Make Child Heir.


TRENTON. y. L.. August 3.--ln the
death house at the State prison, only
few feet from the chamber in which
he is scheduled to be executed Friday,
Salvatore Mcrra yesterday went
through the ceremony of marriage. A
tousle.headed boy Of two and half
witnessed the somber nuptials.
Merra's bride was the woman with
whom he lived for some time before
he slew Theodore NJ. Conway, elderly
paymaster of the Public Service Cor
poration, in Newark more than year
ago.
Merra reached through the bars of
his cell and clasped the woman's hand
while the ceremony was being per
formed.
Five inmates who occupy cells in
the same tier in which Merra has lain
for seven months while desperate
legal battle was waged for his life,
heard the words of the priest as he
intoned the ritual.
Fornfafities were waived by officials
in order that the son of the doomed
man might be given the rights of
legitimate heir to property in Italy.
His attorney has contended that life
Imprisonment was intended for Merra

with the recommendation appearing
as last phrase. At a hearing before
Federal Judge Runyon, however, the
Jury foreman testified that death was
intended for Merra.

PARIS. August 3.--Tourists from the
land Of the free and the dry are as
sured OF receiving pure water to drink
when they arc in France this summer.
If they prefer it,. Fearful lest the lack
of a purified supply of "Peau potable"
should interfere with the influx of
American dollars from the pockets of
participants in the great summer ex-
odus now embarked on the high seas,
many resorts and watering places on
the coast have put in plants to render
water fit for drinking.
Electricity is the favored agent for
sterilizing the water in most To-
calities, especially in those sections
where neighboring waterfalls are a
cheap source of power. The typhoid
bacilli and other water borne germs
are not eletrocuted but are done to
death by the liberation of ozone, a
super powerful form of oxygen. The
method is said to he so efficient and
cheap that the city OF Paris is con
siderinc the feasibility of introducing

lovable English clergyman who has
twin daughters, lively and irrepres-
sible. When one of the girls starts
out to capture her sisters admirer,
she discovers that the young man in
question is a devotee to the prim and
proper. Therefore, she poses in Grim

and the admirer succumbs. The flap
