A boy murderer, Sydney Brugger, 10 years
old, has been caught in Hillsboro Oregon.
He confessed to having killed W. W. Booth
for the money which he heard jingling In his
pockets 1t is said that Brugger is a de-
generate, but has never before shown harm
full tendencies. No one knows when degen-
crate children will show "harmful tenden-

Chinese All Same Mclean.

American newspapers are publishing an
account of a horrible execution in China.
The victim s gold bracelet was taken off and
he was slowly carved He uttered not
sound Finally, his head was cut off. His
heart and other members were cut out and
brought to the Viceroy, who had the heart
opened and after pouring it's blood out drank
of it, then passed it to another official. Some
refused to drink The viceroy retained the
liver to take with him to Canton. Amerl-
cans shudder as they read this account and
pity one of China s Greatest Viceroys. In
stinctively the word barbaric comes to ones
mind And yet why SO? America has had
in the recent past acts in her South land not
one whit less barbaric. Southerners have
pushed screw drivers and cOrkscreWs into
living men and women and pulled out great
hunks of quivering flesh. They have cut Off
a certain member of men s bodies and COM
pelled their victims to chew and swallow
them, they have slashed off fingers, ears, toes
and patches of skin to take home as SOU
venirs and actually fused among themselves
, over the possession of them. Ii the Vlceroy
of China wished to be quite American, 9 don't
you knowF he ought not to have finally cut
his victim s head off, but just saturated the
torn, bleeding body with oil and burnt it.
He missed something which Southerers
seem to like-breathing into their lungs the
odor of human flesh broiling in hot licking
flames The Chinaman in all his barbarity
is all the same Mclean man.

The death of young Victor Manhart, the
fireman killed by an electric shock, was
sad one. Such sudden deaths are always
shocking, but the question in this case is,
could it have been prevented? In order to
prevent recurrence of the accident, it is
reported Chief Cook of the fire department
will cause the weight which releases the door
to be insulated. Why was not that done be-
fore if it guaranteed safety to the men. Of
course, if this is the first known case of
death resulting under similar or the same
circumstances no one was to blame for all

Coicraio to take the Governors
chair from Alva Adams and TO
seat in it Lleutenant-Governor
Jesse + Mcdonald, after pei nit
tlng james H Peabody to hold it

To all these, he replied that he
did not care to hold the chair.
Half dozen members of the
National Guard patrolled the cor.
ridors about the executive cham
