JERSEY ELEC
 TROCUTION

Trenton, \. J, Dec 9.-TWo Ital- quale Belisco of MiddelseX county, will die this week in the new death chair in the state prison here. They will be the first murderers to be eX- ecuted by electricity in New Jersey since the new law went into effect Three other convicted murderers, Mi chael Tomaso of -Hunterdon county and Charles Gibson and stephen Dor sey, will be sent 70 the deadly chair next week.
 The building where the executions will take place is separate form the other structures of the state prison, 1t having been contended by the leg islatOrs that to have the executions take place in the prison would be destructive of discipline
 An electrician at Sing Sing prison, New York, who has hurled many men to eternity by the electric route, has been employed to take charge of the first executions. The switch is in plain sight of the death chair, the electrician alleging that to operate it from another room is to take the risk of burning bodies, something which the prison officials desire to avoid.
 The New Jersey law provides for the greatest secrecy possible in car rying out death sentences. Aside from the newspaper men, two clergymen, and the. prison officials, jury of twelve persons will witness the exec utions, and no one else will be allow ed in the room

HICKMAN TO RETIRE

Frankfort, Ky. Dee. Ex-Governor J. C. w. Beckham will retire from office and Augustus F. Wilson. the Repu3lican governor elect, will be sworn in as chet executive of Ken tncky tomorrow. Governor Beckham will not return to his home in f'ards- town. He has rented the handsome residence of United States Senator Thomas II. Paynter, where he will live with his family until the coming session of the legislature has adjourn ed. From now until that time he will devote himself exclusively to his can didacv for the senate, which his man.
 agers are now busly engaged ln nushing. The chief argument they are urging in the governors behalf is that he is the party's nominee ana they say as such he is entitled 10 support of all Democrats. Many Democratic leaders, however, declare that the primary was premature ana did not express the will of the voters. 1t is probable that much opposition 10 Beckham will develop in the leglsla- ture.

PADEREWSKI'S
 CHRISTMAS

PadereWski gives up New York as his headquarters on Frlday. Dec. 20. when he goes to Boston to give his second recital there on Satur- day afternoon, December 21. lie will spend the Christmas holidays i'll Boston, having planned to do this from the beginning, because many of his closest and Warmest friends in America live in that city. Dur ing the holiday season he will give one or two minor recitals, and then in January he starts for the west, and will not return to the east un- til the middle of April. So for all his concerts have been given within easy travelling distances of New York. but after he once starts west on the first of January, he will go to the coast before the east sees him again. The most sanguine prophecies regarding the success of this seventh tour of the great Polish pianist have fallen beneath the ac- tual facts. The desire on the part of the public o hear him play seems to be greater than ever before and and at no time in his career has he played to such uniformly large audiences everywhere The finan- cial depression seems not to have affected his business in the least.
