A BOTCHED JOB.

CHICAGO, Jan. 29.—George H. Painter was hanged in the corridor of the eounty jail at 8:03 a. m. Friday for the murder of Alice Martin. The execution was marred .and, delayed by an unfortunate aegcident. At the first attempt made to carry out the sentence of the law ..at 7:59 the rope broke, carrying the condemned man to the floor with a heavy crash. Blood streamed from a wound in hés head and dyed the white shroud in which his form was enveloped: with deep crimson stains.

Then the body was dragged | ~to the drop again, while suddenly cries ; ' from the prisoners in other parts of the - jail brcke in upon the almost deathlike ' stillness. They had in some way l learned that the drop had fallen.. The cries and shrieks were taken up from l cell tocell, and from tier to tier until I - pandemonium seemed to have broken { loose. The bailiffs were sent back to | stop the thrilling clamor. - ] - There was a pause in the proceedings | until thé cries could be stopped, and | then the. body was placed a second time under the rope. It was a difficult | task to fix the mnovse, and the scene was revolting. Blood had trickled to the bottom of the shroud and the hood was saturated. The neck had | been broken in the first fall and the | “head had to be held up while the noose ! was put over it. Tlen it was foundt that with the body flat on the drop there would be almost no fall, ani it ! had to be pulled baclk to the inner | edge, where it could be support- ! ed in- a sitting- position by one ' of the jail officials standing on *he | moge solid part of the scaffold.

Painter kept up his courage to the ! last. He had takenliquor tostrengthen ’ him before beginning his march to the | scaffold. He walked to the platform | without a tremor. On the scaffold he | made a brief speech, concluding as fol- E lows: - i Mlf I killed Alice Martin—the woman I dear- | ly loved, the womanl loved so much that I | would have almost committed o crime for her, | I pray this minute—my last minute on carth | —that |the Iternal .| God , 'will - put me ’ into eternal hell.

SEALED WITH A KISS. ;_

Consummation of the Reconciliation Between William and Bismarck, -

BERLIN, Jan. 29.—Prince Bismarck, with his son, Count Herbert, and several friends, left. Friedrichsruhe at 9:30 olcloek a. m. and arrived in Berlin at 2 o'clock p..m. Friday. The great exchancellor was welcomed at the station by Prince Henry, of Prussia, the emperor’s brother; the governor of Berlin, and a large suite of officers. Upon the arrival of the train at the Lehste station -in this city Prince Henry stepped out from the groupsurrounding him and walked to the carriage occupied by the ex-chancellor.. He warmly shook hands with Prince Bismarck and Count Herbert. The party then walked to the royal state coachin waiting. + . The cheering and salutations from the crowds that had gathered to witriess his entry into the city evidently pieased him very much. He smiled in response to the ecries of welcome and saluted the crowd .frequently.

| The route from the monument of . Frederick the Great to the palace gates l was lined with members of the vet- . erans’ guilds, firemen, rifle unions and f turners’ societies. Most of the houses _ along the route were decorated with ' flags: The entire population of ' Berlin, swelled by thousands of peo- ‘ ple from all parts of Germany, had ap- | parently turned out to welcome the re- ' turn of the prince, and the younget el- - ement -in the crowds cheered themE selves hoarse as the state coach@assed - along. Dr, Schweininger rode in a cab l at the rear of the procession. | When the party arrived at the castle | Prince Bismarck and Prince Henry del scended from the state coach and eni tered. The emperor, who was standing at the foot of the stairs to receive Ehis giiest, wore- as a special mark of - honor -the uniform of the Bismarclk kcuimssiers. _His reception of the old istatesman was of the warmest and 'most cordial nature. His majesty em- ' braced the prince with the utmost heartiness, and a kiss pressed on the old man’s cheek sealed the reconciliation between the emperor ayd the greatest,of ‘his subjects. Prince Bismarck’s gravity of demeanor during his ‘reception by his majesty was: much commented upon. o ' Prince Bismareck’s .arrival at the castle was followed by an enthusiastic succession of demonstrations upon the part of the people: Thousands upon thousands of people packed the square in front of -the castle, singing the national anthem, ‘“Wacht am Rhein” and “*Deutchland über Alles.” The ; enthusiasm :was so great that the emperor and .empress, the young princes and Prince Bismarck repeatedly appeared ata window in responseo these manifestations, which continue\l, throughout the afternocon. At 3 o'clock Chancellor Von Caprivi, followgd by/all the secretaries of state, called at the castle and left their cards for Prince Bismarel. The #rain taking Prince Bismarck back to ¥riedrichsruhe left this city shortly after 7:30 p. m. Emperor William accompanied the ex-chancellor to the railroad station, and they were escorted from the palace to the depot by a strong detachment of cuirassiers and by all the members of the general staff, as well as by a number of gen--erals. At the Lehrte railroad station the emperor warmly shook Prince Bismarck’s hand at the door of the carriage which was to convey him back to +is home. oy i :

The same scenes of enthusiasm upon the part of the populace which were witnessed during the passage’of Prince Bismarck from the railway station tc the palace upon his arrival here were re« peated during the passage of the prince and emperor from the palace back to the railroad station. =

Upon parting with Prince Bismarck Empercor William repeatedly kissed the veteran upon both cheeks andafter the latter had entered the railroad carriage the emperor turned to. Count Herbert von Bismarck and addressed a few words to him, the first in a very long while. The emperor then resumed his conversation with Prince Bismarek, who leaned out of the carriage window bareheaded in order to converse with

his majesty. . - ! This exhibition of good feeling be- | tween the emperor and the prince! called forth loud cheers from the pers ‘ sons assembled in the depot, and then i the whole assemblage joined in singing | “Deutschland Ueber Alles.” As the | train drew out of the depot there was | a stormy of ‘‘hochs,” to.which applause | Prince Bismarck smiled and bowed. } AGAINST THE TOILERS. | Judge Rich's Answer to Clover Leaf Em- ; - ployes’ Petition. l ?

The receiver in his answer to ! the petition of the employes said the ! reduction was absolutely necessary because the earnings of the road for the | last half of the year 1893 show a decrease | of over 365,000, or at therate of $2,000 | a. day as compared with the same ! period of 1892. 'The court after re-| viewing the statements of the petition- | res and the answer of the receiver and | referring to various deecisions in similar | cases says that the unforiunate finan- i cial condiérion of the road and of the | country males it impossible for him to | restrain the receiver from reducing | wages. . = o ; 1 - MADE A CCNFESSION. ‘ Bob Stitler Impl'lc;;; Three Others in the seminole Train Robbery at ¥ort Smith. } Forr Swmirg, Ark., Jan. 20.—Bob+ Btitler, the fourth member of the Sem- 5 imole train- robbers, appeared unex- | pectedly at the trial as a witness for‘ the \prosecution. .

ANEW ENGLAND MIRACLE A Railroad Engineer Relates His . Hxperience. . . The Wonderful Story Told by Fred C. Vose and His Mother-in-Law to' a Reporter of the Boston Herald— : Bothk Are Restored After - : Years of Agomny. : ¢ > g o {From the Boston Herald.] ' . L The vast health-giving results already attributed by the newspapers throughout this’ country and Canada to Dr. Williams’ “Pink Pills for Pale People” have been recently supplemented by the cases of twoconfirmed invelids.in one household in a New England town. The ngmes of these people are Freq C. Vose, his wife and. his mother-in-law, Mrs. Oliver C. Holt, of Peterbore, mem: bers of the same household. ! T

To the Herald reporter who was sent to investigate his remarkable cure Mr. Vose said: “I am 37 years old, and have béen railroading for the Fitchburg for 15 years. Since boyhood I have been troubled with a weak stomach. For the past 7 years I bave suffered terribly and .censtantly. My stomach would notretain food; my head ached constantly and was so dizzy I could scarcely stand; my eyes were blurred; I had abad heartburn and my breath was offensive. I had physicians, but they failed to help me. My appetite gave out, and four years ago 1 deve.oped palpitation of the heart, which seriously affected my breathing. Had terrible pains in my back and had to makeé water many times a day. I finally developed rneumatic signs and couldn’t sleen nights. If I lay down my heart would go pit-a-pat at a great rate; and many nights I did not close my éyes at all, ‘I was broken down in body and discouraged in spirit, when some time in February last, I got a couple of boxes of Dr, Williams' Pink Pills. Before I had finished the first box I noticed that the palpitation of my heart, which had bothered me so that I couldn’t breathe at times, began to improve. ‘I saw that in going to my home on the hill from the depot, which was previously an awful task, my heart did not beat so violently and I had more breath when I reached the house. After.the'second and third boxeslgrew bet: ter in every other respect. My stomaeh became stronger, the gas belching was not, 80 bad, my appetite and digestion improved, and my sleep became nearly natural andundisturbed. ' I have continued taking the pills three times a day ever since last ‘March, ané-to-day I am feeliag better than at any time dufiag the last eight years. I can confidently and conscientiously saythat they have done me more good, and their good eifects are more permanent; than any medicine I have ever taken. }iy rhieumatic ‘pains in legs and hands are all gone. The pains in the small of my back, which were so bad at times that I couldn’t stand up straight, have mnearly -all vanished, and‘i find my kidneys are well regulated by them. This is an effect not claimed for the pills in the circuldr, but in my case they brought it about. liam feeling 100 per cent. better, in. every shape and manner.” e The reporter next saw Mrs. Holt, who said: “Tam 57 years old, and for 14 years Easb I have had an intermittent heart troule. Three years ago I had nervous pros< tration, by which my heart trouble was increased so badly that I had to liedown most of the time. My stomach also gave out, and I had continual and intense pain from the back of my neck to the end of my backbone.. In 14 weeks I spent 200 for docz)r bills and medicines, but my health continued so mis< erable that I gave u]g doctoring in desllajair.. I began to take Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills last winter, and the first box made me feel ever so much better. Ihave taken the pills since Februdry, with the result of stopping entirely the pain in the spine and in the region of the liver. My stomach is again . normal, and the palpitation of the heart has troubled me but three times gince I commenced the pills.” o e An analysis of Dr.. Williams’ Pink Pills. shows that they contain, in a condensed form. all the -elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood andrestore shattered nerves. They areanunfailing ‘ specifit for such diseasesaslocomotorataxia, partial paralysis, St. Vitus’® dance; sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous headache the after effect of la grippe, palpitation of the heart,-pale and sallow complexions; all Torms of weakness either in male or female, and all diseases resulting from vitiated humors in the blood. Pink Pills are sold by all dealers, or will be sent post paid on receipt of price, (50 cents a hox,orsix hoxesfor §2.so—they are never sold in bulk or by the 100) by addressing Dy.

TITLED EXECUTIONERS, : Headsmen Who Acquired A dditional Let- ~ ters to Their Names. 2 That the degree of M. D. shovld ever have been zounferred upon a man or men solely on account of his or their proficiency in cutting off human heads sounds highly improbable, but itis a historic fact that such an honor was once actually accorded to two executioners at Stuttgart. A sword kept at the museum -at that place has this queer legend or inscription engraved upon the blade *“Dono wrong and no harm will betide thee,” e | This is the implement of death that was successfully used by four brothers, Mavrcus, Jakob; Andreas and Johann Bicknel, four hardened villains: who ‘‘oceupied the: chair” as chief execuLiougrs at Stuttgart, the old royal residence and metropolis of Wurtemberg, between the years 1660 and 1691. The instrument, which is a clumsy but horpid looking affair, is said to have done death to no fewer than thres hundred and fifteen criminals during the reign of the brothers Bicknel alone. In thé year 1680 Emperor Ferdinand happéned to arrivéd in Stuttgart at the moment when two culprits were being led to the block, which stoed upeon what was known as the ‘Cheese,” a circular inclosure of . boards filled in with . earth:. The emperor watched every detail of the execution, which. was performed by the two oldest of the Bickrpel brothers, Marcdus and Jakob, and is said to have been ‘‘highly pleased.” In fact he must have been really delighted with the artistic manner in which the duty was discharged, {for we are told that he then and there conierred upon the brothers the. title of doctor, and irom that moment they were authorized and+empowered to practice as physicians and surgeons to the best of their abilities.—Detroit Free Press. i -
