THE HEADSMAN,
He Used the Sword and Not the Ar
Prior to 3

He Used the Sword and Not the Ar
Prior to 14S3.
l am inclined to think that prior to
1888 the sword and not the ak was
usually employed as the weapon for
judicial decapitation and that a block
was dispensed with, the victims receiv-
ing their doom ''meekly kneeling upon
their knees" and in this opinion 1 am
fortified by the concurrence of an emil
nent clerical historian. This learned
writer agreed with me that the ak did
not become the regulation lethal i'm
plement until after the rough and ready
heading" of Lord Hastings on the
Tower green, when he was summarily
dispatched by order of the protector,
Gloucester.
In this instance, according to the
chroniclers, the victims neck was
stretched upon a piece of timber then
in use for the repair of the adjacent
church Of st. Peter ad Vincula, prob
ably a ''putlog," part of the scaffold-
ing which. we read. conveniently lay
in the way Contemporary accounts
seem to indicate that the executioner
straddled over the prone body, and from
this position l infer that the decapita.
ton was effected by the tool known as
an adj, the cutting edge of which is
at a right angle to and not in a plane
with the haft.
l may add that the only contempt
rary reference l have come across of the
use. or proposed use. of an ak and
block for inficting capital punishment
prior to this tragedy is in one of the
Pastor series of letters describing the
peril Of an unfortunate captive of Jack
Cadets rebels "a. D. 1450). a generation
before Lord Hastings was so clumsily
hacked to death. -Notes and Queriea-

The faults Of American speech. &C

End your language as mellow az any of

your c's are not soft enough. When you
can train your scholars to emit these and
the other consonants within the pitch,
using the tongue instead of the throat

The Prettiest Calendar.

Hoods Sarsaparilla Proverb
calendar for 1900 is the prettiest
we have seen. 1t is borne in front
of two little girls, whose fresh.
sweet faces, and dainty robes of
blue and pink form a pleasing
picture upon which to look during
the coming year. The calendar is
printed from large, plain type and
gives valuable information. The
calendar is made to stand alone or
it can be suspended from the wall.
Everyone will want Hoods
calendar, and you should ask your
druggist for it at once. You can
obtain one, if more convenient, by
sending6 cents in stamps to G. 1.

A Searching Criticism of the wns.
dorf-Astorin and Its Habitues.
The Waldorf-Astcria hotel is a grea4
temple of Mammon. You go there at
any time and the only things you hear
about are millions. You see million
aires of all sorts, fat and lean, young
and old. You hear them, at the bar or
gathered around tah.as~ talking "mar-
gins and of trusts and of millions.
Everybody seems, around the Waldorf
at least, to be money mad. The bellboys
won't look at a tip less than 81. In the
cafe an egg costs as much as a square
meal. Cigars at 81 apiece are quite the
ordinary thing. You can spend q
months salary on a dinner for four,
and wine at $15 per bottle is not at all
exorbitant.
The place is crowded all the time by
the wealthiest visitors to Manhattan
from all over the world. You are told
in awe inspiring whispers hat there
are suits of rooms costing $3.50 per day.
You are shown the Safe which at this
very minute holds 81. 600. 900 worth of
valuables belonging to guests. And
you'll see millionaires eating with their
knives. and you'll hear dowagers tell
ing their friends II done it" and II
seen her" Money, money. money! The
continual elevation of it is nauseating.
There is something sordid in all the
Waldorf Astoria splendor.
The atmosphere Of the Waldorf-As-
toria is reeking with vulgarity and all
unhealthiness. All these mil.ionaires
are nothing, after all. but a horde of
gamblers. And the women. so far as
one sees them, seem to be oppressed by
their wealth. If there is anything more
horrible than the high Gotham life ir
which every man and woman every day
is sentenced to evening dress after 8
o'clock, where is it2
A distinguished man of letters said
to me, after a view of the Waldorf-As-
toria cafe in the evening, where you
have to reserve your table in the early
afternoon. 1.-The trouble with these
people is that they have no souls" And
most of them haven't. They live solely
for the senses. They are to be pitied
rather than envied. Exchange.

The Habit.

A we'll known chemist states that a
surprising number Of we'll to do young
ladies have taken to buying the various
forms of doctored up coca extracts (co-
taine) in large quantities, also phe-
nacetine and various bromides, because
''they make one feel so nice and hap
py.' 1t is needless to say that such
practices are exceedingly risky. Per-
haps, however, they are preferable to
another extremely foolish trick-that
of shifting chloroform dropped on a
handkerchief, with the object Of pro-
ducing a pleasant, dreamy languor.-

Downie's Big company makes a
most favorable impression. "The
Two Orphans" was presented at
the Union Family Theatre by
Downie's Big company to an ap-
preciative audience last night and
is on the boards for tonight. The
play which is a beautiful one,
needs no introduction to the
theatre going public of Butte.
Chic Perkins and Mile La Tena
were cast as the two orphans, and
sustained the characters in a man
ner that won for them much en-
thusiastic applause. F. A. Mills
and Chevalier de Vaudrey, was
every thing that could be desired
and Chevalier Myers as misister
of the police, was by nature cast
for the part. The ladies without
exception were excellent in their
several roles and, taken as a whole,
the company is an exceptionally
we'll balanced company, The

Walhalla Mountaineer:
1t is not often that the haying
season extends to the 9th day of
December. even here in the balmy
cline of northern North Dakota,
but this year, perhaps on account
of the unusual fine weather that
has prevailed, a Cavalier county
farmer, living in Fremont, cut and
raked several tons of hay on that
date. He believes the quality to
be better than that cut earlier in
the season and firmly adhers to the
old maxim of, making hay while
