TRAIN DITCHED

NORTH YAKIMA, April 22.-Northern
Pacific passenger train No. A. eastbound,
in charge of Conductor Preston, was
wrecked two miles west of Umtanum,
Yakima county, yesterday afternoon, and
Express Messenger Adams was seriously
injured.
The mail, baggage, express and two fish
cars were completely turned over and the
smoker was turned over half way. The
day coach left the tracks, but remained
right side up. The diner and Pullman
remained firm.
The cause of the accident is not yet
known. Investigation leads some of the
officials to believe broken rail was re-
sponsible
The engine was No. PSI, in charge of
Engineer Patchet. 1t turned crosswise of
the track.
A new track has been laid around the
wreck to let the North Coast limited pass.
The train was running at about 40 miles
an hour and the passengers were badly
shaken up.

thrust the barrels of the death dealing
weapons
After a rehearsal, during which the sheT-
if gave the signal to shoot by dropping
his handkerchief, all was in readiness.
Then the spectators filed in and took
their places. Finally Rose was led forth
frem the death cell. As he emerged into
the open air it was seen that his eyes
were bandaged. With a prison guard at
each elbow he was piloted to the chair and
ordered to take his seat. As soon as he
was seated straps were passed. over his
shoulders, around his waist and across his
wrists. He was firmly pinioned to the
chair Then DIR. Young the prison physi-
cian, stepped forward and pinned a piece
of white paper with black bullseye in the
center Immediately over the wretched
mans heart
lie then stepped back, nodded to the
sheriff and the next instant the five rifles
spoke and Rose had paid the penalty for
his crime.
While this was going on little Elmer,
all unconscious of the fate of his inhuman
father, was playing with his toys up at
the orphanage on the east side.

TROOPS WILL CAMP
AT AMERICAN LAKE

OLYMPIA, April 22-The plans for the
JOINT maneuvers of the militia of Idaho.
Oregon and Washington and all of the
regular army troops of the department of
the Columbia have been approved by Cen
eral Macarthur, commanding the division
OF the Pacific. The plan adopted is that
made by General Funston and names Am
erican lake as the place of the encamp-
ment. This means that four or five thous-
and troops will be assembled at American
lake during the month of July.
The only contingency that might prevent
the carrying out of the plan is adverse
action by congress upon the army appro-
priation bill, but as the item covering the
expense involved has already passed the
senate, it is not likely that the appro.
priation will fail. 1t is anticipated that
much good will result to the militia of
the three states by this training with
the regular army.

Wife MURDERER PAYS
THE PENALTY TODAY

SALT LAKE. April 22.-Frank Rose,
the wife murderer, was executed today.
He received four bullets in the region Of
the heart
Before his execution. Rose confessed that
he had spent the last IA years commit
ting crimes, from robbery to revolving
murders, in St Louis aud Chicago, the last
being in San Francisco, where he killed
companion and threw the body into the
bay. He went into details in telling of
each crime. The officers, however, doubt
the truth Of the stories.
The crime Tor which Rose was shot to
death by the officers Of the law in the
yard OF the Utah state prison this morn
ing was the murder OF his wife in this city
on Christmas day last. The story OF
the tragedy is grewsome one. According
to the story told by the murderer he
threatened to to kin his wife because she
was unfaithiul. His wife agreed that death

probably, not notice the change, but the
eyes OF the experts are not easily deceived.
The new style of skirts. which will shortly
enter upon their migration from Paris to
New York, are fiat in front, plated. tuck
ed or gathered around the back and sides
and have two deep ruffles, headed with
plnked quilting. In some cases there is
deep puff at the head of a planted ruffie
of equal depth. The materials used for
these skirts will mostly be of soft char
acter.
Among the features which will be re-
vived by the new fashion is the perfectly
round turnover collar of embroidered
batiste. 1t can be worn on the smartest
and most elaborate frocks instead of the
stock. 1t turns directly over the neck
band and is held together in front bv
small brooch. either containing a minia-
ture, or made of coral. Another novelty
in harmony with the 1860 style is the sur
phce blouse, which is arranged in the most
graceful folds for afternoon and dinner
gowns and filed in with a V-shaped vest
of some fine old lace, leaving the neck bare.
In place of ruffles of lace or lingerie en-
broidered batiste will be worn in the
sleeves. 1t seems that embroidered batiste
and handsome qualities of English en-
broidery will be used extensively. The
fashion in laces seems to have undergone
radical change and only the finest and
most delicate kinds of lace seem to be IN
favor. The coarser kinds and drawn work
are becoming more and more neglected
As the season progresses it becomes quite
evident that there is a gradual return to
the overskirts which years ago, were so
fashionable. Excepting in severe tailor

his revolver from beneath his pillow Rose

and she lay there an hour before she died.
Before leaving Rose placed the s-year-old
baby, Elmer, in her arms. Then locking
the door, went out and spent his money IN
whisky. For two days he was drunk and
even sold the clothes he stood in for liquor.
After fifty hours he walked into the police
station and gave himself up. Upon the
officers breaking into the room little Elmer
was found cuddled up ON the bed beside the
bloody body Of his mother. The child
was half frozen and nearly insensible.
Rose stated that he did not care to com

upon being found guilty was given the
