FIVE SHOCKS
Necessary to Cause Antonio
TrioIa's Death at Sing Sing.
Various Excuses Given by New York's
Chief Official Electrician.
TrioIa Convicted Of Murder of Sweet.
heart, Mamie CoreIli.

Ossining, N. Y, March 25.-Antonio
Triola was put to death in the electric
chair at Sing Sing prison, Monday. Five
shocks were necessary to cause death.
State Electrician Davis said it was
harder to kill a thin, wiry man like
Triola by the electric current than a
stout man. as in the case of the thin
man there are not enough tissues to
convey the fatal current quickly to a
vital part. Mr.. Davis also said that
Triola had thick, greasy hair, which re-
sisted the current.
Triola received the first shock at COZ
A. M. After four more shocks had
been given at brief intervals, he was
pronounced dead.
Antonio Triola shot and killed Mamie
Corelli. a young Italian girl who was a
theatrical performer in a small Ital-
ian theatre on the east side, New York
The cir had refused to marry Triola.
On the night of March 5, 1901 he lay in
wait for her and fired three shots a her
as she and her mother were on their
way HON from theatre. The girl died.
Triola fed but was captured. He was
convicted on April 20, 1901.

TWO BURNED TO DEATH
And One Seriously Injured in Board
ing House Fire at Barre, VT.

Barre, VT, May 25.-In a fire which
destroyed a boarding house, dwelling
and two barns at Barre quarries, early
today, two persons were burned to
death and one seriously injured.
The dead: Peter Martin, aged 70
years; Miss Odina Morisette, aged IA.
The injured: Annie Nicholson, badly
hurt by jumping.
The fire started at A. M, in the
Langdon boarding house owned by J.
NJ. Boutwell, of Montpelier. lie develops
that the flames were first seen in the
quarters occupied by Peter Martin, who
had been up most all night. 1t is
claimed by fellow boarders that Martin
was intoxicated and upset an oil lamp.
The fire rapidly spread throughout
the house and for a time there was a
panic among the so inmates. Men and
women rushed for doors and windows
in their mad haste to escape, all eff
fects being left behind Martin was in
such condition, it is said, that he was
unable to get out of his room. He
persisted where he lay.
Near his quarters was q room occu-
pied by Odina Morisette, a girl of IA,
who assisted in the domestic work Of
the boarding house, and Annie Nichol-
son. another of the employees.
Miss Nicholson rushed to the window
which was three stories from the
ground and jumped. She was badly
injured but may recover. The smoke
was so dense that the Morisette girl
was undoubtedly overcome before she
could follow Miss Nicholson's example
She was burned in the building.
The flames We're in complete possess
sion of the house within a few minutes,
but nevertheless all the boarderS with
the exception of the three mentioned,
escaped without injury. The remains
of Martin and Odna Morisette were in
the ruins at noon, the embers not hav
ing cooled sufficiently to permit 4 close
search.
From the boarding house the flames
communicated to the two barns on the
premises and to Il small dwelling house,
also owned by Mr.. Boutwell,, and occu-
pied by a workman. These buildings
were lcvelled, the occupants of the
dwelling escaping with some of their
effects. Most of the male inmates of
the boarding house were employed in
the granite Quarres and as all could
not save their tools and other property
their loss is severe The loss on the
buildings and contents amounts to
$4,000 against which there is an in
s.Irance of $500.

A BENEFIT CONCERT
For Prof. w. F. Morse at kent's Hill,
Evening of June 9.

Kents Hill, Me-, May 25.-(Special)
Louis B. Morse, son of Prof. w. F.
Morse of Kent's Hill, Me-, died at the
Maine General Hospital, Portland, Sat
urday evening, May %. In February
1902, While skating with a party of
students, he fell on the ice, striking
heavily on the side of his head. The
accident untitled him for school duties.
He grew steadily worse, brain trouble
was indicated, and at the commence
ment of the fall term he was taken
away for treatment.
Recently a surgical operation was
performed at the Maine General Hos
pital at Portland. The inside lining
of the skull was found fractured, and
the pressure of this fractured part on
the brain has been the cause of the
long illness.
In the latter part of the fall term
Mrs. Morse was taken sick, and in the
early part of the winter term the
daughter, Miss Theo, was taken seri-
ously ill, and both have since been off
duty, under the care of a physician.
The expense necessitated by this
family sickness has been great, more
in fact than the entire income of Dr.
Morse for the entire year.
The many friends of the family de-
sire to assist DIR. Morse in this time
of special need. w. T.. Bachelor OF
New York, a former student, has
planned benefit concert to be given
at Kcnt's Hill, the evening of June Q.
The purpose of the fund is to raise
fund to present to DR.. Morse. Mr..
Racheller will be assisted by Mrs.
Bachelor, Mrs. Spofford all former
students, and by some members of the
Boston Symphony Orchestra. The ser
vices of Mr.. Bachelor and the assisting
artists will be given. The faculty and
students at the Hill heartily endorse
the plan and will vigorously cooper
ate to make it a success.
A subscription to the concert fund
has been started in New York City
headed by Mr.. Bachelor and o. Q.
Howard, also Il former student with
$40 subscriptions.
The price of reserved seats for this
concert has been fixed at 81 each. 1t
is expected that many pupils and
friends of Dr. Morse and the school
will purchase tickets or make subscrip-
tons to the concert fund. Prof. Albin
G. Russell, Kcnt's Hill, Me, has been
made treasurer of this fund, and all
communications relating to tickets or
subscriptions should be sent to him.
He will send receipt for all cash re-
ceived, and this receipt can be ex-
changed for a reserved seat for the
concert at the Hill on or before June 6.

WAS HE BRIBED?
Post Office Officials Round Up
an Assistant Attorney
For the Alleged Acceptance Of a
Bride in fixing" a Case.
Postmaster General Payne Says An.
other Arrest Is to Follow.

Washington, May 25.-Postmaster
General Payne, today, summarily dis
missed Daniel V. Miller, assistant at
tOrney in the office of the assistant at
torney general for the post office de-
partment, for accepting bride in con-
nection with the case of John ]. Ryan
81 Co., charged with fraudulent use of
the mails. A warrant has been issued
for Miller'S arrest.
Another warrant has been issued for
the arrest of man who is charged
with being the partner or n go-between
in the transaction. a post office in
spector has gone West from Cincinnati
to effect the arrest, which is expected
to occur, tonight or tomorrow. The
bride is alleged to have been accepted
at Cincinnati last December.
Miller came here from Terre Haute,
: Ind, about two years ago. He was
appointed by Former Assistant Attor-
ney General James N. Tyner.l The
charge against Miller has been under
investigation for three months. The
Ryan Company was a turf investment
concern, with offices at st. Louis and
Covington, Ky. Its methods and work.
ing operations are said to be similar
to those of the Arnold Company, which
has figured conspicuously in the post
office investigation. The inspectors
have been quietly at work on the case
and action was delayed so that they
might get together all the papers and
evidence, which, in their opinion, was
necessary. The post office inspector in
charge, w. f. Vickery at Cincinnati,
and Post Office Inspector r. NJ. Fulton
at st. Louis, recently were given full
charge of the case. Complaint was
made by Inspector Fulton before a
United States commissioner in Cincin-
natl, Saturday and a warrant was then
issued for Miller and for the other
party. Tonight. Miller is in the GUS
tody of a post office inspector and his
formal arrest will follow, tomorrow
morning.
The Ryan Company was the beneti
'ciary under decision of the assistant

THEY WILL FIGHT.
Washington County People Do
Not Like Railroad Deal.
Paid Their Money in Good Faith and
Expect Promised Results.
A Chapter to Be Fought Out in the
Open Court.

Calais, Me-, May 25.-The people of
Washington county have employed
eminent counsel to defend their interest
in the bill pending before the United
States circuit court at Portland for
foreclosure proceedings against the
Washington County Railroad and the
appointment of a receiver brought by
the Central Trust Co. of New York. The
county holds 100000 preferred stock in
the railroad. At a mass meeting
speeches were made denouncing the
course of the bondholders.
Hon. George Nj. Hanson affirmed that
an agreement was made by which
Washington county was to contribute
its last spec geo when the road was com
plcted, to be used as a reserve found tC
pay the interest on the bonds until the
road was on a paying basis, which al
the time of building was expected to be
two or three years. The 100000 was
paid before the road was completed and
1882 900 of the sum was used to build d
bridge and repair the road bed on the
Princeton branch.
Mr.. Hanson holds this being a viola
ton of the terms the claim of the bond
holders that no interest has been PAID
is invalidated, and he feels confident
the United States circuit court will not
authorize a decree of foreclosure
Mr.. Hanson contended that an ac-
counting of all money can be demanded
and better terms secured for the coun-
ty than the recent offer of President
Whitridge of $4,000.

MEAL TIM CONSCIENCE.
What do the Children Drink?

There are times when mother OF
father feeds the youngsters something
that they know children should
not have. Perhaps it is some rich des-
scrt but more often it is tea or coffee.
Some compromise by putting in sc
much hot water that there is not much
tea or coffee left but even that little is
pretty certain to do harm. 1t leads to
bigger doses. Then comes the coffee
ills.
1t is better to have some delicious,
hot. food drink that you can take your
self and feed to your children conscious
that it will help and strengthen and
never hurt them. A lady of Oneida n.
Y. says: Il used coffee many years in
spite of the conviction that it injured
my nervous system and produced my
nervous headaches. While visiting a
friend 1 was served with Postum but it
was not well made. still l determined
to get package and try it myself and
after following directions carefully the
result was all that could be DESIRED a
delicious. finely favored, richly colored
beverage. Since I quit coffee Postum
has worked wonders for me.
My husband who always suffered
from kidney trouble when drinking
coffee quit the coffee and took up
Postum with me and since drinking
Postum he has felt stronger and better
with no indication of kidney trouble.
You may be sure l find it great
comfort to have warm drink at meals
that | can give my children with clear
conscience that it will help them and
not hurt them as coffee and tea would. ="
