Fastidious Hayward.

Harry T. Hayward who is now await
ing the date of his execution, in the
county jail, does not relish the idea OF
being hanged with second hand scat
fold and rigging. He has read in the
papers, that the machine likely to be
ased upon him is a very plebian con-
trivance, manufactured somewhere in
the backwoods, and traded about from
the family of one sheriff to another,
until its record is full of worm holes
and bad odor. Mr.. Hayward thinks
that he should at least be given new
scaffold. and in this he will be accom-
nodated, for Sheriff Holmberg does
not purpose to have any old time relic
serve him in such an important matter.
Hayward has given the sheriff in
struction in regard to testing the rope.
He wants the sheriff to test it with a
good weight.
Il would prefer live one, he said,
land would suggest Blixt as good one
10 test it on.''
As the Blixt idea was out of the ques-
