HANGED TODAY.
Charles Garrett, the Wife
Murderer, Executed.

LEBANON. Pa, May 7.-Charles Garrett
was hanged today at l1;1l in the Jail
yard One hundred persons witnessed
the execution. Death was due to strangu-
Iation. There was no scene.
The crime for which Charles Garrett
was hanged was the murder of his wife
on September 13, 1894. The murder was
one OF the most brutal and deliberate in
the country. Garrett had just
been released from jail after serv-
ing a three and half years sentence.
He called again to see his wife at the
home of Mrs. Gallagher. He came
again the following morning, but Mrs.
Gallagher tried to prevent him
from entering the kitchen. Walk
ing over 10 where his wife was
sitting, ne bent over her, pre-
tending to kiss her, but instead he drew
from his coat pocket a razor and cut his
wife's throat from ear to ear, almost
severing her head. The woman died in
lsss than five minutes and Garret escaped.
Garrett was captured in Marion, Ind,
on October IL, and the same month ad-
mitted the killing, saying he could not
bear to see his wife with another mans
child in her arms. He was subsequently
tried and sentenced to be hanged, Gov
ernor Pattison fixing today as the date oi
execution.

RATIFIED.
0IneyviIIe Strike Endorsed
by Textile Union.
Local Delegates Presented Facts Of
Situation to the Convention.
And It Was Voted to Make the Move
ment a National One.

The second days session OF the National
Textile Workers convention was called TO
order at promptly 8 o'clock this morn
ing.
The situation at Olneyville, which is
paramount to all other business that will
receive attention Of the delegates assem-
bled, was taken up for consideration and
the situation presented in an able manner
from the strikers standpoint by the rep
resentatives OF the local assem- blies.
The grievances OF every kind whatsoever
that have been recorded for the past few
weeks, since the Inauguration OF the
trouble, especially the wage question,
were discussed, and the conven-
tion voted to ratify and sane
tion the Olneyville strike and make
it one of national concern, each dele
gate TO return to his local union with the
story OF Olneyville and seek assistance
from every available source. There Will
be no~Senefits paid out from union funds
1t will be raised especially for the trouble
in the woolen and worsted industries in
Olneyville and put into the hands OF
general committee to disburse where most
needed TO support such help as remain
here. All who can obtain work elsew here
are to be urged to seek 1t at once, and
tfSns relieve 20 great extent the mem bers
who will remain to maintain the strike
here, and consequently require aid from
their fellow workmen in other manufac-
turing centers.
The decision OF the convention, IL ac-
cepted by those who are represented by
delegates in that assembly and the great
majority who have no affiliation with
| the union or any organization,
but who are forced into
idleness by the striking of others, means
a prolonged term of idleness in Olney-
| vile.
1t means an attempt on the part Of the
National organization to fight the manu-
| facturers TO finish.
1t means either concessions on the par,
| OF manufacturer and an increase OF wages
| given or the defeat and collapse OF the
| Textile Union of America as body o.
insufficient strength end standing tc
combat to a successful finish a combine
| of manufacturers.
1t means privation and want to many
families, financial loss to merchants {
long period of idleness during which
time a large amount of invested capita
will remain dormant without earning
any dividends.
| This is the situation that confronts th'
manufacturing center OF Olneyville.
Whatever the result, those who chanc'
to be affected will be obliged 10 accept Il
as best they can.
The convention adjourned at IL o'clock
At the afternoon session the member
considered the adoption OF politica

PHEBE'S SKILL.
A Professional ShopIifter in
Limbo.
Her Home Filled With Goods Sup
posed to Be Stolen.
The Police VIII Try to Find Owners
of the Property.

Phebe Narrow, from all accounts, is a
professional shopliiter OF no mean merits.
She was arrested by Detective Swan
the act OF transferring shirt
waist from under her cape to bag. She
had stepped into a doorway TO do it, but
the "eagle eye that never sleeps" was
looking. She preceded Mr.. Swan to
police headquarters and on the
way detached the tag which
was on the waist and dropped it; bat the
"eye" saw it aad the detective picked it
up. In Phebe's bag was a new dress and
it, too, had tag. These tags led
to the identity of the stores
where the articles came from and
this morning a bevy OF pretty sales
women and bright sslesmen, including
the buyers for the houses, identified the
pauy aud valued al Sl.25; and the dress,
1915, came from the Boston Store.
Phebe said her husband bought her the
the waist and she had tried 10 get him to
court TO clear her, but he did not show
up. Detective Parker explained that Mr..
Narrow il out on bail and is afraid
OF being surrendered by his bondsman,
try to get Narrow to court, bu. he wanted
the assistance OF the police and detec-
tives, and Judge Cooke said he might
have the whole force.
Incidentally, Mr.. Cohen, who also fur
nished bonds for Mrs. Narrow, at the same
time he bailed her hus band, they having
been charged with keeping @ nuisance on
Walker street, surrendered her to the
court The bail was $1,000 in each case.
To get back to the shoplifting, the waist
| case was continued till tomorrow morn
| ing, and Phebe was fined s15 and costs for
stealing the dress. She will eat supper at
| Cranston.
The detectives searched the Narrow
| apartments at 17S North Main street,
genteel variety store. There
were new books, evidently stolen, many
| pieces of valuable lace, several capes and
| dry and dress goods of various de-
! scriptions. 1t looks as if Pheb
| was an adept at the business, and all her
/ husbands testimony, IL he can be found
| will do her no good.
| Later Phebe sent for Mr.. Swan and said
| she would plead guilty to stealing the
waist. She was taken before the Judge
| who fred her s. and costs.
! The woman had a pretty shady reputs-
| tion in Fail River, where she was frequent
| ly in court for wrong doing. That she
| is n professional was shown by the cool
clever manner in which she conducted
! her case his morning.
| Her husband probably "skipped" and
his bondsmsn is kicking himself because
yesterday he got Narrow almost
! OUT TO Cranston, ostensibly tC
see Phebe, but her spouse "smelt
mouse" and would not 60 10 the jail.
II may be ungallant TO say SO, bu
Phebc is quite 40 years of age.

ORIGIN OF CANARlES.
A Ship From the Canary Islands Intro
duced Them to Italy.

About $50 years ago ship returning
from tho islands in the Atlantic, which
people then called the Fortunate isles, but
which were undoubtedly the Canaries,
went ASHORE on the coast of Italy near
Lcghurn. A cage of beautiful birds cap
turcd in these islands was broken, and the
birds wcro liberated. Through some ca
price they did not take refuge on the 1tal-
ian mainland, but went to the island OF
Elbc, where, in due time, they nested and
bred and increased in numbers Tho lthl-
fans discovered TINT they were admirable
singers and began to capture them ana
sell them in cages.
This gave rise TO traffic which soon
completely cleared the island of Elbe or
canary birds, SO that not one was left there
I'm a wild state. From that time the his
tory of the canary has been one OF perpet-
ual imprisonment and Of the transforma-
ton of his appearance and character. Ho
has become what may be called an artlil-
cial bird. Every nation of Europe has pro-
duced canary of n special type. In the
natural state OF Canaries, as they still exist
in the Canary islands and other Atlantic
islands, the birds are of a grayish green
or Ereenish brown color and are not re-
markablc for beauty, but they are such
energetic singers that they have been
known TO break the membrane OF their
throats in pouring forth their song.
Now and then the birds are taken in a
wild state in these islands and sold foi
good prices In Europe or America. But
tho ordinary canary Of commerce is the
offspring Of captive stock and has been
greatly modified by breeding. Canaries,
however, have been crossed with linncts,
nnchcs and other birds until their real race
Is uncertain. Canaries arc now known as
German, d" French, Belgian, Eng
lish, "Tyrolcse" and so on, according 10
the forms and colo-s that have been pro-
duccd I'm them. Tho Belgian canaries arc
sometimes eight inches long and arc re-
mnrkablo for tho elegance Of their form
and rich orange color.
French canarics are light in color.
Some canorics which arc entirely white
command high price The Germans and
Tyrolcsc, on the other hand, breed moro
for beauty of song than Of plurnago. Many
OF the birds have bccn trained by being
kept I'm tho dark in tho hearing Of the
nightingalcs TO initiate these wonderful
singers.
Tho Fngl'sh bird Is more remarkable
for plumagc than song. To be highly es-
tccncd IL must hayo head and body OF
bright orange, whilc its wings and tail
must bo black. 4 single wrong feather
will diminish the value of the bird. Exhi
| bitions OF canaries are regularly held IN
the Crystal palace, and no canary has
| chance of winning prize unless III b'

worthy of the love borne him by his
promised bride, George +. Watson came
to the determination to end the possi-
bility of union between him and his
sweetheart.
He made good this determination yes
terday afternoon by shooting himself
through the head at the home OF bis
brother in law, Jonas Sargent. At the
time OF his death Wilson was engaged to
be married to Miss Amy Minor, Q
wealthy young lady, living in Providencs,
X. /. He had known her ever since he
was boy, and had corresponded with
her ever since he came to San Francisco,
seven years ago. The death of the pa
rents OF Miss Minor resulted in
her receiving $50, 900 as her share of their
estate. She also had an income from the
estate after another deceased relative.
1t is believed by Mrs. Sargent, who
is a sister of Watson, that Miss
Minors wealth led him to think him
self unsuited to her, he being compare
tivtly poor. He thought that his living
single the 3S years of his life had untitled
him for the company OF any woman and
