Dannemora, N. Y, April IA. = The
eighth electrocution took place in the
death chamber of Clinton prison Tues

accompanied to the chair by the vii
lage priest and his lips moved in prayer

all previous ones, was successful in
every particular.

relopment a new and exceedingly
strong oak chair was made for the oc-
casion. After the autopsy the remains
We're buried in quicklime in the prison

The Saturday Gazette sends out an
extra, Monday the Is, giving the de-
tails of a most brutal murder in that
county on Sunday in which Herman
Book murdered Miss Augusta Bartz
and seriously wounded Michael
Bartz a farmer residing three miles
from New Hampton and his SOC Mike
aged about fourteen years. 1t appears
that the wife of Book who was tie
daughter of Bartz had commenced
proceedings for divorce for which he
sought to take her life having once
before attempted to shoot her for
which he laid in jail for IA time. As
Bartz, son and daughter were re-
turning from church they saw Book
coming when they were in half mile
OF home with a shot gun on his
shoulder. He passed them and mis-
taking Miss Battz for his wife dis
ing her in the breast and throat, the
shot started up the team so the second
shot perforated her back and
shoulders scattering, shot striking the
father and son injuripg them some
what seriously and the daughter fatal
". The person who did the shooting
fled across the fields, physicians and
the sheriff were summoned the former
to care for the injured the latter to
chase down the murderer who had
come to the Jail and was behind the
bars when the sheriff arrived there.
A more deliberate brutal murder was
never perpetrated.

The management of the G. Fl. & d.

tive power and heavy equipment, have
decided to adopt a lighter equipment

populated territory, by calling to its
aid electricity, and a deal was consu-
sumated in this city yesterday, by
which the Cincinnati, Hamilton &
Dayton Railway becomes the owner.
by purchase, Of the street railway lines
OF Middleton, Ohio.
The @. II. & d. Ry. Co. assumes con-
troll at once, and will make immediate
connection between the street car tracks
and the railway. Through cars will
be operated from all parts of the city
with electricity as the motive power.
The most modern equipment, motors
and cars will be put or this line In O
short time, and q very low schedule of
fares will be adopted, and every effort
put forth to give the travelling public
an electric service which can not be
excelled anywhere in this country.
In a short time the electric service
will be extended south of Hamilton to
Cincinnati, thus notwithstanding it's
suburban business, which is the heav-
lest any line has running out of Gin
cinnati. The c. H. & d. Ry. have In
view, in this connection, the building
up of the suburban villages stretching
along the Mill Creek Valley.
The action of the Cincinnati, Hamil-
ton q Dayton Railway In this matter,
which insures an electric service be.
tween Cincinnati, Hamilton and Mid.
dletown far superior to any which can
be afforded by a line built for that pur-
pose because OF the fact that this rail-
road has a much more solid and smooth
roadbed than could be built for the
exclusive use Of an electric service,
will probably result in discouraging
the investment OF much larger sums Of
money by the competing lines through
territory where there Is not business
enough for more than one such road.
