DIR. Wright. by the way, was the
chairman Of the appropriation commit
tee and in the afternoon inst before the
debate commenced and without a sns.
picion that Mr.. Crosby was so voluble q
gentleman, he announced that he was
ready to report. After Mr.. Crosby had
taken the floor and begun 10 expand.
the speaker suggested that the appre.
priation bills had better be turned IA.
Chairman Wright in he meantime had
got a tip and thinking to interposH
something between Mr.. Croeby's org
tory and midnight announced that the
appropriation committee was not SO fan
along as it had been; 1T YVES not re ady
to report.
Then the food Of eloquence was
turned loose and general regret was
expressed that the appropriation mat
ter had not been taken in out of the
wet.
The only way out OF the impending
situation seemed to be an extra ssion
which could oe called only BY permission
from Washington. To the clerks, type
writer's, doorkeepers, pages, sergeant
at al ms, ianitort, variOus other persons
and the territorial government Itself,
the prospect grew more dismal as ME.

THERE is in Chicago club composed of young women who have made up their minds that. despite ridicule, they will when they attempt horseback riding, do as the men do, ride astride. Fortunately, in this part of the world, and generally in largely populated localities. the number of women riders is very small, and is not likely to increase. In addition, the horse, women of the past and of to-day belong to a class that will not take kindly to the ad- vised straddling of a horse An argument in favor of the proposed new style of rid ing is that the side saddle style of riding is calculated to twist tie spine of the rider. And yet, until within few months, horse back riding by women was always consid- cred as being In every way conducive to health Such thing as spine-twisting was never heard of till of late. But this is a progressive as we'll as an inventive age therefore it need not surprise us that this latest announcement has been made.

 "DEAR SIRS-We very much regret that Harvard, for reasons which are satisfac- tory to that university, feels unwilling to join us in accepting the joint challenge of Oxford and Cambridge to Harvard and Yale for 8 match in track athletics in the United States this autumn.
 The action of Yale in response to your challenge is as follows:
 We accept the challenge upon the con- dition that the three mile run Ca race which is unknown at our universities) be dropped from the list of events as propos- ed in your letter; that the English team and the Yale team be each represented by two competitors in each event, and that the teams be composed of men who shall have been eligible to compete-the Eng Hshmen in the Oxford Cambridge match of this year and the Yale men in the Har- vard-Yale match of this year.

FIRST SHOCK KILLED.
Physicians Agree That Dr. Buchanan Was
 Killed Instantaneously.


 Killed Instantaneously.
 SING SING, July 2.-With two electric contacts consuming not over minute Dr. BuchaAan was put to death in Sing Sing prison. Like all the others who have. pre- ceded him, he went to death calmly and did not say word in the death chamber. The only appearance of fright or weak ness was the fact that he closed his eyes when he entered and did not open them again. -u ..--
 Two contacts were made, but all the physicians and electricians claim that the second contact was merely precautionary, and that the victim died instantly. There were no burns and no unpleasant features, and every physician present declared the execution q success. The body has been claimed by friends and the case will go down into history as cause celebre.
 In view of the fact that sensational re- ports of the second contact were sent out the opinions of all the physicians present except Dr. Van Giesen's statement were obtained, the consensus of which was that death came at the first contact and was immediate and painless. The autopsy revealed that all the blood had been driv- en from the heart by the contact and the air from the lungs. The following are the interviews:
 Dr. Sheehan, Health Officer of Catskil In my opinion death was instantaneous and painless. There was no blunder, and the first shocked killed. The second was for precaution.
 Dr. O'Sullivan, New York-I agree on that statement.
 Dr. Kelly, Mount Vernon-The first contact killed.
 Dr. Irvine, Sing Sing-The execution was success.
 Dr. Sullivan, Passaic, N. J. I believe death was instantaneous.
 Dr. Morrell, Yonkers-Death was in- stantancouS
 The body of Buchanan was taken from Sing Sing last night by New York under takers to be prepared for burial They said they came at the request of friends in New York.

Mrs. Bennett and her two chill dren-Homer, years old, and Lotta, aged 12-lay upon the bed. The children were dead, and the mother was in the agony of a deadly poison.

Some time ago he pardoned out of jail \ young man who had been sentenced to a long term of imprisonment for embezzle- ment from a newspaper which had em- ployed him to make collections, and ac- companying the pardon was a letter from the governor in which he stated that the man became calloused to crime through association with his employers, and was for that reason entitled to executive elem ency.
