BY ELECTRIC SPARK
LIFE WAS ENDED
Murderer Electroeuted In the
Ohio Penitentiary.
ST HAVE NOTHING TO SAY"

These Were the Only Words Uttered
by the Condemned Man-Then the
Fatal Current Was Applied and All
Was Over.
COLUMBUS, O., March 1T have
nothing to say" These were the only
words spoken in the electrocution room
at the Ohio penitentiary this morning,
Immediately after midnight, prelimi-
narp to the death of Roslyn Farrell, the
murderer, whose crime shocked the
country on the night of Aug. 10, 1900.
AS the condemned man gave this reply
to the query of Warden Darby, the
electric current was sent coursing
through his body and the law was
avenged.
Successful Job.
There was no hitch of any kind, and
the execution was the most successful
ever conducted in the state.
The number who witnessed the exc
cution was limited to the strict letter of
the law, and the small party took their
place in the room exactly at the hour of
10. Three minutes later the warden
nodded his head toward the door lead
ing into the cell department., and imme-
diately Rosslyn Ferrell, accompanied
by the guards and Rev. Fathers Kelly
and O'Rielly, made his appearance.
With firm step he walked to the plat
form on which stood the fatal chair
He stepped up and took his seat with
out hesitation. The guards quickly and
in most methodical manner fastened
the straps which bound his body in po-
sition. The prisoner had closed his eyes
and did not open them in life.
Fatal Current Applied.
All being in readiness, the warden
addressed to Ferrell the words stated
above. With quick motion the lever
controlling the current was thrown aud
1,150 volts were turned into the murder
er's body. For several seconds the high
voltage continued, the body being strain
ed against the straps. Then the force
was reduced to $50 volts and continued
at that strength for 40 seconds, when it
was cut off and the unfortunate man
pronounced dead.
There We're no unpleasant features to
the execution, nor was the body discol-
Ored in any manner.
An undertaker's wagon was in wait
ing, and as soon as the law had been
pronounced satisfied the body was re-
moved from the prison and prepared for
shipment to Steubenville. where the fu-
neral will occur on Sunday.

NEBRASKA PRISON
is NOW IN RUINS
Cellhouse and Main Building
Destroyed by Fire.
LOSS EXCEEDING $1,000

Prisoners Removed to Places of Safety
Without NIishap-They Will Tempo
rarily Live In Tents-Fire Discover
ed by Warden's Wife.
LINCOLN, Neb., March 1.-The Ne
braska state penitentiary is in ruins, as
result of the fire which started at mid
night last night, destroying the cell
house and the entire main building.
The loss will not be less than $500, 900,
and probably will exceed that amount.
The building practically was new. The
only building saved was the east wing,
occupied by the warden, the chapel and
small reserve cellroom. Precautions
have been taken to guard the prisoners,
who were removed under extra guard
without difficulty. Lieutenant Gov
ernor Savage has arranged to have a
sufficient number of the National Guard
sent to prevent the escape of any prison
ers. So far as is known no one has
been injured, and the prisoners viii be
provided for in the reserve cellrooms in
the east wing.
The fire was discovered by Warden
Davis shortly before midnight, he being
aroused by the cracking of flames and
the smell Of smoke The alarm was i'm
mediately given, the conyicts, guards
and employees aroused and request
telephoned to the Lincoln fire depart
ment for help. The convicts, number
ing almost 300 were ordered to clothe
themselves and were marshalled into
the huge courtyard in a long double
line, under the espionage of a score of
armed guards stationed on the wall sur
rounding the yard.
The main building and west cell
house, both of which are 3-story struc-
lures, are total loss The books, re-
cords and papers of the institution were
removed to place of safety, but moth
ing else of value was saved.
Origin of Fire.
The fire originated in the kitchen of
the warden apartments, located in the
upper story OF the main building, al
most directly over the office and near
the cellhouse. From the kitchen the
flames spread in all directions, gradu-
ally eating their way westward through
the new cellhouse and eastward through
the main building. The Lincoln fire
department responded with hose carts
and steamers, and two streams from the
pond were soon playing on the flames,
Internationally, as they served to only
temporarily check their speed.

catarrh and is treated for the wrong
disease.
The best and most successful treat
ment for any form of catarrh is now ad-i

the stomach, and the safest and proba-
bly, the most efficient is in the tablet
