M'CUE DIES ON GALLOWs.
Mounted GaIlows After Confession and Was
Strsngled to Death.

Charlottesville, Va, February 10.-J.
Samuel McCue, former mayor of this
city, was hanged at the county Jail at
1884 this mornig for the murder of his
wife on Sunday, September a, last. Nc
Cue was pronounced dead nineteen
minutes after the trap was sprung.
After the execution, a signed confession
was given out by his spiritual advisers as
follows:
~. Samuel McCue states this morning
in our presence and requested us to make
public the statement, as he did not want
to leave the world with suspicion resting
on any human being other than himself,
that he alone was responsible for the
deed, impelled to it by an evil power be-
yond his control, and he recognized his
sentence as just"
McCue listened calmly to the reading
OF the death warrant this morning, and
when Sergeant Rogers asked: "Do you
think that if give you my arm you
would be able TO walk to the scaffold?n
He replied calmly: ~ can walk without
your aid" On the way he stumbled
once or twice and the officers proffered
assistance. 1t was not needed, however.
There was no weakness. McCue had
merely slipped upon the frozen snow.
Watched by the silent crowd of per-
haps thirty people, McCue mounted the
scaffold. BY this time the sunlight was
streaming across the housetops around
him. Not muscle of his face moved.
Sergeant Rogers and the two guards
assembled the scaffold with him. The
prisoner was placed over the trap, his
arms pinioned and his ankles strapped.
, The black gown was folded around him
and-the moose adjusted.
Before he placed the rope about Nc
Cues neck, Sergeant Rogers put his arm
over the condemned mans shoulder and
whispered something to him. When
everything was ready, Mr.. Rogers again
spoke to McCue, asking him if he had
any statement to make. ''None at all !"
was his answer. The trap was sprung,
and 10 minutes later MoCue was pro-
nounced dead of strangulation. His
neck was not broken.
All this while NcCue stood without
moving. The hope that he might make
some etatement before he died finally
passed away. The oowl dropped over
his head and he had seen his last of this
world. Not a word had he uttered. The
guard took hold of the rope that was to
release the trap. Rogers, standing alone
upon the scaffold beside McCue, turned

Woman Killed a PeddIer.

Charlotte, N c., February 11.--A kill
ing took place near here this morning
about 6 O'Clock. A peddler named
Greenburg frequently visited the home
of j. d. Bivens, in Dorchester county,
South Carolina, up to about week ago,
when he made advances to assault Mrs.
Bivens and was arrested. He promised
to pay fine and leave the country II
they would free him, which was done.
He came back and entered the Bivens
house and made the same advances
towards Mrs. Bivens, when she shot him
with shot gun, the load entering his
neck. The scene of the killing is about
10 miles from Summerville anu 25 miles
from st. George, the county seat of Dor
chester. Magistrate Cummings was
notified of the killing and summoned q
jury of inquest, verdict being justifiable
homicide. Mr.. Bivens was In Columbia
at the time attending the Legislature.

his back and lifted his hand The trap
fell and MoCue was hanging in space.
In order to thwart the curiosity of the
morbidly inclined, the sheriff kept secret
the time of the execution. After the
execution one of MoCue's spiritual ad-
visers said:
"Mr. McCue left this world with feel
ings of bitterness toward no human be-
ing. He was earnest and tender this
morning in our presence. He offered to
God fervent prayer for his family, for
his brothers and their wives, for his sis
ter, for his uncles and aunts, for his
children. He called them each by name
He invoked the blessing of Almighty
God upon them ALL"
The body will be taken to Crooks
ville," near Alton, for burial. y.
THE FINAL STRUGGLE.
With the setting of yesterdays sun,
faded the last ray of hope that shone
but family on the pathway of j. Samuel
McCue, during the previous day, and ali
efforts to save him from the gallows
having failed, he paid the penalty for the
awful crime of wife murder after the
hour of O'Clock. The day was full of
thrilling and soul-stirring scenes, both in
Richmond and in Charlottesville, and
last night In Charlottesville, where the
innocent life-blcod of his wife was
spilled, the saddest picture of the entire
tragedy was witnessed, when the con-
demned man, with but few hours to
live, said farewell to his children and
relatives, and then returned to his Bible
and to communion with his God.
Three final efforts had been made, all
simultaneously, it may be said, to pre-
vent the hanging of McCue,- but one
after another in quick succession they
proved as fruitless and unavaling as did
his defense, when he stood at the bar of
Justice in the city whose richest honors
he had enjoyed
His little daughter. Ruby, weeping as
though her heart would break, appealed
to the Governor in person for the life of
her environed father, and then, with her
uncle and aunt, turned her face ome-
ward, to bear the sorrowful stor. into
his lonely coll, that no shadow of hope
was left and to say farewell to him for
ever.
1t was early in the day that the first
adverse news was heard, and then it came
at frequent intervals, until at night,
Governor Montague issued a statement
sealing the doom of the man, declaring
that mindful of his public duty, he could
not set aside the Judgment of the courts.
Previous to this, Justice Harlan, of the
United States Supreme Court, had denied
the writ of error sought, declaring that
no Federal questions were involved, and
IL there had been errors at the trial, they
were not for the Federal courts to review.
The insanity plea fell to the ground
and was never brought officially to the
attention of the Governor, because the
expert physicians sent to Charlottesville
failed to see the prisoner.

There is lesson in the work of the
thrifty farmer. He knows that the
bright sunshine may last but day and
he prepares for the showers which are
so liable to follow. So it should be
with every household. Dysentery,
diarrhoea and cholera morbus may
attack some member of the home with
out warning. Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrboea Remedy, which
is the best known medicine for these
diseases, should always be kept at
hand. as immediate treatment is
necessary, and delay may prove fatal.
