an extent that it equals if not
surpasses that ever the hanging of Merrick and Achey on the 29th of January last. Sheriff Pressley, who is in a position to best judge of the popular pulse on the subject, says the demands for tickets of admission is greater than last winter. Thus far he has declined to answer letters and telegrams asking
favors of this kind, as they came in so thick that it would have been impossible to attend to them all. In conversation with, a News repoiter this morning the sheriff stated that all things are in readiness for the dread event, and that at 12 o'clock precisely eternity will open to the doomed man. The arrangements at and about the jail are the tame as made for the hanging of Merrick and Achey, and the same precautions will be taken to prevent a rush of the crowd. The jail will be surrounded bv a rope, and the space within will be kept clear by a detail of policc. Should the crowd become unruly, a stream of water will be turned upon them. The gallows is in good working order, and presents, of course, the same appearance as when first used. The roof of the women's cell, opposite the gallows, will afford standing room for tnose invited to witness the execution. The officers of the court and others whose duty requires them to be present, will have a place on the p»*to foaw. The press will be accomodated immediately in front of the scaffold, on the previous occasion.
The crowd about the jail yard increased this morning and after the decision of the supreme court was known the number Was largely augmented.
THE PRISONER'S CONDUCT. Knowing that his actions, under the circumstances, would be closely watched, Guetig braced up somewhat yfcsterdaj afternoon, and this morning jailor O'Brine could see nothing unusual in his appearance or conduct. He performed his duties as "grub boss" with usual alacrity, but without hilarity. Father's Q'Donaghue and Seller visited him and were closeted with the pofisoner fcr l.l'ii halt an hour. At the end of that time they departed, after announcing that they could make no impression upon Guetig. Only those persons who are in a fit state ot mind can receive the extreme unction of the Catholic church. There teems to be a total lack of emotion in Guetig's character. This morning his uucle Henry and brother, accompanied by two or three frinds from the Spencer house called at the jail while the reverend gentlemen /were present, and
were
the doomed
awful position,
At this outbreak the Shameless creature bwrst into a laugh, and this grief and pain seemed to afford him only pleasure
-*ad amusement. 11 o'clock this morning the ruling of the supreme-court on the Guetig case was biought down stair* to the office of the clerk ot ^fce supreme court, from the chambers hei .the judges were in con sultation. Thedtafoion is made by Jugde Horace P. Biddle, aU the other judges concuring. Guetig's attorneys were not present when the papers came in but arrived soon after. They were not at all surprised at the decision, affirming his sentence, taking the ruling as a matter of course. HOW GUBTIG RECEIVED THE NEWS.
Immediately after the decision of the supreme court was announced, a News reporter repaired to the jail, and was the first to give the information there. It was then concluded to wait 1 short time before they informed the prisoner, to search the cell he was to be imprisoned in and arrange for the guard to watch him. Between twelve and one o'clock. Deputy Sheriff Charles Reynolds went into the jail and told Guetig of the final decision of the court. The doomed boy shrugged his shoulders, remarking, /Well, I suppose there is no help for it I guess1*11 have to stand it not showing the slightest symptoms of remorse. He followed the sheriff into his cell where he was searched, and where he is now confined under a close watch to prevent any evasion of the death penalty. HE WILL DIE WITHOUT THE PALE OF
THE CHURCH.
"It is probable that Guetig will not be attended by a priest in his dying moments," said his Father O'Donaghue to a News reporter this noon. "Father Seiler, the priest who has been attendding to Guetig told him yesterday that be must give up the visits ot the prostitute, who is making herself notorious by running after him. He refused to do anything of the sort The father, in order to make sure of his duty in that particular, laid the case before the bishop thithis morning, who told him that as a matter of course Guetig must give up his evil
associates if he desires to die in the church. It is making a public scandal for him to receive the woman and is considered proof of a bad disposition in desiring her to continue her visits." "This morning," continued the father, "Father deiler and I went to the jail, and I told Guetig that he must either give up t'.ie womam or the church. The church didn't intend to save one who so obstinately refused to be saved. His future was now in his own hands he could do as he pleased, bat he must n"»t expect the priest to visit him so long as h« encouraged that woman to call on him. He dodged the question by saying that no one would know it. I told him every one would know it, and besides that wasn't the trouble he must give up the prostitute or he couldn't possibly hope for any good to come ot his connection with the church or the visits and' ministrations of the prieit^.%^ He said he "didn't want .to say that he wanted the priests to stay iway, but the woman must come." 'All right,' said I, 'then the priests will not come

By Associated Pross INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 19—The execution of Louis Guetig took place at noon. He murdered Mary McGle^ just one year ago to-day because she refused to renew a marriage engagm^nt with him which shp had previously broken off on account of his habits of dissipation. He has had two trials, and was sentenced to death both times. He has seemingly been indifferent to his fate and only last night would he consent to ministrations ol the clergy. At 11.50
IN MOUNTING THE SCAFFOLD and during all the proceedings, he maintained a truly wonderful exhibition of nerve. He spokfe?a few words, askinlg forgiveness df any hie hail wronged, and announced himself ready to suffer the penalty of the la* without complaint. He then turned ana wiyked about the scaffold, shaking hands and

At 10 o'clock his spiritual advisers went to his cell and counselled with him praying for his soul' Ten minutes before noon in company wilh his spiritual advisers, the Sheriff and deputy, and his brother George from Louisville, he ascended the scaffold in a careless and iidifferent manner. Aris. ing from prayer he stepped to the front listened to the reading of the death war rant with great coolness, and to the question: "Have you anything to say be fore the execution?" drew from his pocket and in a voice that would have jdone cred it to a public speaker, read a farewell address declaring himself ready to die. After begging forgiveness from friends and foes at noon, the cap was drawn over his eyes, and in sixtien minutes, Louis Guetig's soul was in eternity. He bjd his triend* a cordtal good-bye, shaking hands with many. He was dressed in a neat suit of black with slippers, and died with only a few spasmo'tic contractions of the muscle*.

THE CHAIN OF EVIDENCE WHICH A WIFE UND AROUND A RECREANT -HUSBAND.
PromFnday's Daily. i?
It's deuced true that "hell hath no iury like a woman wronged." The GAZETTE has listened to the-details of a trap which Mrs. laid for her untrue spouse trhkh is quite a good instance of the shrewdness a woman may show when her ingehuity is led by overweaning curiosity and jedousv. It is the old story. Her husband had been fascinated by the wiles of a young-blonde resident of Indianapolis on whom he lavished his money and caresses. The wife knew nothing but suspected much. It is hard to tea the woman's story briefly but here it is:
She first saw an address—Maude B— in her husband's order book. Then she got the torn fragments of a letter from a friend mentioning his "Daisy.'* Later she went to Indianapolis, found
"Daisy,"
deceived her by saying that she bad been sent to bring her over here to meet her Terre Haute fellow. They slept together that night, the unsuspecting girl told the wife the whole story of her intimacy with the husband and laughed over the deceit they were practicing on Mrs. of the scheme they had laid to get her clothes and send them East and procure a divorce. They came here in company and the wife, whose identity was wholly unknown by the girl, got a number of letters from her (the girl's) trunk which the husband had wniten. She planned a meeting between the three. The girl and the husband were much astonished. There was a scrimmage and then the guilty pair left town leaving the wife iu full possession.
THE Prairieton schools will open jn October.
JOURNALIST PEDESTRIANS. From the Indianapolis Herald. St. Louis had an editorial walking match on Saturday, participated in by representees of the Globe Democrat, Times, Journal, Post Dispatch, Westliche Post, Anzeiger, Amerika and Volkstimme, The prizes were a gold watch and chain, a suit of (clothes, a "solid silver" ice pitcher, a French clock and a W hater's Dictionary, a student lamp and gold cuff buttons, and a box of Havana cigars. The consolation prize given to the man that walked the least number of miles, was a gold scarf din. This was the first walking match between members of the press that ever occurred in this country. It was designed to ibster pedaneous skill and elevate the standard of editorial and reportorial leg development. It ushers in the dawning of a day ot tremendous underpinning it is the forerunner of an era in journalistic muscle and agility that will revolutionize the pres?. In a few years it will have so completely changed the qualifications of a newspaper man that a managing editor will only need to glance at an applicant's legs to see if he is capable of filling a vacancy. Would not something in the pedaneous line be worth trying here among the fraternity? Of course the first prize would be carried off by ther Mr. Reedj of the People, or Dr. Levison of the German Telegraph but it would be interesting for the rest of us to try, 411 the same. We are not so sure about those two fleet-footed fellows getting it, either. If Dr. Hawn, of Leavenworth, was entered, their char ces might be slim Any of us might get the consolation prize. Let all unite in a grand effort to elevate the standard ot iournalistic pedestrian ism.?!
HAPPY HORTICULTURISTS.
From Saturday's Daily.
MEETING AT JOHN WEIR'S YBSTEBDATF. Seventy-five buggies and carriages were *1 the rendesvous. Mr. John Weir's house was only half a mile further on When we arrived there the old gentleman stood on bis porch in utter amazement. As his visitors shook his thands,
tears filled
his eyes, and he could' not understand the demonstration. Everybody congratulated Mr. Weir and his wife, everybody congratulated everybody over and over again, and pleasant things were heard on every side. It was the eighteenth anniversary of Mr. Weir's wedding day, and the Horticultural Society were there to celebrate it. The bride and groom never suspected our coming, and for a long while could not understand it. Soon the ladies began to be mysterious looking and uneasy, as if they had a secret and could not keep it an longer
They were senfc to consult a lawyer, who went into the house with them, looking as full of mystery as they did. Everybody went in too. And Mr. and Mrs." Weir were sitting side by 6ide, much Confused but very happy. The lawyer (Mr. Mack it was) told them why their friends- 1 had come to them on this day, that we wished them great joy, that we come bearing presents—not valuable cxcept as tributes of honest and earnest friendship, and a set of china, decorated with emblems of horticulture, was presented. Then Mrs. Jones recited lines full of beauty and of good wishes. Mr. Weir could hardly speak, but he and his wife looked an answer that we all understood.
We soon had dinner, and a famous dinner it was. You couldn't for the life of you, think of anything worth having for dinner, that had not been brought by the ladies.
After dinner Mr. Weir told us of old times in Honey Creek—-how the boys went courtir.g barefooted how riding parties consisted of three, a lady, a gentleman and one torse how he took the candle8, made from the suet ofone sheep, and butter Irom one weeks' churning, to Terre, Haute, and absolutely glutted thie market. And Capt* Potter, with, his funny questions and his funny, pleasant li|tle speeches, kept us laughing.

Our informant, who heard a portion of the work read, says it is superior to the "Fair God," and will undoubedly make a hit There was considerable good-na-tured fun poked at General Wallace's "ocelots" and Maquahuitls," but the "Fair God" was a great success, all the same, in a financial as well as a literary poin.t^.|jf view.—[Indianapolis Herald.
AN AD ERT1SING JOB.

To-dav the bills were approved and paid in full— Journal, $400 Sentinel, $400—Repub lican $200—$100. The same amount of advertising could have been readily secured by any business man for half the money, and the papers would have been glad to get it. The pretense of charging for it by legal rates, so much per square doesn't count for anything as it isn't a legal advertisement. It will be a long time before the countv gets the money out of it.—[Indianapolis News.
