James. Kulis Wednesday after
noon while making an attempt to
kill AL. Herman with a stocking
II seems strange that he had
chosen this deadly weapon but the
three stones, about the size Of a
chickens egg, found inside of the
stocking were evidence enuff to
make the stocking a deadly weap-

February 8, 1895. Dooley, though
only 18 years Of age when he paid the
penalty of his crime, faced death in
stoical silence. He had taken on flesh
from long confinement without exer-
else and weighed about $50 pounds He
struggled desperately for moment
after the drop fell, but as the fatal
minutes licked away these gradually
ceased, and at the expiration of four
teen minutes he was pronounced dead.
Cumberland Made Accusations.
Cumberland, who had passed the
forenoon coming the Bible under the
spiritual consolation of Chaplain Gum,
presented a pitiable spectacle He had
to be assisted up the steps to the scat
fold by the sheriff and the deputy war
dens who were In charge Of the execu-
tion. The sheriff, upon whom devolved
the duty Of pinioning his arms, adjust
ing the black cap and severing the rope
that held the drop, was painfully agi-
tated. The custom Is to extend to the
condemned opportunity to make any
statement he wishes to make before
being shuff1ed into the valley of the
shadow. The sheriff was either ignor-
ant of the conventions on such occa-
sions or was SO agitated that he had
drawn the black cap over Cum berlands
head, when the writer suggested the
propriety of permitting him to speak
If he SO desired Warden Jones Joined
in the request, and the cap was re-
moved. He was very pale and had
he not been sustained by the sheriff
who was also on the verge of collapse,
he would have fallen to the platform.
For a moment he remained silent.
Then swiftly recalling that he had
made confession of the crime, he
launched into. a violent tirade against
Judge Granger, before whom It APP
.peared, he had been tried. He ac-
cused the district attorney and the
judge of having lured him into a con-
fession on the ground that his life
would be spared If he would confess.
Noting the presence of twenty or
more persons in the corridor, where
the execution took place, lhe cited the

vision Of the law that limited the
number. This is claimed had been
exceeded. For ten minutes he talked
In caustic vein, lipbraiding the judge,
district attorney and spectators When
the drop fell he did not struggle; and
it was suspected he had expired sud-
denly from fright, an instant before the
rope was cut. One of the strange mu-
tations of time is that Deputy United
States Marshall "Bill' Richards, who
witnessed the hanging. and who, per-
haps, had been instrumental in sending
to the penitentiary more criminals
than any officer in Iowa, is now serving
eighteen years sentence in the same
penitentiary for robbing Peter Sullivan

81, The OttumWa Lynching.
A prior execution was that of Hen
ry Schmitt, in the jail yard at West
Union, for the murder of Mr.. and Mrs.
Peet, near that place in 1887. Schmitt
was only 10 years Of age. He was an
orphan and q degenerate who had
America. He claimed to have been
prompted to commit the deed by one
Ellison T Smith, the only heir to the
large estate Of A. Leonard Smith sus-
.pected that Leonard intended to be-
queath a portion Of his estate to Mr..
and Mrs. Peet. He was related to
Leonard, and desired to fall heir to
the farm owned by him. The farm
was occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Peet.
To prevent the suspected beQuest, he
is alleged to have enticed Schmitt to
murder the Poets. The execution was
had in the jail yard at West Union,
January II, 1888. H. R. O'Neil was
sheriff of the county, and the execu-
ton was conducted under his superin-
tendence. 1t so weighed upon his
mind that he left West Union and re-
moved to Cut Bank Mont, where he
died several years ago.
There were number of lynchings,
notably that of Howard, a. Des
Moines, 1874, and of John Smith. at
Ottnmwa. In June, 1875. The latter,
a burly ruffian from Eldon, while in
toxicated at Ottumwa, shot and killed
Policeman AL. Logan, while the latter
was attempting to arrest him. Smith
was taken to the city hall for prelimin-
airy examination, and while being re-
turned to the Jail, he was attacked by
Ia mob and strung up to a lamp post
in front of the city hall. He fought
the crowd with the ferocity of a tiger.
Marshal Al. Vennaman and his depu-
ty, Edge Davis, who tried to protect
their prisoner, were pinioned and
thrown into lumber yard by the mob,
which Their, ly9ched Smith.
The law provides that the span Of
one year at least, shall intervene be-
tween sentence and execution The
theory of the law is, doubtless, predi-
Gated upon the humane idea that the
condemned should have a twelve
months in which to prepare for his An
al taking off. The next legal execu-
ton, unless he should die meantime,
will be that Of William McWilliams,
now under sentence Of death for the
murder of his wife and FIVE children,
at home on farm six miles southeast
of Independence, three or four weeks
ago.
