To Abolish the Gallows.

London, Dec 3I.=A bill will be
introduced at the next session of
parliament for the abolition of the
gallows and the strictly private dis
patch of condemned men in their
cells and under the influence of an
|anaesthetic. The measure has al
ready been drafted and its passage
is being agitated by group under
the leadership of A. c. Benson, the
author. and son of the late Bishop
of Canterbury.
Il cannot help thinking" Benson
explains, that a condemned man
should be able to choose both the
time, within fixed limits, and the
manner of his death, and that the
resources of medical science should
be employed to make that death as
swift, as quiet and as painless as
possible.
If a prisoner IN the solitude of
his cell might be allowed to swallow
a potion, or be done to death by an
anaesthetic, death would at least
have some touch of privacy and de-
corum about it. But the awful cere-
mony and disgusting apparatus of
violent death seems to me utterly
barbarous and medieval. A man at
such crisis OF his fate is not a
thing to exult and gloat over, what
ever his crime may have been, and
| believe that the solemn barbarity
of the whole proceeding has an en-
tirely degrading and debasing effect
upon the public mind"

The board of trustees will consist of a
representative from each of the eight
churches and two at Iarge-Dr. Ennis and
Lew b Brown. When organized wOm-
ans auxiliary committee will be appointed
to cooperate and assist in the manage
ment.
At first the trustees thought only of an
out-of-t he-way lot and a modest building
in which to carry out their good intent, but
owing to the public spirit and generosity of
the city and its people a handsome and
cOmmOdious hospital. with the most APP

week the CITY Council granted the board
Of trustees two fine lots in an ideal lOca-
ton and well fitted for hospital purposes.
Already $500 has been voluntarily prom
