The body was pronounced lifeless in fourteen minutes. The hanging was entirely without incident. Glover did not make a statement. He accepted the religious ministrations of a Catholic priest. His brother, Oscar Glover, was at the prison but remained at the Cap- tain’s office during the execution. Glover was convicted on September 8, 1902, of having killed Nlerhoff near Auburn on the 11th day of June, 1902, and on September 29, 1902, he was sen- tenced by Judge Prewett of Placer County to be hanged seventy-five days later. The matter was delayed by an appeal to the Supreme Court, which re- sulted in the affirmation of the judg- ment of the lower court. On January 11, 1904, he was resentenced to be hanged on February 6. An appeal for executive clemency was made by his attorney. The killing of Nierhoff by Glover was presumed to have been the outcome of an attachment formed by the latter for the former’s fourteen-year-old daugh- ter, Agnes Nierhoff. Willlam Glover and his brother, Oscar, were owners &and operators of a mine on the Ameri- can River, near the Nilerhoff ranch. They were frequent visitors to the Nierhoff home, and unknown to the parents of Agnes an attachment was | formed between her and Willlam | Glover, who was about twice her age. The father requested Glover to cease paying attention to his daughter, and the latter ordered him to keep away from the premises. On the day of the murder Glover pald a visit to Miss Nierhoff in the absence of the father. As he was leaving the house Nierhoff | arrived. Some words ensued and Nierhoff was shot by Glover, who had a rifle with him. Miss Nlerhoff and | Oscar Glover were witnesses to the shooting. The Coroner’s jury rendered | a verdict to the effect that the killing was premeditated and without provo- cation, and also that Oscar Glover was an accessery to the crime. | The trial of William Glover lasted | | was at church, but left at once and ‘Pr"‘ pe mf: pr.nhm,e The Prussian Government has decided t of the County Clerk’s of-|,, ;3 an agricultural school at De- This segregation is ed UPON | 1o 0 n in the province of Saxony, near fice. a previous report of the Clerk's of- |, gaxon frontier.

Ryan, State Com- missioner of Public Works, the auditing board of the commission and Colonel ‘W. H. Heuer, representing the Federal Government, with reference to the re- llef of the river section from the effect of annually recwrring floods. Colonel Heuer said there were two ‘ways of solving the problem—one by a cut-off and the other by widening the channel. He added that personally he favored the widening of the channel. The down-river land owners argued in support of a cut or channel through Horseshoe bend. This proposition was favordbly considered by the commis- sioner and the auditing board until it was discovered that the land owners | ‘would not give a free right of way. 'l'he| last Legislature appropriated $200,000 for the river improvements. We can assist you in man: fortable and homelike.

Va., with- out him. p Mr. Bryan and Robert Rose, his secretary, got a train to Columbus, and from there to Pittsburg. They landeq in Pittsburg on Sunday morn- ing. Bryan went to the Duquesne Ho- tel. A lot of Democrats got wind of his arrival and went to the hotel to | see him, Mr. Bryan was {1l at ease. Finally he sent a boy out to find Albert Barr, | proprietor of the Pittsburg Post. Barr | took you went to the hotel. Mr. Bryan him to one side and said: “Will come to my room for a minute?” Baxr followed to the elevator, won- dering what great political secret he was to share. After they reached the | room Mr. Bryan closed the door and said: “Barr, you krow I missed my train | at Buffalo, and must get to Hunting- | ton in time to make a speech to-mor- | row morning.” “Yes,” said Barr. “Well, I wish you would lend me | $50. All my money is on the car. I haven’t got a cent with me.” Barr produced, Bryan caught his train, Barr got back t6 church in time for the sermon, and until this day the Pittsburg Democrats wonder what happened between Barr and Bryan on that Sunday morning.—Washington Post.

BARBAROUS SURGICAL OPERA- ’ TION For Cure of Plles Is not only intensely painful, dangerous to life and very expensive, but in the 1ight of modern medical research and since the discovery of the Pyramid Pile Cure, wkolly unnecessary. If you have any doubt on this point kindly read the following letter from one who knows that the claims regarding the merits of the Pyramid Pile Cure are borne out by facts: “For a long time I suffered with blind piles. They gave me so much pain and uneasiness that they almost disqualified me for doing anything. 1saw an ad in the Atlanta Journal of Pyramid Pile Cure and ordered a 50-cent box. I used them and they gave me relief; that en- couraged me and I bought another 50- cent box and they cured me.
