day. The crime was committed on a
railroad train December 80, 1901. With
them were VIII Blackburn and q. NJ.
Phipps. All were intoxicated, They
shot and killed G.. NJ. Wray, an engineer,
also passenger. Blackburn, helped by
his previous good character, escaped with
a life sentence. Phipps did not parti(i-
pate in the shooting. Yesterday morning
before the time for the execution both
men appeared defiant, Cooke especially
being very abusive to every one around
him. while both cursed continually
After the doath warrant had been read to
the men in their cells, Cooke yelled
through the window to the great crowd
which had gathered outside to witness the
execution. Oh you, don't be I'M

sheriff and the doomed men mounted the

DRANK CARBoLIC ACID.

Despondent over family troubles. Mrs.
Minnie Meyers, wife of Charles Meyers,
residing at 424 NJ street southeast,
Washington, committed suicide at her
home last night about $3.50 o'clock by
drinking carbolic acid. Mr. and Mrs.
Meyers, it is said, have had frequent
quarrels, and Mrs. Meyers, it is alleged,
had been brooding over her troubles
considerably. Yesterday, it is under
stood, there was another misunderstand-
ing between the couple. In the evening
after supper, Mr.. Meyers went out,
leaving his wife alone in the house. A
few minutes after he had gone Mrs.
Meyers went out on her front porch,
and showing him tumbler and bot
tie, said to Mr.. James Cook, her next
door neighbor 81 am going to drink
this, | am tired of life" Mr.. Cook told
her she had better not, but did not
imagine she was in earnest. A little
while after Miss Ole Knowles, a friend
of Mrs. Meyers, who has been ire-
quent caller upon her, was passing the
house and heard screams. She ran into
the house and found Mrs. Meyers lying
on the floor of her room with the glass
in her hand from which she had taken
the fatal dose. Her lips were horribly
sealded by the acid, and she had sew
eral burns where the acid spattered
on her hand. She was still conscious
and told Miss Knowles what she had
done. Miss Knowles lOOsened her
clothes, gave Mrs. Myers some warm
water to drink, and then rushed out Of
the house to seek policeman. 1t was
some time before she found one, When
she returned TO the house Mrs. Meyers
was unconscious. Policemen Lucas and
Raedy, who had been told of the case,
sent for the Fifth precinct patrol wagon.
They went to the house and did every
thing to make the woman comfortable.
As soon as the patrol arrived Mrs.
Myers was hurried to the Providence
Hospital, but before she reached that
institution she was dead. The dead
womans mother, who lives in Virginia,
has been telegraphed for. Mr.. Meyers
is a machinist employed at the navy
yard. The suicide was 35 years of age.

A WEAK HEART.
Hill Climbing or Stair Mounting
VIII Strengthen the Organ.

1t Is not many years ago that the be-
lief prevailed that a sufferer from
heart disease was I'm constant peril
whenever hc moved and that the nearer
he approached absolute rest the better
Il WAS for his heart. This is still true
In respect TO certain forms OF heart dis
ease-those due 10 actual disease or de-
generation OF the heart muscles-but
when the disease is in the valves, as 1t
Is In the majority OF cases, the modern
teaching is that properly regulated ex-
ercise is beneficial. This is founded
upon the common sense view that the
heart is like other muscles in that IL
can be strengthened by exercise to
meet increased calls upon II.
When the valves OF a pump get out
OF order, ii requires greater force to
move n given quantity OF water. II
this force can be applied, It will make
up for the defect in the valves. The
same principle holds good in the case
OF the diseased heart; the valvular de-
feet must be made good-"cOmpensa
ton" is the medical term for this proc
ess-by increased strength In the heart
muscle.
The heart must be able not only TO
meet the ordinary, everyday extra
strain--this it does automatically, as IL
were, by the unaided efforts Of nature.
but II must be stronger than neces-
sary, Just as 1t is In health, TO meet
some extra strain caused by illness, a
sudden nervous shock or some abso-
lutely necessary exertion. 1t is evident,
therefore, that a diseased heart must
to assure the safety of the patient be
strengthened beyond the requirements
OF n quiet life.
This is accomplished In various ways,
but none is better for the purpose than
hill climbing or stair climbing, the for
mer for pleasant days, the latter for
bad weather. The exercise should, OF
course be taken under the direction OF
n physician, for it can easily be over
done, in which case one Of the bad con-
ditions against which It is the object
OF the exercise TO provide will be arti-
fcially produced and the heart will be
overtaxed before it is strong enough to
withstand the extra strain.-Youth's
Companion.

N Frarce a novel method OF ca

IN Frarce novel method OF catch
ing fish is being tested by anglers.
A tiny mirror is attached to the line
near the halted hook. The assump-
ton is that fish, when it sees itself
in a glass, will conclude that some
other fish is trying to carry off the
bait and will make haste to secure
the tempting morsel for itself, the
result being that it will speedily he
caught on the relentless hook. From
experiments which have been made
there seems to be some foundation
for this assumption. At any rate,
some anglers say that they catch
more fish when they use the little
mirror than they ever caught before.
