WANT HANGING POSTPONED.
Attorneys viii Ask Another Change
of Date for Burgess Execution.

A representative of the district attor-
ney's Office viii appear before Justice
Barnard to-day and ask the court to
change the day for the execution Of Will
lam Burge, colored. convicted of the muir
der OF his wife. Daisy Burge, two years
ago from January next to some day in
the month of May. This will be the fifth
time that the date for Burgess execution
is changed He was under sentence to be
hanged next Tuesday afternoon.
The course taken by the district attor-
ney and the court is necessitated by the
fact that the Court OF Appeals does not
resume its session until the day al
ready set for the execution Of Burge.
Hence the appeal. whichf has lapsed, can
not be dismissed before the day desig-
mated for the hanging.
The time within which the defendant s
attorneys had to submit the bill of excep-
tions to the trial court expired on Decem-
Der % last. and the term was not pro-
longed to settle the same. as required by
the rules Notwithstanding this. AttOr-
neys James A. O'Shea and w. w. Bride,
counsel for Burge, have until January %
to file a skeleton record in the Court of
Appeals The transcript will not contain
a bill Of exceptions, and, therefore. the
rulings of the trial court 10 which excep-
tons we're taken cannot be reviewed by
the appellate tribunal.

BRooKLAND ACTS PROMPTLY.
Claims IL Did Much Humane Rescue
Work at Terra Gotta Wreck.

Editor The Washington Herald;
To the average newspaper reader the
past week, it would appear from the i'm
mense number Of articles covering the
various phases Of the wreck at Terra
Gotta that Brookland and her people. al
though very near to the scene, did a very
small part Of the rescue work, or in car
ing for any Of the victims. This is an
erroneous impression, as a number of our
physicians, as well as townspeople, were
on the spot within half an hour, doing
valiant and heroic work. DIT. Jack Brooks.
a surgeon Of the United States army, who
is visiting his father, DR.. Henry J..
Brooks. of Brookland; Dr.. Towner, DR..
Frischkom. and DIT. Stern were all there
before any wreck or relief train was
even under way. DR.. J. Henry Brooks at
tended a number as they arrived in
Brookland Brookland's fire ladies were
there as quickly as the bad roads would
permit them. and did very good work.
Besides the work of the nearby priests
Of Brookland. Rev. z. E Marshall, of the
Brookland NJ. Z. Church. was quickly on
the scene and ministered spiritually to
the wounded and dying, he having dis
missed his congregation upon the first
news, about Z o'clock. Mr.. and Mrs.
Fisher conveyed the injured child of Mr..
F. R Chase, of Evarts street, to their
home, on Michigan avenue, and cared for
1t until II was found by its father, the
mother being among the killed.
Dozens of others were early on the
scene and assisted in every way. The in
vestigation has brought out the fact Of
