Colorado State Institutions.

Denver, June 17.-Secretary HagaI
of the State Board Of Charities and
Corrections, in discussing the recent
visit of the board to the state institu
tions, said yesterday that the thing
that most impressed them was the In
ability of the state to take care OF Its
insane. The last two legislatures have
been generous and the new buildings
at the institution are only recently
completed, but they are not enough
The day the board was there there
were 761 inmates, of whom more than
700 are declared to be incurable. The
place is worked to its capacity right
now and the county hospitals are full
of persons who should be at the asy'
lum.
The condition at the State Peniten'
tiary was satisfactory. in SO far as the
management is concerned. There are
72l prisoners. But two were in the
hospital the day the board visited /;
these had some slight ailments. This
is remarkable, considering that the
men have to be confined SO closely.

CAPITAL PUNISHMENT
ANDREWS AND ARNOLD HANGED
Murderers Of Mrs. YounsbIood at Den
yer Exoiate Their Crime on
the Scaffold.

Canon City, Colo. June l7.-Fred
Arnold and Newton Andrews were
hanged last night in the execution
house of the Colorado State Peniten-
tiary in the presence of thirteen wit
nesses. The execution was quiet anu
successful in every detail.
At S:22 O'Clock Newton Andrews
mounted the scaffold, dressed in
plain black suit and wearing button
hole bouquet of roses gathered from
the penitentiary garden.
Although somewhat weak and trem-
bling, he stepped upon the platform
without faltering.
When asked if he had any statement
to make, he replied that he had, and in
a low but distinct voice, slightly trem-
bling with emotion, he said:
"Gentlemen-This is my last state
ment. / expect to die any moment.
What / say you can put down as abso-
lutely true. On the occasion of the
death OF Mrs. Youngblood Arnold, Pc
tiers and | went to a dance at Peters
burg / was drunk that night and lay
in the bottom of the buggy in stupid
condition.
when we got to the Youngblood
house the other boys pulled me out
and we went into the house. / did not
realize what was going on, but soon
/ heard shots fired. l pulled my gun
and fired once through the ceiling.
That was the only shot | fired. After
ward Arnold told me that he had laid
out in the Youngblood yard close to
the house with a gun, waiting for the
woman to come out, and that he ex-
pected to kill her."
After making this statement he added
that he had nothing further to say.
Immediately the black cap was
placed the moose was adjusted ana
while the chaplain commended the soul
of Andrews to his Maker, in an adjoin-
ing room the water was already trick
ling from a bucket which in another
minute would release the great weight
which would jerk the body of Andrews
into eternity.
When the weight dropped the boys
body shot three feet into the air and
his neck was instantly broken.
After hanging for thirty minutes life
was pronounced extinct by the three
attending physicians, and the body was
cut down.
About ten minutes after the BODY OF
Andrews was cut down, Arnold was led
out. He strobe upon the platform
with alacrity, never losing his nerve
for an instant.
When asked If he had any statement
to make he said No" and positively
refused to say anything further.
AT 9:O7 O'Clock Arnold was launched
into eternity in exactly the same man
ner as his partner.
his neck was instantly broken and
his body was allowed to hang fifty
minutes. when, life being pronounced
extinct, it was cut down and removed
to the penitentiary morgue, where the
body of Andrews had preceded 1t.

PENsIoNiNG THE AGED.
What the French Government Has
Done in the Matter.

1.-THE aged are generally held in re-
spect but not more so than in the
United States" So says United States
Consul General Gowdy at Paris in a
report in regard to the care of the
aged in France. For more than half
century the French government has
been experimenting with schemes for
pensioning the aged. but not with en-
tire success. The law now in force.
which was adopted in 1895, is not al
together satisfactory and will probably
be amended in the near future.
At the present time deposits are re-
ceived from any person, regardless OF
age, but the amount may not exceed
500 francs t$96.50) in the course of
year. An account may be opened for
child three years of age; a married
woman may deposit money without
her husbands consent. At any age
between fifty and sixty-five Tor earlier
in case of permanent disability to
work. the depositor may claim his an
nuity, which is calculated according
to the amount of his deposit and In
terest and the probabilities OF life. but
the annuity may not exceed 1.2OO
francs ($231.5O).
In rural districts the tax gatherer
is empowered to receive deposits. and
in many factories a certain percentage
is deducted from the wages and paid
to the Caisse In the workman's name.
A branch of the Caisse may be
founded in any town or village, with
the permission of the prefect OF the
department. and there are about 1900
of such branches, with nearly 100000
depositors.

and Family in Tuberculosis" At the
conclusion of his discussion DR.. Am

"First-Tuberculosi is not the fatal
disease commonly believed.
''Second-While communicable, II
can be practically innocuous by the
proper course on the part of the pa
tient.
'Third-The chief cause Of the large
mortality is late diagnosis.
''Fourth-Late diagnosis is caused
by Indifference of the patient to early
symptoms and carelessness on the part
of the physician consulted.
"Fifth-By thorough systematic in
struction of the patient, better results
can be accomplished than by medica'
ton.
"Sixth-Instruction of patient, fam

on their part of the rules laid down
will practically rob the disease of its

Remarkable Cure Of Dropsy by Dodd's
Kidney Pills.

Sedgwick, Ark, June 19.-The case
of w. S. Taylor's little son is looked
upon by those interested in medical
matters as one of the most wonderful
on record In this connection his faith
er makes the following statement:
Last September my little boy had
dropsy; his feet and limbs were swol-
len to such an extent that he could
not walk or put his shoes on. The
treatment that the doctors were giving
him seemed to do him no good, and
two or three people said his days
were short, even the doctors. two of
the best in the country told me he
would not get better. | stopped their
medicine and at once sent for Dodd's
Kidney Pills. gave him three Pills a
day, one morning, noon and night for
eight days; at the end of the eighth
day the swelling was all gone, but to
give the medicine justice, l gave him
eleven more pills. / used thirty-fve
Pills in all and he was entirely cured.

child's life. When the thirty-five Pills
were given him, he could run, dance

After fever, such as typhoid or scar
let, has run its full course there remains
the recovery of strength. The tonic that
will most rapidly increase the red cor
puscles i'll the blood is the one that will
most quickly restore color to the pale
cheeks, strength to the weak muscles.
and elasticity to the sluggish nerves. So
far nothing has ever been produced su-
perior to DIR. Williams Pink Pills for
this purpose.
Miss Midendorf had been i'll with
typhoid fever for fourteen weeks. She
had a good physician who carried her
safely through the critical stages. When
he left, nothing remained to be done ex-
cept to build up her strength, which was
very feeble, and he gave her some pre-
scriptions for that purpose. Here, how
ever, she met with disappointment.
"I took the doctors tonics," she says,
"for two months after had recovered
from the fever, but they did not do me
the good 1 looked for. My strength came
back SO slowly that scarcely seemed to
be making any progress at all. just
then 1 read in book thrown in our
yard some striking testimonials showing
what wonderful blood-buildcrs and
strength -givers DIR. Williams Pink Pills
are. l got box of them soon after
this and after l had taken only about
half of them 1 could see a very great i'm

In cases of debility due to overwork they
minister fresh strength and overcome

for anpmia or bloodlessness. They are
particularly helpful to girls on the verge
of womanhood. They meet all the re-
