GEORGETOWN, DEL, June Thames
NJ. Gordy was hanged this morning for
the murder of his wife, formerly Ms.
Mary Lewis of New York. He stood upon
the scaffold protesting his innocence until
the black cap was placed over his head.
His last words were: "Good-by all. A
man who has the love of God in his heart
need never fear death. l am willing to
die" The drop fell at 1926. Eleven
minutes later he wes pronounced dead.
Death was due to stIangulation.
At the foot of the scaffold Gordy read a
statement, denying the crime, and de-
clared that those who accused him of NJ ur-
deripg his father and first wife and child
would have to answer to him for their lies
on judgment day. Gordy married Mrs.
Lewis last February in New York. He
took her 10 his farm in Milton, Del, and
murdered her on March II for insurance.
He was convicted April Ii.

been turbulent and fear is felt lest the
other tribes rise against the British.
The Mullah of Plewindah is we'll known
to the British Indian authorities. He is
a notorious fanatical priest and has al
ways been hostile to British influence.
Owing to an attempt which the Mullah
recently made 10 STIR up a rebellion he
was expelled from British territory. This
caused him to be deserted by MS own
people and be has since lived in Afghan

camp at Wano in November, 1894 The

While Colonel A. II. Turner, the British
commander, was engaged in 1894 in de-
limiting the Indo- Afghan frontier, his
camp at Wano was attacked on Novem be r

British Indian Forces
Surprised by Furious
Natives.
Three Officers Killed and
Many Wounded During
the Battle.
The Mullah of Plewindah, a Noto-
rIOuS FanatiCal Priest, the
Cause of the Onslaught.

SIMLA, INDIA, June 1L-Much excite
ment was caused in military and Govern
ment circles to-day by the news of a
serious uprising of natives in the norl h.
ern part of India and an attack on the
British Indian force, which resulted in
the killing of Colonel Bunny, Captain
Brown and Lieutenant Cruikshank. Other
British officers were wounded.
The feeling in general is strong that a
punitive expedition will be Immediately
dispatched to deal with the unruIy ma :
tlves. There has been for years much
opposition to British rule among the
tribes of the northsrn frontier, but for a
long time the tribesmen have committed
no overt act. No idea is therefore enter
tanned of an active revolt against the Gov
ernment. 1t is believed they were incited
TO the attack by some of their fanatical
priesthood, W are among the most dan
gerous characters with whom the British
have to deal. The attack was made in
Tochi Valley, on the Afghan frontier.
From the particulars obtainable at pres
ent it seems that the two guns belonging
to the Bombay mounted batteries, escort
ed by 800 men belonging TO the First Reg
ment Of SiKhs and the First Puniab In
fantry, were treacherouslv attacked in the
Tochi Valley by large force of hostile ma
tives.
The first reports said that Colonel Bun
ny, two officers and twenty-five privates
had been killed and that three officers anu
twenty five men had been wounded. In
addition number of mules and horses
are reported killed. Ind ations are that
the affair is more than conflict with
warlike natives and that the notorious
Mullah of Plewindah is at the bottom of
the trouble.
The latest sdvices are that a political
officer, Mr.. Gee, was visiting Shirani with
an escort of troops when he was attacked
at Mama by vastly superior forces. The
British troops were compelled to retreat
and were followed several miles by over
whelming numbers OF the enemy. The
fighting was desperate. All the British
officers were severely wounded. Captain
Browne of the First Sikhs, a son of the
late Sir James Browne, ana Lieutenant
Cruikshank of the Royal Artillery were
killed, and Surgeon Higginson, Lieutenant
Higginson of the First Sikhs and Lieu
tenant Seaton-Browne of the Pun jab In
fantry were wounded.
The second dispatch does not mention
the death of Colonel Bunny, but from
the fact that it says that Colonel Gray
from Miranshah has taken over the COM
mand of the British force engaged it is
inferred that Colonel Bunny is also
among the dead, as at first announced.

No Possibility of Prem ature

Cement ReceptacIes With Electric
Appliances for Twelve Thou
sand Bodies.

NEW YORK, N. Y, June 1.-THE sani-
tary committee of the Health Board to-
day approved the plans OF new mauso-
leum company for the esta blishment of a
sanitary mausoleum near High Bridge
which will have capacity of from 10, 600
to II, 900 bodies, and in which it is pro-
posed to entomb the dead in cement re-
ceptacies. Tae bodies are to be exposed
for several months to a current of air
made chemically dry by passing it over
sulphuric acid, the air TO be purified after
ward by fire. When the body is thor
oughly desicca!ed the receptacle is to be
made fright.
The mausoleum interior will resem BILE
a well-appointed library, with a main
corridor and diverging halls leading to
diffei eat sections. The sepuIchers will be
of solid concrete, four inches thick and a
little larger than an ordinary coffin.
One advantage claimed for the new sys-
tenn is security against grave robbers. A
novel feature is protection against pre-
mature entombments. Electrical ap-
paratus is to be provided and so adjusted
to reach the body that the slightest move
ment will sound an alarm that cannot fail
TO be he ard by watchman. There will
also be an indicator connected with the
electrical apparatus showing exactly
which sepulcher the alarm came from.
According 10 the plans filed a body will
remain in its sepulcher three months he
fore the tomb is hermetically sealed. Each
sepulcher will be constructed with a con-
duit of fresh air and with another that
will permit the egress of air after it has
absorbed the gasses and fluids of the
body. The egress conduit will terminate
in separate building, where the vitiated
air will be purified by passage through a
furnace, and thus, the company claims,
all noXious vaI ors will be DESTROYED

The successful man or woman is
never idle. They have busy hands
and brains, They eat the bread of
honest industry and undoubtedly
they appreciate and enjoy it, The
thought often occurs as to just
what what kind Of spirit, or
whether any at all, actuates the
strong, healthy man, young and
middle aged, who stand on the corr
ners in the morning, noon and even
Ing hours, and see the young and
often delicate women going to and

means to keep body and soul to-
gether and to support some worth
less man to whom they are tied, or
some wayward and vicious son or

manhood or personal pride would
rise up and rebuke this stolid indil-

that the large planning mills Of the

The dispatch also stated that the
loss was covered by insurance. This
led us to hope that this enterprise

been dissipated by a confirmation
of the report received later that
