Details Of the accident became gener-

Poughkeepsie who is now in Lebanon
hospital, dying from burns and scalds.
Three men who jumped from the train
in the tunnel were lying unconscious at
the track side when Beyo last saw
them. What happened to them is a mat
ter of conjecture. The accident is said
to hove been due to a lack of ventila-

started the locomotive. The shock
knocked Deyo weak and dizzy off his

BAILEY TO SEND PICTURE.
Win Be Put in the Executive Room
With Others.

Governor Hoch today received a letter
from Ex-Governor Bailey stating that
he would within a short time, send to
the executive offices a picture of himself
to be hung ON the walls of the office
along with the other ex-governors Of
the state.
Mr.. Bailey says in his letter that he
has been waiting for Governor Stanley
to send in his picture, as he did not con
slider it appropriate that Governor Stan
ley's picture should be received last.
Governor Stanley served before Cover
nor Bailey, and would naturally be ex-
pected to have his picture first hung.
This puts at rest the venerable old
much angered at his defeat for re-eIec-
ton that he would not permit his pic
ture to be hung in the office of the gov
ernOr so long as HOch occupied those
quarters. There is already one excellent
picture Of Governor Bailey in the rooms
of the State Historical society, present
ed to the society by former Adiutant
General S. H. Kelsey.
1t is probable that there win be a
complete Encouragement of the pictures
of ex-governors which now hang in the
office of the chief executive of the state
All of the pictures of territorial COVER
nors will be taken out of the middle
room occupied by the private secretary,
lures Of the governors of the state will
then have more room for display than
they have at present The collection is
getting so large that the walls are
crowded. With the exception of Gov
ernor Bailey, the state now has COM
plete collection of all its former COVER
nOrs, both territorial and state.

FIRE UNDER THEM.
Passengers of a Ferryboat Thrown
Panic in NIid-Stream.

New York, Dec. 23.-While the
Delaware, Lackawanna & Western
ferryboat Montclair was crowded from
end to end on trip from the foot
of Christopher street to Hoboken. fire
burst from beneath the middle of the
row Of seats in the mems cabin on the
starboard side. So sudden was the
outburst of flame that those sitting on
the seats had narrow escapes from
burning. Shouts of fire sent the pas
sengers in a rush to the open ends Of
the boat, men almost pushing one an
other into the water. The panic
spread to the womens cabin which
was also crowded, there being about
1000 passengers on the boat. The
Montclair was in midstream. As quick
ly as they could make their way to
the fire extinguishers the deckhands
took them down and played on the fire
which quickly became only a smude Of
sitting smoke.
The boat was driven full speed. with
whistle shrieking. to the Hoboken
slip The passengers rushed ashore
and the fire department put out what
remained of the blaze. It is supposed
that a smoulering cigar stub commu-
nicated fire to rubbish and started the
blaze

SLOWLY STRANGLED.
Evidence That Consciousness Remains
After the Drop Falls.

Jersey City, n. J., Dec. 23.-Dr. Carl
ton Simon, who witnessed the hanging
yesterday Of Edwin F. Tapley, jr, de-
clares that the murderer gave the pre-
arranged signals in proof that he was
conscious nearly half a minute after
the trap had been sprung. DR.. Simon
said:
THE actual test on the gallows was
most successful. Tapley was absolutely
in possession of his mental faculties.
"The hands and fingers of the dang
ling body moved with convulsive con-
fractions. Then the hands fell rigid at
the Sides
Five seconds passed and then Tapley
began the signals agreed upon between
US
''The first signal came as Tapley hold
ing the left hand extended rigidly down
ward, raised the right slowly as far as
the bonds permitted him and made three
forefnger. Then, with clear determined
effort the dying man lowered his right
hand, held it for an instant rigidly
against his thigh and slowly raising the
left hand, repeated the signal.
''At the third contraction of the left
hand there seemed barely strength in the
dying fingers to carry. out the agreed
programme. To any man of scientific
knowledge, viewing this test with a. full
knowledge of all the governing condi-
tions the following conclusions are in
evitable:
Namely. that Tapley was alive and
in conscious torture for nearly half a
minute after the fall of the drop
THAT he was literally strangled to
death in the name of the law"

annihilates him. 1t is not so. Iis too
cruel It impeaches the sanity Of the
universe. The longing for immortal
ity was given to man not to torture
him, but that he might always have
his eyes upIifted the soul a-thirst
for the magnificent onward life.
In my Fathers house there are
many mansions 10 nave lived and
died in this faith; is to have lived the
life of true man and to have died
the death of a sage Such a life and
such a death was that OF our friend,
Edward Wilder.
Such an hour as this is least fitted
for either blame or eulogy. If 2. life
has been a bruised and helpless thing
in a community, no euphemistic words
over the casket viii answer If a life
has blessed and enriched friends and
community, the fact speaks elOquently
in human hearts and needs no VOicing.
Words of eulogy for such a life are
as useless as to hang lamps out in or
der to see the sunlight The light
needs no proOf-no praise, The life
of Edward Wilder needs no eulogy, no
praise, from my lips. The great archi-
tect, Sir Christopher Wrenn, beautified
and enriched London with most Of the
great buildings which are the adnira-
ton of that city today. When one
asked: Where is his monument ?''
the answer came: Look about you.
All London is his monument" Even
so the eulogy OF Edward Wilder is to
be found in the best Institutions OF
Topeka. Te believe that such a life
as this could GO out in nOthingnes
outrages every instinct of our nature.
To believe that it has passed beyond
the doors into new mansions satisfies
satisfies. Aye, and it tallies with the
words Of Him who spoke as man never

There has been a rgmor current that

would enter the race for sheriff Mr..
Stahl is now living on his farm at Au-
burn and is seldom seen in Topeka, but
some of his friends in the city have
urged that he enter the race for sheriff.
A report now comes from Auburn that
Mr.. StahI will under no circumstances
enter the contest for sheriff. It is be-
neved, however, that he viii be induced
to enter the county treasurer fight. He
served two terms in that Office with
credit to himself and this fact is being
used to induce him to enter this con-
test.
