Western Murderer Makes a "Blood Atonement" Executed By Shooting
(National News Association) SALT LAKE. Utah.. Feb. 21. "For God's sake don't shoot me not that way! I know I chose shooting when the Judge asked me whether I preferred shooting or hanging, but I don't want to be shot not now. Hang me, but don't shoot me!" Shrieking and impotent with fright, Frank Romeo, convicted of murdering Albert Jenkins, a gambler, of Price, Utah, collapsed as he was led toward a chair in the yard of the penitentiary to be executed. As the Utah law permits, he was given his choice as to the death penalty, but last Saturday the Board of Pardons commuted the sentence of Robert Zaffy, his accessory, to life imprisonment. - Both had been sentenced to be shot yesterday. It is thought that the effect of the Pardon Board's action was to change Romeo's mind about being shot. In a panic of fear., Romeo dropped to the ground. He was picked up by deputies and carried to the chair. Father Vincent, a Catholic priest who attended him in his last hours, was at his side. The man had been blindfolds d in his cell. Dr. Lund, the prison physician, pinned a traget over Romeo's heart. The murderer could not sit erect. His face twitched in an agony of fear, and it seemed that his spine was too weak to hold him up. He was tied back in the chair. Five riflemen stood behind a screen 30 feet away. One of the guns con tained a blank cartridge, and none of the five knew which weapon loaded. The last person to leave Romeo's side was the priest. As Father Vincent stepped aside four bullets entered the murderer's heart. The priest advanced and placed his hand over the wounds preparatory to administering extreme unction. The blood spurted NEW YORKER PAWNS HIS FALSE TEETH (National News Association) KANSAS CITY, Mo, Feb. 21. Emanuel Michalis, 23, said to be a scion of a wealthy New York family, pawned his false teeth to obtain 25 cents with which to hmy something to eat.

His father, he says, is S.-Michaelis, president of the Citizen's Union Realty & Mortgage Company and lives at 230 West 99th street. New York. The youth left home last month to seek his fortune, but fell in with gamblers.

The story, of a melodramatic character, runs rapidly on to its climax and j gives the score added vivacity. j The Aborns. as stated here the other day. are doing the general public an incalculable service in staging grand ' opera in English and in taking their productions to the smaller cities. j rrotu Tne presentation made here last, evening would give the company pres-1 "SS On a H1UCJ1 IttI I IIU 111 n biceer citv. and the fact that Rich-! mond saw the presentation as it is I given in the latter is significant. ! ne S(,,inss were elaborate and lent 'verisimilitude to the action, that of xh first act- showing the garden of j the palace with its formal effects in ; the manner of the sophisticated Italian,! landscape, being charming.

of flexibility and dramatic power, the purely histrionic phases of her presentation exceeding those of any member of the cast. Miss niggers being an actress of acumen as well as a singer of magnetic charm. Her minor part in the singing of the famous "Miserere." given in the last act by Leonora and Manrico. was effective, this presentation of the celebrated duet between the tenor and the soprano, being one of the successes of the evening and eliciting great enthusiasm. The other principals included "Count di Luna." taken by Louis d'Angelo. who sang in excellent form but whose voice is a rather harsh baritone; "Inez," taken by Miss Harriet Kuttner. who has a light soprano of sweet quality; "Ruit." sung by Samuel Adams, and "Ferrando," by Francis J. Tyler, all of whom were well cast. The choruses were effectively costumed and sang well. The whole presentation was of the highest order of theatric and musical excellence and this city is to be congratulated upon the company's visit here.
As stated the other day. If the company received the support of the local public it would make one or two presentations of grand opera in English an annual institution in Richmond What the decision was from last night's audience has not been announced. As usual, however. Richmond turns down lhe good things and plays up the medicore. This is one of the "best things" that has ever been in the city of its class and those who did not hear it are to be commiserated. E. G. W.
