it comes
right to the threshold death is
not much of an affair after all,
but the class who are con
demned to execution does not
include many men capable OF
entertaining this calm view of
existence. Then it is clear that
the sensebilities of these crimi-
mails are largely suspended.
Even Charles Miller, the "boy
murderer" went bravely to
his death at the age of l6,
When 10 he had killed two
young men. Miller had an
almost mature mind, but that
it was anything like normal as
he walked to his fate with
out wavering, is absurd to
suppose. OF two other cases
that came under the observa-
ton of the writer the central
figures were full grown men.
They walked to the scatfold

one of them looked around for
the last time. He smiled and
cheerfully babe goodbye to a
number of acquaintance. This
was in a small western town.
After the man was dead they
laid him out on a bench i'll the
jail corridor. The sports Of the
town filed past this bier and
touched the hands "for luck. "
His hands were pulled and blue
and so was his face and there
was a red streak around his
neck.
In spite of the cholera scare
and the consequent business
depression, (which by the way
we consider all nonsense, we
should not be alarmed at this
little outbreak, but brace up,
we sold a bicycle on Saturday
and have had a number of calls
and inquiries for our Monarch
and Tribune wheels. Riding
in the open air on a wheel is
an invigorating and healthful
exercise, and a great preventa-
tive of diseases. Our wheels
have taken a firm hold upon
the people of the islands, and
it is the popular and common
thing to ask a man on a whee
us this Monarch or Tribune
don't you like them, are they
not the best wheels 2" This
popularity must mean that
these bicycles are superior ii
quality and price to other
makes and hence people talk
about what they know to be
the best.
The Honolulu Fire Depart
ment has been furnished with
the celebrated ball nozzle t.
