lutz Sentenced to Death.

Unless the higher courts or the Par
don Board intervenes, John Lutz, who
so brutally murdered his wife at West
Plttston two years ago, will expiatc his
crime upon the gallows.
Lutz was brought from Jail on Mon
day, and after Judge Halsey had read
an opinion in which he refused to grant
a new trial, the prisoner was called to
the bar. Addressing the prisoner,
Judge Halsey said;
John Lutz, have you anything to
say before the sentence of the court is
pronounced?'
Lutz apparently did not understand
the question of the court and looked
inquiringly at his attorney, who repeat
cd the courts words. Then Lutz braced
up and in clear tones he said: Mrs.
Mailer did the crime, not me. She and
w. I. Richards and Constable Smith
are the guilty parties"
He was asked il he had anything else
to say, but Lutz shook his head mega
lively, wbereupon Judge Halsey pro-
nounced the sentence of the court as
follows:
John Lutz, you have been very ably
defended and have had a fair trial, but
the jury has found you guilty. The
sentence of the law Is that you be taken
from this court room to the county
prison, and when the time fixed by the
chief executive OF this state for your
execution shall have arrived, you, John
Lutz, be taken to the jail yard and
there hanged by the neck until you are
dead And may the Lord have mercy
on your soul"
Lutz stood erect as the fatal words
fell from the lips OF the court and his
manner gave no signs OF emotion.
When the court had finished he went
over to the prisoners corner, whore he
remarked to his attorney: 1T is not
all over yet"
The crime for which Lutz may have
TO answer with his life was committed
at West Pittston. Lutz had quarrel
with his wife early in tho evening and
about midnight returned to tho house
and, going to a room occupied by Mrs
Lutz, her baby aud u young daughter,
attacked the sleeping woman with an
axe, inncting wounds which resulted
in her death the next day. After the
attack on the woman Lutz attempt,
to take his own life by cutting his
throat, but his courage evidently failed
him.
Lutz was tried twice for his Grim :.
At the first trial the jury broke all
records by remaining out over two
weeks. When the jury finally returned
verdict Of guilty two Of the jurors
alleged that they had been coerced into
signing the verdict by their associates,
and upon these grounds new trial was
granted.
The second trial resulted in verdict
OF guilty.

when he recalled his portrait Of chill
dren TO Duvivier-and possibly through
shame and to efface the unpleasant re-
membrance he caught the boy up in
his arms and kissed him passionately.
Arthur laid his pretty, dimpled face
upon his shoulder, and his piping, child
like voice begged monsieur to remain
always with his mamma and grand
mother De Verneuil, usually so self
possessed, felt the color mounting to
his face as he cast a furtive glance at
Mrs. harrington, who suddenly appear
ed to be absorbed in her book. Then
in the twinkling Of an eye he ran down
the garden path, closely followed by
Arthur.
That evening quiet walk beneath
the stars settled the entire affair to the
satisfaction Of all. The child had won,
and for this reason Edmond de Yer
neull returned to Paris, in the bright
month Of May, accompanied by q
tiancee, prospective son and future
mother-in-law. AS an ardent lover he
had few equals, and, the young widow
yielding to his pleadings, the marriage
was fixed for an early date. OF course
he did not attend Duvivier's wedding,
for the very excellent reason that he
had to be present at his own, but the
next day he received from his friend
the following note:
My Dear De Yerneuil-My warmest congratula-
tions for your mastery stroke; but, between our
selves, am as jealous as Moor, for it is not the
good fortune OF every man to receive on the same
day wife and q mothern-law. Always
sincerely yours. DUvIyIER.

THEY URGE PEACE

Cape Town. Jan. 9.-The Central
Peace Commission at Kronstadt. has
issued circular, in the course of which
1t says:
The time has arrived for the in
habitants of the Orange River Colony
to make an effort to save the country
from further destruction. The coun-
try Is literally a vast wilderness. The
farmers, ruined and facing starvation,
are obliged to go to the towns for pro-
lection, and huge refugee camps have
been formed by the British for them.
This misery is caused by an obstinate
minority. who will not bow to the in
evitable."
The circular points out that the Brit
ish will never restore independence
to the republic. and urges upon the
burghers the duty of surrendering and
accepting the terms offered.
The recent Afrikander congress, at
Worcester, is criticised in the circular,
as misleading the Beers. and giving
false imnrossions.
In conclusion. the committee says
"The British Government Is willing
to settle matters in way not ungen-
erous or humiliating to us. We appeal
to you to appoint another congress. and
to nominate men of influence to visit
Mr.. Steyn and General De Wet and try
to persuade them to accept the terms
Great Britain offers. The two men are
the only obstacles to peace. We ask
you to believe us when we say that Mr..
Kruger and the late Transvaal gov
eminent are willing and would have
already accepted the British terms
but Mr.. Steyn has refused to have any
thing to do with 1t. He has continued
and has encouraged burghers. with a
hope that we would get European as
sistance. Today, he Is cut of from all
communication with the outside world
You know and we know. how founded
that hope is. II Is your duty to assist
us to make him understand this. We
appeal to you to help us to end the
unhappy state of affairs which Is
plunging everybody into poverty and
despair. We appeal to you, because we
know that you are able to assist us in
the right manner
The committee includes w. +. Sewet
late assistant chief commandant, tire,
members OF the valksraad, and two
justices OF the peace.

CONGRESSMAN INCREASE

Washington. Jan. S.-By a vote
of l65 to LOG the house to-day accepted
the re-apportionment plan proposed
by the Burleigh bill, which increases
the membership of the house during
the next decade from 35I, the present
membership and the membership pro-
posed by the committee in the Hop.
kins bill, to 1856.
The result was largely brought
about by the influence of certain SEN
ators from several of the larger North.
ern states, who threw the weight of
their influence in the scale. When II
became known that factors were at
work against his bill, Mr.. Hopkins
attempted to compromise by giving IN
additional representatives each to
North Dakota, Colorado and Florida
but his advcrsaries refused TO com.
promise after victory was assured.
The proposition to recommit the
bill for the purpose Of ascertaining
what states have had their rights to
vote curtailed to an extent which
would entail reduced representation
was defeated 1870 to 10. There was
no roll call on this vote, but mum.
Der of Republicans voted with the
| Democrats.
Under the bill as passed to-day nc
state loses a representative. New
York and Texas gain three and Min
nesota, Illinois, New Jersey and Penn
sylyania two each, ana Arkansas, Cal
ifornia, Colorado, Connecticut, Flori
da, Indiana, Massachusetts,, Mississip
pi, Missouri, North Carolina, NORTH
Dakota, Washington, West Virginia
and Wisconsin one each.
The bill provides that whenever q
new state Is admitted the representa-
tive assigned to it shall be in addi
ton to the number provided by the
bill. 1t also adds provision never
hitherto Incorporated in reappor
tionment bill to the effect that con
grcssional districts, in addition to be
ing contiguous" shall also be "com
pact" States that were allowed ad
ditional representatives by its term
are to elect them at large until tn,
legislature shall redistrict the state

From the Lewiston Evening Journal
A certain York farmer went into the
woods the other day to get dry fuel, and
he got better load than he expected. He
saw a giant pine stub on the edge OF an
icy marsh. cut 1t down. and began to chop
1t into lengths. Soon he felt his ak strike
something soft as 1t broke through the
shell OF the stub. Thinking that there
might be a bear inside. he proceeded eau
tiously. using wooden wedges to split the
stub apart. When the hollow, dry log fell
In halves there in the cavity lay eight fat
'coons, snugly housed away for the winter.
Further up in the trunk We're two more
'coons. while in the stump was fifty
pounder-the biggest and fattest of the lot.
This lucky farmer thus got, besides q cord
of dry wood, over two hundred pounds Of
coon meat and eleven coon skins. and
ever since that day he has quit all other
work and goes about in the woods looking
for more hollow logs with coons In them.
