Although the lifeboat battled for an
hour with the waves the men were

the bridge caught brief glimpse of
them as they struggled in the angry
sea, but they had gone down before
the boat could reach them.
Since the Momus left New Orleans

the steerage companionway and flung
Gibbins to the top of the winch house
where he managed to hang on and

NEGRO SLAYER DIES IN CHAIR
Man Who Killed Italian While Rob-
bias Him Is EIectrocuted In
Ohio Penitentiary.

Columbus, O.-Steve Scott, aged
33, negro, was executed at the peni-
tertiary Immediately after midnight.
His life was the penalty for murder
ing Guiseppi Cassemento, an Italian
peddler, near Piqua, while robbing
him of S1.57. Scott and Charles Jones,
his accomplice, divided the money. At
the demand of Columbus police, the
men were arrested near the scene of
their crime, where they had diverted
suspicion by remaining. They were
wanted for knocking three Columbus
Italians in the head and robbing them
three weeks before the murder.
Examination in the Jail at Piqua
drew from Jones confession of the
homicide. Jones escaped with 20 years
for manslaughter, when he testified
that Scott struck the peddler with a
bludgeon and crushed his skull. Mary
Douglass, who lived with Scott and
Jones, affirmed this story. Scott en-.
tered the penitentiary annex April 26,
1910, to be electrocuted the following
September. Five combinations re-
suited from the effort to save his life
He was in the annex longer than any
other condemned murderer.

WON'T ACCEPT RESIGNATION
Congregation Stands by Pastor Now
In Jail on Charge of Muir
dering Girl.

Cambridge, Mass. : While women
cried and pleaded that nothing
should be done to appear in any
way prejudicial to the interests Of
their pastor. the members of the I'm
manuel Baptist church society voted
not to accept at this time the resig-
nation of Rev. Clarence v. T. Richie
son, pastor of the church, now in Jail
on the charge Of numbering Avis Lin
nell of Hyannis. BY another vote,
they decided to lay the matter on the
table until November "a.
When the matter of accepting the
resignation was opened, it became ap-
parent that the society was divided
upon the subject. The women pre-
dominated in the attendance and, for
the most part, they supported the
pastor.
Many were crying and some of the
male members of the society shed
tears as the controversy waxed warm.
When ballot was taken, after two
hours of discussion, 30 voted against
acceptance and Is for.

HEIR TO FORTUNE JOINS NAVY
Buckeye Boy EnIists and Is Accepted
After Running Away From Home
and Roaming.

Syracuse, N. Y-Leaving home
after a quarrel with the trustees
of fortune left him at the death
of his parents several years ago, Karl
F. Thompson of Clark avenue, Cleve-
land, was accepted for service in the
United States navy, following the re-
ceipt of letter from the health au-
thorities at Cleveland as to his age
He said his nearest relative was
Charles B. Thompson of the same ad-
dress. Thompson, who is 19 years old,
appeared at the recruiting station in
this city two weeks ago, broke and
hungry, but we'll dressed and posses
sing an air of refinement. When ques.
toned by the recruiting officers the
young man said that he had been en-
ployed as travelling salesman for a
western firm for some time, but firing
of the work, decided to enlist in the
navy. When pressed for further par
ticulars concerning himself, the young
man stated that his parents died sew
eral years ago and left him fortune,
which he could not touch until he be-
came of age. Two years ago, during
a consultation with the trustees of the
money, he said an argument arose,
during which Thompson became angry
and decided to leave Cleveland. He
ran away from home and since that
time has been employed at various
jobs. In conversation with the navy
officers in this city the young man
showed that he was we'll educated.

Paris, France.-M. Bossiera, special
correspondent of the Excelsior, writ
Ing from Tripoli prefaces his letter by
saying that he instinctively appreci-
ates the fact that Tripoli has just been
the theater of one of the reddest dra-
mas of military history. He continues:
II cannot rid my eyes of it. / am
still sick and trembling with fever day
and night with sinister grand elo-
quence the cannon proclaimed the ubi-
guilty of the untiring death. 1t spared
none. But it was not this that upset
me, for we were at war and before
coming here we prepared for the
groans of the wounded and sight of
the dead, but who could ever have
imagined what we have had to look
upon the rush to assassinate the heca-
tombs of old men, women and chill
dren, execution by heaps, piles of
mangled flesh smoking under the wool
Of burning houses like human incense
burnt before the ruined altar of dearly
Botyky."
M. Bossiera goes on to recount
scenes of which he was eye witness.
Walls Besprinkled With Brains.
"An Arab with eyes full of ven
geance muttered, We were four broth
ers; now l am alone, but l must have
two Italians for each of my brothers.
While going away from the cavalry
post l came upon a hundred corpses
thrown against wall where they had
been shot down in horrible attitudes
all mixed up together. hurried away
to escape the sight and passed negro
village. A native family was there
around a burnt out fire where they
had been about to eat. They were
all dead. One little girl had thrust
her head into box so as not to see
anything. Another had fallen back
on to cactus bush. A small white
dog was running about among the
ruins, stopping every now and then to
uplift its head and howl. Bullets came
whistling past and I started away to
find myself near a prison hospital.
The prisoners had revolted, killed the
colonel and some officers; everyone of
them had been shot and the walls
We're besprinkled with blood.
Makes a Prophesy.
Whatever way / take to avoid
corpses l still find them. Even around
fires in the middle of the market
place within couple of hundred
yards of the governors palace. His ex.
planation of the miserable business is
that the Italians lost their heads en-.
tirely, that sort of madness had
taken hold of them. Their only ex.
cuse was that they had come to Trip,
oil certain of victory by reason OF
overwhelming force, but they had
found a subtle foe. They always felt
the unseen presence of the Arab, hid
den, soft footed, ready with his dag
ger. You can read the psychology Of
dread in almost every eye"
