BIG DOUGLAS HOTEL
 STARTS THIS WEEK

DOUGLAS, May 5. - The Douglas hotel company, with a capitalization of forty thousand dollars, will begin the erection of forty-five room modern hotel in this city within the next for weight hours. John Feusi, the prin- cipal stockholder. announced this morning that by the first of July there will be constructed on his lot at the corner of D and Front streets a mod ern hotel which will equal anything in the north in its appointments and con. veniences. The building Is to be three stories in height.
 The proposition to build this hotel has been under consideration for a long time, and now preliminarles have been arranged so that the actual work is to begin at once. Architects are in Douglas today completing the plans for the structure and 1t will be only a question of few months until the city will enjoy this modern convenience.
 Mir. Feusl Is one of the citizens who has absolute faith in the progress and permanence of Douglas. His invest ments are made here and he is back ing his judgment in the construction of this hoteI the same as he had backed 1t before in building one the most com plete hardware stores in Southeastern Alaska. The other gentlemen asso- ciated with him are also boosters for Douglas. and when an association of local capital gets to boosting there can be but one result-success to the undertaking and prosperity to the com munity.

 With the reopening of the mining operations of the Alaska-Treasure company at Nevada creek, which now is but a question of short time, there will no doubt be Q government road built connecting that place with Treadwell which will add another five miles of highway to the present scheme.

Henry Spencer, alias Jinrich Ska
rupa, 35 years old, who has spent II
years in Illinois prisons, was hanged
today at Wheaton.
He stood ten minutes on the scat
fold at the Outage county Jail and
in cool, even voice made speech
saying he wondered that Jesus can
love a crook like me-" He recited
three long psalms from memory and
would have kept on with more psalms
and delayed the law if Rev. William
Evans hadn't touched him on the
shoulder and began prayer.
Evans voice was saying "the mercy
OF God is extended to all sinners"
when the trap was sprung and Spen-
GERS body dropped a swift eight feet.
Between the hood over the head and
the shroud above the shoulders could
be seen long, bloodless cash where
the neck was broken.
Spencer was dressed in white
trousers, white shoes, white silk
shirt and blue tie. Over his heart
on the white shirt was red rose.
He seemed to be in perfect health,
little stout, with clear skin and eyes.
DR.. E. H. Higley of Glen Ellyn,
who has been called for service in
courts as an alienist, was present. He
was asked by Day Book reporter
whether he had interviewed Spencer
and had a chance to examine as to
sanity. He said he had, but he didn't
care to,say what he had learned.
From a reliable source the inform
alton came to The Day Book that
DR.. Higley was called in during the
Spencer trial and after his examina-
ton he went to States Attorney
Charles Hadley of DuPage county
with the fiat declaration, Spencer is
crazy" After this Higley was not
engaged.
After the hanging today Dr. Higley
met a Day Book reporter on the main
rE- sc H.

The hanged mans father was
Bohemian day laborer who drank
hard and died by his own hand. Two
of his sisters were suicides. They
were slum family with a record had
to get at. Part of his boyhood was
spent in the Home for FriendlesS
Boys. His first arrest and sentence
were for stealing suit of clothes.
When arrested Oct. for the muir
der of Mildred Acknowledgement, he
made a confession to 20 murders, two
of policemen, but mostly women.
At his trial he jumped up suddenly
one day and demanded he be placed
on the judges bench, telling Judge
Slusser, You don't know the law"
Later he demanded jury of women.
The jury was out seven hours. When
a death sentence verdict came back,
Spencer said, That's fine, get rope
right away"
Briefs in the hands of Chicago at
torneys assert Spencer's fater and his
forefathers weer insane. Gov. Dunno
reprieved after seeing these docu-
ments. He sent three alienists, form
er Supt. Hinton of the Elgin asylum,
Supt. Singer of the Kankakee asy-
lum, and DR.. Seller of Springfield.
They passed the final death sentence
in their word to Gov. Dunno that
Spencer was sane.
A. L. Sears, a farmer three miles
north of Wheaton, who was a jury
man to convict Spencer, came in to
see the hanging. "a life for a life is
right" said Sears. eff you kill me
without provocation then you ought
to be killed"
'Cut out the shocking details and
don't make the story gruesome for
the home editions" was the 3order
that came to the one reporter from a
big afternoon paper. He wired back:
'Will make story pleasant as pos
sible."
