NOT A BONE WAS BROKEN

NIAGARA FALLS, N Y, Oct "a
Mrs. Annie Edison Taylor, fifty years old,
went over Niagara Falls on the Canadian
side, this afternoon and survived, a feat
never before accomplished, and indeed
never attempted except in the deliberate
commission of suicide. She made the
trip in a barrel. Not only did she sur
vive but she escaped without broken
bone, her only apparent injuries being a
scalp wound one and one-half inches
long, a slight concussion of the brain,
some shock to her nervous system and
bruises about the body. She was con-
scious when taken out of the barrel The
doctors in attendance upon her tonight
said that though she was somewhat hyS
terical, her condition is not at all serious
and that she probably will be out of bed
within a. few days.
Mrs. Taylor's trip covered a mile ride
through the Canadian rapids before she
reached the brink of the precipice. Her
barrel, staunch as a barred could be
made, was twirled and buffeted through
these delirious waters, but escaped seri-
Gus contact with rocks AS it passed
through the smoother, swifter waters
that rushed over into the abyss it rode
III an almost perpendicular position with
it's upper half out of the water.
AS it passed over the brink it rode at
surface of the deluge and descended
gracefully to the white foaniing waters,
1853 feet below.
True to her calculations, an anvil
fastened to the bottom of the barrel kept
it foot downward and so it landed Had

from the barrel and half an hour later
she lay on cot at her boarding place, in
Niagara Falls on the American side. She
said she would never do it again, but
that she was not sorry she hau done it,

She said she had prayed all during the
trip, except during "a few moments of
unconsciousness just after her descent.

named Bill Morris, who assaulted Mrs
John Ball, at Balltown, La, was burned
at the stake today. After being captured
he made an effort to implicate others,
but they soon proved their innocence. He
was taken to the scene of his crime, tied
to pine sapling with chai5s, and his
hands and feet chained to his body Pine
knots and pine straw were piled about
the body and saturated with coal oil, and
the whole set on fire. The negro made no
outcry when the flames first reached him,
and only when he was partly consumed
did the spectators notice any movement
on his part. He made no resistance when
being bound to the stake, and said that
he deserved his fate

ALBANY, N. Y, Oct. A-Leon E. Czol-
gosz, the murderer of President McKin-

Tuesday, Oct 20, at Auburn prison.
Warden Mead has selected Tuesday so
that final arrangements may be made on
Monday. In doing this he is following
the general custom in the state prisons
relating to electrocutions. It does away
with the necessity of making final ar
rangements on Sunday. The sentence of
the court was that czolgosz should be ex-
ecuted during the week commencing Oct.
%, leaving to the warden of the prison
full power to select the day of the week
on which to carry out the mandate of
the law. The latitude is given the warden
to secure secrecy as to. the time and to
delay against accident such as in 1893
caused a delay of an hour in an execu-
ton after the condemned man had been
taken into the death house at Auburn
penitentiary. The witnesses will assem-

morning. There have been twenty-six in

CONVICT HENRY WISEMAN TELLS
OF MURDER OF MRS.
HELEN HUSS
MAKES A FULL CONFESSION
After an Argument He ChOked His
Victim Until the Breath of
Life Was Ex-
tinct,
THEN ROBBED THE CORPSE

JACKSON, Mich, Oct 24-Henry Wise
man, in Jackson prison. today confessed
that he murdered Mrs. Helen Huss in the
woods near Royal Oak, where her body
was found several weeks ago, buried in
a shallow grave under log. The muir
der was committed in October, 1900 He
made the confession in the presence of
Prosecutor Rockwell, of Oakland county,
and several officers. He admits that the
sensational details he told yesterday i'm
plicating William Hale, with whom the
woman had been living, were in reality
what ne himself went through on the day
he met Mrs. Huss and took her into the
woods, where the crime was committed.
He refused to give motive for the
crime.
Wiseman said Mrs. Huss came to his
house the day of the murder and asked
where she could buy some wood. Wise
man voluteered to show her, and they
started through the woods together. He
said he talked in a loving way to her,
and she did not resent it.
Then" said he, "I got into some argu-
ment with her-I don't know just how it
all happened-and before I realized it 1
had her by the throat. I choked her un-
til she was red in the face.
when first grabbed hold of her she
cried out at the top of her voice, but we
Were too far away from any living per-
son to be heard.
II kept on Tightening my fingers around
her throat until her color changed from
red to almost black, and 1 knew she was
dead"
He then carried the body, according to
his confession, some distance through the
woods, and placed it in the hole where it
was found, which had been there beside
the log for some time. Wiseman told
how he covered the body up with dirt
taken from different places in the woods
He took Mrs. Huss' shoes off and also
took her pocketbook and a ring from her
finger. He later gave the shoes and ring
to his wife. 1t was the possession of
these articles as much as anything that
directed suspicion toward him. Steps will
now be taken to have Wiseman, who is
serving a sentence for theft, pardoned by
Gov. Bliss and then tried on the charge of
murder.

noon in his rush across the continent
Even during that seven minutes he was
ViSibly irritated, and said something I'M

delays one meets with in travelling. AT
1:25 the special train, on which the dis
tinguished financier and his party have
come from the coast, rolled into the union
depot, and Mr.. Morgan got out on the
platform. A small crowd had gathered
to catch one glimpse of the man around
whom the financial interests of the coun-
try reVolve. Mr.. Morgan did not deign
to notice the curiosity seekers, but i'm
patiently looked at his watch. How
long do you wish to remain here, Mr.
Morgan" asked the depot master. Get
me out of here just as soon as you pos
sibly can,' he replied, and half a dozen
trainmen ran down the platform max
ing mysterious signals with their arms,
and in i few moments Mr.. Morgan was
speeding eastward over the North West

in the assurance that there would be no
more stops than necessary before reach

gan, were with the party. President
Mellen left the party upon reaching st.
Paul.
While the special has made no~attempt
to break any worlds records, it came

arrived in Washington today, and is
staying with Mr.. Cornelius Van der
1Ioogt, the Boer representative in Wash
lngtOn. During a visit to Europe, before
coming here, Gen. Pearson had inter
views with DR.. Leyds, the Transvaal
agent in that country, and with other
leading men from the South African re-
publics. He says the Beers will not give
up to the British, but will fight to the
end. Gen. Pearson hopes to enlist the
sympathies of the people of this country

chil3ren, who are now kept by the Brit
ish IL reconcentrado camps. There is,
he says, no reason for locating them in
these camps when there are ample ac-
commodations in the country for them.
There are now 109, 600 persons so situated,
and during the month of September the
mortality among them approximated 2,4O0
in all. He says the soldiers are willing
to submit to the hardships of the cam
paign and to the rules of war. but help
less men. women and children in the
camps, he says, should be accorded hu-
mane treatment AS the American con-
sui at Pretoria watched after the inter-
ests of the British prisoners there, he
declares it would be proper and just for
the Beers to have the representative of
some friendly government look after the
interest of the reconcentradoes. During
his stay in Washington the general will
seek an interview with President Roose-
Welt to acquaint him with the situation
existing in South Africa. He also will
make further effort to prevent the
shipment of mules from this country to
South Area and to have the matter
carried IN the supreme court of the
United States.
& Gen. Pearson says that President Kru-
ger may visit the United States at some
time in the near future, but nothing def
mite on his matter has been determined
upon.
Mr.Van q r Hoogt said tonight that the
Beers are nor seeking intervention by
