CR|pPEN IS EXECUTED
Hanged in London for the Muir.
der Of His Wife.

London, Nov. 24.-Dr. Hawley Har-
vey Crippen was hanged in the yard Of
the Pentonville prison for the murder
Of his wife, Belle Gilmore, the actress.
The announcement of the execution
from the prison was accompanied by
the official statement that Dr. Crippen
made no statement or confession what
soever before being hanged.
Father Carey, who has been much
with Crippen at Pentonville, remained
at the prisoners side throughout the
night and accompanied him to the
scaffold.
The condemned man, who, through.
out his trial and even until Home Sec
rotary Churchill had refused petition
for his reprieve, had maintained an
imperturbable calmness, presented a
pitiable appearance as he was literally
led throughout the short corridor from
his cell to the scaffold.
His mental anguish had been too
great to be covered up by outward
bravado and it was a broken man the
wardens were obliged to assist up the
steps to the drop, upon which, once
reached, the shrinking figure all but
collapsed.
Crippen, who weighed 40 pounds,
was given drop of seven feet Death
was instantaneous.

Knocked Out?

Your head aches and your throat is a
little dry. You have no appetite. Your
eyes are hot, tongue furred, and you are
about half knocked out. You know what
the trouble is. You have been drinking
and eating too much. You have felt this
way before, but don't take week to get
over it this time. Just take one or two
Smiths Pineapple and Butternut Pills.
Take them now, and tonight when you
retire take one or two more. Tomorrow
you will feel better, and before the day is
passed you will forget all about it. These
wonderful little vegetable pills will quickly
relieve congestion, drive the poison out of
the blood and restore digestion. Just one
days use of these little vegetable pills
will cure any threatened bilious attack.
They are good for young or old, never
grippe or weaken, nor leave behind any
unpleasant after effects. Physicians use
and recommend. They form no habit.
You should always keep them on hand
These little Vegetable Pills will ward off
many ills.

fro BE Continued
Lifting Power of Plants.

Experiments of a peculiar char
se"erai OF the noted agricultural coll
le yes OF the United States, the OBJ
JeCt being to ascertain the lifting
power OF growing plants of different
species. Farmers are we'll acquaint-
ed with the fact that the roots of
trees Will disrupt and sometimes
oyerturn stone wall but the lifting
power OF tender vegetables is equal
ly surprising The one result which
has perhaps, attracted the greatest
attention is the discovery that
weight OF two and half tons can be
lifted by the common American
pumpkin In the course OF its devel-
opment. DR., Carpenter relates the
story OF a paving stone, weighing
eighty-three pounds, that was raised
from its bed (when joined by others
on all four sidesJ by such a soft
piece OF fungi as the common mush-
room. And still another and more
remarkable instance is recorded. A
man. having a cask of sweet wine,
placed IL in an empty cellar to ma
ture. When examined several years
later IL had risen from the floor OF
the cellar TO the ceiling. having been
borne upward upon the tender
shoots OF a vine fungus. with which
the cellar was filled.

MILLINERs MULTIPLYING.
Their Trade Fourteenth Among the
Callings Of Women Breadwinners.

Millinery ranks fourteenth among
the pursuits in which women are en-
gagged as breadwinners. II is a dis
tinctly womans occupation, 94.4 per
cent. of all milliners In the United
States being women.
Only two occupations have larg-
er proportion of women: dressmak-
ing. with g7.5 per cent, and house
keeping with 94.7 per cent. Seam
stresses are g1.y per cent. OF them
women. These four occupations
were the only occupations in which
women constitute over nine-tenths
OF all persons employed
Almost nine-tenths of the women
milliners are native whites In large
cities more than half the milliners
were under 20 years OF age Prob
ably whom they exceed that age they
marry and II they remain in business
II Is done in the hCsnan g name and
the census credits ri,n with being a
merchant. In 1890 there was one
niIliner to every 323 women 10
years OF age and over In 1900 one
to every 1855.
THIS change IS thought to reflect
the advance Ia the prosperity of the
country. since millinery to a certain
extent is a luxury and in family
budgets form an item that probably
responds quickly to fluctuations in
income. II the manual training
schools and technical institutions
continue to run out nilliners in the
next ten years as they have in the
last decade there Will be one mil
liner to every hundred women, and
in the not far distant future.

AGREED WITH THE COUNT.
Judge Relates Good Story About a
Famous esekwoods Character.

Famous Bsckwoods Character.
A supreme court Judge tells this
story about famous character
around the minor courts Tall, gaunt
and gawky, he had a fund of ready
Irish wit and dignity of presence
and carriage which. combined with
booming bass voice, was humorous in
itself. All the judges knew him and
were lenient with his infractions OF
court rules.
The character. who was lawyer OF
the shyster class. was defending
case in court one day before justice
who was particularly fond of him. He
went to luncheon with his client.
When court resumed after luncheon It
was evident that he had enjoyed his
midday meal. Realizing the situation
the justice leaned over and said:
This case is postponed until to-
morrow. The counsel for the defense
Ia in no condition to proceed with It,"
The lawyer rose to his feet unstead.
lily and gazed earnestly at the court.
Then his deep voice doomed out:
Your honor. have known you, man
boy and child. for thirty years on
the binch and of the binch--and it is
the first time in all these years have
known you to make \ rulin' accord
ance with the facts"
Then he sat down.

Wanted the Stino.

The students of an eastern college
grew so reckless in their behavior
that the professor one morning at
chapel thought to reprove their con.
duct by lecture on morality. They
listened with due submission and hu.
mility. In the course of his lecture
he said
"My young friends, the floors of hell
are paved with champagne, automo-
biles and chorus girls" He was horri-
fed to hear one of the students say in
a sepulchral tone:
"Oh, death, where is thy sting?"
