was hanged in the county Jail during

Welcker-Hoch,
He faced death as he has always
said he would face 1t when the final
moment came-calmly and %concealing
any fear he may have felt. He died
with a prayer on his lips for the Off
GERS OF the law, and save for the words
good bye" his last utterance was an
assertion that he was innocent.
The hanging took place at 1:34 D. NJ.
while his attorneys were still making
desperate efforts for delay. His death,
the lawyers say, has not ended the APP
peal. They promise to carry the case
to the supreme court Of the United
States and If 1t Is there decided that
Hoch was unlawfully hanged, proceed
ings will be commenced against the Of
ficers Of the law who oficiated at the
execution.

He never knows the pleasure Of
spending his last dollar for violets in

AQUATIC PLANTS
How They May he SUCCESSFULLY Guilt
waited In Tubs.


The cultivation of aquatic plants in
tubs makes ii possible for any II to
try his skill with them. OF course he
need not expect to be able to grow he
rarer sorts of nymphaea. but he can
succeed with many beautiful varieties
OF water lily and other plants of that
class. A half barrel is not very at
tractive In itself, but its lack of beauty
may be concealed by the plants, or it
may be sunk its depth in the earth.
When ii contains q fine specimen of
some aquatic plant we will forget all
about its lack Of grace. When prepar-
Ing for these plants put In rich black
mud from the bed of streams or muck
from swamps to the depth of a foot:
then plant your roots In IL and fiji with
water. Add enough water from time
to time to make UP for that which is
lost by evaporation and give the tub a
sunny place In the yard or garden. If
you a to grow more plants than one
tub will accommodate, 1t is a good
plan to take four, five. six. or as many
as you may decide on, and have them
sunk In the ground close together, so
that the general effect will be some
thing like that which a large tank
would give. A better plan. though a
more expensive one to carry out. Is
to have a tank constructed of heavy
planks. These should be securely bolt
ed at the ends and the joints made
tight by white lead in the grooves.

How the Blood Moves In the Veins.
The principal cause of the movement
OF the blood in the veins is What the
psychologists refer to as ''the pressure
from behind" BY this is meant the
capillary circulation, or a movement Of
the blood caused by the constant pump
Ing action of the heart, which forces
the current into and through the veins.
To prevent the engagement of the
~veins-that is, to prevent their becom-
ing SO filled with blood that their re-
sistancc would counterbalance the pres
sure from the arteries-each pulsation
of the heart by emptying the right ven
tricl allows a part of the blood accu-
INFLATED in the veins to be removed. In
this way the backward resistance in
tAe veins is kept inferior to the pres
sure Of the arterial circulation. The
venous circulation is also greatly aided
by the action Of the voluntary muscles.
1t Is a well known fact that when a
muscle contracts II thickens and be-
diminished in length. The ef-
feet of this lateral swelling is to COM
press the veins lying between the mus
Giles. thus forcing the blood forward.
Another popularity Is the half moon
shaped valves with which the veins are
well provided. These "semilunaro
valves open only toward the heart.
making any backward movement Of
the blood into the venous system i'm
possible.
