Thousands Of Letters and DeIicacjes
for the Condemned Man-The Prs-
oner Never Gets Them, However,.
Would Be a Matter of Surprise if
the Names of the Donors Should Be
Made Known.
Albany, N. Y, Oct. 5.-Superintend-
ent Cornelius V. Collins will send a
request to Secretary of State Hay to
designate an official representative of
the government to be present at the
electrocution of Leon F. Czolgosz, the
murderer OF President Mckinley Only
26 witnesses will be present in the
chamber of death when the sentence
is executed. 1t was stated at the state
department of prisons that statements
to the effect that Czolgosz is in con-
tlnucus state of collapse anu that he
breaks down and weeps every time
anything is said to him concerning
the elect tg7c1ltion are false. Superin-
tendent @odins had a talk with the
condemned man some dsvs ago and at
that time he said he Snew that he
had to die. He express si no fear as
to the electrocution, but said that he
would not care to SO outside of the
prison. for he believed that the people
would kill him.
Since his confinement in Auburn
prison several thousand letters have
been received for him at the prison,
as we'll as a large number of express
packages containing flowers and fruit.
Ihe letters. flowers and fruit have
never reached the condemned man.
The flowers and fruit, it is learned.
have been sent by Christian societies,
as have number of letters consoling
him in his last moments. Other let
ters have come from cranks, who have
written about the species of torture
to which they would put him if they
had the execution of justice in his
case.
1t is stated, however, that { would
be matter of surprise if the names
OF senders of fruit and flowers were
made public.

1899 above quoted, but so little as to be
of no consequence"
How long it will take these posses
sions, especially the much Wanted
trade of the Philippines, to repay us
the enormous sums we have expended
to get them and must continue to
spend indefinitely to keep them, will
will be a nice little problem In addi-

to say that at present it is not clear
how we are ever to get back even the
interest on the sum of our expenditures

SHAME ON THE OLD DOMINION.

Two women whipped in public
twenty lashes laid on each bare back
in Suffolk, in the State of old Vir-
GINA, the old time home of Southern
chivalry! Is not the news sufficient to
make some of the dead and gone of the
Old Dominion turn in their graves?
The women were wretched specimens
of the sex to be sure, poor abandoned
creatures, but they were women. Yet
dispatch says that "a curious crowd
looked on without making any sign Of
approval or disgust" Surely there
was none of the real old Virginia blood
in that crowd
The police and the magistrate, we are
told, declare that this will drive all the
Objectionable persons out of Suffolk.
But this is evidently a mistake. The
persons who voted for this woman
whipping law and those who laid tne
lashes on will remain.

The Golden stool of Ashanti.


When the British governor OF Ashanti
wishes to hold conference with the
natives, it semes that he must sit upon
a golden stool.
Unless he occupied a seat made of the
precious metal the king and chiefs
would not believe that he was the fully
qualified representative of the great
government beyond the seas.
So much importance do they attach
to this ceremony that, during the trou-
bles at Kumasi in 1900, the governor
once made formal complaint to the
natives that they had not fetched this
stool of gold for him to sit upon.
He appeared to think that the natives
meant to offer a slight to Queen Vic
toria, and he therefore required them
to produce it.

MIR. uNDERwooD.s PROMOTION.

The election of Mr.. F. d. Under
wood, of the Baltimore and Ohio, to the
Presidency of the Erie, while universal
ly recognized as distinct and merited
advancement for that capable and en-
ergetic railroad man, is not wholly
pleasing to the people of Wheeling and
of the old fourth division" generally,
personal consideration being laid aside.
Mr.. Underwood was the especial
friend of Wheeling, and was distinctly
favorable to this city and its surround
ing interests. He took an interest in
our welfare. and of late had so Tar
shown his kindly disposition as to make
distinct promises of specific improve
ments, all of which he would have car
ried out had he remained in his old po-
sition. He had been called up higher,
however, and to other fields of labor
and usefulness. and the good wishes,
as well as the regrets, of the business
men and manufacturers and the travel
ing pubic AT and along this end OF the
line will go with him. His acquisi-
ton by the Erie is matter that Com
pany may well congratulate itself up
on. He is always the right man in the
right place and has the railroad BUSH
ness right down at the ends of his fin
gers.
Our hope now is that Mr.. Thomas
Fitzgerald will succeed Mr.. Under
wood, on the B. & o. He is also
man of parts, favorably inclined to-
wards this section, and the good friend
of Wheeling He will be welcomed to
the responsible position now to be va
Gated.

uniting it to partially pass off ere the

what saved us from equal disaster with
narrow escape and one for which we
