MURDERER COLLAPSED
Execution of John Lutz at Wilkesbarre
Was Sensational.

Wilkesbarre, Pa. Jan. 22.-John
Lutz was hanged here yesterday
morning for the murder of his wife 20
months ago. The drop fell at 1917
o'clock, and his neck was broken. He
collapsed on the scaffold during the
last minute, and would have fallen
had not the sheriff seized his arm and
'steadied him until the drop fell. When
the rope was being adjusted he cried
out In agony: ooh, DON'T" Then he
utterly collapsed and the execution
had to be hurried. 1t was the most
sensational hanging that Luzerne

The Public Market.

MR.. EDITOR - This is free country
and every man has right to his owl
opinion and should have the liberty to
express 1t. think that the wise men Of
our town have made great mistake ic
asking the people 10 saddle 4 debt OF
twelve thousand dollars on the town (at
the present time) for public market.
Taking into consideration the wants OF
our city and the country around it, W..
have no more use for public market thar
wagon has for FIVE wheels.
What is public market for? II Is
intended to concentrate the trade in som
central part of the town where all tE.e
buyers and sellers can come together anes
compete for the sale or purchase of al
products Of the country.
What are the products Of the counivy
around us7 The principal products srs
cotton. and corn, neither of which eyer
comes into our market. Our fat cattle.
sheep ami hogs lii we have any1 all f,p6
market at home. Our corn, hay an,;
oats do not half supply the demand, ara
is alias rule, bought up before Il Gomez
to market.
Then what have We left to support Z
twelve thousand dollar marketi Simplg
nothingt And We never will have. un,.g
our whole system of farming ID change.
All those who wish to vote $50 for :,
market can do so, but for one will a..
rely vote against It.
The High School Bonds.-I thin
every man who has the welfare and pros.
perity of our town at heart should vc;e
Tor them; for If there is any one thin.
that is wanted in our town, 1t 10 a pnc.f
respectable and commodlous High Schoo
building. 1t will only cost us one am! :.
bali mills on the dollar. and under thu
twenty five year system of payment, if 8,
is properly managed. it will no, cos.
that.
The Water works and Electric hight,
-dn justice and equal rights to ali
should be extended through the princi,3@l
streets of the town.
The $4,000 Dollar Bonds asked for.--
cant see any reason why every ya-
should not support that measure. L, Wi;
not raise our taxes in the least. It vii
take up old bonds Of $50 900 upon whiaa
We are now paying two mills on the dol.

the members. They are fully prov

club. 1t is commonly thought
that IS is an unlucky number,

their pleasure and happy privilege
occasionally to throw open their
hospitable doors and invite their

either socially or to enjoy with the
skill of some Of their members in a
billiard or cool tournament. and on
