CALL IT MERCIFUL.
criminoIoEI.ts Suggest New and
Absolutely sure Method of Exe-
cution-Death Caused by De-
atractIOn of Brain Cells.

The voice of the humanitarian is be-
ing raised just now in indignant ap-
peal against the new mode of execution
that Frenehmen propose TO adopt in
place of the swift-killing and merciful
guillotine. The new method consists in
getting rid of murderers by piercing
their brains with n needle, Il sufficiently
awful death il would seem at first sight
to justify some protest. The criminal
is placed in chair, his hands firmly
bound to the framework. and over his
is placed huge helmet resembling in
shape and general appearance the he'll
met that the deep-sea diver wears.
Where the temples of the wearer come
are two holes, through which penetrate
the points of needles. these needles be-
ing connected with an electric battery.
When the condemned mans limit of life
has been reached the execu,ioner
touches button. Instantly the two
needles leap from their sockets and PEN
citrate through the temples into the
brain of the criminal At the same
time an electric power is impaired to
the two needles so that they are really
conveyors of powerful alternating cur
rent flashes that, 1t is claimed, rend
asunder and destroy so large portion
of the brain cells that death is instan-
taneous.
The objections raised by the hlman-
itarians have caused TO be cited in the
discussion the methods of execution in
vogue in various countries. These are
being compared with the death helmet,
of course with the object of showing
that the latter is in advance of them
as a quick means of destroying life.
The worst of all the means of punish
ing wroHgdoers by death is that point
cd to as in fashion I'm Russia. Certainly,

Catherine OF Russia abolished capital
punishment as far back as 1907, except
in the case OF those traitoTious 10 the
state. but the knout, 1t is shown, has
proved the death weapon Of thousands.
1t is a fact, says the Frenchmen who
favor the death helmet, that Russian
criminals are knouted TO death in
frightful numbers every year.
Spaln's way of ridding the earth Of
murderers by fastening them in a
chair and choking them To death Is
pointed out as barbarous enough To
make the proposed French method
seem. by comparison. featbcr-bed
death. while the brutal hanging. ia
vored in England and in parts Of the
United States. makes the French atl-
thorities shudder. Brunswick execu-
tions. where the old-fashioned heads
man still wields his AK over the head
of the criminal, who kneels at the block
TO receive the butchers stroke, have
received equally sweeping condemna-
tion. although the Brunswickcrs are up
in arms about IL, claiming that their
method Is as humane as the guillotine
and Is far more TO the taste of the
criminal than the proposed piercing Of
the brain with electric needles" n

followed by an empty hearse drawn by
