there was a heavy rain storm. followed by

CALLS ON THE CHIEF ExEoUrIoNEn,
Who Makes Nearly Bad a job as His
Assistant.

If the actual cxcutioner was nervous
upon the occasion of the first killing he
was ten times more so upon this occas-
ion. He fumbied and fumed, alternate
" turning TO u death-likc whitencsS and
flushing crimson with excitoment. The
result was more slow, fearful strangula-
tion and another horrible experience for
the spectators. BY this time the prison
officials, the priests and officers in com.
mand of the troops had endured SO much
that they openly denounced the acting
execu:ioner and called upon him to get
down from the scaffold and let another
man take his place. Thereupon the act
ing executioncr feverishly called upon the
exccu:ioncr-in chief, Valentine::R Ruiz, who
from long experience is looked upon as
being an expert in his line, to come and
help him out of his difficulty.
Ruiz however, was almost rs nervous
and excited as his assistant and fumblcd
badly as he handled the third Cuban.
But Ruiz succeeded in accomplishing the
execution in shorter time and with less
horror than his assistant, which was a
great relief TO every body. The fourth
Cuban was then turned over 20 Ruiz for
strangulation. BY this time Ruiz was
shaking all over and he was much slower
and considerably clumsicr in sending the
unhappy man out of the world. So much
SO that thcrc was renewed murmuring at
the official incapacity and Ruiz stumbled
away from the death post, insisting in
choking tones that his assistant must
finish the days work.
Consequently, the assistant execution
er again tried his hand at the terrible
screw and was as unlucky as before, for
there was another scene of horror which
nearly sed strong men to faint before
