Governor Mann Refused to
Grant a Respite, and Beat
tie Must Sit in the Electric
Chair.
SMILED WHEN He HEARD IT

Richmond, Va, Nov. 15.-In refus-
ing to grant a respite to Beattie to-
day Governor Mann said:
ITO grant respite in so plain a
case as this would be to set a pre-
cedent which would be to temporize
with the law and to encourage ap-
peals to the supreme court with the
sole purpose Of gaining time.
81 believe that the best way to pre-
vent such crimes as this is to punish
adequately, certainly and speedily.
Therefore, the judgment of the cir
cult court of Chesterfield will be car
ried into effect without interference
from me-"
Rev. Benjamin Dennis, an Episco-
pal clergyman, broke the news of
the governors refusal to interfere
with the execution of his sentence to
Beattie.
This is the first time Governor
Mann has refused to grant a respite
of sentence since he has been the
states chief executive.
After hearing the news Of the gov
ernors decision that he must die,
Beattie remained calm and urged his
friends not to worry.
When he came with the news to
the prisoner, DR.. Dennis found Beat
ties sister Hazel in the condemned
cell After she left, Dennis told the
news. Beattle only smiled. His
friends expect him to enter the death
chamber smiling.
The execution, under the Virginia
law, must be held between O'Clock
in the morning and at night. The
current probably will be turned on at
sunrise.

Mr.. W. L. Mcmillan, who lives near
Chemawa on the Brooks road brought
to the board Of trade the other day
some pears that will average over
two pounds apiece. They are Of the

great deal OF attention from strang-

very good stock and COW feed.
W. H. Egan also brought in some
Vicar of Wakefield pears from a tree

to New Orleans. He was particu-
larly impressed with the great
Southern city, which is unique in
many ways. In the first place it Is
10 feet lower than the river, its
sewer system Is operated by pumps,
its dead buried in raised mounds or
tombs, built up some eight or 10
feet. In the "aristocratic" cemetery
there is a building clause compell-
ing the erection of a monument cost
ing not less than $4,000, and there
are many costing 100000 or even
$25, 900. He says it is, in many re-
spects, the most wonderful and beau
tiful "city Of the dead" in the world.
The monuments are mostly of the
famous Georgia marble. Here he
visited the old slave markets where
the thrifty New England ship own
ers landed their black cargoes from
Africa, and sold them to the south
erners. though afterwards they were
unanimous in the opinion 1t was a
crime to own them. The old slave
dungeons, where the ancestors of
the present "men and brothers were
put in cold storage for better mar
ket, are still there, maintained by
the city, as one of its sights and
ATTRACTIONS.
Leaving New Orleans, the big
train is taken across the Mississippi
on a ferry, and from there across
Louisiana for $50 miles through the
black level prairies, is one vast field
of sugar cane. The land is so low
