Hungarian Is Caught by Means OF
Pet Dog

Rarlin. Dec. 7-August GOenczi the
Hungarian who murdered a wealthy
widow named Schulz and her daughter
here in 1897, was beheaded this morning
in the prison of PIOetzenze.
The murder was an atrocious one,
and was committed in the center Of
Berlin. The murderer was ultimately
traced to Brazil, through a pet dog,
and was arrested at Rio Janeiro q
year ago
Capital punishment is SO unusual
here that the execution attracted con-
siderable attention
1t was only yesterday that the court
of criminal appeals confirmed the SEN
tence of death passed upon Goenczi.
His victims were misery persons who
were known to have concealed large
sums of money in their house on koe-
nig-GraetZer Strasse- The trial OF
GOenczi was remarkable from the fact
that he invented, for the purpose or his
defense. q man whom he called Low
ev.'' and persuaded a number of per
sons that 'I,owey" was in existence,
and that they had seen him.

GEN. BLACKS ADDRESS
Feature of Memorial Exercises at Rock
Island Arsenal.

| Feature of Memorial Exercises at Rock
Island Arsenal.
The event of the Memorial day GER
emonies ut the national cemetery at
Rock Island arsenal yesterday after
noon was the address of Gen. John C.
Black, of Chicago.
He spoke of the significance of Mem
orial day, the Nations Sabbath" the
day above all others when hearts beat
with the true patriotic fervor as the
| memory of the deeds of tue soldiers
| of the Co.'s come with redoubled force
to the American mind. Patriotism is
now as it was then, the greatest force
in the life and being of a nation. 1t
| is the undefnable feeling which
causes the heart to thrill at the very
name America" the sublime passion
| which makes the nations flag as it
rises from the earth the grandest
thing in the whole world. 1t was
this patriotism that brought the SOL
diers together by hundreds of thou
sands at the first tap of the drum
when the nation was threatened with
strife which might tear it asunder.
The people had grown TO love their
country, purchased by blood shed for
liberty by their fathers. They said
to them selves this country has been
our cradle, and if it need be it shall
be our grave, but wherever we die
one flag shalt float above our tomb. :"
They determined calmly and rever-
emily, with more reverence that fills
the country today, that the graves of
Washington and Hamilton should find
sepulchre in the breast of united
country.
I'VE are a united country" said
Gen. Black. When the new troubles
darkeued the horizon of this country
two years ago, the boys of Iowa and
the boys of Florida, the boys of Geor-
gia and the boys of Illinois, lifted up
their voices with the cry, we are the
free sons of a free country and are
ready to 90 wherever our country
sends us 1t was worth something
to see a scene of that kind. You sol
diers did not dream as you fought one
another in the south that while you
yet lived, your sons, side by side,
would be fighting q common enemy.
Yet, so it is, and it is hard to tell
whether the son of the south or
the son of the north loves his coun-
try more.
decoration day has come to stay.
L believe, whatever other pageantry
shall cease. Decoration day will be the
enduring Sabbath of the American
people. Our children will recognize
better than we the majesty of the
struggle and the greatness of the re-
suit. So year after year will see these
spots the assem- bling places for thous-
ands of people gathered to do rever-
ence to the memories of their fore
fathers who fought for liberty and the
nation"
