MORRIS HANGED.
The Young Murderer Pays
the Penalty
OF HIS CRIME ON THE GALLONS

The Execution was Without Jar.
Dead in a Few Minutes After the
Drop FeII--The Town was Full of
People Drawn Hitler by a Morbid
Curiosity.
Frank. Morris yesterday suffered
death in the county Jail at Union
town for the murder of Bernard
Loker. The trap was sprung at i;43
and Morris was pronounced dead in
twelve minutes. According to the
physicians the drop dislocated the
yertebra of the neck and Morris was
rendered unconscious. A few seconds
after he fell his arms and legs were
raised up only once, then stretched
out limp. There was no other mo-
tion of the body except slight
twitching of the muscles. Death was
painless.
At 1:3o Sheriff Chalfant and Deputy
Sheriff Jones entered the cell where
Morris and his spiritual adviser, Rev.
George J. Gongaware, were engaged
in prayer in preparation for the end.
AT 40 the procession formed in the
cell and began the march to the gal
lows. Sheriff Chalfant and Mr..
Gongaware headed the procession.
Next came Morris and Sheriff Ed.
Hoover, of Somerset, and behind them
Deputy Sheriff p. A. Johns. Morris
walked with a firm step.
As Deputy Sheriff Johns was about
to pull the black cap over Morris
face the latter said he had few words
to speak before he died. The cap was
taken off and Morris addressing him
self to Sheriff Chalfant said: 81 wish
10 thank you for your sympathy; / bid
you all good bye, ! know | am going
to meet my God" Sheriff Chalfant
then sprang the trap and the poor
wretch swung into eternity. The
execution was done so quickly that
the spectators did not realize what
had happened till after the trap was
sprung. Six minutes after the trap
was sprung Sheriff Chalfant requested

One of the most significant facts in
the whole campaign is the enumera-
ton of the people that are managing
the Republican campaign in New
York and Chicago. Millionaires, plu-
tocrats, and monopolists make up the
list. They have unlimited Doodle and
seem to have no fears as to its efficacy
as political argument. The Demo-
Gratis on the other hand have to call
for volunteer help In sending out their
documents. No host of salaried spell
binders are spreading their views.
But the common people are aroused
and are bending their best energies to
the dissemination of free silver truths
as labor of love. Which will pre-
vail, the people or the plutocrats, the
man or the dollar?
