Seventeenth century methods still
prevail in Prussia in the matter of the
execution of criminals. The man SEN
fenced there to suffer capital punish
ment is led TO the fatal block and his
head is chopped off with identically the
same sort Of an ak as that which was
used to put period TO the career of
Charles |. in the tower of London on
that fateful Goth of January 252 years
ago. Practically the only difference be-
tween the twentieth century execution
and that of the time of Cromwell is that
the condemned is not put to death pub
licly.
In many parts Of the German empire
the guillotne has taken the place of the
gallows and the block, but in Prussia old
fashioned justice clings tenaciously to
the old fashions. and not the rope nor
the automatic knife nor the power of
electricity has been able to dispace the

modern sentiment is in the garb of the

he appears at the execution CARRIED in

TO PROTECT THE MussEL.

The bill which Congressman Rum
pie has introduced in the house for
the protection of the mussel in the
Mississippi river should receive the
support of every congressman along
the great river. The mussel needs
protection. Every manufacturer OF
pearl buttons says that at the pres

it will be only little while till the

IMPORTANT LEGISLATIVE WORK.
Representative M. ]. Furry in Alden
Times
A great many important matters
will surely come up for consideration.
There is the matter of the redistrict-
ing of the state III congressional,
senatorial and representative districts
and the, s---~~northwest has grown
so ralyrtIIy lately that something will
have to- be done. Then the matter
of the railroad assessments. and in
fact the whole matter of assessments
is to be given full hearing and 1t Is
to be hoped that some satisfactory
conclusions will be reached. Several
bills for the improvement of our
highways have been prepared and
will be presented in few days. There
is strong movement for the utiliza-
ton of the buildings at Knoxville
which the state erected several years
ago as an industrial home for tho
blind, but which was only attended
by a very few who were to be the re-
cipients Of the state bounty in that
line. The institution was closed two
years ago and the buildings have been
standing idle. The most feasible plan
so far sugguested is to establish a
Normal School there. Almost every
officer IL. the state wants an increase
in salary to keep pace with the ad-
vance In the cost Of living. There
will be 81 whole lot of bills introduced
to catch the Iaboling mans vote.
Womans suffrage will come up early
in the session with good chances of
success this time.

Richardson home to learn. if they could. at
whose door lay their fellow-citizen's death.
But the investigation. then informally be-

BEFORE CORONER.

inquiry probed into Flies movements up
on Christmas Eve. Evidence was obtained
that the young man was asleep in the
rooms Of the Owl Club. an organization
which occupied a building facing the Court
house, when Richardson was shot. Crowley,
who had dined at the Richardson home.
was in 4 rear room OF Lou Meyers saloon
at the same time. according to the testi-
mony Of several persons.
Mrs. Kerr told that she had heard a
buggy drive to the Richardson house. then
drive away, and that, in the interval. a
sound resembling a pistol shot drifted to
her ears. Three weeks after Richardson's
death a rusted pistol was found hidden I'M
der a sidewalk near the Richardson home.
The weapon. 1t is believed. is that with
which the dead man was shot. but its owner
was not located. and the discovery do not
materially help to clear the case.
The Coroner's verdict held that Richard
son met his death at the hands of a per-
son or persons unknown to the jury, but
known to the widow.
