The bill was reported without expression
of opinion. y viva VoCe vote was taken
but not declared when Senator Emery ad-
dressed the chair and spoke briefly in IA
Vor of the bill. He called it u relic of
past barbarous times, and said the same
reasons that can be brought up in behalf
Of capital punishment could be used in
behalf of the torturos OF the Inquisition
Senator Annis opposed the bill as not
even being consistent as it does not do
away with all death penalties but leaves
lit in certain instances. He waxed elo-
quent in denunciaton of discrimination
which would let man off with life i'm
prsonment who kills husband in order
to debauch the wife while a person who
commits an indecent assault on woman
and kills her shall be hung. Senator Wal

The bodies of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles
Fair, who were killed in an automobile
accident near Evereaux, France were
embalmed and placed in coffins, after
which they were shipped to Paris,
whence they will be taken to San
Francisco.
The chauffeur said Friday that before
the accident he noticed the tire of the
left hind wheel of the machine was
debated, and that the rim of the wheel
was rubbing on the ground. He told
Mr.. Fair, who tried to stop, and the
accident followed Peasants who saw
the automobile say it was impossible
to distinguish it's color. The firm that
sold Mr.. Fair the automobile last June
say he paid Sl2, 900 for it, and ordered
another at the same price to be of sixty
horsepower. The second machine was
almost ready for delivery.
Mr.. Fair was passionately fond of
automobiling, and never missed day
on the road. Several times he at
tempted TO beat the one-hour record.

CHARLES FAIR AND WIFE KILLED BY AUTOMOBILE
Machine Running at the Rate of 81
Miles an Hour When 1t Suddenly
Collapsed. Throwing Occu-
pants to the Ground.

Mr. and Mrs. Charles w. Fair, who
were related to Mrs w. X. Vanderbilt
Jr. Miss Virginia Fair,) were return
ing to Paris from Trouville Thursday
when their automobile swerved and
crashed into tree fifteen miles from
Paris. Both were killed. The chauffeur
became insane as a consequence Of The
shock.
Mr.. and Mrs. Fair had been staying
at Trouville during the week. They
had a very fast forty-fve horse pow err
automobile, which attracted consider
able attention and with which they
were highly pleased. Mr.. Fair had
been from Trouvile to Paris and back
again in one day with the machine.
The accident occur red almost in front
of the Chateau Buisson du Mai. The
Fairs intended to dine and spend the
night in Paris and return to Trouville
for lunch the following day.
The wife OF the gatekeeper of the
chateau was the only witness of the
disaster. She says she noticed big
red automobile coming along the road
at a tremendous pace. Suddenly some
thing happened and the heavy machine
slid sidewise from the right to the left
side of the road for about sixty yards.
1t then dashed up an EN- bankment,
turned complete somersault and
lad int Il al. IL,
the gate of the chateau. The au;omo-
bile was completely wrecked. The
front axle was broken and other parts
of the machine were smashed, includ- |
ing the steering gear. /
When the automobile turned over the
wife of the gatekeeper says she saw
Mr. and Mrs. Fair thrown high in the
air and fall with a heavy thud to the
ground. The chauffeur, who was sit
ting behind the Fairs, was precipitated
into ditch. He staggered to his feet,
calling for help.
The gatekeeper's wife rushed to his
aid and helped him in extricating Mr..
and Mrs. Fair, who were buried be-
meath the wrecked machine and in the
last throes of death. Both had sus-
tanned CHASTITY injuries and were al
most unrecognizable. Mr.. Fairs head
had been crushed in, while his wife's
skull was split.
The accident was evidently due to
the bursting of tire. At the time it
occurred the automobile, which was
capable of running seventy-four miles
IN hour, was going at the rate of sixty
Two miles an hour. =
