- MRS. MARY ROGERS WILLIAMS DENIED FINALLY HANGED Woman Who Murdered Husband at Ben- nington, Vt., in This Afternoon. Windsor, Vt., Dec. 8—Mrs. Mary Mabel Rogers was hanged | at the Vermont state prison at 1:13 this afternoon for the mur- der of her husband at Benning- ton, Aug. 13, 1902. The execu-| tion took place after the woman had been twice repreived on ac- count of appeals made by courn- cil and after the United States| supreme court had refused to take any action in the matter. Only comparatively few persons witnessed the hanging, the num- ber being restricted by the state laws. CONCERT WAS EXCELLENT Bemidji Band Pleased Large Audience at City Hall Last Night. A crowded house greeted the Bemidji band at the city hall last night when Bemidji’s musical organization appeared for the first indoor concert of the season. The first part of the program consisted of selections rendered by the band and was composed of seven numbers. Althrugh the band is made up of but 11 musi- cians, the selections were excel- lently rendered and each mem- ber of the band showed remark- able ability, considering that the baud has been organized but four | months. The second part of the pro- gram, which consisted of yocal and instrumental selections, was also good. Director Symington’s solos on violin and cornet were especially good, while the vocal selections rendered by S. E. De-| Long and Misses McTaggart, Bailey and Brannon received generous applause. After the concert the ‘Bemidji orchestra furnished music for a dance which drew a large crowd and proyed i0o be an enjoyable affair. One of the facts demonstrated at the concert last night was Mr, | Symington’s ability as a director. Less than four months ago the! band was made up ofi a few amateur musicians capable of playing only the simplest music. Today the band can be compared favorably with any other musical | organization in northern Mione- sota, and wbile some credit is due to the members of the band, i the efforts of Mr. Symington are | largely respoasible for the con- dition of the band at the present time, Read The Daily Pioneer. !
