having attempted to escape The comrade,
who was nearly dead from exposure and
suffering had staked his last effort on
his attempt to regain freedom, and the
recapture had discouraged him completely
and caused him to feel that death itself
was preferable to a return to the stockade
Like a Gagged animal he turned on Wirz
and gave him curse for curse, challenged
him to do his worst and told him he would
rather die than return to the hell hole from
which he had escaped. This so enraged
Wirz that he sprang at the man, knocked
him down with his revolver and then
kicked and trampled him with his boot
heels until he was dead. When the witness
began this story Wirz became interested.
First he removed the handkerchief from
his face, then propped himself on one
elbow; and as the story progressed he
gradually rose up until he stood erect. His
fists were clenched, his eyes were fairly
bursting from their sockets, and his face
presented a horrible appearance.
AS the witness finished his story wirz
fairly screamed at him: You say I killed
that man! Yes sir replied the wit
ness, you tramped him to death in my
presence At this Wirz threw up his
hands and exclaimed, My Gott!,' and fell
back in a faint on the lounge.
THE military commission that met and
tried Wirz held their sessions in the rooms
of the court of claims in the Capitol
Building at Washington, D. c. It was
made up as follows: At the head of ths
table sat Major General Lew Wallace
the president OF the court. On his right
at the table set Major General G. Mott

upon this point The report of DIR. Jones

And the second charge was Murder In

The court found him guilty of both charges
and on ten of the thirteen Specifications.
Throughout the trial the prisoner was
treated with the utmost fairness kindness
and consideration of the court and the

toward determining the cost Of women's

comments The wages range from 50 to

workers get 81 or less a week. The
millinery trade is the one which still re-
tains the distinctive features OF a trade"
In most OF the other industries the work
has been so divided that the workers do
not get complete idea of their work. In
tho making OF shoes, for instance, there
are thirty-two operations by women in
addition 10 the 100 or more by men in max
ing the finished produce. The largest
number OF apprentices was found In the
millinery establishments.
1t is estimated that there are 1883
women employed in Minnesota now.
