EXECUTED.

Chas. Hart, the Murderer and Mutilator
of the Goode Children, Dies on the Gal
lows.
COLUMBUS, O., April 1e,-Chas. Hart
was hanged shortly after midnight in
the state prison for the murder of
Elsie and Ashley Goode, children z
and years old respectively. in Pauld-
ing county, on November 4. 1894.
Hart was brought to the scaffold
from the death cell at 1908 and was
dropped at 1910, and in 13A minutes
was pronounced dead. He was cool
and only said, as he glanced at the
crowd below, "Good-by" to one Of the
guards.
He watched the work of binding his
body with cords without even more
than an ordinary interest, and, as the
cap was placed over his head and he
was given a chance to say his last, he
remarked: II am not guilty of the
charge"
It was a remarkable quiet execution
from q mechanical standpoint, as
Hart hardly made motion after the
drop.
The. Goode children were gathering
nuts in the woods, and Hart, who was
only ls years old, and neighbor,
Joined them. According 10 his own
confession he killed the boy and then
assaulted the girl, afterward killing
her, and burned the bodies in q log
heap, having first dismembered them
to conceal their identity.
Hart's first confession was made to
Detectives Klein and Hart, of Cleve-
land, who were placed in the Jail as
fellow prisoners He implicated David
Merritt, a colored man. In a subse-
quent confession he appropriated all
the credit to himself. In this confes-
sion, made to Chaplain Wright, of the
penitentiary, he duplicates others,
whose names the chaplain refuses to
| disclose
Thursday petition asking that
| Hart's sentence be commuted to life
| imprisonment was received at the gov.
ernor's Office.
| Hart was baptized in the Methodist
faith late Thursday afternoon by the
chaplain. He manifested a certain de-
gree of interest. The boy listened
without any degree of emotion, but
the conviction that he was doomed
seemed to be at last forced through his
darkened mind. At s:45 he was taken
from the annex and placed in the death
cell, and a watch placed over him.
| None of his friends came to see him
die. His father visited the prison sew.
| eral weeks ago, but since that time his
family has taken little apparent inter.
est in him. They live near Poe, Ind.
where they were driven by the indig
nant citizens of Paulding county. Hart
requested the warden to ship his body
to his late home for burial

that the criticisms that has appeared in
the Christian Secretary have not been
too severe in view of the facts. We
have said nothing that has not been
said on the floor Of the house and in
substance by the press and the people
of the state. We have made no state
ments that we should wish to recall,
and challenge the senate to make an
open investigation before a proper COM
mittee or in the courts of the state.
Your committee has a grand oppor-
tunity and full powers to vindicate the
good name of Connecticut by thor
ough investigation Of alleged charges
of bribery that have been made during
the past six years. We are sincerely
anxious to know the facts. Like other
papers we have given the news and
given our comment on the same.

been true, but if it can be shown that
our statements are untrue, upon
proper investigation, we shall make

Christian ministry of Connecticut is
and what it is for and what were its
motives. I did not open the question,
but as said you have opened the ques-
ton of the whole relation of the pulpit
to public morals.
Nevertheless / do not object to your
calling it irrelevant. You can dispose
of it as you please and you can reaffirm
the opinion so jauntily expressed in the
senate on the 9th Of June that the
preachers don't know what they are
talking about and are beneath the no
tice of legislators.
With this simple statement leave
my case in your hands and am ready
to receive without protest at the hands
of the Connecticut senate a rebuke for
the outcome of my patriotic purpose or
a penalty for my crime.

it must have lain hidden there for con-

that of lawyer or client cannot now
be ascertained, or it may even be an os-
