says that The use of candles is
gradually disappearing, even in
remote districts Of the country.
where petroleum is now in very
general use. In large towns and
important cities candles and De.
troleum have been superseded by
gas and electricity. The condi-
ton OF the industry is not good,
which is principally attributed to
the high prices Of raw material.
Although the use Of candles for
domestic Illuminating purposes is
declining, there still exist in Bel.
gium three manufactures.
Materials used there in the man

featured in Belgium. About nine
tenths Of the general output is ex.

without the export trade the man /

would practically be abandoned. /

The candle industryin the Vene
tan provinces is a comparatively
important one. The statistics
for the port Of Venice show that
the expectation exceeded the i'm
portation by about $4,000 in the
calendar year 1904. Large quan.
titles are also shipped to other
parts Of Italy, Of which there is no

field is a fair one for exploitation
by manufacturers Of candle max

HE WANTS HIS HEAD
n CUTOFF
FRENcHMAN is SENTENCED TO
DEATH FOR MURDER AND RE.
FUSES PARDON WOULD GIVE
ALL CHANCE TO SEE EXECUTION

NEW YORK, July ia cable dis
patch to a morning paper from Pari
says:
Il want to be guillotined. They con
demned me to death, and they shall exc
cute me. I'll have none of their par
dons. There is no reason for revision
of my sentence. Paris has not seen al
execution in 10 years, and Pm going t.
give them the sight Free
This declaration was made by Pierre
Adam to the prison authorities and
lawyers who were trying to persuade
him to appeal for commutation Of hi
death sentence for murder. He has re.
sisted the persuasions persistenly for
three weeks and elamors to have his
head chopped off. The authorities do
not comply with his wish.
The position is curious one. As the
law stands it prescribes that executions
shall be public. but since the guillotine
was moved some years ago from the
notorious Place de la Roquette the ofiic.
ials everywhere have successfully re.
sisted the attempts to secure a new site
and the guillotine has lain idle in
shed, the officers OF justice not ventur-
ing to offend any part Of the city by in.
sisting upon its erection. They have
consequently persuaded every person
condemed to death to appeal for com.
mutation, which was forthwith done.
Adams unprecedented refusal creates
a difficulty. A public execution invari.
ably leads to disturbing carousals and
mischievousness by the scum of the city
and the establishment of a guillotine
anywhere without the assent of the au.
thorities representing the respectable
citizens would inevitably arouse anger
Hence the reluctance to carry out death
sentences.
Bills are under discussion alternately
private executions and abolish,
ing capital punishment, and Adams
novel attitude may lead to the passing
