JERSEY SLAYER HANGED TWICE
Frederick Long Found Alive When
Lowered After First Suspension.

New Brunswick, N. 1.-THE last
hanging of a murderer to take place
in New Jersey occurred here and was
attended by a sensational episode,
which is regarded as fully justifylng
the change from the rope to the cleo
trio chair as the means OF executing
death sentence in this State.
The doomed man, Frederick Lang,
condemned for the murder of his
stepniece, was found to be still alive
after he had hanged for eight minutes
and had been lowered until his feet
touched the ground. He was again
raised and ten minutes later was pro-
nounced dead. -.
Nearly three years have elapsed
since the murder was committed. He
is the last man to meet death by SEN
tence in this manner in the State of
New Jersey, as hereafter all men con-
demned to pay this penalty will be
el]ectrocuted.
The murder Of Mary Gordon took
place on April 20, 1905. Lang had
proposed to the girl, who was then
nineteen years old, several times, but
had been rejected. She threatened
to tell her stepfather if he did not
stop bothering her. Lang drew his
revolver and killed her.

Seven Gored Skirt.

The even gored skirt is n of the
standbys that Is always in demand.
It suits a great many materials and a
great many purposes and this one has
the great merit of allowing a choice
of either the high waist line or the
natural one. 1t will be found adapted
to all suiting and all skirting ma
terials and to the washable ones that
are already being made up, as we'll
as to those Of wool and Of silk, and,
as it can be made in either round or
walking length, it is just as we'll
adapted to the house as it is to the
street.
The skirt is made in seven cores,
and the fulness at the back is laid
in inverted pleats. When the belt Is
used it is Joined to the upper edge,
but when the high waist line is de-
sired the seams are designed to be
boned and the upper edge to be un-
der-faced.

for the medium size Is ten yards

TEACHER KILLED IN STREET
MISS Anna Mangano Dies on Her
Way to School.
Shot by Philip Mangano, Her Father,
Who Tries to Kill Himself
Refused to Explain.

New York City.-After shooting
and instantly killing his daughter,
Miss Anna Mangano, a teacher in
public school, in 103d street, near
Third avenue, as she was walking
through 103d street on her way to
school, Philip Mangano attempted to
blow out his own brains. A man who
had witnessed the murder seized him
and two shots fired by Mangano went
wild.
Miss Mangano, who lived at st.
Cecilia's Institute for Working Girls,
1868 Lexington avenue, left shortly
after 8 o'clock togo to the school. She
carried her lunch, some books and q
pair of slippers to wear in the class
room.
Walking down Second ven to
103d street, she turned west toward
the school. AS she got opposite les
East 103d street Mangano, who had
been following her, ran up behind,
through the head.
When he saw that he had killed
the girl Mangano fed east through
103d street, pursued by a mob that
had been attracted by the shot and
the scream of the teachers. He had
gone but a few yards when Adolph
Schwartz, who saw the shooting,
hurled himself on the fugitive just
as he turned his revolver on himself.
Schwartz knocked Manganese arm
up, and the bullet went through the
slayer's hat. A second effort to
shoot himself resulted in the bullet
going wide of its mark.
As he crossed Third avenue Sergt.
England and Patrolman Gisselbrecht
grabbed him. His strength was equal
to theirs, and they had to club him
before he would submit to arrest.
Frank Lacatira and his wife, the
latter a sister Of the dead girl, ar
rived at the station house soon after
and Lacatira asked that Mangano be
brought before him. AS soon as La
catiro saw his father-in-law, he cried:
"Mangano, you dog, you should be
tortured for this; it is lucky you are
under the care of the police or I
should punish you myself" r.
Mangano refused to explain.

Tie Dr. s:.ion to erect a joint
memorial to the memory Of Genera!
Lee and General Grant the two, great
opposing commanders of the Civil
War. brings to mind some of the
points Of similarity of those famous
soldiers. Not only did they command
their respective armies, but eacn a
remarkable command of himself.
Walter H. Taylor, in -Four Years
With General Lee" and Horace Por-
ter, in Campaigning With Grant
both bear testimony to this control
which makes a man master of him
self.
Lee was a man of a naturally pos
tive temperament, but he had re-
markab!e self-control. His passions
were strong, but they were in COM
Dletc subsection to his will. He was
not one of those amiable men whose
temper is never rusled, bat the occa-
sional cropping out showed how
great was his habitual s~elf-control.
"He had q great dislike to revising
army communications. One day when
it was positively necessary to look
over some reports I had, he was in
not a very pleasant mood. Something
had irritated him, and it showed in a
nervous little jerk of the head. Al
ter d~isposing of a cas- of vexatious
character, he seemed greatly worried,
and 1, forgetting what was due my
superior, impattently threw down the
paper with signs Of anger. Lee con-
trolled himself at once, and said, in q
calm voice:

temper don't you let It make you an
gry!'"
General Grant" says Horace Por-
ter, was calm under trials. When
he could not control circumstances
he endured them. His temper was
often a marvel. He rarely raised his
voice nor showed irritability. He
could not only discipline others, he
disciplined himself. If he had lived
in the ancient days he might have
broken the tablets Of stone in wrath,
but he never would have broken the
laws written thereon. The only time
during the campaign when l saw hin
! display anger was when a teamster
beat his horses.
"'General,' said some one, it is
singular that you have gone through
the rough and tear Of the army with
out swearing l have never heard
you use an oath.
"'Well,' replied the general, some
how or other I never learned to
| swear. When I was a boy I had an
aversion to it, and when | grew up |
saw the folly of it. Swearing helps
rouse ones anger. When a man flies
into a passion his adversary keeps
cool and gets the better Of it.
Il quoted General Grant once, as
an example to q teamster Sho was
given to using profane language. He
replied:

old man never druv mlleSi'

shot and fatally wounded his father
in-law, A. P. Anderson, at the joint
homo of the two, at Youngsville, Pa.
A few minutes later Hodges placed
the same revolver to his own head
and put a bullet in his head.
The shooting took place in front OF
Mrs. Hodges, who Is a daughter OF
Anderson. An old dispute was re-
newed when Hodges stepped up be-
hind the aged man and, placing his
revolver at his back, fired, the bullet
penetrating the lung. Mrs. Hodges
alarmed the neighborhood with her
screams. Twenty minutes later, as
neighbors began to arrive at the
house, Hodges stepped outside the
door and SHOT himself.
