The Last Execution at Tyburp.

The last execution at Tyburn, says
writer in Notes and Queries, took
place on Friday, Nov. 7, 1888, in the
person of John Austin, convicted on
the preceding Saturday of robbing
John Spicer and cutting and wound
ing him in cruel manner. In Wal
ford's cold and New London" it is
enormously said that 'the last Grim
inal execution here was one Ryland,
who was hung [sicl for forgery in
1885," William Ryland was executed
on Aug. 29, two months before the
date Of Austin's conviction, and many
poor wretch made the fatal pilgrim
age to Tyburn in the interval, hanging
by wholesale being the rule in those
days.
The long procession westward had
been attended by such disgraceful
scenes that the authorities resolved to
hang criminals henceforth outside
Newgate prison, straight from the con-
demned cell. Accordingly, on Dec.
3, 1888, the recorder ordered the erec-
tion of a scafiord in front of the Jail,
Of which notice and descriptive en-
craving appear in the Gentleman's
Magazine for the same month, and on
the 10th the new hanging place was
inaugurated by the execution of ten
malefactors.

The Dreyfus "Hoodoo,"

A fatality followed the family of the
late Colonel Henry of Dreyfus fame as
it followed the Stuarts. He was the
third member of his family within "a
years who died a tragical death. The
first had the misnomer of "Fortunate
Henry" He was member of the
Commune and a colonel under it in
1871. His son was Emile Henry, who
dynamited the police station at the
Rue des Bons Enfants and the Cafe
Terminus in 1894. Colonel Henry of
the general staff was summoned to
give evidence before the assize court
of the Seine as to the character and
morals of his young kiusman. He APP
peared for the prosecution. Perhaps
his disposition hardened the heart Of
the jury He said in his coarse way,
"The father was restless Republican
under the empire, the son Of a restless
anarchist. They were all like that in

Sir Lepel Griffin has place on re.
cord his conviction that the Silks
form the backbone of the Indian army,
for the following reasons: Ghurkas,
though at least equally valuable as in

and are an Independent race. Pathans
are apt to become homesick and dis
like to be stationed at any great dis
tance from their native land. Diff
Guilty is experienced in enlisting pure
Rajputs in anynumber. But the Sikh
is always ready to enlist and to under
take duty across the ''Black Water"
even should that duty be to fight an
epidemic in Hong Kong or to chase
Arab slave dealers in Central Africa,
if only he be well paid, for the Sikh
has several Scottish aualpies1. He is

Tense or in attack; he appreciates the

Uses Sometimes Made of Rings.

In ancient times q seal ring served
often as a. letter Of introduction. and
to go no further Scripture offers more
than one example of its being used in
this way. In earlier and in later days
n ring served to identify its owner or
his messenger, and not only poetry
and fiction but history itself has offered
many romantic instances of rings EN-
ployed in this way. Some persons
have cast doubts on the story OF Queen
Elizsbeths waiting for the ring which
Essex was to send her il ever he found
himself in trouble and needed her.
But whether or not the story is true,
it is fact that from the time of
Essex's daus Lady Frances Dever-
eux, such ring has descended from
mother to daughter down to the pres
ent time. 1t is OF fine gold, wills q

A Chinaman's Memory,

''The intellectual capacity OF the
Chinese may rank with the best in
Western countries. Their own liter
airy studies, in which memory plays
the important part, prove the nation
to be capable of prodigious achieve
ments in that direction. 1t is stated
in Macaulay's Life that had "Para-
disc Lost" been destroyed he could
have reproduced it from memory. But
even such power of memory as he
possessed is small as compared with
that of many Chinese, who can repeat
by heart all the thirteen classics; and
it is as nothing to that of some Chi
nese, who, in addition to being able,
to repeat the classics, can memorze a
large part of the general literature of
their country.
"a Chinese acquaintance Of mine@
was able at the age of sixty-tive to re-
produce, verbatim, letters received
by him in his youth from some OF his
literary friends famous as styiists.
When pitted against European stu
dents in school or college the China
man is in no respect inferior to his
Western contemporaries, aud, whether
in mathematics and applied science,
or i'll metaphysics and speculative
thought, he is able to hold his own
against all competitors. "--"China in

SAN BERNARDINO, Sept. 1.-THE
first steps toward suppressng illegal for
aging on the San Bernardino forest reser-
walton by sheep owners was taken yester-
day when the Arrowhead Reservoir Com
pany corraled 2000 sheep after warning
the herder off its valuable little Bear VAL

on the reserve. threatening the, water
supply of the valley: Last spring the
the reserve and grant the sheepmen the
privilege of driyin" across under Govern
ment guides to leased grazing ground on
the other side; but it added the, proviso
that the sheep men pay the guides 81 20
a day each. hence It wants the guides
interest, as we'll as to the sheep mems, to
go slow. Thus immense tracts have been
grazed over. The sheep eat everything
grown, even young trees, standing on
their hind legs to strip the bark and
branches as high up as they can reach
The ground is left unprotected and is
washed away easily by rains and water
not retained by the soil.
The number of sheep on the reserve is
enormous.

HUNTER FIRES INTO
A RANCH HOUSE
Mistakes a Lamp for Deer's Eye
and Fatally Wounds a Little
Girl

SAN RAFAEL, Sept u.-News reached
this city tonight of an accident at In
verness, near Point Reyes, last night,
which may cost the life of the 14-year old
daughter of a prosperous farmer, named
Berry Mr.. and Mrs. Berry and their
two children, boy and a girl, were Sit
ting around the supper table shortly after
dark. eating their evening meal, when the
crack of a rifle was heard in the distance
and simultaneously with the report a
rifle ball crashed through the window.
The bullet first struck the little boy, who
was seated near the window, in the
shoulder and glancing from bone entered
the abdomen Of the daughter.
The cries of the wounded children,
drove the poor wife nearly frantic, and
Berry had considerable trouble calming
her sufficiently to leave her in charge Of
the children while he ran for doctor.
AS soon as the physician arrived he per-
fetal, but that the girl was perhaps fatal
ly wounded. All the medical assistance
possible was rendered her, but probing
failed to find the bullet and to-day she
was taken to San Francisco for skillful
treatment.
1t was learned to-day that the bullet
was fired by a hunter named Scribes. He
said that he had been looking for deer,
and in the gloom thought he perceived
a cleaning eye short distance away and
fired. The eye could have been nothing
more nor less than the lamp in the farm
ers dining-room. Scribes' carelesSness is
censured and If the girl dies he may be
arrested.
