CELEBRATED VIRGINIA MUM
DERER FINALLY GOES TO
FACE HIS MAKER.
LAST HOURS IN PRAYER
Final Blow Comes to Aged ratner
Who Loyalty Stood by His Fa'
vorite Son Through All His
Troubles.

Richmond, Va. The dismal
clang of a steel door-then the mo-
mentary picture of a whlte-nalreo
father and a young son gazing at
each other for the final time on eartn
was the climax in the virginia
state penitentiary of the next to the
last act in the tragedy of Henry Clay
Beattie, Jr. At 1880 o'clock, twelve
hours before the execution, the boy
condemned to die in the electric chair
for the murder of his young wife last
July, had to part with the parent who
stood by him with fortune and fidel-
ity throughout his ordeal The youth
never admitted his guilt to his father.
But young Henry Beattie's con-
science would not allow him to leave
the rest of the world retaining the
same impression and so, according to
authentic report, he made state
ment to his brother, Douglas, earlier
in the evening. What this statement
was no one knows save Douglas. But
the general impression is that the
only statement the boy could make
would be a confession.
The last act of the tragedy began
at 5 o'clock Friday morning, when
Beattie was awakened by the arrival
in his death chamber of his two spir-
itual advisers, Rev. ]. ]. Fix and Rev.
Dr. Benjamin Dennis. They prayed
with him until a short time before Z
O'Clock when his breakfast was Serv-
ed. Just at Z the IL witnesses OF
the electrocution were summoned
and watched in the room where sits
the electric chair, tests that made
sure it is all right. Then at 1920
with the clergymen preceding him,
and a guard on each side of him, he
was led to his fate. Still maintain
ing his bravado, he smiled as his
guards strapped him in the chair. A
moment more and Henry Clay Beat
tie, Jr., stood before his Maker for
the trial from which there is no ap-
peal.
He was the thirty-seventh victim
of the electric chair since its install
lation four years ago. Of the 81 he
would only be the sixth white man.
The first white man, one Gilbert, was
youth of only %, just like Beattie.
He went to the chair numbed and
speeches. from fright.

Winner-The nerve and skill OF
Alexander Bordeau, living on the north
boundary of the Rosebud reservation,
saved his son. Phil Bordeau, from a
horrible death. Young Bordeau en-
tered the horse corral and roped wild
horse. The horse began to run, and
the young man became entangled in
the rope He was dragged violently
over the ground, and would have been
killed in few minutes had not his
father appeared on the scene with a
shotgun, and realizing desperate meas
ures were necessary, shot the horse
dead. The feat was difficult one,
as the horse was plunging wildly, and
there was grave danger the boy, in
stead of the animal, would receive the
charge.
