II Am Ready, Gentlemen"
During the reading of the death
warrant, the doomed man maintain
ed his composure. He stood without
tremor. As the superintendent
finished he swayed, but SO impercep-
tibly that he might have been shift
ing his weight from one foot to the
other. When the deputy wardens
fell in on each side of him, he bowed
his head a moment.
Il am ready, gentlemen" he said,
simply, and the death march was be-
gun.
Just before Superintendent Wood
and his men appeared Rev. DR.. Fix
knelt in prayer with the condemned
man. He prayed for divine forgive
ness for him. Beattie appeared af-
fected, but when the Irayer was fin
ished he was as emphatic in his re-
fusal to confess as at any time since
his arrest. To all repeated requests
for a confession, he made the same
motion of his head, slow negative
shake which showed how firmly his
mind was made up to maintain his
silence.
There existed deep affection
between the elder Beattie and his
wayward son. The father to-day is
broken man as the result of his
sons crime, although he clung to the
last to the belief that his son was in
nocent
No member of the Beattie family

 Wed Miss West,
 Talented Actress

It has been announced that the we'd ding of Miss Blanca Lucy de Maulin West to William Darius Bishop will take place July 6. The ceremony will be he!i at the Episcopal church, St. Mary's- by -the-Sea, Black Rock. The announcement will not create any great amount of surprise owing to the fact that Miss West and MT. Bishop have been friends for some time and have been seen great deal to- gether.
 Miss West is the daughter of Mrs. Lucy T. and the late P: Frederick West. She resides at 647 Clinton ave- hitious for a stage career and instead of devoting her time to social affairs she attended a dramatic school in New York and later obtained an en- gGgement with Annie Russell's com Pany. which was playing in the metro polls. Subsequently she appeared at the head of her own company in the Augustus Thomas play, Colorado, and irl ether productions. Her last appearance in this city was in Paid i:l Full''', in which she played the lead ing feminine role. Miss West is re- gar'led as clever actress.
 Mr. Bishop was interested in her stage work and was frequently in the The groom-elect is the son of Mrs. William D. Bishop of 199 Courtland street. He is student at Yale Uni versity. Both Miss West and MT. Bishop have been prominent in local s"ciety, and the wedding in the pie turesque Black Rock church will be q great social event.

BILL TO INCREASE ALLOWANCE TO ST.
 VINCENT'S HOSPITAL
(By Our Staff Correspondent

Hartford, June 20-Senator Archibald McNeil introduced an amendment in- creasing the allowance for St. Vim cents hospital from $15,O0O to $17,000 the usual allowance for the two years is $15,OO0, but owing to the fact that St. Vincent's hospital has no wealthy contributors, the effort is being made to help the managers overcome their burden.
 The House a week ago rejected an amendment introduced by Rep. Melt ger for an extra s5,OO0 for the hospital The House first passed the amend ment, and subsequently, reconsidered and killed it. Since then the Bridge port Senators and Representatives have been endeavoring to secure a large amount than s15.00O and Sen. Me Neil feels confident that the extra 3D. 900 will be allowed.
 The House today in concurrence with the Senate passed resolution in favor of the election of United States Sem ators by the people. The bill now goes to the Governor.
 The bill introduced by Representa- tive Banks of Fairfield against any combination affecting the necessities of life passed the House practically unanimously The bill provides that any dealer who shall enter into any combination to keep the prices of ne- cessities at a rate that may be deem- ed unjust may be fined $1,000 or lm- prisoned for years or both.
 The text of the bill follows:
 Any person who, for himself or as member of any firm or an officer or agent of any corporation, con- spires with or enters into any com bination or agreement with any other person or any firm or corporation for the purpose of fixing or maintaining & higher price, at wholesale or re- tail, for ice, coal, or any other neceS- sity of life than would prevail ex- cept for such conspiracy, combination, or agreement, or of limiting or re- straining the production, manufac- ture, shipment, or sale of any such commodity for the purpose of in creasing the price thereof, shall be fined not more than $1,000 or inn prisoned not more than five years or both.
 In explaining his bill Judge Banks said that he considered this one of the most important matters to come before the present general assembly.
