der of Dick Johnson, the champion prize
fighter of Montana. Contrary to all

dying with smile on his face. Last

his mistress, Mrs. Bowhay, was refused
admittance to the jail, and when his
wife called to bid him farewell it was
then thought he would collapse entirely.
But good nights sleep built hiw up
and he arose at 7 this morning, ate a
hearty breakfast, drank considerable
beer and whisky, and with cigar ia his
mouth, he said II am ready"
Promptly at 10 Sheriff Jurgens read
the death warrant and told him to be
ready In fifteen minutes. When they
came for him, he said "The jig's up" and
made jesting remarks while being pin
Toned in his cell. While en- route to the
gallows he bade hearty goodbye to
the prisoners as he passed the cells, and
walked with steady gait, noddiAg and
smiling to those he knew in the crowd.
Upon reaching the galows, he said he
forgave all. The drop fell, and death
came by strangulation. He was dead in
eight and half minutes The body
gave four coHvulsive witches while
hanging.
Biggerstaa was hardened criminal
While in Denver seven years ago he
was implicated in a murder, where Z

against him and he will now have to
