Motor,

Mr. Keeley, the, ingenious and re* nowned inventor of the Keely motor# still conducts the business of ropirig fa credulous millionaires at the old stand. He recently gave an exhibition, which, according to the New York Times, consisted of a mixture of sandwiches, oysters, tSbaiiipagae, and talk, most of which was "unintelligible jargon." Pouring a glass of water into his motor a lever was gradually raised which Keely said measured a pressure of 22,000 pounds to the square inch. A "siWn" connected with the machine also uttered a slight ftereeeh, The pressure, Mr. Keely explained #*as an elastie pressure. The machine likewise, fitfid a bullet through a two-inch plank.' lie also scraped a tuning fork with his fiddle bow, which set a copper globe to rotating. The reporter askea the inventor to open a room which was immediately underneath the motor, but which was very carefully locked aud bolted. Mr. Keely, who was greatly taken aback by the request, peremptorily refused to do anything of the kind, because there was in that room an apr paratus for lifting Wdghts under construction for certain parties in Califort nia. The motor was soon exhausted} and Keely explained it by saying that the powor was "latent" in tbe motor. When asked why ho didn't keep tho machine moving for a week or two instead of for a moments, lie made no reply. When asked to explain the principle on which it was basod, he declined because'"it wO'uld tako a week.1'

HANGMAN'S DAY

Seems to Have Been Duly Celebrated On Its First Occurrence la 1882.

New Jersey, New York and Missouri Record the Fact That Hangtag is Not Played Out.

JEBSET CITY, N.«/., tfaif. 0.—Martin Kankowsky was executed in the Hudson county jail shortly after 10 A. M., for the murder of Mina Muller, in the woods near Gutenberg, May last.

When Kankowsky awoke this morning he said to Keeper Liddell, "My last morning," and at oiice got up and dressed. He partook of alight breakfast and soon after the sheriff entered the fcell of the doomed man and read the death warrant, after which Kankowsky's arms were pinioned and the noose adjusted. Kankowsky declared he was innocent and asked for an hour mere to live, the sheriff told him he had to die then and after protesting quietly agairist the black cap and pifrioning, he submitted [and walked quietly through the hall to the stairs where he stop jfed to say, good-bye to Inspector Lange. Soon thA procession was heard coming down stairs ana it entered the corridor headed by the sheriff's who were followed by Rev. Mr. Maas, reciting thejofflce for the dead, Immediately after came Kindowski supported by his keeper with the halter on his neck and a loose black cap on the back of his head, exclaiming in German "No, no I am innocent." As he passed between the jnry and deputies he turned to the deputies who Were ranged on the left side of the corridor and sfioOk hands with three or four of them, saying gctodbye. jferriving Under the gallows he stood up bravely find, throwing back his head, exclaimed in a I6*Ard,:firm voice, "In the name of the Father and of th9 Son and of the Holy Ghost I am innocent ox this thing. Father, forgive me and those who brought this disgrace upon the State 6f New Jersey. The Sheriff then pjilled the cap over his. face and while the noose WSS freing adjusted Kankowsky seemed about tS' fall, but instantly recovered his nerve and stfod erect. At 10:16 o'clock the trigger was sprung and Kankowsky was jerked about eighth feet into the air, breaking his neck instantly H« made a single convulsive movement and Sll was over. His body was delivered to his spifittial adviser. JRev. Mr. Maas, who will have it intetred

a corner of Weehawken cemetery. JOSEPH ABBOTT. ELMIBA, N. Y., Jan. 6—The execution of Joseph Abbott, convicted of killing George Reed, a fellow prisoner ia the New York State Reformatory, this city, in April, 1880, occurred to-day. Abbott arose at 6 o'clock and partook of a hearty breakfast, conversing cheerfully with the attendants and friends up to the time of the execution. The rope was cut by the sheriff at 11:15 and the prisoner jerked about four feet into the air. His neck was riot broken and he struggled about five minutes after the drop fell.

AT ST. LOUIS.

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 0.—Two murderers Joseph Michael Kotovsky and Charles Ellis the latter colored, were executed In the jail this morning. Both men retired to bed early last night. Ellis slept until nearly 5 o'clock but Kotovsky arose at 8 A. M. He complained of having passed a restless night. Both men then passed the time in prayer and religious exercises with Rev. Drs. Boyd, Claggett and others. They partook of alight breakfast and then, conversed with Baber and Ward who are to be hanged next Friday. The devotional exercises were resumed until the reading of the death warrant which took place in the jail. Father Brown accompanied Kotovsky, who was a' Catholic, to tho scaffold and Dr. Boyd, a Baptist clergyman, walked with Ellis. Kotovsky had shown great signs of weakening during tho merning hours and it was feared he would break down entirely and have to be carried to the gallows, but at the last moment he gained control ot himself and walked firmly to the scaffold. Having reached the platform more prayers were said, Kotovsky kneeling down during the exercises. When aefced if they had anything to sfty both men replied "nothing." The nooses were then adjusted and at exactly five minutes to nine o'clock the 'murderers were flung into eternity. Ellis' neck was broken but Kotovsky slowly strangled, grinding his teeth, hard breathing could be plainly heard for some moments. Two minutes after the drop was sprung the bodies were cutdcwn and carried to the Morgue where the physicians conducted experiments with galvanic batteries. Kotovsky wa3 $3 and Ellis 21 years of age About 1,000 persons were admitted to the jail to witness the execution and the crowd waB

disorderly in their scram

ble to obtain the best places. The crime lor which Kotovsky was executed was the murder cf a young girl named Augusta Semons, October 15th, 1878. She had been his sweetheart but had jilted him. He met her on the street on the evening named, and after speaking a few words to her placed one of his hands on her shoulder and with the other drew a revolver and fired, the ball penetrating her heart. The reason for tho crime is supposed to have been jealousy. Charles Ellis shot and killed Mack Sanders a colored roustabout, on May 9th 1880. A party of negroes were playing a game of "craps" in a saloon alongside of the river when a dispute arose about the game. Sanders and Ellis engaged in a controversy during which the former pulled out a knife. "Give me that knife," said Ellis, at the same time pulling out a revolver and firing. The ball took effect and Sanders died the same night.

STILL ANOTHER.

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 6—A Post-Dispatch special from Marshall, Mo, say?: Juhn A. Phelps was hanged here about noon, today, for tbe murder of Elijah Keyton, a wealthy farmer who lived near Brownsville in this (Saline) county, on the Dight oE the 23d of last April. Phelps worked on the farm, had a disagreement with Keyton about some work, and on thenigbt mentioned tdbove followed him to a feeding lot, a short distance from the house, killed him with an axe and robbed the body of abont $100. He made a confession some days ago detailing the manner in which the murder was committed, slightly implicating another workman on the farm named Chas. L. Wood, and atating that he (Phelps) had had it in his mind for three weeks before the mnrder to kill Keyton. Phelps was in love with Keyton'a daughter, but was strongly opposed by the old man, and to remove this obstacle to his happiness, in connection with the disagreement above mentioned, he brained him. TLe doomed man rose abont 5 o'clock this morning, dressed himself with unatnal care and ate a hearty breakfast. At 11:45 he was placed in a cloae carriage and taken to the ecafiold erected ia a ravine nearly two miles from 'town, where a crowd of several

thousand people were assembled. Miss Keyton was preeent, and wept bitterly. The condemned made a brief speech, in which he asked to be forgiven, warned all young men to beware oi his fate, and said he recognised his sweetheart in the crowd, at which the young girl wept hysterically, and Phelps himself was greatly moved. The Sheriff sprung the bolt at 12,'10 p. m., and the wretched man was dead in eight minutes. Great sympathy was manifested by the crowd for Phelps, and there were shonts of "Don't bang him!" He was a fine looking young man of 23 years, and was doubtless impelled to commit the bloody feed by his love for Keyton's daughter.

TflE DEADLY POLITICS.

How It Blights and Blasts tbe Innocent bat Impotent Cltltts. Peck's San.

The man who has once been addioted to politics finds it hard to reform and break th* fetters that bind him. He makes a resolve/ in his mind, that never again will he touch the fatal politics, and goes along for months without thinking of indulging, but in an unguarded moment after the campaign opens, he thinks of something that can be played on the opposition, and he takes the_ first Step, and then he goes down, until election day he is peddling tickets lik£ aft old stager, at night he is around hearing tbe return? at midnight he is whooping It op with the boys, and at 3 a. m. he goes up stairs at home on all fours, his hat overwhelmed by a good majority, his head as uncertain and wavering as the chances of his party, his tongne as thick as'opposition votes.and his breath as bad as the atmosphere in a malt house. He has lied to his wife about having to go to the lodge to give some high degrees to the Masons from the country, and when she smells his bresth she knows how high the degrees are, and it comes over her minute—not the breath, but the politics —that he has fallen from his high estate afld again sunken in the mire of politics. After the eleetion, and hia party is beaten usual, he swears tfpon a stack of bricks in his hat that he will tonch not, taste not, handle not the intoxicating and demoralizing politics but he lies and he knows it. What the country wants is a society for reforming men who are addicted iH t'ofitic?, a society where he can go when he feels ths appetite coming on, and have his thoughts tflr»«d to a differ* ent channel. He is weak, and he wants his brothers and sisters to take him by the hand—particularly the sisters—and brace him up and make him strong against the enemy. "When he feels like taking a hand in a campaign where he knowd he will surely fail, and coding ont with the smell c^keroeene and beer ofif his garments, and cheese on his breath, he tfants to feelthe strong arm of the society around his Waist, and hear the members singing the socga of #ion, instead of hurrahing for somebody for Justice of the Peace. But if a society were formed for the reformation of politician', iast about the time it got the converts strong enough to walk alone tbe conlounded society would nominate a ticket of its own and go into the campaign, making more noise tban all the othtr poiiiicul parties, and the rtfo'fBied-politioians v.ould ficd they had jumped out ol ihe frying-pan into the fire. *Twas ever thuH since childhood's hour.
