SHERRY ESTATE sHaINKs.

Million Dollars.

OSHKOSH. Wis. JAM CA lively session
of the creditors OF Henry Sherry was held
today. which was presided over by Judge
Hamilton, of Neenah. Some dissatisfaction
was expressed because Assignee Cameron was
not prepared with an invoice of the prop
critics in his possession and could give no
definite statement as to the value of the
estate. Ben Hooper attorney for the as

Everything Ready for the Execution
of Durrant.

On the eve of the execu-
ton Of Theodore Durrant the
only indications of the final
scene of his life's tragedy are the
presence of the grim gallows near the
condemned cell and of the unusual
number of civilians who are to witness
the hanging tomorrow morning Dur
rant passed the day as he has spent
most of his days lately. reading his
Bible, praying and pacing to and fro
across the condemned cell. Chaplain
brahms administered spiritual conso-
!ation this morning, the prisoner join
ing him in prayer.
This afternoon Attorney Deuprey, of
counsel for Durrant, accompanied by
United States Marshal Baldwin, came
over from San Francisco and served
on Warden Hale a certified copy of the
bill Of exceptions taken today in the
united States circuit court, together
with notice of appeal from the order
denying the application for a writ of
error The warden was asked to defer
the execution on the ground that the
appeal acted as a stay. The warden
took the $3.50 boat for San Francisco to
consult with Attorney General Fitz-
gerald, who advised him to proceed
with the execution, disregarding the
service, as the question raised had al
ready been settled and the new appli-
cation was frivolous. This left Dur
rant only one hope, the governor hay
ing declined to interfere. This was the
possibility that Attorney Boardman's
mission to Washington might be sue
cessful and that he might secure a stay
from the supreme court. Late this
afternoon, however, word was received
that Justice Brewer had denied the ap-
plication and that there was at last
absolutely no legal obstacle between
the condemned man and the gallows.
The prison officials, on the receipt of
this news, were greatly relieved and
everything is now in readiness for the
carrying. out of the sentence, four times
imposed on the murderer of Blanche
Lamont and Minnie Williams.

HOW TO TEACH PATRIOTISM.

Astoria, July s-Edltor Astorlan: I
read with great interest an article in your

the true method and II carried further.
as It may well be, II cannot but result in
making our boys and girls more manly
and womanly
Telling boy 10 be good will never make
him a whit better nor create or cultivate
in him an admiration for honesty or IN
dustry. A good character IS the result or
a desire to attain an ideal and the ideal
is formed from the observation Of the
lives or records Of others. In like man
ner, telling pupils how much they ought
to love their country or how much their
country Is doing for them, will be Of no
avail. Patriotism cannot be bought. II
has its source In the deepest recesses OF
the heart and springs from feeling, not
from reason. For that reason the sing
ing Of one Of our national hymns thrills
the hearts Of all and unconsciously we
come to feel love for our country, It's
emblems and its principles.
Stories Of patriotic deeds well described
will have like effect and will serve
