a brother older than he who was a
local champion, the child was early
initiated into the mysteries of chess,
When twenty-three years old he won
second prize in an International match
in Europe, and then, coming to Amer
lea, played succession of games with
the picked men of all the clubs in the
vicinity of New York and won every
game played, making an unprecedent-
ed record, He gave Pillsbury the
hardest tussel at Hastings and his
friends say he is still the superior OF
the American. Certainly his record
of victories and the brilliancy of his
play have pills led him among the
lights in the chess world. He is a
dashing player, differing from Stein
itz, the former champion, in that he
seems to see his moves intuitiyely
nearly always beating out the clock
on each move.

Minneapolis, Dec, Soy. Clough
Saturday afternoon sentenced Harry
Hayward, the murderer of Catherine
Cling, TO be hanged Dec. H. Hayward
heard the news OF his doom from
Sheriff Holbergs lips. The prisoner
evinced no signs of breaking down,
but, on the other hand repeated the
awful excavations against his brother
Adry which of late have been the only
indications that he appreciated the Sc
robustness OF his position.
We'll, Harry" said the sheriff, Il
have come to tell you the governor
has signed your death warrant and
fixed It for next Wednesday"
That's did long time TO wait for
a railroad train" was the prisoners
ejaculation.
If your are in a depot ii Ii long

on the track for etel nifty. You have u
good many things te consider before

Here Hayward began to dictate a
statement to Jailer West in regard TO
the Jail breaking episode and other in
cidents OF his Jail life,
DR., Thaddeus Hayward was In his
fathers Office wher the news Of the
governors action was broken to
him. When asked II he was
surprised, the doctor said Il hardly

thing WAS 50 devillsh and the Internal
clamor for blood was so furious that

would come of the insanity matter.
The tragedy unfolds itself step by

1t is only the world. II is cruel and
unjust After all, what difference does
IL make?"
Harry Hayward's statement, taken
by Jailer West Ia somewhat incoher-
ent and decidedly bloodthirsty. 1t
starts out: "a short time is just as
good as longer time, and am as
ready now as ever shall be. had

visit him Mt his home in Norway. They
did so the same season and Cupid
quickly consummated the union. Hav-

turned to this country, and in the fall
of 1870 they were married again by &C.

the brides parents in Madison. This
was a marked event in social life at
the stae capital. The wedding feast
was prepared in Chicago, and was
served in solid silver and cut glass
