asked II Orchards maternal grand
father was not insane on the subject
OF imaginary crimes. Orchard admit
ted that his uncle, Peter Mckinney.
who lived In Northumberland, Ont,
had hanged himself while insane. He
denied all knowledge OF grandfather
named Patrick Mckinney. This cross
examination was based on 4 letter
received by the defense from B. f.
Mckinstrey of Alemedia, Pa.
Another feature of the days pro-
seedlings was the issuance of a war
rant charging perjury against c. w.
Aller, formerly telegraph operator
and ticket agent of the Florence and
Cripple Creek railroad at Cripple
Creek, Colo, and witness for the de-
Tense. Aller swore that he saw Or
chard and ID. c. Scott together at the
depot of the Florence and Cripple
Creek railway on Sunday about
three weeks prior to the explosion at
the Independence depot on June 6,
1904. Scott swore that he was not in

LAST FRIDAY,

the Life of His
Daughter.

John Billiard, who killed his l7.year
old daughter, Ruby, at his home near
Powder Springs, shooting her four
times with pistol, paid the penalty
for his crime last Friday morning at
II 80 O'Clock. being hanged in the Cobb
county jail, his neck being broken by
the fall, and he was dead in nine min
utes.
Drs. Field and Tennent examined him
and pronounced Bullard dead, and after
hanging IL minutes, he was taken down
from the gallows and his body turned
over to his brothers, who carried it to
the Billiard graveyard near Powder
Springs, where the remains were in
tered.
Governor Terrell had DR.. James B.
Baird, of Atlanta, and DR.. H. v. Rey-
nolds, of Marietta, to examine Billiard
Friday morning, and they reported
Bullard was better than he was ten
days ago, able to walk about the corri-
dor of the Jail, and that neither the
emaciation nor the debility was
extreme" Governor Terrell said it
was bad to hang an ill man, and
it was equally as bad to hang stout,
healthy man, but there was no law
authorizing him to interfere with the
sentence of jury and Judge
DR.. G. E. w. Dobbs, of the Baptist
Church, and Rev. w. L. Pierce, of the
Methodist Church, we're admitted to
the jail, and they prayed with the con-
demned man and read selections from
the Bible.
At 1l:15 Sheriff Frey entered the cell
and said kindly: Come on, John. -
John Billiard arose, steadied himself a
moment against his bunk, and followed
the sheriff from the cell. He was able
to stand and walk unsteadily. 1t was

Gov. Terrell had trying ordeal to
confront him in the appeals made to
him for communication and respite of
John Billiard, but he let the law take
its course, after having physicians to
examine him on Friday morning be-
fore the execution took place.
Col, E. H. Clay worked with indefa-
tigeble energy and persistency to save
Billiard from the hangman's moose, but
his efforts were of no avail. He dis
charged his duty to his client faith
fully.
The morbid curiosity of few people
was shut out by the private hanging of
Bullard, Friday. Some few stood
around and watched the Jail, but the
great mass of our people had no desire
to see the horrible spectacle ard stayed
at their places of business. About the
poorest use you can put man to is to
hang him, yet some men become so

HOME RULERS KICK
ABOUT THE JUNkE /

The Home Rula is disguised with the
proposed junketing visit OF the invited
Congressman and lays the blame for
the affair on the shoulders of Dele
gate to Congress Kuhio. 1t expresses
grave doubt, too, as to whether the
native Hawaiians will be allowed to
converse with the visitors and lay
their grievances before them I'M
muzzled. In it's issue of March /, the
Home RuIa says:
During Wilcoxs time as Delegate
to Congress United States Senators
visited Hawaii at their own expense
and the Hawaiian Legislature was not
burdened. But now, in Kuhio's time,
our Legislature is asked to spend a
big sum of money to bring some of the
members of Congress here. This shows
the vast difference there is between
the political wisdom of the Home Rule
leader, now lying in his grave in Koula
cemetery, and that of the Republican
delegate, sitting in his seat at Wash
ington.
"A member Of the present Hawaiian
Senate explained the other day that
the reason his support was given to
the appropriation, which will be loose
" spent from the Hawaiian treasury,
was that the coming of these honor
able members would give the Hawai-
ians opportunities to- meet them and
to present their petitions. The idea
of this senator is a good one, but can
the petitions of those Hawaiians who
are not already muzzled, reach the
visitors in recognizable shape, t.
there are people who will undoubtedly
oppose them?''

present year only; only a small part
of this sum was available in cash
merely enough to pay the militia while
in camp. The balance of this appro-
priation could be drawn only in the
form of subsistence stores and quar-
termaster supplies. If the Federal
government duplicated it's appropria-
ton next year, the Colonel said, he
would have, with the appropriation
now asked from this Legislature and
some funds from other sources, about
$4,000 for the use of the militia until
next session. Mr.. Correa expressed
the opinion that part of the Legisla-
lures appropriation would go for
booze for the officers. Col. Jones, in
reply, said that the officers purchased
their liquor with their own funds.
