An example Insignificant perhaps of

TINS regiment Is now In process of be-
ing organized, and for it 42S horses are
needed. These are to be roans or sor-

expected to fail below $780, This means
an expenditure of $42 $780, and two more
squadrons have to be similarly equipped
oeIoFe the regiment is ready to sail For
mounts alone the regiment will eat up
nearly $3.50, goo, to say nothing of uniforms

service The others are the Eleventh. at
Fort Miles, Va; the Twelfth, at Forth

Inc situation in the Philippines also
seems to require the presence of another

the purpose. The headquarters for the
new regiments are: Invent -sixth, at

Inc horses which Col. Pond has adver-
used for are to be- delivered between
April and May 20 AS soon as the first

PENALTY OF HIS AWFUL
CRIME
WILL BE HANGED MARCH 20
Gov. Van SAINT Can Find No Extenu-

Case, and Signs the
Death Warrant.

Theodore Wanert, the murderer now
in confinement at Arlington, Will be
hanged Friday, March 90 The death
warrant was signed by Gov. Van SAINT
yesterday Afternoon and the doomed man
now has less than three weeks to live.
The Arlington tragedy is still fresh in
the minds of newspaper readers. 1t oc-
Cured Aug. 20, Of last year, and the
whole state was shocked at the time. 1t
was one of the most awful tragedies
that has happened in the state for years
and it was with considerable difficulty
that q lynChng was averted. On that
day he murdered Mrs Theodore Wallert.
aged fOrty-twO; his four step children,
Gustav Sternburn, aged twenty; Helena
SJernburn, aged sixteen; Anna Stern
burn, aged thirteen, and Reinold Stern
burn, aged twelve. There was young
er child, Otto Sternburg, aged eleven,
seriously injured who recovered.
Walert and his family had been hav-
ing troubles of various kinds ever since
his marriage with Mrs. Sternburn about
nine years ago. Several months before
the murder Walle17t left home and went
to live with relatives Nothing was seen
Of him until the night of the tragedy
when, after all had gone to bed, he set
fire to the barn, forcibly entered the
house and committed the crime with a
BQ ct hIlllC- re WIS discovered SOIQ0
days afterwards in a barn belonging to
one of his relatives. The whole town
of Arlington turned out to get a Veiw
of him and cries of lynch him. were
heard on every side, but the sheriff and
deputies eluded the crowd
When the case first came up for trial
Wallcrt feigned insanity, but afterward
pleaded guilty and filed a statement with
the court. In this statement, which is
now on file in the governors office, he
admits that he committed the CRIME, bat
claims that it was not premeditated. He
came to his home while on the way to
another place, he says, and accidentally,
through an open window, heard his wife
and step-children reviling him in terms
that set him into rage. He was seized
with thought Of murder and he c4uld
not drive it from him. An hour after
wards he was fleeing from justice. He
was sentenced Dec. IL, 1900
No one in this state has ATTEMPTED to
do anything Tor Wallert. 1t is under
stood that the mother of the condemned
man is in Germany, and that she has
written to Gov. Van SAINT to have her
son pardOned. The governor, however.
can find no eXtenuating circumstances in
tho case.
