Wash, dangled at the end of the rope
beneath the scaffold at the prison this
morning and slowly strangled to death,
it being 221R minutes from the time the
trap was sprung until he was taken

The horror was no fault of the hang
men. The cords in the back of Quinn's
neck were abnor1nsIly large and he held
his head back and tensed the muscles
as the trap was sprung. Attendants
We're startled when Quinn's legs began
to twitch and then Mortified by his
groans of Boys, this is awful and
For Gods sake take me up and drop
me again, boys"
He was able to unbuckle the straps
about his arms and drop them to the
ground. After moment his words be-
came moro inarticulate and shortly he
ceased to sway and died after % min
utes. Quinn was the thirteenth man
to be hanged mere and 3 peculiar coin
cidence is that this is Friday, the 18th
day of the month.

EIGHT ARE DROWNED.
High School Students Meet Death
While Boating.

Wflkesbarre, Pa, May 1S.-Eight high
school students, SIX girls and two boys
lost their lives yesterday while boating
on the Paper Mill dam pond at Hunting
ton Mills, about 20 miles below this
city.
The Dead.

veyville.
Ruth Bonham, IS years, Town Line.
Iris Davenport, IS years, Watertown.
Hill.
Madeline Good. II years. Watertown.
Robert Minnich, Is years, Koonsville.
Ray Dodson, II years, Fairmount.
Twelve students of the Huntington
high school secured boats at the noon
is nearly half a mile in width and when
the two crafts had reached the center
o: the bCdy of water It was noticed
one of them had sprung a leak. The
two boats then were pulled together
by the young men in the party and
from the leaky boat to the safer craft.
The last one of the party had scarcely
set foo1 in the boat when it began to
sink, owing to the weight.
The girls were helpless and the boys
with the exception of Dodson being ex-
pert swimmers, struck out for shore
which they reached in safety.
Minnich had no sooner gained the
bank than he noticed the girls hanging
to the rapidly sinking boat.
He dashed into the water and swan
swiftly to the water-filled craft. Two
girls were clinging to the boat, tie
others having gone down. Selling Miss
Davenport, Minnich again started for
the shore but the exertion was too
much for the lad and the two went
down together when they were within
a stones throw of the bank
AS soon as the accident became
known, graphing parties began a
search for the bodies. In less than
two hours all the bodies were recov-
cred.

FOR FINAL TUSSLE.
Football Mentors Meet to Decide Fate
of Football.

New York, May 13.-Today and to-
morrow may be fateful ones in deciding
the destiny of college football. The
football rule revisers are in New York,
ready for what is expected to be a
final tus sic with the rules. The problem
of the experts is to make the game safe
ard sane as demanded by the faculties
OF college after college and at the same
time preserve it's present status as the
fcvoWte sport of the undergra duate and
the alumnus lover of exciting athletic
contests
Before the revisers, the members of
the intercollegiate football rules COM
n1ttee met today, there was a general
expectation that their sessions would
be lively. The much vexed question Of
the forward pass pressed to the front
but not far behind were the questions
o. the flying tackle and the eight yards
to-gadn feature Of the game tentative
ly decided on at the recent Philadel
phia meetir- of the committee. 1t is
getting near the time the reVisers re-
alize when the issue will have to be
g-applei with and brought to some
definite conclusion and it was the hope
OF many that the present meeting would
result in definite action.
Among the experts who have gather
ed for the meeting are Prof. L. NJ

cor.mit-ee; Walter Camp Yale; DIR.

JEWELRY SEIZED.
Customs Authorities Make Big Haul
From Ranch Owner.

New York, May ia bagful of
antique Spanish jewelry valued at be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 is in the
hands of te customs authorities here
today as the result of a seizure made
by deputy surveyor from Nicholas
Morales, a Nicaraguan ranch owner.
Signor Morales and his wife came into
port yesterday on the steamship Colon.
They declared about $4,000 worth of
jewelry, most of which Mrs. Morales
wore, and they were about to proceed
to an uptown hotel, for a two weeks
stay before sailing for Europe, when
the customs man discovered a little
package which aroused his suspicious.
He found in the package brilliant
display of jewelry not down in the
declaration. The lot included a large
gold cross set with a big diamond and
eleven small diamonds, a collar like
necklace containing % large and 81
small diamonds, two bracelets with %
stones, medallion brooch with 81
diamonds and q pair of diamond ear
rings.
Signor Morales explained that he
was taking the jewelry to Paris to be
remounted for a friend and stated
that he did not know that it was
necessary for him to declare jewelry
belonging to some one else and which
was merely in transit. He was in
formed that he might have avoided
trouble by having the jewelry put in
bond. He will appeal to the secretary
Of the treasury for the release of the
iewelrY in bond

An Earthquake Is Recorded by
Government Instruments.
Indications Are That 1t Was
West of Washington.
1T LASTED 8 HOURS.
According to the SeismOgraph
at Kansas University.
Said to Be More Serious Than
That in Costa Rica.

Washington, May 13.-An earthquake
was recorded early today by the seis-
anograph of the Georgetown university.
The movement began at 1926 and lasted
for 4S minutes. The interruption was
only moderate, the maximum move
ment being at 1888 and lasting for five
minutes. The motion of the instrument
was from east to west, indicating that
the quake was west of Washington.
Lawrence, Kan, May 13.-An earth
quake shock was recorded by the seis-
nrograph at the University of Kansas
heer at 139 this morning. The tremors
lasted nearly three hours and at times
were severe.
Prof. H. P Cady, in charge of the in
strument, gave it as his opinion that
the record was of a quake at some
point between 1000 and 5000 miles from
Lawrence. He was unable to say in
which direction.
graph at St. Ignatius college today
shows the records of a heavy earth
quake shock shortly after O'Clock this
morning. The tremors lasted one hour
and II minutes.
F. Obcnbach, the observer, said that
the record greatly resembled that made
by the earthquake in Costa Rica last
week, but was a much more serious
earth shock.
Costa Rica Still Striking.
San Jose, Costa Rica, May 13.-The
earth tremors continue today. In the
month since April 13, four hundred
distinct shocks have been recorded
The volcanoes of the vicinity exhibit no
special activity. 1t is estimated that a
force of 1000 men will be required for
six months to clear the ruins of
Cartago Half that number of men is
engaged under good organization.
Samuel T. Lee, the American consul
at San jose, is active in the work of
rescue.

CUT SIZE PAPER MONEY.
Secretary of Treasury Favors New and
Novel Scheme,

Chicago. May ia special from
Washington says:
A reduction in the size of the paper
money of the United States will be
made # Secretary of the Treasury Mac
Neagh accepts recommendations that
VIII be mace to him within a few weeks
by committee of treasury officials ap-
pointed to investigate this and other
proposed reforms.
The object of the proposed change is
to supply the country with a size of
currency more convenient for handling
and to save the government $500,00 a
year in paper and engraving.
The new sized bank note to be rec
cmmended is about three-fourths as
large as the notes now in circulation.
The present notes are of size that
has been the standard for generations.
An experiment OF the advantages of
the change has been made with the
Philippine island currency, which is en-
graved at the treasury. The Philippine
bank note is about three-fourth the size
of the American bank note, and is ex-
tremely attractive in appearance.
On account Of the smaller size, five
instead of four notes can be engraved
on a page of currency note paper, and
this, in addition to the economy of pa
per, means tremendous saving
