the meantime a competent
stenographer will be kept in the

constipation.

HANGED AFTER 7 TRIALS
Execution Marks End of Remarkable
Case In Jurisprudence.

Execution MARKS Eno OF hemarkapfe
Case In Jurisprudence.
Waxahachie, Tex, Nov. 30.-Burrell
Oates, a colored man, convicted OF
murder eight years ago, was hanged
here.
The execution marked the end of a
remarkable case in Jurisprudence.
Oates, without money or influential
friends, obtained seven trials, and his
case was responsible for two changes
in Texas statutes. His fight for life
was the more remarkable by the fact
that in each of the seven trials jur. es
found him guilty of murder and six
of them condemned him to death. The
other jury, being unable to agree over
the penalty, caused mistrial, al
though declaring the defendant guilty.
The sixth triad was declared void
because the jury in writing it's verdict
inadvertently omitted the words lin
the first degree" In finding Oates
guilty.

From an excellent authority l have

has one covering of skin too few, such
as was the case with the late Duke of
Albany.
"Any notion of Thanksgiving, as
some fervent loyalists desired, for S
recovery has been severely suppressed.
He is to be regarded as an invalid
child, and In a vague way people have
come to believe that the boy is not to
be czar, as inevitably follows the stor-
les circulating of predictions of reli
gious mystics and suchlike that
Michael, the CHARS only brother, will
reign. Michael Is morganatically al
lied to the divorced wife of Russ an
cavalry officer and has two children
by her. He takes no part in political,
